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

  • Chess and coworkers have shown that transforming growth factor-α and hepatocyte growth factor increase the phosphorylation of p44/p42 MAPK in H441 cells [ 23 ] . Epidermal growth factor, which binds to the same receptor as transforming growth factor-α, increases SP-A content in human fetal lung [ 24 ] . Hepatocyte growth factor has also been shown to upregulate the synthesis of SP-A in rat type II cells [ 25 ] . Thus, phosphorylation of p44/42 MAPK may be involved in the up-regulation of SP-A gene expression, results consistent with our observation that inhibition of basal levels of p44/42 MAPK phosphorylation may decrease SP-A gene expression.

  • Basal levels of phosphotyrosine-containing protein were detected in all clones analyzed (lanes 1,4,7, and 10).

  • Each pair of wells was assayed for reporter protein activity and clones demonstrating basal levels of activity in the DMSO treated sample and high levels in the GS-E sample were further expanded for additional testing.

  • Strikingly, however, coactivator binding to the heterodimer complex was decreased below the basal level in the presence of both ligands.

  • This suggests that basal expression of MAdCAM-1, is IL-10 independent, while cytokine stimulated MAdCAM-1 is modulated by IL-10.
