What's the difference between vesicle and vesicula?
Vesicle
Definition:
(n.) A bladderlike vessel; a membranous cavity; a cyst; a cell.
(n.) A small bladderlike body in the substance of vegetable, or upon the surface of a leaf.
(n.) A small, and more or less circular, elevation of the cuticle, containing a clear watery fluid.
(n.) A cavity or sac, especially one filled with fluid; as, the umbilical vesicle.
(n.) A small convex hollow prominence on the surface of a shell or a coral.
(n.) A small cavity, nearly spherical in form, and usually of the size of a pea or smaller, such as are common in some volcanic rocks. They are produced by the liberation of watery vapor in the molten mass.

(8) This value may be compared to a Kd of 7.3 pM obtained by the same method for the interaction of DF-VIIa with TF1-263 reconstituted into phosphatidylcholine vesicles.
(9) This is interpreted to be a consequence of the adsorption of Ca2+ on the vesicle bilayers.
(10) The results suggest that AH5183 does not bind to the ACh transporter recognition site on the outside of the vesicle membrane, and thus it might inhibit allosterically.

(12) Interaction of viable macrophages with cationic particles at 37 degrees C resulted in their "internalization" within vesicles and coated pits and a closer apposition between many segments of plasmalemma than with neutral or anionic substances.
(13) The toxins preferentially attenuate a slow phase of KCl-evoked glutamate release which may be associated with synaptic vesicle mobilization.
(14) In vitro studies indicate that dendritic cells only process proteins for a short period of time, when the rate of synthesis of MHC products and content of acidic endocytic vesicles are high.
(15) The latter findings reinforce the concept that in pathologic states associated with cerebral oedema, pinocytotic vesicles fuse to form transendothelial channels which transport plasma proteins into brain.
(16) By contrast, techniques that involved collection of OM vesicles were successful in isolating OM of B. catarrhalis.
(17) It is thus probable that secondary lysosomes become part of the macrophage vesicle.
(18) The response is dose dependent for LPA concentrations from 10(-8) to 10(-3) M. Incubation of oocytes in LPA does not induce germinal vesicle breakdown.
(19) Caffeine and 6-methylaminopurine riboside (6-N-methyladenosine differentially inhibit uptake of radioactivity from adenosine and inosine, and thus the vesicles apparently possess seperate transport systems for uptake of radioactivity from purine nucleosides and from uridine.
(20) The mean length of the seminal vesicles was 2.98 cm.
Vesicula
Definition:
(n.) A vesicle.
Example Sentences:
(1) The present short paper deals with the weight of the male reproductive organs of wild-imported cynomolgus monkeys, including the testes, epididymides, ductus deferens, vesicula seminalis prostata, bulbo urethralis and penis.
(2) Sphingomyelin vesiculae, labeled with 67Ga with the help of bifunctional chelates, were shown to possess a high level of hyperfixation.
(3) Incontinentia pigmenti is a rare genodermatosis typically involving three stages: vesiculae, verrucous lesions, and hyperpigmentation.
(4) Both surface and intracytoplasmic vesiculae have been shown to appear in meningococcal cells, strains 132, 125, and 133 belonging, respectively, to serogroups A, B, and C, in the process of batch cultivation.
(5) Out of 27 cases of differentiated and notdifferentiated types of retinoblastoma synaptical lamelles surrounded by synaptical vesicula could be detected in 8 cases.
(6) Fructose reduction in bull's semen below 400.0 mg% and of citric acid below 500.0 mg% in case of negative data for inflammatory changes in vesiculae seminalis is a diagnostic symptom for disfunction of vesiculae seminalis.
(7) Peculiarities of the mechanism and conditions of pinocytosis vesicules formation in capillary endothelium are considered in relation to: 1) the size of a protein cluster which is formed from plasma proteins on the endotheliocyte plasma membrane surface, and initiates a caveole formation; 2) the value of intracapillary hydrostatic pressure providing energetics of the caveole transition in the vesicula and its comming off.
(8) The paired anlage develops from the epithelium of the ventral and dorsal diverticles of the 3rd pharyngeal pouch, and from the ectodermal vesicula cervicalis.
(9) Herpes Zoster is a viral disease of the skin and mucosa characterized by grouped vesicula eruptions and neuralgic pain along a peripheral nerve.
(10) This review considers how ectoderm (vesicula cervicalis) and endoderm (third pharyngeal pouch) contribute to the epithelial stroma of the thymus.
(11) The transport of free vesicula by cytoplasmic currents to the basal surface of an endoteliocyte results in exocytosis (which proceeds approximately 0.1 s) with a release of the vesicula surface free energy (approximately 10(-16) J).
(12) The latter according to Laplas' equation closes the caveole into the vesicula with the radius approximately 40 nm.
