Example sentences for: apoptotic

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

  • Cells were identified as apoptotic only when they were doubly labeled (Figure 6).

  • Apoptotic nuclei were detected using DAPI staining (1 μg/ml; 10 min) in cell cultures fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde, and analyzed via fluorescence microscopy to assess chromatin condensation and segregation.

  • 24 cells and primary mouse hepatocytes, through activation of the Fas receptor in a FasL-independent manner [ 19 25 ] . Moreover, GCDCA was demonstrated to activate both initiator and effector caspases, and that the apoptotic response can be blocked by Crm A, a caspase 8 inhibitor [ 25 ] . The mechanism by which bile acids stimulate the activation of Fas receptor remains unclear.

  • have demonstrated that spontaneously hypertensive rats(SHR) with symptoms of heart failure had significantly higher levels ofapoptotic myocytes than control myocytes [ 37 ] .When treated with an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor, thenumber of apoptotic cells in the SHR with symptoms of heart failurewas dramatically reduced to control levels; controls were SHR withoutsymptoms of heart failure [ 37 ] . Kajstura et al.have also reported that angiotensin II increased the percentageof apoptotic cells in isolated adult rat ventricular myocytes, andthis effect was mediated by AT-1 receptors [ 38 ] .Although ventricular function was not assessed in these studies,the observations raise the possibility that, like our findings withcarvedilol, the beneficial effect of ACE-inhibitors or AT-1 receptorblockers in heart failure may in part be attributed to an inhibitionof myocyte apoptosis with a resultant improvement in in vivo cardiacfunction, a concept that needs further study.

  • Analysis within each population reveals that, in control mice, 2.47 ± 0.65% of 2C, 0.32 ± 0.23% of S-phase, 2.26 ± 0.76% of 4C, and 0.44 ± 0.40% of 1C cells were apoptotic.
