| ر_ | Caveolae | ||
|---|---|---|---|
Caveolae are caveolin coated vesicles. They are a type of lipid raft rich in cholesterol and sphingolipids and may be involved in cholesterol uptake by cells. | |||
| ح_ | Cisterna | ||
|---|---|---|---|
The cistern is a lumen or flat membranous space in the endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi apparatus. A Golgi bundle can contain anywhere from three to twenty cisternae, but most contain six cisternae. The Golgi cistern can be divided into four sections: conjugated, medial, forked, and network of the Golgi cistern. | |||

| ب_ | Drug Tolerance & Drug Synergy | ||
|---|---|---|---|
Drug Tolerance:Tolerance happens when a person becomes no longer responding to a drug in the way that he did at first. This can often lead to the person taking large amounts of the drug to achieve the same effect. Drug Synergy:An interaction that could be beneficial or harmful that occurs between two or more drugs that causes the total effect of the drugs to be greater than the sum of the individual effects of each drug. | |||

|---|---|---|---|---|
Exocytosis is the fusion of secretory vesicles with the plasma membrane and results in the discharge of vesicle content into the extracellular space and the incorporation of new proteins and lipids into the plasma membrane. | ||||
| س_ | endoplasmic reticulum | ||
|---|---|---|---|
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) , the transportation system of the eukaryotic cell, and has many other important functions such as protein folding | |||
| ش_ | Ensomembrane system | ||
|---|---|---|---|
Is a group of membranes and organelles in eukaryotic cells that works together to modify, package, and transport lipids and proteins. It includes the nuclear envelope, lysosomes, endosomes, the endoplasmic reticulum and golgi apparatus. | |||
G |

| ب_ | Glycosylation | ||
|---|---|---|---|
Glycosylation:is the attachment of carbohydrate side chains to proteins. Glycosylation is critical for a wide range of biological processes, including cell attachment to the extracellular matrix and protein–ligand interactions in the cell. Types of Glycosylation:N glycosylation or N-linked glycosylation: is the attachment of an oligosaccharide sugar molecule to a nitrogen atom in the asparagine residue of a protein molecule. O glycosylation or O-linked glycosylation: is the attachment of an oligosaccharide sugar molecule to the oxygen atom of serine or threonine residues in a protein molecule.

| ر_ | Hydroxylation | ||
|---|---|---|---|
Adding hydroxyl groups to hydrophobic drugs to increases their solubility, and making them easier to excrete from the body. | |||

| ض_ | lysosome | ||
|---|---|---|---|
A lysosome is a membrane-bound cell organelle that contains digestive enzymes. Lysosomes are involved with various cell processes. They break down excess or worn-out cell parts. They may be used to destroy invading viruses and bacteria | |||

| ح_ | Microsome | ||
|---|---|---|---|
The endoblsamic reticulum (ER) membranes can break into smaller fregment and form sealed vesicles These useful studying types of ER | |||
