Example sentences for: secrete

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

  • It is well established that, besides the MHCII molecules, IFNg can induce susceptible tumors to upregulate the expression of MHC class I antigens [ 43 ] , tumor associated antigens [ 44 ] , costimulatory molecules [ 45 ] , and heat shock proteins [ 46 ] . In addition, IFNg may have antimetabolic and antiproliferative influence on certain types of tumor cells [ 47 ] . It has also been suggested that IFNg may cause responding tumor cells to secrete angiogenesis inhibitors [ 48 ] . As it is not known which of those IFNg effects are missing or restored by PMA in LS1034 cells, a thorough evaluation of the possible clinical implications of our in vitro findings is quite difficult.

  • In some circumstances, CD4 +and CD8 +T cells were rendered inactive in tumor-bearing hosts [ 8 ] . The inactivation of CD4 +T cells has been attributed either to the tumor cells themselves or to bone marrow-derived cells [ 9 10 11 ] , whereas antigen ignorance or loss of memory have been postulated to underlay that of CD8 +T cells [ 12 13 ] . Other studies have suggested that tumor cells can secrete immunosuppressive factors such as TGF-β or express Fas ligand to induce apoptosis of infiltrating lymphocytes [ 14 15 16 ] . Furthermore, the tumor vasculature appears to be quite different from normal blood vessels, in terms of structural organization, interstitial pressure, and flow patterns [ 17 ] , and in reduced lymphocyte and natural killer cell homing and adhesion [ 18 19 20 21 ] . The existence of significant barriers to effective immunological destruction is further illustrated by a mouse model of concurrent multistage tumorigenesis and anti-oncogene autoimmunity, wherein progenitor dysplastic lesions are infiltrated and disrupted, while solid tumors are not [ 22 ] . The hypothesis is that the microenvironment of certain types of solid tumor can serve to locally suppress T cell infiltration.

  • Human memory T cells acquire the ability to secrete IL-4 late during in vivo differentiation.

  • To pinpoint mutants that lacked secretion defects, we assayed each mutant from the collection for the ability to secrete the enzyme invertase in response to low glucose.

  • A functional link between the expression of BMPR-IB and luteolysis comes from loss-of-function studies showing that the CL of the cycle continues to secrete progesterone in the absence of BMPR-IB [ 31 ] . This work, together with our finding that BMPR-IB is selectively expressed in the TE of the CL at luteolysis, supports the novel hypothesis that the regulation of inducible and TE specific BMPR-IB gene expression may control luteolysis.
