What's the difference between parenchyma and parenchymal?
Parenchyma
Definition:
(n.) The soft celluar substance of the tissues of plants and animals, like the pulp of leaves, to soft tissue of glands, and the like.

(19) Studies in severe combined immunodeficient mice that were engrafted with selected lymphocyte subpopulations show that B cells, and hence anti-Cryptococcus antibodies, are not necessary for the CD4+ T cell-dependent responses that isolate and subsequently destroy this opportunistic pathogen in the lung parenchyma.
(20) Although approximately 29% of the inoculum was recovered from the hepatic parenchyma of the sheep, F. hepatica was found in only one of six inoculated deer.
Parenchymal
Definition:
(a.) Of, pertaining to, or consisting of, parenchyma.
Example Sentences:
(1) These findings suggest that aerosolization of ATP into the cystic fibrosis-affected bronchial tree might be hazardous in terms of enhancement of parenchymal damage, which would result from neutrophil elastase release, and in terms of impaired respiratory lung function.
(2) It is concluded that the present method for demonstration of aryl sulphatase activity is not well suited for microscopical identification of lysosomes in rat liver parenchymal cells.
(3) Ventricular, parenchymal, and extraaxial fluid abnormalities were recorded for each case.
(4) Most damage was to liver; changes were observed both in individual parenchymal cells and in tissue organization.
(6) Parallel sections were analyzed for possible parenchymal changes associated with the BBB breakdown.
(7) Twenty-one thoracoscopic resections of pulmonary parenchymal lesions were performed on 15 patients.
(8) To study renal parenchymal damage in the percutaneous procedures, plasma renin activities (PRA) were compared in 54 cases after six months.
(9) That the opposite was observed in our study indicates that the increase in Pst(L), which results from parenchymal hysteresis, offsets any dimensional decrease in upstream airways due to airways hysteresis.

(11) The current magnetic resonance imaging system with computerized image processing is a sensitive and simple method for evaluation of subtle parenchymal changes of the brain.
(12) Pineal serotonin is stored in equilibrium in two compartments, i.e., the parenchymal cells and the adrenergic nerves and thus is most probably reduced in both sites.
(13) Since catalase is not normally released by cells, a likely explanation for its presence in high concentrations in normal ELF is that it is released by lung inflammatory and parenchymal cells onto the epithelial surface of the lower respiratory tract during their normal turnover and collects there due to the slow turnover of ELF.
(14) History, physical examination, and chest roentgenograms did not suggest the presence of parenchymal pulmonary disease.
(15) The properties of the recognition sites for alpha 2-macroglobulin (alpha 2-macroglobulin receptor; low density lipoprotein receptor-related protein) and beta-migrating very low density lipoprotein (beta-VLDL) (remnant receptor) on rat parenchymal cells were directly compared to analyze whether both substrates are recognized and internalized by the same receptor system.
(16) Mice administered chloroform in corn oil displayed a significant degree of diffuse parenchymal degeneration (5 of 10 males and 1 of 10 females) and mild to moderate early cirrhosis (5 of 10 males and 9 of 10 females); significant pathological lesions were not observed in the animals administered corn oil without chloroform nor in mice receiving chloroform in 2% Emulphor.
