List of MeSH codes (A10)
List of MeSH codes (A10) refers to a comprehensive categorization within the Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) system, specifically focusing on the section designated as "A10". MeSH is a large controlled vocabulary used for indexing journal articles and books in the life sciences. It serves a dual purpose in the biomedical field: facilitating search and retrieval of biomedical information and serving as a standardized language for the communication of biomedical information. The A10 category encompasses tissues, cells, and substances of anatomy, with a particular focus on those relevant to the fields of cell biology and molecular biology.
Overview[edit | edit source]
The A10 category of MeSH codes is subdivided into various subcategories that cover a wide range of topics related to tissues and cells. These include specific types of cells (e.g., blood cells, stem cells), tissues (e.g., connective tissue, epithelium), and cellular and molecular entities that are significant in biomedical research and clinical practice. This categorization facilitates precise indexing and searching of literature in databases such as PubMed, enabling researchers, clinicians, and students to find relevant information efficiently.

Importance[edit | edit source]
The categorization of MeSH codes, particularly within the A10 section, plays a crucial role in the organization of biomedical information. It allows for the systematic arrangement of data related to cells, tissues, and anatomical substances, making it easier for researchers and healthcare professionals to access and utilize this information. The A10 category, with its focus on the fundamental building blocks of life, is essential for studies in genetics, pharmacology, pathology, and many other disciplines within the life sciences.
