How can you use “testis” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
As in Experiment 1, testis size was not adjusted for body weight using ANCOVA models.
Our previous fractionation of mouse testis extracts showed that most DAZL were present in the post mitochondrial fraction, and some of them were associated with polyribosomes [ 12 ] . Similar analyses showed that a majority of DAZAP1 in adult mouse testes was also present in the cytoplasmic fraction (data not shown).
As described earlier, the selection of some of the genes on this mouse testis array was based on results with human expression arrays, showing that our cross-species approach to gene selection is a viable means of identifying candidate genes for such tissue-specific arrays.
To assess gene expression, total RNA isolated from normal testes, the cell lines, and tumor tissues, and polyA+ RNA of testis obtained from Clontech (Palo Alto, CA) was reverse transcribed using random primers and the Pro-STAR first strand RT-PCR kit (Stratagene, La Jolla, CA).
A recent gene discovery study performed in the testis of Drosophila melanogaster found that 47% of greater than 1500 sequenced cDNAs did not match to ESTs previously identified in this organism [ 19 ] . Likewise the testis of the cynomolgus monkey has yielded several novel gene sequences [ 8 9 ] . Therefore, we reasoned that the sequencing of ESTs from hamster testis might reveal the existence of novel genes conserved in other species that may function in controlling testicular development and/or function.
