What's the difference between anta and antae?

Anta


Definition:

  • (n.) A species of pier produced by thickening a wall at its termination, treated architecturally as a pilaster, with capital and base.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) by oxygen or assisted ventilation was accomplished by members of a recently created national organisation (ANTA-DIR, 1980).
  • (2) Treatment with LHRH-anta produced a significant decrease in thymus wt, an alteration of the maturational pattern characterized by a cellular monomorphism, reduced thymocyte volume, reduction of the cortical area, and depauperation of the epithelial microenvironment.
  • (3) ANTA is shown here to be an intermediate of normal astrocyte metabolism and to display appropriate kinetic characteristics compatible with its proposed role in inducing part of the delayed neuronal loss that occurs after a brain injury (secondary neuronal death).
  • (4) Kinetic studies showed that ANTA induces a slow (greater than 12 h) degeneration of cultured granule cells.
  • (5) When LHRH-anta-treated adult (3-month-old) rats were challenged with an antigenic stimulus (multiple sc injections of complete Freund adjuvant and BSA) and antibody (anti-BSA antibodies of the immunoglobulin G class) production measured in the serum after 15 days, a marked and significant decrease in immunoglobulin G levels was observed, compared to the values measured in untreated control.
  • (6) "The greatest unfairness is that the poor are the victims of our archaic legislation," said Camara, a law professor at Cheikh Anta Diop University in Dakar.
  • (7) The specificity of such effect was demonstrated by 1) the failure of LHRH fragments [LHRH-(1-6)] to mimick the LHRH stimulatory effect; and 2) the complete reversal produced by simultaneous addition of a potent LHRH-ANTA on IL-2 receptor expression induced by LHRH.
  • (8) The marked modulation of lymphocyte function exerted by the hypothalamic decapetide LHRH prompted us to study the possible involvement of the neuropeptide in one of the major steps of lymphocyte proliferation, namely the expression of interleukin-2 (IL-2) receptor during in vitro treatment of rat lymphocytes with LHRH agonists (LHRH-A) or antagonists (LHRH-ANTA).
  • (9) Moreover, a reduced percentage of the T-helper lymphocyte subpopulation followed LHRH-anta administration.
  • (10) Astrocytes were also found to inactivate rapidly isobutanol-extracted ANTA in normal K+-containing growth medium.
  • (11) An isogenic nhaA (formerly antA) deletion strain, however, is not significantly different from wild type in this respect.
  • (12) A low-molecular weight astrocyte-derived neuronotoxic activity (ANTA) was detected, using a colorimetric bioassay of cell survival, by its effect on cultured granule cells.
  • (13) Moreover, basal and lectin stimulation of IL-2 receptor-positive cells were significantly inhibited by treatment with the LHRH-ANTA.
  • (14) The described immune deficiencies in LHRH-anta-treated rats were associated with a clear inhibition of sexual maturation.
  • (15) A similar effect of the LHRH-anta treatment on splenocyte cultures was measured.
  • (16) Whereas in control animals the maturation of mitogenic potential in thymocyte cultures showed a progressive and age-dependent increase, reaching a maximal activity at 30 days of age and then decreasing after puberty onset, in LHRH-anta-treated rats, the thymocyte's proliferative response was completely blocked at 7 days of age and remained very low at each time interval studied, until 3 months of age.
