Example sentences for: efflux
How can you use “efflux” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
Chloride channels or chloride ions are known to influence cAMP-stimulated steroidogenesis by adrenal cells [ 29 ] , human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG)-stimulated steroidogenesis by amphibian follicle-enclosed oocytes [ 56 ] , as well as LH-stimulated steroidogenesis in rat Leydig cells [ 29 ] , MA-10 cells [ 59 ] , and chicken GC [ 35 ] . In mammalian cells, removal of extracellular chloride stimulates basal and protein kinase A (PKA)-dependent steroid hormone production by increasing the expression of StAR and potentiating the effects of submaximal concentrations of cAMP [ 29 59 ] . The proposed mechanism of action involves chloride efflux, depolarization of the mitochondrial and plasma membranes, and alterations to protein synthesis and cholesterol transport [ 29 59 ] .
Lee et al [ 33] showed that progesterone interacted with P-gp, inducing its expression in the granulose cell in preovulatory follicles to modulate steroid efflux.
Although progesterone is not a substrate for P-gp, it can directly bind to P-gp and block the transport of drug efflux [ 20].
This means that rapid processes can be followed and a complete influx and efflux dataset is collected from one root sample, with each sample acting as its own control.
However, it must be stressed that different contractile conditions may be associated with different relationships between ser 16-HSP20 phosphorylation and force given the multiple mechanisms whereby agents can cause relaxation [ 3 4 5 ] . For example, smooth muscle relaxation can occur by agents that reduce myoplasmic Ca 2+by inducing hyperpolarization, reducing Ca 2+influx without changes in membrane potential, increasing Ca 2+efflux, or by reducing Ca 2+release from the internal store.
