| repetitive DNA | <molecular biology> Nucleotide sequences in DNA that are present in the genome as numerous copies. Originally identified by the C0t_ value derived from kinetic studies of DNA renaturation. These sequences are not thought to code for polypeptides. One class of repetitive DNA, termed highly repetitive DNA, is found as short sequences, 5-100 nucleotides, repeated thousands of times in a single long stretch. It typically comprises 3-10% of the genomic DNA and is predominantly satellite DNA. Another class, which comprises 25-40% of the DNA and termed moderately repetitive DNA, usually consists of sequences about 150 to 300 nucleotides in length dispersed evenly throughout the genome and includes Alu sequences and transposons. (18 Nov 1997) |
| repetitive sequences, nucleic acid | Nucleotide sequences present in multiple copies in the genome. They include direct, inverted, tandem, and terminal repeat sequences and the alu family repeat (named for the restriction endonuclease cleavage enzyme alu I). (12 Dec 1998) |
| highly repetitive DNA | <molecular biology> The fraction of the eukaryotic genome which consists of a short sequence of nucleotides that is repeated thousands of times all over the genome. Highly repetitive DNA is very similar to satellite DNA. (09 Oct 1997) |
| DNA, repetitive | DNA sequences that are repeated in the genome. (12 Dec 1998) |
| ACTH stimulation test | A test for adrenal cortical function; ACTH administered by continuous intravenous infusion, or intramuscularly, evokes an increase in plasma cortisol in normal persons; in adrenal cortical insufficiency, the expected increase in plasma cortisol is limited or nonexistent.

| Ganzfeld stimulation | Illumination of the entire retina in the electroretinogram. Origin: Ger. Ganzfeld, whole field (05 Mar 2000) |
| percutaneous stimulation | Electrical stimulation of the peripheral nerves or spinal cord by the application of electrodes to the skin. (05 Mar 2000) |
| growth hormone stimulation test | <investigation> A test which measures the level of human growth hormone in response to the administration of the amino acid arginine. This test measures the ability of the pituitary gland to secrete growth hormone. Normal values in children are: 48 ng/ml. Normal values in men are 10 ng/ml. Normal values in women are 15 ng/ml. This test is used to evaluate infants with growth retardation. It may also be part of an evaluation for a pituitary tumour. Failure of arginine to raise growth hormone levels may indicate hypopituitarism or dwarfism. (27 Sep 1997) |
| photic stimulation | The use of a flickering light at various frequencies to influence the pattern of the occipital electroencephalogram and also to activate latent abnormalities. (05 Mar 2000) |
| self-stimulation | 1. <neurology> A technique for electrical stimulation of peripheral nerves, spinal cord, or brain by the patient himself to relieve pain. 2. <psychology> Central stimulation, usually electrical, of the brain, which is administered by the animal's pressing a bar or switch; the stimulation may result in negative or positive reinforcement. (12 Dec 1998) |
| stimulation | 1. The act of stimulating, or the state of being stimulated. 2. <physiology> The irritating action of various agents (stimuli) on muscles, nerves, or a sensory end organ, by which activity is evoked; especially, the nervous impulse produced by various agents on nerves, or a sensory end organ, by which the part connected with the nerve is thrown into a state of activity; irritation. Origin: L. Stimulatio: cf. F. Stimulation. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| subliminal stimulation | Stimulation at an intensity below that where a differentiated response can be elicited. (12 Dec 1998) |
| dorsal column stimulation | Electrical stimulation, either percutaneously or by direct application of electrodes to the dorsal columns of the spinal cord. (05 Mar 2000) |
| thyroid-stimulating hormone stimulation test | TSH stimulating test, a test that measures the uptake of 131I in the thyroid gland before and after administration of thyroid-stimulating hormone; useful in distinguishing primary hyperthyroidism (increased TSH serum concentration) from secondary or tertiary hyperthyroidism (low TSH serum concentrations).
