Example Sentences:

(5) Mercury-treated mice from strains carrying the H-2s haplotype developed antinucleolar antibodies (ANoA), which targeted the 34-kDa nucleolar protein fibrillarin, and in some instances also nucleolar proteins of 60-70 and 10-15 kDa, the latter corresponding to histones.
(6) In 646 patients, 53 ANoA sera (8%) were identified, and of these, 46 were available in sufficient quantities for further analysis.
(7) We were not able to confirm earlier reports that expression of H-2E genes dampens the development of ANoA.
Ansa
Definition:
(n.) A name given to either of the projecting ends of Saturn's ring.
Example Sentences:

(3) A significant amount of ANSA was retained in the blood and the liver of both species 24 and 48 hours after administration.
(4) To examine the contribution of sympathetic discharge to these vascular responses, sympathetic efferent nerve activity (SENA) from the ventral ansa subclavian nerve was recorded simultaneously.
(5) Reactions of Z-Arg-ANSA and Z-Gly-Gly-Arg-ANSA with trypsin were studied.
(6) One molecule of antibiotic links itself to one molecule of RNA messager : hydroxyl and cetone function in C1 Cs C21 C23 and "ansa" bridge link to beta subunit of RNA polymerase.
(7) Ansa said that by monitoring mobile conversations between the two men, police were able to follow the suspect's movements, from England to Milan and Bologna and finally to Rome.
(8) A second open reading frame (ORF1), encoding a protein of Mr 23,336, is found 10 bp downstream from ansA; the ribosome-binding site of ORF1 overlaps the stop codon of ansA.
(9) It has been demonstrated (Gary Bobo and Bonvallet 1975) that long-lasting stimulation of the "amygdaloid area for the defence reaction" (basal nucleus, pars magnocellularis) elicits, after an initial facilitation, a delayed inhibition of the monosynaptic masseteric reflex (MR), while stimulation of the amygdalofugal fibers running in the ansa lenticularis provokes an immediate inhibition of the reflex.
(10) The ansa subclavia joined the vertebral and the cervicothoracic ganglia.
(11) Electrical stimulation of the ventral roots while recording evoked potentials from the sympathetic chain, anterior ansa subclavia, posterior ansa, ventrolateral cervical cardiac nerve, ventromedial cervical cardiac nerve, and the vagosympathetic trunk demonstrated that A-, B-, and C-type fibers exist in these efferent neural pathways.
(12) Maytansine, a new ansa macrolide antitumor antibiotic, was administered to 60 patients as part of a phase I study.

(17) Sixty-three percent of these spontaneously active phase-locked units were modified by stimulation of a ramus or an ansa.
(18) High-dose intracoronary adenosine inhibited NA release in response to high-frequency ansa stimulation but basal release was slightly increased.
(19) Ten percent of the stimulations produced an atrio-ventricular (AV) nodal rhythm; most of the time this was induced by the left posterior and anterior ansae and ventrolateral nerves.
(20) The large NE fibers appear to enter the amygdala via the ansa peduncularis-ventral amygdaloid bundle to innervate the central and basolateral nucleus and the anterior amygdaloid area.
