How can you use “glycoprotein” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
These and other reports suggest the CD34 glycoprotein is either down-regulated or modified in vitro to a form that is not reactive with the usual anti-CD34 antibodies [ 23].
The homodimeric transmembrane glycoprotein CD 105 (endoglin) is relatively specific for endothelial cells and is abundant with more than 500,000 copies per cell on HUVEC [ 24 ] . It is not clear, however, why they are CD59-positive MP that express CD105 and some that do not (Fig.
VEGF is a 45 kDA heparin-binding homodimeric glycoprotein with a predominant specificity to vascular endothelial cells [ 4 5 6 7 ] . Recent investigations demonstrate that VEGF increases vascular permeability [ 4 ] , endothelial cell proliferation in vitro [ 8 ] , and angiogenesis in vivo [ 9 ] . We have previously demonstrated that VEGF mRNA is upregulated in rat gastrocnemius muscle following 1 hour of acute submaximal treadmill exercise [ 10 ] , in dog gastrocnemius muscle following 1 hour of electrical stimulation [ 11 ] , and in human vastus lateralis following 30 min of one-legged knee extension exercise at 50% maximal capacity [ 12 ] . Other studies show similar upregulation of VEGF mRNA in chronically electrically stimulated rat skeletal muscle [ 13 14 ] , and in human vastus lateralis following 45 min of one-legged knee extension exercise [ 15 ] .
CEC = clinical events committee; CK-MB = creatine kinase-myocardial band; ECG = electrocardiography; MI = myocardial infarction; PURSUIT = Platelet Glycoprotein IIb/IIIa in Unstable Angina: Receptor Suppression Using Integrilin (Eptifibatide) Therapy.
Two secreted proteins or protein complexes are involved in sensing cell density [ 5 ] . Prestarvation factor (PSF) is a glycoprotein that is secreted when cells are growing and accumulates as an indicator of the ratio of cell density relative to the supply of food [ 6 7 ] . When the ratio of Dictyostelium cells to nutrients is above a certain threshold, PSF induces the expression of several early developmental genes including discoidin I, lysosomal enzymes, and some components of the cAMP pulsing system [ 8 9 ] . Once nutrients are depleted, PSF production declines and a second cell density-sensing pathway is activated.
