Myofibroma
|
D047708 |
[A benign tumor that consists chiefly of fibrous CONNECTIVE TISSUE, with variable numbers of MUSCLE CELLS forming portions of the neoplasm (From Stedman's, 27th ed).
] |
|
Myofibromatosis
|
D018224 |
[A condition characterized by multiple formations of myofibromas (LEIOMYOMA).

|
Myofunctional Therapy
|
D020247 |
[Training or retraining of the buccal, facial, labial, and lingual musculature in toothless conditions; DEGLUTITION DISORDERS; TEMPOROMANDIBULAR JOINT DISORDERS; MALOCCLUSION; and ARTICULATION DISORDERS.

Myogenic Regulatory Factor 5
|
D051787 |
[A SKELETAL MUSCLE-specific transcription factor that contains a basic HELIX-LOOP-HELIX MOTIF. It plays an essential role in MUSCLE DEVELOPMENT.
] |
|
Myogenic Regulatory Factors
|
D018006 |
[A family of muscle-specific transcription factors which bind to DNA in control regions and thus regulate myogenesis. All members of this family contain a conserved helix-loop-helix motif which is homologous to the myc family proteins. These factors are only found in skeletal muscle. Members include the myoD protein (MYOD PROTEIN); MYOGENIN; myf-5, and myf-6 (also called MRF4 or herculin).
] |
|
Myogenin
|
D018008 |
[A myogenic regulatory factor that controls myogenesis. Myogenin is induced during differentiation of every skeletal muscle cell line that has been investigated, in contrast to the other myogenic regulatory factors that only appear in certain cell types.
] |
|
Myoglobin
|
D009211 |
[A conjugated protein which is the oxygen-transporting pigment of muscle. It is made up of one globin polypeptide chain and one heme group.
] |
|
Myoglobinuria
|
D009212 |
[The presence of MYOGLOBIN in URINE usually as a result of rhabdomyolysis.
] |
|
Myography
|
D009213 |
[The recording of muscular movements. The apparatus is called a myograph, the record or tracing, a myogram. (From Stedman, 25th ed)
] |
|
Myokymia
|
D020385 |
[Successive and rapid contractions of motor units associated with chronic nerve injury. The discharges arise from the peripheral aspects of regenerating nerves, and clinically impart a nearly continuous undulation of the body surface overlying the muscle. (Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, p1491)
] |
|
Myoma
|
D009214 |
[A benign neoplasm of muscular tissue. (Stedman, 25th ed)
] |
|
Myometrium
|
D009215 |
[The smooth muscle coat of the uterus, which forms the main mass of the organ.
] |
|
Myopathies, Nemaline
|
D017696 |
[A group of inherited congenital myopathic conditions characterized clinically by weakness, hypotonia, and prominent hypoplasia of proximal muscles including the face. Muscle biopsy reveals large numbers of rod-shaped structures beneath the muscle fiber plasma membrane. This disorder is genetically heterogeneous and may occasionally present in adults. (Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, p1453)
] |
|
Myopathies, Structural, Congenital
|
D020914 |
[A heterogeneous group of diseases characterized by the early onset of hypotonia, developmental delay of motor skills, non-progressive weakness. Each of these disorders is associated with a specific histologic muscle fiber abnormality.
] |
|
Myopathy, Central Core
|
D020512 |
[An inherited congenital myopathic condition characterized by weakness and hypotonia in infancy and delayed motor development. Muscle biopsy reveals a condensation of myofibrils and myofibrillar material in the central portion of each muscle fiber. (Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, p1452)
] |
|
Myopericytoma
|
D000077777 |
[Rare myofibroma-like perivascular soft tissue tumor, usually benign, characterized by concentric perivascular proliferation.
] |
|
Myopia
|
D009216 |
[A refractive error in which rays of light entering the EYE parallel to the optic axis are brought to a focus in front of the RETINA when accommodation (ACCOMMODATION, OCULAR) is relaxed. This results from an overly curved CORNEA or from the eyeball being too long from front to back. It is also called nearsightedness.
] |
|
Myopia, Degenerative
|
D047728 |
[Excessive axial myopia associated with complications (especially posterior staphyloma and CHOROIDAL NEOVASCULARIZATION) that can lead to BLINDNESS.
, Myopia that increases at an abnormally rapid rate or increases after maturity (Hofstetter et al, Dictionary of Visual Science and Related Clinical Terms, 5th ed).
] |
|
Myoporaceae
|
D031642 |
[A plant family of the order Scrophulariales, subclass Asteridae, class Magnoliopsida.
] |
|
Myoporum
|
D031643 |
[A plant genus of the family MYOPORACEAE. Members contain dehydrongaione, deisopropylngaione, dehydromyodesmone and other furanoid sesquiterpene essential oils. It is the source of Ngaio oil and ngaione.
