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.
Under normal or control electroporation conditions, some of the VCAM-1 adherent cells would retract pseudopodia, then form new extensions in different directions.
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.
They extend thick pseudopodia with fanned termini, and their cell bodies are flattened and oval in shape.
When HPB-ALL cells are plated onto β1 integrin substrate such as fibronectin, vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1), or even antibodies to α4β1 integrins, they respond by extending pseudopodia and displaying a highly flattened, spread morphology (figure 3, panels 4, 7, and 10, and ref [ 32 ] ). However, electroporation of C3 appeared to alter HPB-ALL morphology resulting in the extension of very fine branched finger-like cellular processes when cells were plated on the β1 integrin substrates Fn (figure 3, panel 6), VCAM-1 (figure 3, panel 9), or a mAb specific for β1 integrins (figure 3, panel 12).
