Example sentences for: permissive

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

  • To determine more precisely if crushed white matter is less permissive for neurite growth, quantitative comparisons were made of neurite lengths from neurons attached directly to crush sites and neurons attached to uncrushed regions.

  • Unfortunately, naive lymphocytes are not susceptible to infection with adenoviruses due to lack of detectable expression of a viral receptor, such as the coxsackie/adenovirus receptor (CAR), which is required for efficient viral attachment [ 8 9 10 ] . The CAR protein contains two extra-cellular immunoglobulin-like (Ig) domains, the first of which appears sufficient for binding to the adenoviral fiber knob protein [ 11 12 ] . Expression of either human or murine CAR in various cell lines has been shown to facilitate gene transfer by recombinant human adenoviruses [ 8 9 10 13 ] . Stable transfection of transformed murine B and T cells lines with human CAR (hCAR) lacking its cytoplasmic domain rendered them susceptible to adenoviral transfection, establishing that lymphoid cells can be permissive hosts for adenoviral transduction and demonstrating that the cytoplasmic domain of CAR is not required for viral entry [ 13 ] . More recently, mice transgenic for full length [ 14 ] or truncated hCAR [ 15 ] have been described in which adenoviral transduction of primary lymphocytes has been demonstrated.

  • Wild type cells with short spindles were in pre-anaphase and showed focal nucleolar Cdc14 staining, and those with elongated mitotic spindles were in late anaphase and showed diffused Cdc14 staining (Figure 1, Rows 1 and 4; [ 8 9 ] ). In contrast, cdc5-1 cells uniformly exhibited focal Cdc14 staining whether they were grown exponentially at permissive temperature (25°C) or arrested in late mitosis at nonpermissive temperature (33°C) (Figure 1, Rows 2 and 5).

  • Solana was also asked what would constitute a "permissive environment" for NATO troops.

  • She was quoted as saying, "Those troops are going to go in a permissive way."
