• Agave salmiana — A massive and imposing species of succulent plant within the genus Agave, native to the central and southern regions of Mexico, commonly known as maguey pulquero. This gigantic plant is characterized by a huge rosette composed of long, extremely fleshy, dark green leaves, elegantly curved outward and armed with massive marginal teeth, being the primary species historically and currently used for producing the traditional Mexican fermented beverage known as pulque.
• Amiel — A proper surname or masculine given name of Hebrew origin, popularized within the European cultural space especially through Swiss and French lineages. In the universal history of culture, the name is indissolubly linked to the Swiss writer, philosopher, and poet Henri-Frédéric Amiel, famous for his monumental work 'Journal intime', a masterpiece of introspective psychological analysis and profound existential self-reflection.
• Amyelencephalus — A medical term from the field of teratology denoting a fetus or congenitally malformed organism structurally characterized by the total absence or severely impaired development of the spinal cord (amyelia) and the myelencephalon (embryonic medulla oblongata). This severe neurological anomaly is incompatible with life and is investigated within major neural tube defects.
• Amyelia — An extremely rare and severe congenital malformation within the neural tube defects spectrum, characterized by the total absence or complete developmental arrest of the spinal cord. This severe structural anomaly occurs during the first weeks of embryogenesis due to the failure of the posterior neuropore to close, being incompatible with extrauterine life and often associated with other major cranial malformations.
• Unmyelinated — Lacking a myelin sheath; a nerve fiber or axon devoid of the protective, insulating structural lipid layer. Amielinic (unmyelinated) fibers (such as type C fibers) are characterized by a significantly slower nerve impulse conduction velocity compared to myelinated ones, playing an essential functional role in transmitting dull pain sensations, temperature, and regulating autonomic nervous system connections.
