Example sentences for: type-specific
How can you use “type-specific” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
Thus, the role of SPARC in cell migration may be cell type-specific, which has been shown to be the case with in vitro studies [ 7 9 10 ] . Cell motility is controlled by a cycle of cell attachment and detachment.
This is due to the fact that, although in situ hybridization and RNA blotting techniques can rapidly characterize the expression patterns of genes, the identification of regulatory elements that control cell type-specific expression in animals is extremely laborious.
The CXC chemokines such as IL-8 were originally identified as potent activators and chemoattractants for neutrophils, whereas the CC chemokines such as MCP-1 and RANTES mostly attract monocytes and eosinophils respectively [ 10 ] . Chemokines are secreted in a stimulus-and cell type-specific manner [ 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 ] and are regulated primarily at the level of gene transcription [ 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 ] . The transcriptional promoters of IL-8, RANTES and MCP-1 contain binding sites for the redox-responsive transcription factor NF-κB, which has been shown to be important for their regulation by viral infections and cytokines [ 18 20 23 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 ] .
Although clearly induced in both cell lines, the kinetics of PTEN induction in 10T1/2 and MDAH cells were somewhat different at later time points; i.e., there was a slight reduction of PTEN mRNA and protein in MDAH cells at 36 hours, possibly indicating some cell type-specific differences.
Thus, as in the Israeli data, only a very small shift in the distribution of type-specific anti-polysaccharide antibody concentration is observed during the second year of life, yet incidence of invasive disease from the serotypes in question declines substantially.
