Mo1<br />

An adhesive glycoprotein present on neutrophils and<br />

monocytes. It is also called Leu-CAM, which is an iC3b<br />

receptor and thus helps mediate monocyte functions that<br />

are complement-dependent.<br />

modulated dendritic cell<br />

A dendritic cell (DC) that induces anergy rather than<br />

activation of naïve T cells, and/or propagation of T reg<br />

cells. Interaction of DCs with T suppressor cells in vitro<br />

or culture in the presence of low GM-CSF, high IL10<br />

or TGF-β, or the presence of aspirin, corticosteroids, or<br />

cyclosporine A that interferes with NF-κβ signaling may<br />

lead to modulation. Referred to also as a tolerized or<br />

tolerogenic DC.<br />

modulation<br />

Refer to antigenic modulation.<br />

mofetumomab<br />

A mouse monoclonal antibody labeled with 99m Tc used as a<br />

diagnostic aid to ascertain the extent of disease and stage of<br />

patients with small cell lung cancers. It unites with 40-kD<br />

antigen present on numerous tumor cell types and also on<br />

selected normal cells.<br />

moesin<br />

During chemokine-induced lymphocyte polarization, the<br />

moesin cytoskeletal protein is important for the redistribution<br />

of adhesion molecules to the cellular uropod.<br />

molecular (DNA) typing (sequence-specific priming<br />

or SSP)<br />

A method that employs a primer with a single mismatch in<br />

the 3′ end that cannot be employed efficiently to extend a<br />

DNA strand because the enzyme Taq polymerase, during<br />

the PCR reaction, and especially in the first PCR cycles<br />

which are very critical, does not manifest 3′-5′ proofreading<br />

endonuclease activity to remove the mismatched nucleotide.<br />

If primer pairs are designed to have perfectly matched 3′<br />

ends with only a single allele or a single group of alleles and<br />

the PCR reaction is initiated under stringent conditions, a
