GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)

Portuguese translation:englobar, englobado (s); envolver, envolvido (s)

English to Portuguese translations [PRO]
Medical - Medical: Pharmaceuticals / imunodeficiência, células, doenças
English term or phrase: encompass, encompassed
No fragmento abaixo:

"Because the investigators considered macrophages (Kupffer cells) and endothelial cells to have a common biologic function, phagocytosis, they proposed that they be encompassed as a system, the reticuloendothelial system."

Eu poderia traduzir por "incorporadas" nesse caso?

É para um texto que fala de doenças relacionadas à imunidade. Esse capítulo em particular fala do Sistema Fagocitário Mononuclear (Sistema Monócito-Macrófago).

Obrigada!

Asker: Não sei... Acho que aí se perde um pouco a ideia de reunir (e classificar) os dois tipos de células em um grupo. Em todo caso, obrigada pela sua contribuição. Ainda estou pensando em qual seria a melhor solução.

abarcar


Explanation:
Não é uma palavra muito usada nos meus círculos, mas parece que capta perfeitamente o sentido de "encompass".

"1 Abraçar, cingir com os braços. 2 Abranger, compreender, conter em si."

"Preciso de uma palavra que traga a ideia de reunir (os dois tipos de células) em um grupo"

Acho que "engloba" capta isso bem. Do Michaelis:
"1 Reunir em um todo."

Asker: Isso mesmo. O parágrafo que citei já diz no que ou como (as células) estão "encompassed": "as a system, the reticuloendothelial system". Obrigada.


Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
agree  Marjolein Snippe: incluidos seems to fit best in the sentence (although some context seems to be missing: encompassed in what?)
