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

2. The highest density of fibers and cell bodies containing neurokinin was generally observed in the dorsal part of the human brainstem.
3. a single brain death examination demonstrating a lack of cortical and brainstem function in conjunction with a confirmatory nuclear medicine brain flow scan demonstrating absence of cerebral blood flow.
1. There is a widespread distribution of immunoreactive structures containing neurokinin in the human brainstem.
Thus, the anti-NKB antibody (IHC 7357) showed the following crossreactivities: 100% for NKB, 2% for physalaemin, 1% for eledoisin, 0.6% for kassinin, 0.2% for substance P, 0.1% for NKA and 0% for neuropeptide K. Moreover, in the nuclei of the human brainstem in which NKB was observed, the density of the immunoreactivity for NKB was lesser than that found in the same nuclei for NKA (see and compare Figs.
Thus, the differences found in the distribution of both neuroactive substances in the human brainstem could be due to the intraneuronal segregation transport of the peptides and/or the different processing of the precursor [see [ 31 ] ]. Another possibility could be that the immunoreactivity observed in those nuclei of the human brainstem in which NK-ir structures, but not SP, are found is due to NKB (the antibody used here also recognizes NKB).
