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

  • Either way, it is unlikely that polyornithine altered the topology of the sections to mask haptotactic cues in the same manner that would have occurred through fixation.

  • To the extent that these biochemical cues, but not haptotactic cues, were blocked by fixation or mounting on polyornithine, these data suggest that haptotaxis is insufficient to account for the parallel orientation.

  • Therefore, taken together, the effects of fixation and polyornithine suggest that haptotactic cues are insufficient to guide parallel neurite growth.

  • Cryostat sections of rat brain were manipulated to deactivate biochemical guidance cues while preserving haptotactic cues and were then used as substrata for cultured neurons.

  • However, when sections were mounted on polyornithine-coated culture dishes, a manipulation also designed to mask chemical cues but not haptotactic interactions between growing neurites and the underlying substrate, neurite outgrowth was found to radiate in all orientations without preference for the longitudinal axis of the fiber tract (Fig.
