neurosecretory cell (medicine) and ectrotic (medicine)


neurosecretory cell (medicine)


neurosecretory cell
Cells that have properties both of electrical activity, carrying impulses and a secretory function, releasing hormones into the bloodstream. In a sense, they are behaving in the same way as any chemically signalling neuron, except that the target is the blood (and remote tissues), not another nerve or post synaptic region.


ectrotic (medicine)


ectrotic
<medicine> Having a tendency to prevent the development of anything, especially of a disease.

Origin: Gr. For abortion; out + to wound, cause mischief to.
