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

In a different cDNA array study, also recently published, 16 genes were identified to be regulated by at least 2-fold one week after sciatic axotomy [ 8 ] . Of these, seven were also identified by our study.
GTPcylo, IES-JE, CCHL2A and VGF all show a marked increase in the number of labeled neurons while SNAP25 and the 5HT3 receptor show a decrease in numbers and intensity of labeled DRG neurons following axotomy (Figure 4).
The pattern of expression of four genes within the DRG (Lysozyme, PACAP, MET-1 and SNAP25) were further quantified across a time course of 1, 3, 7 and 14 days post axotomy by triplicate northern slot blot (Figure 5).
This raises the possibility that numbers of different genes may be regulated together by common changes in signal transduction and transcription induced by the injury, and contribute in this way to the coordinated changes that constitute the axotomy response.
Twenty four genes detected by the arrays as being present in the DRG and displaying up-, down- or no regulation three days after sciatic nerve axotomy were analyzed by replicate quantitative slot blot (Figure 2) and Northern blot analysis (Figure 3).
