Apodeme


Definition:

  • (n.) One of the processes of the shell which project inwards and unite with one another, in the thorax of many Crustacea.

Example Sentences:

  • (12) The former species is very similar to Caminacarus deirochelys but differs in the form of the dorsal shield which has longer lateral elongations and the median dorsal elongation does not extend to the genital sclerite, structure of the anterodorsal wall of the gnathosomal base which is closed forming a ringlike apodeme, and structure of the tarsal setae as well as the presence of one additional seta on the dorsal surface of tarsus III.

  • (14) We have used the I-5 monoclonal antibody (which specifically labels the MPs as well as the nerve pathways), HRP immunocytochemistry, and Normarski optics to visualize muscle, nerve, and apodeme development in the embryonic metathoracic limb bud from 27.5% (before the appearance of the MPs) to 55% (after the muscles have attained their basic adult pattern).
  • (15) We used daily growth bands on the thoracic apodemes to estimate age and survival of Culex pipiens s.l.
  • (16) The FlTi MPs first appear as two cells symmetrically placed on the corners of the FlTi apodeme at around 37%.
  • (17) In the intron between +0.44 kb and +2.5 kb enhancer elements are located that drive the expression in the chordotonal organs and the apodemes.
  • (18) The ligament cells are, themselves, attached to an apodeme that extends in from the tibia.
  • (19) In this first paper, we present an overview of the development of muscles, nerves, and apodemes (tendons).
  • (20) By about 50% of embryonic development the ETi supra-MP consists of a periodic series of bridges (cytoplasmic extensions) connecting the leg wall ectoderm with the apodeme, and linked into a giant syncytium near their inner, apodeme surface by a thin layer of cytoplasm containing hundreds of nuclei.

Attachment


Definition:

  • (n.) The act attaching, or state of being attached; close adherence or affection; fidelity; regard; an/ passion of affection that binds a person; as, an attachment to a friend, or to a party.
  • (n.) That by which one thing is attached to another; connection; as, to cut the attachments of a muscle.
  • (n.) Something attached; some adjunct attached to an instrument, machine, or other object; as, a sewing machine attachment (i. e., a device attached to a sewing machine to enable it to do special work, as tucking, etc.).
  • (n.) A seizure or taking into custody by virtue of a legal process.
  • (n.) The writ or percept commanding such seizure or taking.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) The femoral component, made of Tivanium with titanium mesh attached to it by a new process called diffusion bonding, retains superalloy fatigue strength characteristics.

  • (3) Human gingival fibroblasts were allowed to attach and spread on bio-glasses for 1-72 h. Unreactive silica glass and cell culture polystyrene served as controls.
  • (4) Periodontal disease activity is defined clinically by progressive loss of probing attachment and radiographically by progressive loss of alveolar bone.
  • (5) Administration of aminonucleoside and daunomycin produced proteinuria but did not cause a decrease in lipid P. Anticollagen and anti-lymphocyte sera that attached to the basement membrane but failed to produce proteinuria, also failed to affect the phospholipid content.
  • (6) Blocking the heparin-binding domains of fibronectin inhibited osteoblast attachment by 40-45%, which is complementary to inhibition results previously obtained with the RGDS tetrapeptide.
  • (7) Attachment of the graft to the wound is similar with and without the addition of human basic fibroblast growth factor, a potent angiogenic agent, to the skin replacement before graft placement on wounds.
  • (8) In this paper sensitive and selective bioassays are described for growth factors acting on substrate-attached cells, in particular members of the epidermal growth factor, transforming growth factor beta, platelet-derived growth factor, insulin-like growth factor, and heparin-binding growth factor families.

  • (11) Immunoreactions of LTR which were seen in specific granules of neutrophils and monocytes attached to the endothelial cell surface may indicate the onset of endothelial cell damage.
  • (12) We then used synthetic peptides spanning the active fragment to identify the primary sequence of the adhesive site as Leu-Arg-Glu (LRE): neurons attach to an immobilized LRE-containing peptide, and soluble LRE blocks attachment of neurons to the s-laminin fragment.
  • (13) For the 20 patients who received treatment in the latter period (1987-1990), we gave priority to conservative treatment for type T cases that were free from complications, and adopted a treatment method attaching greater importance to the resection of intimal tears.
  • (14) Its features are consistent with observed structural dimensions and the molecular periodicities related to transcription, replication and matrix attachment domains.
