What's the difference between desquamate and desquamation?
Desquamate
Definition:
(v. i.) To peel off in the form of scales; to scale off, as the skin in certain diseases.
Example Sentences:
(1) Tretinoin (all-trans-retinoic acid) acts to normalize desquamation of follicular epithelium, promote drainage of comedones, and inhibit formation of new ones.
(2) Cellular necrosis and tubular desquamation also were more severe in this group.
(3) In this manuscript the epidemiologic, clinical, histopathologic, immunologic and etiologic aspects as well as possible therapeutic modalities for the management of hormone-mediated desquamative gingivitis are examined.
(4) In order for a stone to form, the following conditions would seem to be necessary; transient supersaturation of the saliva in Ca++ and PO4--, a pH greater than normal, intracellular precepitation of amorphous tricalcium phosphate which is transformed into crystalline hydroxyapatite and, then, the fixation of crystals on a "matrix" such as desquamated cells, fibrils and collagens.
(5) Transmission and scanning electron microscopy were used to study desquamated epithelial cells in the developing and mature dental plaque.
(6) In histopathological examination, necrosis, desquamation, large nuclei formation of the tubular epithelium, and tubular dilatation of the kidney and necrosis of the liver cells were observed in the treated groups.
(7) Since DG I belongs to the group of transmembrane desmosomal proteins that is believed to constitute the link between the intracellular parts of desmosomes of opposing cells, it is concluded that desmosomes may play an important role in plantar stratum corneum cell cohesion, and that degradation of desmosomes may be an important step in desquamation in plantar epidermis.
(8) Histologically, vascular lesions such as vacuolization, degeneration and desquamation of the endothelium and hyalinization and necrosis of the muscular coat predominated, whereas reparatory reactions were relatively sparse.
(9) The epithelial surface is covered with adherent masses composed of desquamated and destroyed epithelial cells and leukocytes impregnated with proteins and penetrated by pseudomycelium.
(10) Lesions more advanced than moderate pneumonia were complicated with desquamation, severe exudation, and necrosis.
(11) Patients with fever, polymorphous skin eruption, congested conjunctiva, reddened palms and soles, red lips and oral mucous membrane, and soft-tissue swelling of the peripheral extremities and who experience membranous desquamation of fingers and toes should be suspected of having mucocutaneous lymph node syndrome.
(12) The severity of epilation and desquamation in the field of the radiation port was scored weekly.
(13) Desquamation of acinar cell apical cytoplasm and release of cytoplasmic segments into the acinar lumen on the first day following induction of pancreatitis led to formation of duct-like tubular complexes.
(15) It is well known that spontaneous desquamation and corneocyte size can reflect respectively stratum corneum cohesiveness and epidermal cell proliferation.
(17) The syndrome is characterized by fever, hypotension, erythema of the skin, erythematous desquamation and multiple organ involvement.
(18) Twenty-two patients (12 acyclovir, 10 placebo) experienced erythema or desquamation or both during treatment with the cream.
(19) The epithelial surface is covered with adherent masses composed of desquamated and destroyed epithelial cells and leucocytes impregnated with proteinaceous fluid and penetrated by pseudomycelium.
(20) However, this protection did not extend to the ciliated epithelium of the trachea because serum antibody did not prevent desquamation of the trachea or significantly decrease viral yield from the trachea.
Desquamation
Definition:
(n.) The separation or shedding of the cuticle or epidermis in the form of flakes or scales; exfoliation, as of bones.
