Tissue (Bioinformatics)

Section of an organ that consists of a largely homogenous population of cell types. Since many organs are multifunctional, they have developed highly specialized cell types to perform different functions. Identifying the section of an organ that is homogenous for a particular cell type ensures that the gene expression profiles extracted from those cells will accurately resemble the class of cells that make up the tissue.Section of an organ that consists of a largely homogenous population of cell types.

Tissue (Books)

A thin, protective sheet laid over an illustration.

Tissue (Breast Cancer)

A group or layer of cells that together perform a specific function.

Tissue (Cancer)

A group or layer of cells that together performs specific functions. For example, heart tissue, lung tissue etc.

Tissue (Drugs)

Crack Cocaine

Tissue (Gynecological)

Group or layer of cells that together perform specific functions.

Tissue (Gynecology)

Group or layer of cells that together perform specific functions.

Tissue (HIV and AIDs)

A collection of similar cells and the intercellular substances surrounding them. The four basic tissues in the body are epithelial, connective, muscle, and nerve tissue.

Tissue (Health)

Group or layer of cells that together perform specific functions.

Tissue (Hormone Replacement Therapy)

A tissue in medicine is not like a piece of tissue paper. It is a broad term that is applied to any group of cells that perform specific functions. A tissue in medicine need not form a layer. Thus,
* The bone marrow is a tissue;
* Connective tissue consists of cells that make up fibers in the framework supporting other body tissues; and
* Lymphoid tissue is the part of the body's immune system that helps protect it from bacteria and other foreign entities.

Tissue (Legal, Mesothelioma)

A collection of cells, united to perform a particular function.

Tissue (Paper)

Protective lightweight paper [less than 65 gsm] placed over artwork and also used to indicate corrections or standards/colour/type etc.

Tissue (Paper Products)

A general term indicating a class of papers which are characteristically gauzy in texture and, in some cases, fairly transparent. They may be glazed, unglazed, or creped, and are used for a variety of purposes. Examples of different types of tissue papers include sanitary grades such as toilet, facial, napkin, towels, wipes, and special sanitary papers. Desirable characteristics in these types of tissue papers are softness, strength, and freedom from lint. Other examples of tissue papers are decorative and laminated tissue papers and crepe papers, often used in gift wrapping and to decorate. Desirable characteristics here are appearance, strength, and durability. Tissue papers are divided into three major categories: At-Home (or Consumer), Away-from-Home (or Commercial & Industrial), and Specialty.

Tissue (Physical Geography)

A group of similar cells that are organized into a structure with a specific purpose.

Tissue (Pituitary)

A group of similar cells united to perform a specific function.

Tissue (Science)

A group of cells that are similar in structure organized to perform a specific function

Tissue (Weight Loss)

A collection of cells of the same or very similar type
