How can you use “mart-” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
Melanoma micrometastases were detected in 21 of 78 slices immunostained with MART-1 and Melan-A individually.
Thus, a highly sensitive immunomarker such as S-100 is less effective for interpretation of sentinel lymph nodes for melanoma micrometastases (especially when present as single cells) than MART-1 and Melan-A [ 6 ] . Certain morphological features help to differentiate melanoma cells and other non-melanoma cells such as S100 immunoreactive dendritic cells in sentinel lymph nodes.
At present histomorphologic examination with immunohistochemistry remains the most reliable and practical means of detecting melanoma micrometastases in sentinel lymph nodes [ 6 21 ] . MART-1 and Melan-A are two antibodies to different epitopes of the same antigen and are complementary to each other.
As expected, combining a monoclonal antibody to tyrosinase with MART-1 and Melan-A in the cocktail increased the spectrum to encompass three epitopes of two melanoma antigens (MART-1/Melan-A and tyrosinase).
The cocktail showed favorable detection rate for melanoma micrometastases as compared to MART-1 and Melan-A alone.
