Discitis
|
D015299 |
[Inflammation of an INTERVERTEBRAL DISC or disk space which may lead to disk erosion. Until recently, discitis has been defined as a nonbacterial inflammation and has been attributed to aseptic processes (e.g., chemical reaction to an injected substance). However, recent studies provide evidence that infection may be the initial cause, but perhaps not the promoter, of most cases of discitis. Discitis has been diagnosed in patients following discography, myelography, lumbar puncture, paravertebral injection, and obstetrical epidural anesthesia. Discitis following chemonucleolysis (especially with chymopapain) is attributed to chemical reaction by some and to introduction of microorganisms by others.

Discoidin Domain
|
D000070822 |
[A protein domain originally identified in DISCOIDINS. It occurs in a variety of unrelated proteins in multicellular organisms, where it recognizes different ligands with distinct biological functions. Structurally, it consists of two antiparallel beta sheets that form a "jellyroll" configuration stabilized by two intramolecular disulfide bonds. Sequence differences within this module determine ligand specificity; in DISCOIDIN DOMAIN RECEPTORS, it binds to FIBRILLAR COLLAGENS and NON-FIBRILLAR COLLAGENS.

|
Discoidin Domain Receptor 1
|
D000070819 |
[A discoidin domain receptor for FIBRILLAR COLLAGEN that functions in a variety of cellular processes. For example, it regulates cell attachment to the EXTRACELLULAR MATRIX, remodeling of the extracellular matrix, CELL MIGRATION; CELL DIFFERENTIATION; CELL PROLIFERATION; and CELL SURVIVAL.
] |
|
Discoidin Domain Receptor 2
|
D000070820 |
[A discoidin domain receptor for FIBRILLAR COLLAGEN and non-fibrillar COLLAGEN TYPE X. It functions in many cellular and developmental processes that include remodeling of the EXTRACELLULAR MATRIX; CELL MIGRATION; CELL DIFFERENTIATION; and CELL PROLIFERATION; as well as OSTEOGENESIS and the maturation of CHONDROCYTES.
] |
|
Discoidin Domain Receptors
|
D000070818 |
[Receptor tyrosine kinases that bind COLLAGENS. They are characterized by the presence of extracellular DISCOIDIN DOMAINS that activate SIGNAL TRANSDUCTION PATHWAYS in response to collagen binding. They may also be cleaved by MATRIX METALLOPROTEINASES to mediate cell interactions with the EXTRACELLULAR MATRIX.

|
Discoidins
|
D000070821 |
[Lectins that were identified in DICTYOSTELIUM DISCOIDEUM. They bind to GALACTOSE and are involved in cell-substratum adhesion, maintenance of morphology during aggregation, and spore formation.

Discrete Subaortic Stenosis
|
D021922 |
[A type of constriction that is caused by the presence of a fibrous ring (discrete type) below the AORTIC VALVE, anywhere between the aortic valve and the MITRAL VALVE. It is characterized by restricted outflow from the LEFT VENTRICLE into the AORTA.

Discs Large Homolog 1 Protein
|
D000074288 |
[A signaling adaptor protein that contains three PDZ DOMAINS; an SH3 DOMAIN; and a GUANYLATE KINASE-like C-terminal region. It has an essential role in animal development and recruits ion channels, receptors, and signaling molecules to discrete plasma membrane regions of polarized cells in the HEART ATRIA MYOCARDIUM. It functions in the assembly of ADHERENS JUNCTIONS and regulation of CELL PROLIFERATION; synaptogenesis, LYMPHOCYTE ACTIVATION; and controls expression of KV4 POTASSIUM CHANNELS to regulate excitability of CARDIAC MYOCYTES.
