| Reil's ribbon | A band of white fibres originating from the gracile and cuneate nuclei and decussating in the lower medulla; thence it passes upward through the centre of the medulla oblongata, close to the median raphe; on entering the pons it spreads out laterally to form a flat band ascending over the dorsal border of the pontine nuclei; in the mesencephalon it passes over the dorsal border of the substantia nigra and is displaced laterally by the red nucleus; passing medial to the medial geniculate body, the bundle enters and terminates in the ventral posterior nucleus of the thalamus. Throughout their course, the fibres retain a somatotopic order such that those originating from the gracile nucleus and representing the lower extremity lie lateral to those originating in the cuneate nucleus and representing the arm. The medial lemniscus conveys somatic-sensory information involved in tactile discrimination (two-point discrimination), position sense, and vibration sense. Synonym: lemniscus medialis, medial fillet, Reil's band, Reil's ribbon. (05 Mar 2000) |

| ribbon | 1. A fillet or narrow woven fabric, commonly of silk, used for trimming some part of a woman's attire, for badges, and other decorative purposes. 2. A narrow strip or shred; as, a steel or magnesium ribbon; sails torn to ribbons. 3. Same as Rib-band. 4. Driving reins. 5. A bearing similar to the bend, but only one eighth as wide. 6. A silver. The blue ribbon, and The red ribbon, are phrases often used to designate the British orders of the Garter and of the Bath, respectively, the badges of which are suspended by ribbons of these colours. See Blue ribbon, under Blue. Ribbon fish. A tapeworm. A nemertean. Origin: OE. Riban, OF. Riban, F. Ruban, probably of German origin; cf. D. Ringband collar, necklace, E. Ring circle, and band Alternative forms: riband, ribband. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| ribbon arch | A thin, ribbon-shaped, rectangular orthodontic arch wire applied to the dental arch's so that its widest dimension is parallel to the labial or buccal surfaces of the teeth. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ribbon arch appliance | An appliance consisting of a rectangular wire inserted into a specially designed bracket attached to the labial and buccal surfaces of the teeth. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ribbon synapse | <biology, physiology> Ultrastructurally distinct type of synapse found in a variety of sensory receptor cells such as retinal photoreceptor cells, cochlear hair cells and vestibular organ receptors, as well as in a nonsensory neuron, the retinal bipolar cell. Unlike most neurons, these cells do not use regenerative action potentials but release transmitter in response to small graded potential changes. Ribbon synapses have different exocytotic machinery from conventional synapses in containing dense bars or ribbons anchored to the presynaptic membrane covered with a layer of synaptic vesices. The ribbons have been proposed to shuttle synaptic vesicles to exocytotic sites. (23 Aug 1998) |
| blind gut | <anatomy> A blind pouch-like commencement of the colon in the right lower quadrant of the abdomen at the end of the small intestine. The appendix is a diverticulum that extends off the caecum. (13 Nov 1997) |
| gut | 1. A narrow passage of water; as, the Gut of Canso. 2. An intenstine; a bowel; the whole alimentary canal; the enteron; (pl) bowels; entrails. 3. One of the prepared entrails of an animal, especially. Of a sheep, used for various purposes. See Catgut. 4. The sac of silk taken from a silkworm (when ready to spin its cocoon), for the purpose of drawing it out into a thread. This, when dry, is exceedingly strong, and is used as the snood of a fish line. Blind gut. See Caecum, . Origin: OE. Gut, got, AS. Gut, prob. Orig, a channel, and akin to geotan to pour. See FOUND to cast. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| gut-associated lymphoid tissue | <physiology> Peripheral lymphoid organ consisting of lymphoid tissue associated with the gut (Peyer's patches, tonsils, mesenteric lymph nodes and the appendix). It is especially rich in B-cells and is responsible for localised immunity to pathogens such as bacteria, viruses, and parasites. (20 Sep 2002) |
| postanal gut | An extension of the hindgut caudal to the point at which the anal opening is formed. Synonym: postcloacal gut, tailgut. (05 Mar 2000) |
| postcloacal gut | An extension of the hindgut caudal to the point at which the anal opening is formed. Synonym: postcloacal gut, tailgut. (05 Mar 2000) |
| preoral gut | The part of the embryonic foregut extending cephalad to the level of the oral plate and caudal to the pituitary diverticulum (Rathke's pouch). Synonym: preoral gut. (05 Mar 2000) |
| primitive gut | A flat sheet of intraembryonic endoderm that will change into a tubular gut due to the folding of embryonic body-head, tail and lateral body folds. Synonym: archenteron, celenteron, endodermal canal, subgerminal cavity. (05 Mar 2000) |
| endocrine cells of gut | Cells found throughout the lining of the gastrointestinal tract that contain regulatory peptide hormones and/or biogenic amines. The substances are located in secretory granules and act in an endocrine or paracrine manner. Some of these substances are also found in neurons in the gut. There are at least 15 different types of endocrine cells of the gut. Some take up amine precursors and have been called apud cells. However, most endocrine cells of the gut apparently have endodermal rather than neuroectodermal origin, so the relationship with apud cells is not clear. (12 Dec 1998) |
