Example sentences for: stimulates

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

  • Estrogen receptors have been identified in cultured fibroblasts of various origins and vascular smooth muscle cells [ 51 52 53 ] . Estrogens enhance proliferation of fibroblasts and inhibit vascular smooth muscle migration [ 54 55 ] . Binding of estrogens to fibroblasts also stimulates fibroblast interaction with epithelial cells with subsequent acceleration of maturation of epithelial cells [ 56 ] .

  • Flexibility stimulates technological innovation, fuels economic activity and reduces cost to industry and consumers.

  • In vitro , arachidonic acid stimulates the dissociation of heme from IDO and this correlates with IDO stimulatory effects on COX [ 39], providing circumstantial support for the latter possibility.

  • Another feature reported earlier for MHCK-A activation is that myosin II itself stimulates autophosphorylation [ 25 ] . To test whether MHCK-C autophosphorylation is accelerated in the presence of myosin II, the stoichiometry of FLAG-MHCK-C autophosphorylation was evaluated in the presence and absence of myosin II filaments.

  • Intestinal calcium absorption is increased after feeding a low calcium diet or under conditions of increased calcium needs, such as during growth, via a parathyroid hormone (PTH)-vitamin D mediated process [ 3 ] . A lowering of serum calcium levels stimulates the secretion of PTH that then activates the renal conversion of inactive 25-hydroxyvitamin D to the active hormonal metabolite 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D. At the intestine, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D, acting through a nuclear receptor, stimulates transcription of vitamin D-mediated genes, including calbindin D, involved in calcium transport thereby acting as the primary hormonal regulator of active intestinal calcium transport [ 3 ] . It is thus likely that any putative key molecular player in calcium absorption, such as CaT1 or ECaC1, should be a prime target for hormonal regulation by 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D. However, to date, neither CaT1 nor ECaC1 expression has been shown to be related to serum 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D or vitamin D status [ 10 16 ] .
