How can you use “dysregulation” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
Equally important, other studies have shown that loss-of-function and naturally occurring mutations in BMP ligands and receptors are associated with dysregulation of folliculogenesis and ovulation [ 14 15 16 17 18 19 ] . Of particular interest is the finding that ewes having a mutation in the bmp15 gene in both alleles are infertile whereas the heterozygotes are superfertile [ 16 ] . Thus, the bmp15 gene can control ovulation quota through a dosage-sensitive mechanism.
As a consequence, osteoclast dysregulation leads to osteoporosis (decreased bone mass caused by excess osteoclast activity) or to osteopetrosis (increased bone mass caused by insufficient osteoclast activity).
Immune dysregulation appears to play a key pathogenic role, as circulating autoantibodies are common in patients with certain JRA clinical subtypes [ 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 ] . Two recent studies have shown a highly significant association between early-onset pauciarticular JRA and circulating antibodies to the 43-kDa nuclear protein DEK [ 8 9 ] . Although circulating DEK antibodies have subsequently been found in children and adults with other autoimmune diseases [ 10 11 ] , these two studies did reveal that children with JRA are significantly more likely to have anti-DEK antibodies than are children without rheumatic disease.
Based on the observations that: 1. cholesterol oxides cause PCD but the involvement of MAP kinases remains to be investigated; 2. PPARs are important in atherosclerosis but the effect of PPAR activation on cholesterol oxide induced PCD has not been determined, this study was designed to test if a dysregulation of MAP kinases was associated with the cholesterol oxide induced PCD, and to determine if PPAR activation could modulate the cholesterol oxide induced PCD.
The second set of observations indicate that reactive oxygen species (ROS) activate PLD2 in a PKC-dependent manner [ 9 ] . There is much evidence that ROS generation is upregulated in AD brain [ 42 ] . Thus, it is possible that PLD2 may be activated in this disease resulting, perhaps, in dysregulation of PC metabolism.
