Galectin 4
|
D037541 |
[A galectin found in the small and large intestine and the stomach. It occurs as a homodimer with two 36-kDa subunits and is localized to sites of cell adhesion where it may play role in assembly of ADHERENS JUNCTIONS.

Galectins
|
D037161 |
[A class of animal lectins that bind specifically to beta-galactoside in a calcium-independent manner. Members of this class are distiguished from other lectins by the presence of a conserved carbohydrate recognition domain. The majority of proteins in this class bind to sugar molecules in a sulfhydryl-dependent manner and are often referred to as S-type lectins, however this property is not required for membership in this class.

Galega
|
D029881 |
[A plant genus of the family FABACEAE that contains galegine (GUANIDINES). Most of the other species have been reclassified to TEPHROSIA; a few to ASTRAGALUS PLANT; and INDIGOFERA.

Galium
|
D032061 |
[A genus of herbaceous annual and perennial plants in the family RUBIACEAE.

Gallamine Triethiodide
|
D005703 |
[A synthetic nondepolarizing blocking drug. The actions of gallamine triethiodide are similar to those of TUBOCURARINE, but this agent blocks the cardiac vagus and may cause sinus tachycardia and, occasionally, hypertension and increased cardiac output. It should be used cautiously in patients at risk from increased heart rate but may be preferred for patients with bradycardia. (From AMA Drug Evaluations Annual, 1992, p198)

Gallbladder
|
D005704 |
[A storage reservoir for BILE secretion. Gallbladder allows the delivery of bile acids at a high concentration and in a controlled manner, via the CYSTIC DUCT to the DUODENUM, for degradation of dietary lipid.
] |
|
Gallbladder Diseases
|
D005705 |
[Diseases of the GALLBLADDER. They generally involve the impairment of BILE flow, GALLSTONES in the BILIARY TRACT, infections, neoplasms, or other diseases.

|
Gallbladder Emptying
|
D016473 |
[A process whereby bile is delivered from the gallbladder into the duodenum. The emptying is caused by both contraction of the gallbladder and relaxation of the sphincter mechanism at the choledochal terminus.
] |
|
Gallbladder Neoplasms
|
D005706 |
[Tumors or cancer of the gallbladder.

|
Gallic Acid
|
D005707 |
[A colorless or slightly yellow crystalline compound obtained from nutgalls. It is used in photography, pharmaceuticals, and as an analytical reagent.

Gallionellaceae
|
D043372 |
[A genus of stalked, chemolithotrophic bacteria in the family GALLIONELLACEAE.
, A family of gram-negative bacteria in the order Nitrosomonadales, class BETAPROTEOBACTERIA. It contains a single genus Gallionella.

Gallium
|
D005708 |
[A rare, metallic element designated by the symbol, Ga, atomic number 31, and atomic weight 69.72.
] |
|
Gallium Isotopes
|
D005709 |
[Stable gallium atoms that have the same atomic number as the element gallium, but differ in atomic weight. Ga-71 is a stable gallium isotope.
] |
|
Gallium Radioisotopes
|
D005710 |
[Unstable isotopes of gallium that decay or disintegrate emitting radiation. Ga atoms with atomic weights 63-68, 70 and 72-76 are radioactive gallium isotopes.

|
Gallopamil
|
D005711 |
[Coronary vasodilator that is an analog of iproveratril (VERAPAMIL) with one more methoxy group on the benzene ring.
] |
|
Gallstones
|
D042882 |
[Solid crystalline precipitates in the BILIARY TRACT, usually formed in the GALLBLADDER, resulting in the condition of CHOLELITHIASIS. Gallstones, derived from the BILE, consist mainly of calcium, cholesterol, or bilirubin.
, Gallstones that are present in the COMMON BILE DUCT, but are usually formed in the GALLBLADDER.

|
Galphimia
|
D031582 |
[A plant genus of the family MALPIGHIACEAE. G. glauca is the source of 'Galphimia glauca extract' and contains 'galphimine B' and tetragalloylquinic acid.
