How can you use “adenocarcinomas” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

Somatic mutations in the tyrosine kinase domains of two ERBB genes, epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and HER2, have been found in a proportion of lung adenocarcinomas [1,2,3,4].
In order to produce such a model for studying the effects of Pten mutations in breast cancer, we have crossed Wnt-1 TG mice to mice heterozygous for Pten . Mice transgenic for MMTV- Wnt-1 and heterozygous for Pten developed mammary adenocarcinomas much earlier than mice carrying either lesion alone.
These squamous lesions were usually multi-focal and located both at the periphery of the adenocarcinomas and in other mammary glands free of adenocarcinomas.
In three additional patients (case histories not described here) with lung adenocarcinomas who improved but subsequently progressed on therapy with either gefitinib or erlotinib, we examined DNA from tumor specimens obtained during disease progression.
It can thus be concluded that cytological examination of sputum specimens is able to detect adenocarcinomas at an early stage albeit with low sensitivity (15%).
