De Lange Syndrome
|
D003635 |
[A syndrome characterized by growth retardation, severe MENTAL RETARDATION, short stature, a low-pitched growling cry, brachycephaly, low-set ears, webbed neck, carp mouth, depressed nasal bridge, bushy eyebrows meeting at the midline, hirsutism, and malformations of the hands. The condition may occur sporadically or be associated with an autosomal dominant pattern of inheritance or duplication of the long arm of chromosome 3. (Menkes, Textbook of Child Neurology, 5th ed, p231)

De Quervain Disease
|
D053684 |
[Stenosing tenosynovitis of the abductor pollicis longus and extensor pollicis brevis tendons in the first dorsal wrist compartment. The presenting symptoms are usually pain and tenderness at the radial styloid. The cause is almost always related to OVERUSE INJURY or is associated with RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS.

Deamino Arginine Vasopressin
|
D003894 |
[A synthetic analog of the pituitary hormone, ARGININE VASOPRESSIN. Its action is mediated by the VASOPRESSIN receptor V2. It has prolonged antidiuretic activity, but little pressor effects. It also modulates levels of circulating FACTOR VIII and VON WILLEBRAND FACTOR.

Deanol

D003642 |
[An antidepressive agent that has also been used in the treatment of movement disorders. The mechanism of action is not well understood.

Death
|
D003643 |
[Irreversible cessation of all bodily functions, manifested by absence of spontaneous breathing and total loss of cardiovascular and cerebral functions.

Death Certificates
|
D003644 |
[Official records of individual deaths including the cause of death certified by a physician, and any other required identifying information.
] |
|
Death Domain
|
D000071459 |
[A conserved protein interaction domain of the death domain superfamily that is structurally similar to the DEATH EFFECTOR DOMAIN and CASPASE RECRUITMENT DOMAIN. Death domains bind each other to form oligomers and occur on DEATH DOMAIN RECEPTORS, where they are required for APOPTOSIS signaling and non-apoptotic functions.
] |
|
Death Domain Receptor Signaling Adaptor Proteins
|
D053418 |
[Intracellular signaling adaptor proteins that contain DEATH EFFECTOR DOMAINS and bind to the cytoplasmic DEATH DOMAIN region found on DEATH DOMAIN RECEPTORS. Many of the proteins in this class take part in intracellular signaling involving TUMOR NECROSIS FACTOR RECEPTORS.
] |
|
Death Domain Superfamily
|
D000071458 |
[A family of structurally-related protein interaction domains characterized by 6-helical closed bundle fold, with Greek key topology and an internal pseudo two-fold symmetry. Death-like domains occur in many proteins that are essential for APOPTOSIS, including CASPASE RECRUITMENT DOMAIN CONTAINING PROTEINS and DEATH DOMAIN RECEPTORS.
] |
|
Death Effector Domain
|
D000071461 |
[A homotypic protein interaction module of the death domain superfamily that is composed of a bundle of six alpha-helices. The death effector domain shares sequence and structural similarities with the DEATH DOMAIN and CASPASE RECRUITMENT DOMAIN. It occurs in many proteins with essential functions in APOPTOSIS.

Death, Sudden
|
D003645 |
[The abrupt cessation of all vital bodily functions, manifested by the permanent loss of total cerebral, respiratory, and cardiovascular functions.
] |
|
Death, Sudden, Cardiac
|
D016757 |
[Sudden suspension of cardiac activity that is usually due to ARRHYTHMIA, in contrast to heart attack (MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION) which occurs due to blockage. The sudden suspension of cardiac activity generally requires RESUSCITATION.
, Unexpected rapid natural death due to cardiovascular collapse within one hour of initial symptoms. It is usually caused by the worsening of existing heart diseases. The sudden onset of symptoms, such as CHEST PAIN and CARDIAC ARRHYTHMIAS, particularly VENTRICULAR TACHYCARDIA, can lead to the loss of consciousness and cardiac arrest followed by biological death. (from Braunwald's Heart Disease: A Textbook of Cardiovascular Medicine, 7th ed., 2005)

|
Death-Associated Protein Kinases
|
D064550 |
[A family of calcium/calmodulin-dependent PROETIN-SERINE-THREONINE KINASES. They are ubiquitously expressed in adult and embryonic mammalian tissues, and their functions are tightly related to the early stages of eukaryotic programmed cell death.
] |
|
Debaryomyces
|
D055165 |
[A genus of ascomycetous yeast in the family Debaryomycetaceae, order SACCHAROMYCETALES and phylum ASCOMYCOTA. Debaryomyces fungi are budding yeasts commonly found in environment and used in food industry. Debaryomyces hansenii (formerly Candida famata) is a salt-tolerant marine species sometimes involved in INVASIVE CANDIDIASIS and CANDIDEMIA.

Debridement
|
D003646 |
[The removal of foreign material and devitalized or contaminated tissue from or adjacent to a traumatic or infected lesion until surrounding healthy tissue is exposed. (Dorland, 27th ed)
