Example sentences for: mitochondrial

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

  • Recent work has shown that the Bcl-2 family regulates mitochondrial homeostasis during apoptosis [ 1 ] . Pro-apoptotic members, including Bax, Bak, Bid, and Bim, promote the release of death-inducing proteins, such as cytochrome c [ 2 3 ] , smac [ 4 ] , and endonuclease G [ 5 ] , from mitochondria while anti-apoptotic members, such as Bcl-2 and Bcl-X L , inhibit this release.

  • In particular, free radicals may lead to nuclear and mitochondrial DNA damage and mutations, causing diminished proliferative capacity, premature cellular senescence, and impaired mitochondrial function [ 29 30 ] . For the β-cell, one of the most metabolically active cells in the body, mitochondrial function is essential, and diabetes is a prominent feature of many primary disorders of mitochondrial function [ 30 ] .

  • As demonstrated in these studies, at least in part the mechanism involves mitochondrial dysfunction.

  • Even though the striated labeling in the muscle fibers appears similar to the striations noted for D-AKAP1 and RIα and is where actin is prevalent, the overlap with the mitochondrial marker (cytochrome c) is poor, in contrast with observations of close overlap in cells [ 29 ] . In the NMJ, the D-AKAP2 pattern is rather diffuse, being present in both postsynaptic and presynaptic vicinities, and appears dissimilar to the mitochondrial pattern.

  • Our analysis of mitochondrial genomes shows that in most instances the calculated probabilities (ML-mapping, Bayesian posterior probabilities, or bootstrap values) support the expected tree topologies, albeit with surprisingly strong support values.
