    Epidermal¹ growth factor - a cytokine that stimulates² epithelial cell proliferation.

    Epinephrine - a neurotransmitter substance found at all adrenergic synapses³ (nor epinephrine or epinephrine). It is the most common neurotransmitter in the nervous system, in particular at ganglion cells of the sympathetic nervous system.

    Epitaxy - the initiation⁴ of crystalformation in a saturated⁵ solution by providing a template against which crystal can form. There are specific sites on collagen molecules⁶ which appear to function as templates against which hydroxyapatite crystals form.

    Epithelial attachment⁷- the cuff⁸ of junctional epithelium which joins the gingival sulcus epithelium to the enamel⁹ of the tooth. Apical migration¹⁰ of the epithelium down onto the cementum may occur due to ageing or periodontal disease. Loss of attachment produces a periodontal pocket and a new habitat for anaerobic¹¹ oral bacteria.

    Epithelium - a layer of cells which forms alining for a tube or the covering for an organ or the whole body.

    Eucaryote - a cell in which the genetic¹² material is confined to the nucleus¹³, in distinction to a procaryote in which the genetic material is dispersed¹⁴ throughout the cell. Other distinctions of eucarytoic cells are the presence of organelles such as the golgi apparatus¹⁵, endoplasmic reticulum, lysosomes and mitochondria

    Exocrine glands¹⁶ - the secretion¹⁷ passes intoa duct like sweat, saliva¹⁸ and mucous¹⁹.

    Extinct - a plant or animal species may entirely²⁰ cease to exist. Recent examples are the dodo, a large flightless bird which used to live as recently as two hundred years ago, on the island of Mauritius. There are today many species of birds, flowers, fish, insects, large mammals, including certain types of whale, which are threatened with extinction²¹, most as a result of human activity. Happily, the smallpox²² virus is about to become extinct

    Extra cellular²³ matrix - the supporting surrounding material of a cell including ground substance and fibres.

    Extrinsic²⁴ fibres - refers to those fibres of cementum which are continuous with periodontal ligament fibres. Extrinsic fibres have been trapped in cementum during its formation in order to anchor them. see also intrinsic fibres, and sharpey's fibres.

    Exudate - the fluid plasma²⁵ which leaks out of blood vessels²⁶ due to an increase in capillary²⁷ permeability. The increased permeability, is caused by histamine, and bradykinin, which are released in response to tissue damage. The formation of an exudate is the first step in the process of inflammation.
