Polyomaviridae
|
D027382 |
[A family of small, non-enveloped DNA viruses, infecting mainly MAMMALS.

|
Polyomavirus
|
D011120 |
[A genus of potentially oncogenic viruses of the family POLYOMAVIRIDAE. These viruses are normally present in their natural hosts as latent infections. The virus is oncogenic in hosts different from the species of origin.

|
Polyomavirus Infections
|
D027601 |
[Infections with POLYOMAVIRUS, which are often cultured from the urine of kidney transplant patients. Excretion of BK VIRUS is associated with ureteral strictures and CYSTITIS, and that of JC VIRUS with progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (LEUKOENCEPHALOPATHY, PROGRESSIVE MULTIFOCAL).

Polypharmacology
|
D064798 |
[The design or use of pharmaceutical agents that act on multiple targets or disease pathways.

|
Polypharmacy
|
D019338 |
[The use of multiple drugs administered to the same patient, most commonly seen in elderly patients. It includes also the administration of excessive medication. Since in the United States most drugs are dispensed as single-agent formulations, polypharmacy, though using many drugs administered to the same patient, must be differentiated from DRUG COMBINATIONS, single preparations containing two or more drugs as a fixed dose, and from DRUG THERAPY, COMBINATION, two or more drugs administered separately for a combined effect. (From Segen, Dictionary of Modern Medicine, 1992)

Polyphenols
|
D059808 |
[A large class of organic compounds having more than one PHENOL group.

|
Polyphloretin Phosphate
|
D011121 |
[A polymeric mixture of polyesters of phosphoric acid and phloretin. It blocks some cellular responses to prostaglandins.

|
Polyphosphates
|
D011122 |
[Linear polymers in which orthophosphate residues are linked with energy-rich phosphoanhydride bonds. They are found in plants, animals, and microorganisms.

|
Polyplacophora
|
D049916 |
[A class in the phylum MOLLUSCA comprised of flattened, elongated marine mollusks, commonly called chitons. They are unique in that they possess seven or eight separate shell plates.

|
Polyploidy
|
D011123 |
[The chromosomal constitution of a cell containing multiples of the normal number of CHROMOSOMES; includes triploidy (symbol: 3N), tetraploidy (symbol: 4N), etc.

Polypodiaceae
|
D029621 |
[The fern plant family of the order Polypodiales, class Filicopsida, division Pteridophyta, subkingdom TRACHEOPHYTA.

|
Polypodium
|
D032494 |
[A plant genus of the family POLYPODIACEAE. Members contain polypodoside.
] |
|
Polyporaceae
|
D011124 |
[A family of bracket fungi, order POLYPORALES, living in decaying plant matter and timber.
] |
|
Polyporales
|
D020072 |
[An order of fungi in the phylum BASIDIOMYCOTA having macroscopic basidiocarps. The members are characterized by their saprophytic activities as decomposers, particularly in the degradation of CELLULOSE and LIGNIN. A large number of species in the order have been used medicinally. (From Alexopoulos, Introductory Mycology, 4th ed, pp504-68)

|
Polyporus
|
D055492 |
[A genus of basidiomyceteous fungi in the family POLYPORACEAE found mostly on living trees or dead wood.

|
Polyprenols
|
D000081026 |
[Long chain isoprene compounds that include a hydroxyl group at the terminal carbon atom.
] |
|
Polypropylenes
|
D011126 |
[Propylene or propene polymers. Thermoplastics that can be extruded into fibers, films or solid forms. They are used as a copolymer in plastics, especially polyethylene. The fibers are used for fabrics, filters and surgical sutures.
] |
|
Polyproteins
|
D020815 |
[Proteins which are synthesized as a single polymer and then cleaved into several distinct proteins.
] |
|
Polyps
|
D011127 |
[Discrete abnormal tissue masses that protrude into the lumen of the DIGESTIVE TRACT or the RESPIRATORY TRACT. Polyps can be spheroidal, hemispheroidal, or irregular mound-shaped structures attached to the MUCOUS MEMBRANE of the lumen wall either by a stalk, pedunculus, or by a broad base.
] |
|
Polypyrimidine Tract-Binding Protein
|
D038941 |
[A RNA-binding protein that binds to polypyriminidine rich regions in the INTRONS of messenger RNAs. Polypyrimidine tract-binding protein may be involved in regulating the ALTERNATIVE SPLICING of mRNAs since its presence on an intronic RNA region that is upstream of an EXON inhibits the splicing of the exon into the final mRNA product.
