Cytokine Receptor gp130
|
D050822 |
[A cytokine receptor that contains extracellular FIBRONECTIN TYPE III DOMAINS which mediate its function through the formation of oligomeric complexes with itself, or with a variety of CYTOKINE RECEPTORS. It does not bind IL-6, but activates JANUS KINASES and STAT3 TRANSCRIPTION FACTOR.
, A circulating form of cytokine receptor gp130.

Cytokine Release Syndrome
|
D000080424 |
[A severe immune reaction characterized by excessive release of CYTOKINES. Symptoms include DYSPNEA; FEVER; HEADACHE; HYPOTENSION; NAUSEA; RASH; TACHYCARDIA; HYPOXIA; HYPERFERRITINEMIA, and MULTIPLE ORGAN FAILURE. It is associated with viral infections, sepsis, AUTOIMMUNE DISEASES and a variety of factors used in IMMUNOTHERAPY.

Cytokine TWEAK
|
D000074049 |
[A proteolytically-cleaved membrane glycoprotein and member of the TNF superfamily that is highly expressed in a variety of tissues including heart, pancreas, brain, and peripheral blood lymphocytes. The secreted extracellular form is a weak inducer of APOPTOSIS for some cell types and a ligand for the FN14 RECEPTOR. It mediates activation of NF-KAPPA-B and promotes ANGIOGENESIS and proliferation of ENDOTHELIAL CELLS, as well as expression of cytokines involved in INFLAMMATION.

Cytokine-Induced Killer Cells
|
D055612 |
[Mononuclear leukocytes that have been expanded in CELL CULTURE and activated with CYTOKINES such as INTERLEUKIN-2 to produce large numbers of highly cytotoxic cells.
, Mononuclear leukocytes that have be expanded in CELL CULTURE and activated by co-culturing with cells that express CYTOKINES such as INTERLEUKIN-2 to produce large numbers of highly cytotoxic cells.

|
Cytokines
|
D016207 |
[Non-antibody proteins secreted by inflammatory leukocytes and some non-leukocytic cells, that act as intercellular mediators. They differ from classical hormones in that they are produced by a number of tissue or cell types rather than by specialized glands. They generally act locally in a paracrine or autocrine rather than endocrine manner.

Cytokinesis
|
D048749 |
[The process by which the CYTOPLASM of a cell is divided.

|
Cytokinins
|
D003583 |
[Plant hormones that promote the separation of daughter cells after mitotic division of a parent cell. Frequently they are purine derivatives.

Cytomegalovirus
|
D003587 |
[Type species of CYTOMEGALOVIRUS.
, A genus of the family HERPESVIRIDAE, subfamily BETAHERPESVIRINAE, infecting the salivary glands, liver, spleen, lungs, eyes, and other organs, in which they produce characteristically enlarged cells with intranuclear inclusions. Infection with Cytomegalovirus is also seen as an opportunistic infection in AIDS.

|
Cytomegalovirus Infections
|
D003586 |
[Infection with CYTOMEGALOVIRUS, characterized by enlarged cells bearing intranuclear inclusions. Infection may be in almost any organ, but the salivary glands are the most common site in children, as are the lungs in adults.
] |
|
Cytomegalovirus Retinitis
|
D017726 |
[Infection of the retina by cytomegalovirus characterized by retinal necrosis, hemorrhage, vessel sheathing, and retinal edema. Cytomegalovirus retinitis is a major opportunistic infection in AIDS patients and can cause blindness.
] |
|
Cytomegalovirus Vaccines
|
D022482 |
[Vaccines or candidate vaccines used to prevent infection with CYTOMEGALOVIRUS.

|
Cytopathogenic Effect, Viral
|
D003588 |
[Visible morphologic changes in cells infected with viruses. It includes shutdown of cellular RNA and protein synthesis, cell fusion, release of lysosomal enzymes, changes in cell membrane permeability, diffuse changes in intracellular structures, presence of viral inclusion bodies, and chromosomal aberrations. It excludes malignant transformation, which is CELL TRANSFORMATION, VIRAL. Viral cytopathogenic effects provide a valuable method for identifying and classifying the infecting viruses.

Cytophagaceae
|
D041964 |
[A family of gram-negative, gliding bacteria in the order Cytophagales, class Cytophagia. They are found in SOIL and SEA WATER.

Cytophagocytosis
|
D057899 |
[The engulfment and degradation of cells by other cells.

|
Cytophotometry
|
D003592 |
[A method for the study of certain organic compounds within cells, in situ, by measuring the light intensities of the selectively stained areas of cytoplasm. The compounds studied and their locations in the cells are made to fluoresce and are observed under a microscope.

Cytoplasm
|
D003593 |
[The part of a cell that contains the CYTOSOL and small structures excluding the CELL NUCLEUS; MITOCHONDRIA; and large VACUOLES. (Glick, Glossary of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 1990)

Cytoplasmic Dyneins
|
D056445 |
[Dyneins that are responsible for intracellular transport, MITOSIS, cell polarization, and movement within the cell.
