CLINICAL MEASUREMENT - ANNOTATIONS

The Clinical Measurement Ontology (CMO), Measurement Methods Ontology (MMO), and Experimental Condition Ontology (XCO) are currently being developed at the Rat Genome Database. For more information about these vocabularies please see Shimoyama et al. Three ontologies to define phenotype measurement data. Front Genet. 2012;3:87.

Term:absolute change in adipocyte free fatty acid secretion per unit volume

Accession:CMO:0001446 term browser browse the term
Definition:The difference, reported per unit volume, in the amount of free or non-esterified fatty acid released/secreted from a fat cell between two conditions, for example between the basal or baseline state and a stimulated state, such as occurs with administration of a hormone which stimulates lipolysis.
Comment:The term "absolute change" refers to the subtraction of one value from another, as opposed to a dissimilarity of two values expressed as a ratio or as a percentage. In this context it is not intended to necessarily imply the difference expressed as an absolute value |n|, that is, the numeric value of the difference without regard to its sign.
Synonyms:exact_synonym: absolute change in adipocyte free fatty acid release per unit volume;   absolute per volume change in adipocyte free fatty acid secretion
 related_synonym: absolute change in adipocyte NEFA release per unit volume;   absolute change in adipocyte NEFA secretion per unit volume;   absolute change in adipocyte non-esterified fatty acid release per unit volume;   absolute change in adipocyte non-esterified fatty acid secretion per unit volume;   adipocyte incremental NEFA secretion per unit volume;   adipocyte incremental free fatty acid secretion per unit volume
