Example sentences for: emphysematous

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

Previous work has suggested that although SERCA expression in limb muscles seems to respond to increases in functional load by upregulating SERCA 2 (the slow SERCA isoform) and downregulating SERCA 1 (the fast isoform) [ 50 ] , similar responses might not occur in diaphragm [ 51 ] . Our data showing no difference in the expression of SERCA 1 and SERCA 2 between emphysematous and control animals are consistent with this finding.
In the scalene muscle, an accessory muscle of inspiration, of emphysematous hamsters, an increase in IIa fibers and a decrease in IIx fibers has been demonstrated with the use of anti-MHC monoclonal antibodies.
Because monoclonal MHC antibodies are better characterized in rat than hamster, and with the availability of a semi-quantitative reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) assay for rat MHC mRNA [ 19 ] , we set out to study changes in MHC-determined fiber types and MHC mRNA expression in emphysematous rat diaphragm.
Mean strip wet weight was 0.092 ± 0.004 g in the control rats and 0.088 ± 0.003 g in the emphysematous rats ( P = 0.51).
It is not surprising that, with no change in SERCA 1 and SERCA 2 expression detected by immunocytochemistry, we found no difference in the relaxation times between control and emphysematous diaphragm strips.
