Example sentences for: btk-deficient

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

  • Btk-deficient B cells are defective in BCR-induced PLCγ2 phosphorylation and calcium mobilization [ 8, 11].

  • In Fig 3C, Btk-deficient cells expressing either WT or kinase inactive Btk:ER were treated with 4-HT and/or anti-μ for 24 hours.

  • As a further control, 4-HT treatment of Btk-deficient cells, expressing Btk without the ER domain, did not induce PLCγ2 phosphorylation (Fig 2B, lanes 9-11).

  • However Btk:ER was clearly able to induce sustained ERK activity and this, coupled with the findings that in Btk-deficient cells the sustained response is impaired [ 9], suggest that Btk activation may be responsible for the prolonged ERK activation normally detected following BCR cross-linking.

  • Parental DT40 cells were considered a better control than the Btk-deficient cells used previously (Figs 1-3), as both PLCγ2-deficient and parental cells express endogenous chicken Btk.
