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

The SMA-positive and SMA-negative cells were morphologically indistinguishable on H&E-stained sections.
Our findings are consistent with those of a recent study showing that a vast majority of the ME cells in both normal and ductal carcinoma in situ displayed distinct immunostaining to p63, SM-MHC, and calponin, whereas a single or a cluster of a few ME cells in some ducts failed to show immunoreactivity to all these three markers [ 28 ] . However, our study differs from this study [ 28 ] and previous studies [ 3 4 ] in four aspects: first, the SMA-negative cells were segmented, accounting for at least one-third or all of the ME cells in involved ducts; second, we tested for more ME cell markers; third, the SMA-negative cells assessed were morphologically similar to their adjacent SMA-positive neighbors on H&E-stained sections; fourth, our focus is directed toward the elucidation of the detailed immunohistochemical profile of these SMA-negative cells identified in 3 of 175 examined cases.
The total loss of all nine ME cell immunophenotypic markers suggests that these ME cells have genetic and biochemical properties differing from their SMA-positive counterparts.
