Neorickettsia sennetsu
|
D041101 |
[A species of gram-negative bacteria in the genus NEORICKETTSIA, family ANAPLASMATACEAE, causing Sennetsu fever and found in the FAR EAST and SOUTHEAST ASIA.

Neosartorya
|
D055326 |
[A genus of ascomycetous fungi in the family Trichocomaceae, order EUROTIALES. Some species can cause opportunistic infections in humans, similar to its anamorph ASPERGILLUS.

|
Neospora
|
D018688 |
[A genus of protozoan parasites of the subclass COCCIDIA. Its species are parasitic in dogs, cattle, goats, and sheep, among others. N. caninum, a species that mainly infects dogs, is intracellular in neural and other cells of the body, multiplies by endodyogeny, has no parasitophorous vacuole, and has numerous rhoptries. It is known to cause lesions in many tissues, especially the brain and spinal cord as well as abortion in the expectant mother.

Neostigmine
|
D009388 |
[A cholinesterase inhibitor used in the treatment of myasthenia gravis and to reverse the effects of muscle relaxants such as gallamine and tubocurarine. Neostigmine, unlike PHYSOSTIGMINE, does not cross the blood-brain barrier.

Neostriatum
|
D017072 |
[The phylogenetically newer part of the CORPUS STRIATUM consisting of the CAUDATE NUCLEUS and PUTAMEN. It is often called simply the striatum.

|
Neotyphodium
|
D055328 |
[The anamorphic form of the fungus EPICHLOE. Many Neotyphodium species produce ERGOT ALKALOIDS.

Neovascularization, Pathologic
|
D009389 |
[A pathologic process consisting of the proliferation of blood vessels in abnormal tissues or in abnormal positions.

|
Neovascularization, Physiologic
|
D018919 |
[The development of new BLOOD VESSELS during the restoration of BLOOD CIRCULATION during the healing process.

Nepal
|
D009390 |
[Country located in southern Asia, between China and India. The capital is Kathmandu.

Nepeta
|
D027521 |
[A genus of the LAMIACEAE family. It is known for its mild calming effect and for the way cats are attracted to the aroma.

|
Nephelometry and Turbidimetry
|
D009391 |
[Chemical analysis based on the phenomenon whereby light, passing through a medium with dispersed particles of a different refractive index from that of the medium, is attenuated in intensity by scattering. In turbidimetry, the intensity of light transmitted through the medium, the unscattered light, is measured. In nephelometry, the intensity of the scattered light is measured, usually, but not necessarily, at right angles to the incident light beam.

Nephrectomy
|
D009392 |
[Excision of kidney.

|
Nephritis
|
D009393 |
[Inflammation of any part of the KIDNEY.
] |
|
Nephritis, Hereditary
|
D009394 |
[A group of inherited conditions characterized initially by HEMATURIA and slowly progressing to RENAL INSUFFICIENCY. The most common form is the Alport syndrome (hereditary nephritis with HEARING LOSS) which is caused by mutations in genes for TYPE IV COLLAGEN and defective GLOMERULAR BASEMENT MEMBRANE.
] |
|
Nephritis, Interstitial
|
D009395 |
[Inflammation of the interstitial tissue of the kidney. This term is generally used for primary inflammation of KIDNEY TUBULES and/or surrounding interstitium. For primary inflammation of glomerular interstitium, see GLOMERULONEPHRITIS. Infiltration of the inflammatory cells into the interstitial compartment results in EDEMA, increased spaces between the tubules, and tubular renal dysfunction.

Nephroblastoma Overexpressed Protein
|
D055514 |
[A CCN protein family member found at high levels in NEPHROBLASTOMA cells. It is found both intracellularly and in the EXTRACELLULAR MATRIX and may play a role in the regulation of CELL PROLIFERATION and EXTRACELLULAR MATRIX synthesis.
] |
|
Nephrocalcinosis
|
D009397 |
[A condition characterized by calcification of the renal tissue itself. It is usually seen in distal RENAL TUBULAR ACIDOSIS with calcium deposition in the DISTAL KIDNEY TUBULES and the surrounding interstitium. Nephrocalcinosis causes RENAL INSUFFICIENCY.
] |
|
Nephrogenic Fibrosing Dermopathy
|
D054989 |
[A chronic, acquired, idiopathic, progressive eruption of the skin that occurs in the context of RENAL FAILURE. It is sometimes accompanied by systemic fibrosis. The pathogenesis seems to be multifactorial, with postulated involvement of circulating fibrocytes. There is a strong association between this disorder and the use of gadolinium-based contrast agents.
