Example sentences for: pseudopodia

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

The phenotype induced by ADP-ribosylation of Rho in T lymphocytes appeared different than that induced in fibroblast models, where microinjection of C3 results in fibroblast retraction of pseudopodia, with the cell body rounding up eventually to become non-adherent [ 17 ] . Video time-lapse microscopy demonstrated the elongation of aberrant pseudopods in HPB-ALL cells plated on the β1 substrate VCAM-1, rather than an altered retraction of already formed pseudopods.
Untreated HPB-ALL, mock electroporated control HPB-ALL, or C3 treated HPB-ALL do not extend pseudopodia on the non-specific cell attachment substrate poly-L-lysine (figure 3, panels 13-15), demonstrating the requirement for integrin dependent signals in both the normal spreading morphology of HBP-ALL, and the C3 induced morphological changes in this cell type.
Altered pseudopodia are rich in filamentous actin
They extend thick pseudopodia with fanned termini, and their cell bodies are flattened and oval in shape.
Since then, the terminology has varied in the literature and extensions have been designated as pseudopodia [ 24], microextensions [ 25], retraction fibers [ 25], microspikes [ 26], filopodia [ 24, 27, 28], often without a clear definition of these terms.
