  2. Mean arterial pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mean_arterial_pressure

    In medicine, the mean arterial pressure (MAP) is an average calculated blood pressure in an individual during a single cardiac cycle. [1] Although methods of estimating MAP vary, a common calculation is to take one-third of the pulse pressure (the difference between the systolic and diastolic pressures ), and add that amount to the diastolic ...

  3. Microtubule-associated protein - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microtubule-associated_protein

    In cell biology, microtubule-associated proteins (MAPs) are proteins that interact with the microtubules of the cellular cytoskeleton. MAPs are integral to the stability of the cell and its internal structures and the transport of components within the cell.

  4. Blood pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_pressure

    A simple view of the hemodynamics of systemic arterial pressure is based around mean arterial pressure (MAP) and pulse pressure. Most influences on blood pressure can be understood in terms of their effect on cardiac output, [77] systemic vascular resistance, or arterial stiffness (the inverse of arterial compliance). Cardiac output is the ...

  5. Mitogen-activated protein kinase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitogen-activated_protein...

    A mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK or MAP kinase) is a type of serine/threonine-specific protein kinases involved in directing cellular responses to a diverse array of stimuli, such as mitogens, osmotic stress, heat shock and proinflammatory cytokines.

  6. Gene mapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gene_mapping

    There are two distinctive mapping approaches used in the field of genome mapping: genetic maps (also known as linkage maps) [7] and physical maps. [3] While both maps are a collection of genetic markers and gene loci, [8] genetic maps' distances are based on the genetic linkage information, while physical maps use actual physical distances usually measured in number of base pairs.

  7. Gene expression profiling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gene_expression_profiling

    In the field of molecular biology, gene expression profiling is the measurement of the activity (the expression) of thousands of genes at once, to create a global picture of cellular function. These profiles can, for example, distinguish between cells that are actively dividing, or show how the cells react to a particular treatment.

  8. Mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitogen-activated_protein...

    Mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase (also known as MAP2K, MEK, MAPKK) is a dual-specificity kinase enzyme which phosphorylates mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK). ...

  9. Physical mapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_mapping

    Physical map is a technique used in molecular biology to find the order and physical distance between DNA base pairs by DNA markers. [1] It is one of the gene mapping techniques which can determine the sequence of DNA base pairs with high accuracy.
