(20) The inhibition assay for mite allergen was reproducible in the presence of protein concentrations of added plant, fungal, arthropod and animal extracts in excess of the protein concentrations that occur under the operational mite assay conditions.
Hypodermis
Definition:
(n.) Same as Hypoblast.
(n.) Same as Hypoderma, 2.
Example Sentences:
(1) Fibroblast number showed an initial fall from 5 to 14 d but then started to increase in number from 21 to 60 d. This chronic inflammatory reaction appeared to be in response to particulate matter that had been incorporated into the wound bed and hypodermis, and was still apparent 6 months after injury, when hydrocolloid particles were detectable microscopically in the hypodermis.
(2) The T1 variety of tyrosinase is present in both particulate and soluble or readily solubilized forms in the pigmented hypodermis (hair bulbs) of C57BL mice and Harding-Passey mouse melanoma.
(3) In nematodes, although there was variation in reactions among species, N-acetyl-beta-glucosaminidase and beta-galactosidase were localized in the hypodermis and lateral cords excluding the excretory canal, and coelomocytes, intestinal epithelium and the walls of the reproductive systems.
(4) The pathology of the bald scalp showed the presence of tubular epithelial structures devoid of hair bulbs extending from the epidermis to the deep dermis and the superficial hypodermis.
(5) During induction of the Caenorhabditis elegans hermaphrodite vulva by the anchor cell of the gonad, six multipotent vulval precursor cells (VPCs) have two distinct fates: three VPCs generate the vulva and the other three VPCs generate nonspecialized hypodermis.
(6) Immunoelectron microscopy established that the antigen encoded by this clone is present in the hypodermis and the basal layer of the cuticle of L3 and female adult worm, and in the egg shell around developing microfilariae.
(7) In particular, the hypodermis surrounding the ventral cord is not the primary focus of unc-3 action (body muscle was excluded in earlier work).
(8) Genes that control the fates of the VPCs in response to the anchor cell signal are defined by mutations that cause all six VPCs to generate vulval tissue (Multivulva or Muv) or that cause all six VPCs to generate hypodermis (Vulvaless or Vul).
(9) Haemocytes containing lysosomes are present in the wing at this time, but do not invade the fragmenting hypodermis.
