How can you use “astrocytes” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
This selection for increased Tag expression makes sense given the low growth rate of primary mouse astrocytes and the ability of Tag to decrease the cell cycle time [ 11 ] and increase saturation density [e.g.
The RU486 effect is not likely to be mediated through PR in the Lifr -/- astrocyte precursors, since astrocytes have low levels of PR's that are only detectable in females [ 76 ] .
The names of the cell lines designate the number of days the primary neonatal astrocytes were cultured prior to infection.
Similarly, inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors (IP3R) are intracellular calcium release channels involved in diverse signaling pathways and are required for the activation of T lymphocytes [ 33 ] . Tat (also implicated as a neurotoxin) has been shown to release calcium from inositol 1,4, 5-trisphosphate (IP3) receptor-regulated stores in neurons and astrocytes causing premature apoptosis [ 34 ] . Down-regulation of IP3 may therefore contribute to viral latency and maintenance of an anti-apoptotic state in cells.

DHA present in the brain can be formed from precursors in the liver or astrocytes, and intact DHA passes the blood brain barrier via selective transport mechanisms [ 26 ] . These data confirm that diets did result in actual increases in the brain of the appropriate FAs and set the stage for interpreting transcriptional responses observed in each organ.
