Brit.

/ˌplʌɪəˈtɪpɪk/, U.S.

/ˌplaɪəˈtɪpɪk/

Origin: Formed within English, by derivation. Etymons: pleio- comb. form, type n., -ic suffix.

Etymology: < pleio- comb. form + type n. + -ic suffix, after e.g. homotypic adj. (compare quot. 1971¹).

Biology.

Relating to or designating a process whereby a single stimulus can elicit multiple unrelated responses from a living cell; acting through such a process.

1971 Nature New Biol. 7 Apr. 162/1 Gordon Tomkins has proposed that mammalian cells may have a ‘pleiotypic’ control system to coordinate changes in the overall levels of synthesis and degradation of RNA and proteins.

1971 A. Hershko et al. in Nature New Biol. 18 Aug. 206/2 [We] suggest that, in a variety of mammalian cell types, a constant set of metabolically unrelated biochemical reactions respond coordinately when changes in the environment affect cellular growth. Because of the multiplicity and diversity of the reactions involved, we refer to the entire regulatory programme as the ‘pleiotypic response’.

1986 Molecular & Cell Biol. 6 1179 These results do not support the hypothesis that Ap₄A is a positive pleiotypic activator that modulates DNA replication.

1993 Cancer Res. 53 3405/1 AMP prevents phospholipase activation as one of its pleiotypic effects on growth.
