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

Control for chemotaxis was performed by adding 1000 ng/ml cCAF to both wells of the Transwell unit.
The best experimentally documented case is the existence of a large subset of mammalian ORs transcribed in testes and expressed on the surface of mature spermatozoa, suggesting a possible role for ORs in sperm chemotaxis [ 36, 37, 38, 39].
This model is consistent with the recent report that MHCK-A displays enrichment into anterior F-actin-rich protrusions of polarized cells during chemotaxis, and into phagocytic and macropinocytotic extensions [ 23 ] . The polar localization of MHCK-A would be consistent with the long-standing "polar relaxation" model for cytoskeletal reorganization during cytokinesis [ 33 ] . MHCK-A may represent a factor that contributes to polar relaxation in this system via polar disassembly of myosin II filaments.
Because tissues treated with cCAF have more FN and TN at the time that these cells are entering the wound and chemokines are well known for their chemoattractant properties [ 34 35 ] , we tested whether cCAF stimulates chemotaxis of fibroblasts using transwell assays.
In addition to regulation of chemotaxis and homing, other functions have been ascribed to chemokines, including modulation of T cell fate by direct effects on differentiating T cells, and regulation of proteolysis in blood monocytes [19,30].
