glia, neuroglia, glial cells Explanation: Am besten einfach "glia". Wie der Name "Gliom" schon andeutet stellt man sich vor, dass dies aus den Gliazellen oder deren Vorläufern entsteht. Glia sind die Zellen im Gehirn (und allg. im Nervensystem), die nicht Nervenzellen sind sondern Halte- und Versorgungsfunktion für die Nervenzellen haben. Ich persönlich hätte auch nie "Stützgewebe" im deutschen Text geschrieben, um keine Verwechslung mit Knorpeln und sonstigem Bindegewebe zu bieten (das verstehe ICH unter Stützgewebe). Aus demselben Grund würde ich auch nicht "supporting cells" oder ähnliches schreiben. - Übrigens: ich bin eigentlich Biologe, habe lange übers Gehirn gearbeitet und weiß wovon ich rede. |

peer agreement (net): +2stroma Explanation: "Stroma" comes to mind in connection with tumours. "Stützgewebe" is given in Bunjes as "stroma" among other entries. Definition of "stroma": Stroma: The supportive framework of an organ (or gland or other structure), usually composed of connective tissue. The stroma is distinct from the parenchyma, which consists of the key functional elements of that organ. The stroma of the thyroid gland is the connective tissue that supports the lobules and follicles of the thyroid gland. The Greek word "stroma" means "anything spread out for sitting or lying upon," essentially a mat. The stroma in anatomy is thus the supporting tissue. http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:mcy0w1H... Hence: "... glioma (a brain tumour which arises from the stroma of the CNS [central nervous system]) ...". e.g.: TUMORS OF THE CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM ... Grossly, they show a mixture of solid and cystic areas. Microscopically, they are composed of sheets of squamous epithelial cells and keratin, set in a loose connective tissue stroma. http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:g_ORyuC... Gangliocytoma (Grade I) and Ganglioglioma (Grade I-II) • tumor composed mainly of mature ganglion cells and glial cells • non-neoplastic glial cells– gangliocytoma • neoplastic glial cells- ganglioglioma • mesenchymal stroma may be present http://brain101.info/Tumors_of_the_Nervous_System.pdf In adults, the most common tumours arise form the cells which comprise the supportive stroma of the CNS. Collectively, they are called gliomas. http://books.google.com/books?id=h7A74b_8x8cC&pg=PA72&lpg=PA... |
