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

Cell lines were treated with demethylating agent 5-Aza-2' deoxycytidine (Sigma) for five days at a concentration of 2 to 5 μM, HDAC-inhibiting agent n-butyrate at a final concentration of 5 μM for the last 24 hours or a combination of both.
The remaining five cell lines neither showed evidence of decreased mRNA nor any effect of demethylating or HDAC-inhibiting agents on expression levels.
2% of CC [ 13 ] . HIC1 is a zinc finger transcription factor that is transcriptionally silenced by promoter methylation in several types of human cancer [ 26 ] . Heterozygous Hic1 mouse with promoter methylation of wild type allele develop carcinomas, sarcomas and lymphomas, suggesting that this gene acts as a tumor suppressor gene [ 27 ] . HIC1 gene was down regulated in majority of the CC cell lines examined by us and this down-regulated expression was reactivated upon treatment with demethylating and HDAC-inhibiting agents.
The effect of methylation on gene expression was similarly assessed on total RNA isolated from cell lines treated with the demethylating agent 5-Aza-2' deoxycytidine (Sigma) for five days at a concentration of 2-5 μM.
Treatment with demethylating and deacetylating inhibitor did not activate the expression in any cell line regardless of promoter methylation.
