inhibition
81Mevalonate inhibition — is used to define the effects of medicines based on HMG CoA reductase enzyme inhibitors to control the products of the mevalonate pathway. This term addresses the effects of long term restriction of mevalonate production in cell membranes by the… …
82Suicide inhibition — Suicide inhibition, also known as suicide inactivation or mechanism based inhibition, is a form of irreversible enzyme inhibition that occurs when an enzyme binds a substrate analogue and forms an irreversible complex with it through a covalent… …
83Social inhibition — is a conscious or subconscious constraint by a person of behaviour of a social nature. The constraint may be in relation to behavior, appearance, or a subject matter for discussion, besides other matters. There are a number of reasons for social… …
84Depolarization-induced suppression of inhibition — (DSI) is the classical and original electrophysiological example of endocannabinoid function in the central nervous system. Prior to the demonstration that DSI was dependent on the cannabinoid CB1 receptor function, there was no way of producing… …
85Contact inhibition — is the natural process of arresting cell growth when two or more cells come into contact with each other. Oncologists use this property to distinguish between normal and cancerous cells. Cell lines used widely in animal cell culture laboratories… …
86Convective inhibition — A Skew T diagram with important features labeled Convective inhibition (CIN or CINH) is a numerical measure in meteorology that indicates the amount of energy that will prevent an air parcel from rising from the surface to the level of free… …
87Product inhibition — is a type of enzyme inhibition where the product of a enzyme reaction binds to the enzyme and inhibits its activity. [cite journal |author=Walter C, Frieden E. |title=The prevalence and significance of the product inhibition of enzymes… …
88Energie d'inhibition de la convection — Énergie d inhibition de la convection L Énergie d inhibition de la convection (EIC), ou freinage convectif, est l énergie qu il faut fournir à une parcelle d air humide pour qu elle entre en convection libre. Elle se calcule en Joule par… …
89feedback inhibition — Suppression of the activity of an enzyme by a product of the sequence of reactions in which the enzyme is participating. When the product accumulates in a cell beyond an optimal amount, it decreases its own production by inhibiting an enzyme… …
90zone of inhibition — in the disk diffusion test, the area in which an antimicrobial agent inhibits growth of the isolate being tested; beyond that area, the concentration of the agent in the medium is insufficient for inhibition of bacterial growth. See illustration …
