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.

Definition:The amount of prolactin found in a specified volume of blood, the fluid that circulates through the heart, arteries, capillaries and veins carrying nutrients and oxygen to the body tissues and metabolites away from them. Prolactin is a peptide hormone which is secreted by the anterior pituitary and is involved in lactation, growth regulation for tissues including cells of the immune system, and possibly supression of apoptosis. A peptide hormone is a complex organic compound that contains carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and sulfur consisting of alpha-amino acids joined by peptide linkages, and that is produced in one part or organ of the body and initiates or regulates the activity of an organ or a group of cells in another part of the body.
