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

Indeed, if cells depend on cyclin D-mediated G1 → S transition, passage from G 0 through the restriction point in G 1 is dependent on the de novo expression of cyclin D transcript, accumulation of nuclear cyclin D protein, and cyclin D/CDK-4/6 phosphorylation of pRb [ 20 ] . Then, although nuclear-localized cyclin D decreases in S phase in individual cells [ 21 ] , total cyclin D in asynchronously proliferating cell populations remain elevated compared to quiescent cells [ 20 ] . In renal epithelial and mesenchymal cells, cyclin D 1 is the dominant D-type cyclin activated during cell-cycle progression, both during nephrogenesis [ 22 ] and in non-viral-mediated kidney cell proliferation [ 23 ] .
Microarray gene expression analysis can readily identify a proliferation 'signature' consisting of hundreds of genes that vary in expression between proliferating and quiescent cells [ 1, 25].
There were also isolated CT cells in the villous stroma (quiescent, q; or G 0 ), which showed very weak nuclear ERα.
Recent studies show that priming of quiescent ECs with appropriate cytokines could switch-on the EC transcription machinery, the genes and protein products of which could activate ECs.
In agreement with this, we found no significant change in expression of RP S29 transcripts even though these have been reported to be present at low levels in growth phase cells and elevated in quiescent cells [ 34 ] .
