How can you use “tubules” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
Microdissection of nephron segments was performed in the kidney of New Zealand White rabbit as previously described [ 44 ] . The following segments were dissected: glomeruli, proximal convoluted tubules (PCT), proximal straight tubules (PST), thin limbs of Henle's loop (tDL/tAL), thick ascending limb (TAL), distal convoluted tubules (DCT), cortical collecting ducts (CCD) and medullary collecting duct (MCD) cells.
PKCβ was shown to localize to the presynaptic terminals of NMJs [ 22 23 ] , whereas PKCθ plays a postsynaptic role at the NMJ [ 24 ] . In skeletal muscle, PKCα was found in human muscle fibers [ 25 ] and with T-tubules in rabbit skeletal muscle [ 26 ] . However, it is unknown whether tethering to a PKC-anchoring protein mediates the localization to these compartments.
Consistent with the observed mitochondrial staining by anti-D-AKAP1, it was shown previously that one of the two alternative NH2-terminal motifs of this AKAP is necessary and sufficient for targeting to mitochondria [ 28 ] . Interestingly, another AKAP governs voltage-dependent potentiation of L-type calcium channels through anchoring of PKA in transverse tubules [ 36 ] . Because this potentiation is not dependent on RIIα, it is thought that RIα is capable of this AKAP-directed modulation of calcium channel activity [ 37 ] .
In conclusion, our data suggest that the presence of high concentrations of ABP in the mouse seminiferous tubules results in a dramatically increased wave of germ cell apoptosis during the pre-pubertal period.
