All individuals in MeSH

Label Id Description
Desensitization, Immunologic D003888 [Immunosuppression by the administration of increasing doses of antigen. Though the exact mechanism is not clear, the therapy results in an increase in serum levels of allergen-specific IMMUNOGLOBULIN G, suppression of specific IgE, and an increase in suppressor T-cell activity. ]
Desensitization, Psychologic D003887 [A behavior therapy technique in which deep muscle relaxation is used to inhibit the effects of graded anxiety-evoking stimuli. ]
Desert Climate D003889 [A type of climate characterized by insufficient moisture to support appreciable plant life. It is a climate of extreme aridity, usually of extreme heat, and of negligible rainfall. (From McGraw-Hill Dictionary of Scientific and Technical Terms, 4th ed) ]
Desflurane D000077335 [A fluorinated ether that is used as a volatile anesthetic for maintenance of general anesthesia. ]
Desiccation D003890 [Removal of moisture from a substance (chemical, food, tissue, etc.). ]
Designer Drugs D015198 [Drugs designed and synthesized, often for illegal street use, by modification of existing drug structures (e.g., amphetamines). Of special interest are MPTP (a reverse ester of meperidine), MDA (3,4-methylenedioxyamphetamine), and MDMA (3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine). Many drugs act on the aminergic system, the physiologically active biogenic amines. ]
Desipramine D003891 [A tricyclic dibenzazepine compound that potentiates neurotransmission. Desipramine selectively blocks reuptake of norepinephrine from the neural synapse, and also appears to impair serotonin transport. This compound also possesses minor anticholinergic activity, through its affinity to muscarinic receptors. ]
Deslanoside D003892 [Deacetyllanatoside C. A cardiotonic glycoside from the leaves of Digitalis lanata. ]
Desmidiales D058114 [An order of mostly unicellular, microscopic, freshwater algae that have highly symmetrical and varied shapes. ]
Desmin D003893 [An intermediate filament protein found predominantly in smooth, skeletal, and cardiac muscle cells. Localized at the Z line. MW 50,000 to 55,000 is species dependent. ]
Desmocollins D051187 [A group of desmosomal cadherins with cytoplasmic tails that are divergent from those of classical CADHERINS. Their intracytoplasmic domains bind PLAKOGLOBIN; PLAKOPHILINS; and DESMOPLAKINS. ]
Desmoglein 1 D051183 [A desmosomal cadherin that is an autoantigen in the acquired skin disorder PEMPHIGUS FOLIACEUS. ]
Desmoglein 2 D051301 [A CALCIUM-dependent adhesion molecule of DESMOSOMES that also plays a role in embryonic STEM CELL proliferation. ]
Desmoglein 3 D051184 [A desmosomal cadherin that is an autoantigen in the acquired skin disorder PEMPHIGUS VULGARIS. ]
Desmogleins D051182 [A group of desmosomal cadherins with cytoplasmic tails that resemble those of classical CADHERINS. ]
Desmoplakins D051180 [Desmoplakins are cytoskeletal linker proteins that anchor INTERMEDIATE FILAMENTS to the PLASMA MEMBRANE at DESMOSOMES. ]
Desmoplastic Small Round Cell Tumor D058405 [A rare, aggressive soft tissue sarcoma that primarily affects adolescents and young adults. It is most commonly found in the abdomen. ]
Desmosine D003895 [A rare amino acid found in elastin, formed by condensation of four molecules of lysine into a pyridinium ring. ]
Desmosomal Cadherins D051181 [A single-pass transmembrane glycoproteins that mediate CALCIUM-dependent CELL ADHESION and are core components of DESMOSOMES. ]
Desmosomes D003896 [A type of junction that attaches one cell to its neighbor. One of a number of differentiated regions which occur, for example, where the cytoplasmic membranes of adjacent epithelial cells are closely apposed. It consists of a circular region of each membrane together with associated intracellular microfilaments and an intercellular material which may include, for example, mucopolysaccharides.
