Example sentences for: oncotic

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

  • Initially, MTX causes a graded increase in cytosolic free Ca 2+concentration ([Ca 2+] i ). This is followed closely in time by the opening of cytolytic/oncotic pores (COP) that allow the exchange of large organic molecules of molecular weight less than ~800 Daltons across the plasma membrane.

  • Thus, the ability of MTX to cause zeiosis is specific, but requires the presence of U73343, presumably to block or prevent rapid oncotic cell death.

  • The cuvette experiments suggest that BAECs challenged with MTX can be rescued from oncotic cell death if U73343 is added to the bath solution within a narrow time frame after the addition of MTX.

  • First, U73122 and U73343, compounds that are commonly used to examine PLC-dependent mechanisms, potently inhibit MTX-induced change in [Ca 2+] i , vital dye uptake, and oncotic cell death in BAECs.

  • The large pores activated by MTX have been referred to as cytolytic/oncotic pores, or COP, since their activation ultimately leads to the release of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), an indication of necrotic or oncotic cell death [ 9].
