How can you use “malignant” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
[ 10 ] This finding may indicate that despite their use in a malignant context, the ecdysone constructs behave with similar kinetics to that in normal cells thus implying a general utility in studies of various histological tumor types.
GAG-binding proteins can be differentially sensitive to variations in GAG structure [ 27 ] . GAGs produced among different cell types have structural and compositional differences and structural changes in GAGs are known to occur in cells undergoing morphological differentiation and/or malignant transformations [ 28 29 30 31 ] . Thus, in the native retina, or other tissue, modulation of the PEDF-receptor interactions may depend on the expression of GAGs, which occur during development and pathological conditions.
This technique allows for the accurate procurement of cells from specific microscopic regions of tissue sections, and therefore enables the molecular genetic analysis of pure populations of malignant breast cells in their native tissue environment [ 18 ] . This technical advance helps one to avoid the variation and subjectivity associated with IHC, and to overcome the limitations of data interpretation caused by tissue heterogeneity and normal stromal cell contamination in homogenized tissue specimens.
Mutation or complete loss (deletion) of the wild-type counterpart of any such gene in a malignant cell may make that cell more motile, invasive or metastatic.
NSGCTs display complex differentiation patterns that include embryonal, extra-embryonal, and somatic tissue types [ 6 ] . Teratomas with somatic differentiation can undergo additional malignant transformation with characteristics of epithelial, mesenchymal, neurogenic, or hematologic tumors [ 7 ] . While the majority of GCTs exhibit exquisite sensitivity to cisplatin-based chemotherapy, a small proportion of metastatic tumors remain resistant.
