How can you use “lform” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
When ratios between the newly synthesised α Lform and the age-modified forms (β Land α D) were calculated, only minor and nonsignificant differences were observed between premenopausal and postmenopausal women.
The ratio between the nonisomerised α Lform and the racemised α Dform of CTX was consequently increased in NC+ patients and in HC+ patients 2.2 and 1.5 times, respectively, when compared with NC- patients, and increased 2.4 and 1.6 times, respectively, compared with postmenopausal patients.
The age-related β Lform accumulates with a slightly higher kinetic rate than α DCTX [ 9 ] . This is also apparent from the less pronounced increase in the α L/β Lratio compared with the α L/α Dratio in metastatic patients.
The measurement of CTX isoforms, and the ratios between the native α Lform and the age-modified forms of CTX, indicative of the age of the resorbed collagen fragments, may thus provide clinical useful information for diagnosing and monitoring bone metastasis occurrence in cancer patients [ 11 ] . Such an application of the CTX bone resorption markers may be especially relevant for breast cancer patients, who have a high risk of developing bone metastases.
The α Lform representing the degradation of newly formed bone was, however, more elevated than the corresponding age-related isoforms (Table 1).
