Anions

D000838 |
[Negatively charged atoms, radicals or groups of atoms which travel to the anode or positive pole during electrolysis.

|
Aniridia
|
D015783 |
[A congenital abnormality in which there is only a rudimentary iris. This is due to the failure of the optic cup to grow. Aniridia also occurs in a hereditary form, usually autosomal dominant.

|
Anisakiasis
|
D017129 |
[Infection with roundworms of the genus ANISAKIS. Human infection results from the consumption of fish harboring roundworm larvae. The worms may cause acute NAUSEA; VOMITING; or penetrate into the wall of the DIGESTIVE TRACT where they give rise to EOSINOPHILIC GRANULOMA in the STOMACH; INTESTINES; or the OMENTUM.

|
Anisakis
|
D017163 |
[A genus of nematodes of the superfamily ASCARIDOIDEA. Its organisms are found in the stomachs of marine animals and birds. Human infection occurs by ingestion of raw fish that contain larvae.

Aniseikonia
|
D000839 |
[A condition in which the ocular image of an object as seen by one eye differs in size and shape from that seen by the other.
] |
|
Anisocoria
|
D015875 |
[Unequal pupil size, which may represent a benign physiologic variant or a manifestation of disease. Pathologic anisocoria reflects an abnormality in the musculature of the iris (IRIS DISEASES) or in the parasympathetic or sympathetic pathways that innervate the pupil. Physiologic anisocoria refers to an asymmetry of pupil diameter, usually less than 2mm, that is not associated with disease.

Anisoles
|
D000840 |
[A group of compounds that are derivatives of methoxybenzene and contain the general formula R-C7H7O.

|
Anisometropia
|
D015858 |
[A condition of an inequality of refractive power of the two eyes.
] |
|
Anisomycin
|
D000841 |
[An antibiotic isolated from various Streptomyces species. It interferes with protein and DNA synthesis by inhibiting peptidyl transferase or the 80S ribosome system.
] |
|
Anisotropy
|
D016880 |
[A physical property showing different values in relation to the direction in or along which the measurement is made. The physical property may be with regard to thermal or electric conductivity or light refraction. In crystallography, it describes crystals whose index of refraction varies with the direction of the incident light. It is also called acolotropy and colotropy. The opposite of anisotropy is isotropy wherein the same values characterize the object when measured along axes in all directions.

|
Anistreplase
|
D016255 |
[An acylated inactive complex of streptokinase and human lysine-plasminogen. After injection, the acyl group is slowly hydrolyzed, producing an activator that converts plasminogen to plasmin, thereby initiating fibrinolysis. Its half-life is about 90 minutes compared to 5 minutes for TPA; (TISSUE PLASMINOGEN ACTIVATOR); 16 minutes for UROKINASE-TYPE PLASMINOGEN ACTIVATOR and 23 minutes for STREPTOKINASE. If treatment is initiated within 3 hours of onset of symptoms for acute myocardial infarction, the drug preserves myocardial tissue and left ventricular function and increases coronary artery patency. Bleeding complications are similar to other thrombolytic agents.

Ankle
|
D000842 |
[The region of the lower limb between the FOOT and the LEG.
] |
|
Ankle Brachial Index
|
D055109 |
[An alternative to the ankle-brachial index.
, Comparison of the BLOOD PRESSURE between the BRACHIAL ARTERY and the POSTERIOR TIBIAL ARTERY. It is a predictor of PERIPHERAL ARTERIAL DISEASE.
] |
|
Ankle Fractures
|
D064386 |
[Fractures of any of the bones of the ANKLE.
] |
|
Ankle Injuries
|
D016512 |
[Harm or hurt to the ankle or ankle joint usually inflicted by an external source.
] |
|
Ankle Joint
|
D000843 |
[The joint that is formed by the inferior articular and malleolar articular surfaces of the TIBIA; the malleolar articular surface of the FIBULA; and the medial malleolar, lateral malleolar, and superior surfaces of the TALUS.
, The joint that is formed between the TIBIA and FIBULA held together by ligaments.

|
Ankyloglossia
|
D000072676 |
[A severe congenital restriction of TONGUE movement, resulting from fusion or adherence of the tongue to the floor of the mouth. In partial ankyloglossia (tongue-tie) the LINGUAL FRENUM is abnormally short, or is attached too close to the tip of the tongue. OMIM: 106280
] |
|
Ankylosis
|
D000844 |
[Fixation and immobility of a joint.
] |
|
Ankyrin Repeat
|
D017089 |
[Protein motif that contains a 33-amino acid long sequence that often occurs in tandem arrays. This repeating sequence of 33-amino acids was discovered in ANKYRIN where it is involved in interaction with the anion exchanger (ANION EXCHANGE PROTEIN 1, ERYTHROCYTE). Ankyrin repeats cooperatively fold into domains that mediate molecular recognition via protein-protein interactions.
] |
|
Ankyrins
|
D017487 |
[A family of membrane-associated proteins responsible for the attachment of the cytoskeleton. Erythrocyte-related isoforms of ankyrin attach the SPECTRIN cytoskeleton to a transmembrane protein (ANION EXCHANGE PROTEIN 1, ERYTHROCYTE) in the erythrocyte plasma membrane. Brain-related isoforms of ankyrin also exist.
