How can you use “phenotypic” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
Microglia are leukocytes derived outside the central nervous system in the bone marrow, from where they enter the circulation as monocytes and migrate into the brain during late embryonic life establishing permanent residency [ 1 ] . Two different phenotypic forms of microglia are known: the activated but nonphagocytic microglia, which play a role in inflammatory pathologies, and the reactive or phagocytic microglia which participate actively in trauma, infection and neuronal degeneration [ 2 ] .
We therefore carried out a microarray analysis of IL-1β-stimulated chondrocytic cells in order to identify immediate early genes that could contribute to phenotypic changes relevant to OA.
Progress in digital microscopy has allowed quantitative image analysis to generate data that objectively and completely describe tissue phenotype, free of observer disagreement [ 13 ] , and with the potential to detect subtle changes that are undetectable to the human eye [ 14 ] . Tissue histomorphometric profiles in EMeRGE are correlated statistically with gene-expression profiles, characterizing each sample through both top-down phenotypic information and complementary bottom-up genomic data.
Previous reports of ectopic expression of different Wnts in C57mg cells demonstrated Wnt-1 to be highly transforming whereas Wnt-5a failed to induce transformation [ 15 16 ] . By identifying downstream targets of Wnt-5a and Rfz-2, we wanted to determine which genes are responsible for these phenotypic changes as well as which genes might be targets of noncanonical Wnt signaling.
