  2. MUTYH - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MUTYH

    MUTYH has its locus on the short (p) arm of chromosome 1 (1p34.1), from base pair 45,464,007 to base pair 45,475,152 (45,794,835–45,806,142). The gene is composed of 16 exons and has a size of 546 amino acids [6] and is approximately 7.1kb. [7] The presence of disulfide crosslinking gives rise to a complex crystal structure of the MUTY-DNA. [8]

  3. Exocytosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exocytosis

    Exocytosis (/ ˌ ɛ k s oʊ s aɪ ˈ t oʊ s ɪ s / [1] [2]) is a form of active transport and bulk transport in which a cell transports molecules (e.g., neurotransmitters and proteins) out of the cell (exo-+ cytosis). As an active transport mechanism, exocytosis requires the use of energy to transport material.

  4. Loop electrical excision procedure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loop_electrical_excision...

    The loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP) is one of the most commonly used approaches to treat high grade cervical dysplasia (CIN II/III, HGSIL) and early stage cervical cancer discovered on colposcopic examination. In the UK, it is known as large loop excision of the transformation zone (LLETZ). It is considered a type of conization. [1]

  5. Transcellular transport - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transcellular_transport

    Secondary active transport is when one solute moves down the electrochemical gradient to produce enough energy to force the transport of another solute from low concentration to high concentration. [ citation needed ] An example of where this occurs is in the movement of glucose within the proximal convoluted tubule (PCT).

  6. Active transport - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_transport

    There are two types of active transport: primary active transport that uses adenosine triphosphate (ATP), and secondary active transport that uses an electrochemical gradient. This process is in contrast to passive transport , which allows molecules or ions to move down their concentration gradient, from an area of high concentration to an area ...

  7. Electrosurgery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrosurgery

    The surgeon uses a pointed or blade shaped electrode called the "active electrode" to make contact with the tissue and exert a tissue effect - vaporization, and its linear propagation called electrosurgical cutting, or the combination of desiccation and protein coagulation used to seal blood vessels for the purpose of Hemostasis.

  8. Surgery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surgery

    Surgery [a] is a medical specialty that uses manual and instrumental techniques to diagnose or treat pathological conditions (e.g., trauma, disease, injury, malignancy), to alter bodily functions (e.g., malabsorption created by bariatric surgery such as gastric bypass), to reconstruct or alter aesthetics and appearance (cosmetic surgery), or to remove unwanted tissues (body fat, glands, scars ...

  9. Program-specific information - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Program-specific_information

    The MPEG-2 specification does not specify the format of the CAT and NIT. PSI is carried in the form of a table structure. Each table structure is broken into sections. Each section can span multiple transport stream packets. On the other hand, a transport stream packet can also contain multiple sections with same PID. [1]
