How can you use “arix” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
We now find that we are unable to identify ARIX mutations underlying classic CFEOM in either sporadic cases or in individuals from CFEOM1 families.
This finding is consistent with our prediction that, compared to ARIX, the genes mutated in CFEOM1 may have a more restricted function in the development of nIII and that their expression may actually be regulated by ARIX.
This study revealed absence of the superior division of the oculomotor nerve and the corresponding central caudal and medial nIII subnuclei, and marked abnormalities of the levator palpebrae superioris and superior rectus muscles [ 4 ] . These findings suggest that while ARIX is necessary for both nIII and nIV development, the CFEOM1 genes may be necessary for the development of only these two specific nIII subnuclei.
ARIX, which encodes a transcription factor critical to nIII and nIV development in mice and zebrafish [ 22 23 ] , was recently identified as the FEOM2 gene mutated in affected members of CFEOM2 families [ 5 ] . It was unknown, however, if classic CFEOM may also result from mutations in this gene.
In addition, to further define the spectrum of human ARIX mutations, we identified all CFEOM1 families consistent with linkage to FEOM2 or sporadic individuals with classic CFEOM and determined that none harbored mutations in the ARIX gene.
