biological_process
|
A biological process is the execution of a genetically-encoded biological module or program. It consists of all the steps required to achieve the specific biological objective of the module. A biological process is accomplished by a particular set of molecular functions carried out by specific gene products (or macromolecular complexes), often in a highly regulated manner and in a particular temporal sequence. |
GO:0065007
|
biological regulation
|
Any process that modulates a measurable attribute of any biological process, quality or function. |
GO:0065008
|
regulation of biological quality
|
Any process that modulates a qualitative or quantitative trait of a biological quality. A biological quality is a measurable attribute of an organism or part of an organism, such as size, mass, shape, color, etc. |
GO:0032501
|
multicellular organismal process
|
Any biological process, occurring at the level of a multicellular organism, pertinent to its function. |
GO:0042592
|
homeostatic process
|
Any biological process involved in the maintenance of an internal steady state. |
GO:0003008
|
system process
|
A multicellular organismal process carried out by any of the organs or tissues in an organ system. An organ system is a regularly interacting or interdependent group of organs or tissues that work together to carry out a biological objective. |
GO:0048871
|
multicellular organismal-level homeostasis
|
Any process involved in the maintenance of an internal steady state at the level of the multicellular organism. |
GO:0060249
|
anatomical structure homeostasis
|
A homeostatic process involved in the maintenance of an internal steady state within a defined anatomical structure of an organism, including control of cellular proliferation and death and control of metabolic function. An anatomical structure is any biological entity that occupies space and is distinguished from its surroundings. Anatomical structures can be macroscopic such as a carpel, or microscopic such as an acrosome. |
GO:0001894
|
tissue homeostasis
|
A homeostatic process involved in the maintenance of an internal steady state within a defined tissue of an organism, including control of cellular proliferation and death and control of metabolic function. |
GO:0003013
|
circulatory system process
|
An organ system process carried out by any of the organs or tissues of the circulatory system. The circulatory system is an organ system that moves extracellular fluids to and from tissue within a multicellular organism. |
GO:0008015
|
blood circulation
|
The flow of blood through the body of an animal, enabling the transport of nutrients to the tissues and the removal of waste products. |
GO:0003018
|
vascular process in circulatory system
|
A circulatory process that occurs at the level of the vasculature. |
GO:0043114
|
regulation of vascular permeability
|
Any process that modulates the extent to which blood vessels can be pervaded by fluid. |
GO:0035633
|
maintenance of blood-brain barrier
|
Maintaining the structure and function of the blood-brain barrier, thus ensuring specific regulated transport of substances (e.g. macromolecules, small molecules, ions) into the brain, and out of the brain into the blood circulation. |
GO:0043116
|
negative regulation of vascular permeability
|
Any process that reduces the extent to which blood vessels can be pervaded by fluid. |
GO:1905603
|
regulation of blood-brain barrier permeability
|
Any process that modulates blood-brain barrier permeability, the quality of the blood-brain barrier that allows for a controlled passage of substances (e.g. macromolecules, small molecules, ions) into and out of the brain. |
GO:1905604
|
negative regulation of blood-brain barrier permeability
|
Any process that decreases blood-brain barrier permeability, the quality of the blood-brain barrier that allows for a controlled passage of substances (e.g. macromolecules, small molecules, ions) into and out of the brain. |
