| cell polarity | 1. <cell biology> In epithelial cells the differentiation of apical and basal specialisations. In many epithelia the apical and baso lateral regions of plasma membrane differ in lipid and protein composition and are isolated from one another by tight junctions. The apical membrane may, for example: be the only region where secretory vesicles fuse or have a particular ionic pumping system. 2. A motile cell must have some internal polarity in order to move in one direction at a time: a region in which protrusion will occur (the front) must be defined. Locomotory polarity may be associated with the pericentriolar microtubule organising centre and can be perturbed by drugs that interfere with microtubule dynamics. (26 Mar 1998) |

| polarity | <physics> Literally having poles (like a magnet), but used to describe cells that have one or more axes of symmetry. <cell biology> In epithelial cells, the polarity meant is between apical and baso lateral regions, in moving cells, having a distinct front and rear. Some cells seem to show multiple axes of polarity (which will hinder forward movement). (18 Nov 1997) |
| polarity of translation | Decrease in the synthesis of proteins specified by genes distal to the operator and to the site of a nonsense, frameshift, deletion or insertion mutation in an operon. A mutation which produces polarity is called a polar mutation or a polarity mutation. (12 Dec 1998) |
| segment polarity gene | <molecular biology> A segmentation gene, responsible for specifying anterior posterior polarity within individual embryonic segments. In Drosophila, there are at least 10 such genes, for example gooseberry. (18 Nov 1997) |
| neuronal polarity | Distribution of specific functions to discrete cellular domains: for example axons and dendrites that have different molecular composition, morphology and ultrastructure and perform different functions. (18 Nov 1997) |
| egg polarity gene | A gene whose product distribution in the egg determines the anterior posterior axis of subsequent development. Best characterised in Drosophila: See: bicoid, maternal effect gene. (18 Nov 1997) |
| absolute terminal innervation ratio | The number of motor endplates divided by the number of terminal axons related to them. (05 Mar 2000) |
| accommodative convergence-accommodation ratio | The amount of convergence (measured in prism diopters of convergence) divided by the amount of accommodation (measured in diopters) required to direct both eyes upon an object. (05 Mar 2000) |
| A/G ratio | <abbreviation> Albumin-globulin ratio. (05 Mar 2000) |
| albumin-globulin ratio | The ratio of albumin to globulin in the serum or in the urine in kidney disease; the normal ratio in the serum is approximately 1.55. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ALT:AST ratio | The ratio of serum alanine aminotransferase to serum aspartate aminotransferase; elevated serum levels of both enzymes characterise hepatic disease; when both levels are abnormally elevated and the ALT:AST ratio is greater than 1.0, severe hepatic necrosis or alcoholic hepatic disease is likely; when the ratio is less than 1.0, an acute non-alcoholic hepatic condition is favoured. (05 Mar 2000) |
| amylase-creatinine clearance ratio | A test for the diagnosis of acute pancreatitis; it is determined by measuring amylase and creatinine in serum and urine in apparently healthy individuals the renal clearance of amylase is less than 5% that of creatinine; in acute pancreatitis the ratio is said to be greater than 0.05 or 5%. (05 Mar 2000) |
| aspect ratio | <radiobiology> In toroidal geometry, the ratio of the major diameter (total width of the torus) to the minor diameter (width of a slice taken through one side of the ring). In inertial-confinement fusion, aspect ratio refers to the ratio of a fuel pellet's radius to its wall thickness. (09 Oct 1997) |
| at/gc ratio | <molecular biology> The ratio of adenine-thymine base pairs to guanine-cytosine base pairs on a DNA molecule. (09 Oct 1997) |
| basic reproductive rate, ratio | <epidemiology> See Reproductive Ratio. (05 Dec 1998) |
