  • (11) Combining fresh autologous red marrow with other types of bank bone allograft or xenograft, or even with biological or synthetic biocompatible material that favors the induction of new bone, may provide even better results.
  • (12) Between 20 and 31% of autologous labelled lymphocytes remained in circulation until 72 h after injection.
  • (13) This 'de-differentiation' of elicited macrophages could be due to the absence of LPS contamination and foreign protein when autologous serum is used as a medium supplement.

  • (15) In contrast to the lysis of autologous tumor cells, cells with low but not high density were induced to lyse K562.
  • (16) Cells express the three chains in a stable fashion, and both autologous (parental) and heterologous (nonparental) H and L chain pairs form and are secreted.
  • (17) In addition, the preliminary results of intensive therapy followed by transplantation with cultured autologous marrow have been encouraging.
  • (18) Current investigations include the development of more effective cytoreductive regimens, use of recombinant hematopoietic growth factors, improvement of marrow purging techniques, and enhancement of cell-mediated anti-leukemic activity in patients receiving autologous marrow transplants.
  • (19) We present interim survival data for a group of 83 adult patients with recurrent malignant glioma treated by implanting stimulated autologous lymphocytes into the tumour bed following surgical debulking.
  • (20) Human T cell clones cytotoxic for autologous sarcoma cell lines have been developed from patient JM with an osteogenic sarcoma, and from patients EG and RM with malignant fibrohistiocytoma.

Homological


Definition:

  • (a.) Pertaining to homology; having a structural affinity proceeding from, or base upon, that kind of relation termed homology.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) Trifluoroacetylated rabbit serum albumin was 5 times more reactive with these antibodies and thus more antigenic than the homologous acetylated moiety confirming the importance of the trifluoromethyl moiety as an epitope in the immunogen in vivo.
  • (2) The ORF2 showed homology with the Escherichia coli regulatory gene ompR, and ORF4 showed homology with E. coli and Rhizobium meliloti regulatory genes fnr and fixK, respectively.
  • (3) Nucleotide sequence analysis of cDNAs for asparagine synthetase (AS) of Pisum sativum has uncovered two distinct AS mRNAs (AS1 and AS2) encoding polypeptides that are highly homologous to the human AS enzyme.
  • (4) In four main regions the conservation varied from 83-91% while in the remaining regions the homology dropped to between 56-62%.
  • (5) It has 61% homology with tRNA(Leu)(anticodon m5CAA) and 63% homology with tRNA(Leu)(anticodon UAG), the two other known yeast tRNAs(Leu).
  • (6) The specified region of the inner E2 core domain was highly homologous to the region of the E2 subunit of pyruvate dehydrogenase and alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase.
  • (7) This novel mechanism of receptor regulation, named transmodulation, should be distinguished from the reduction in total receptor number caused by the homologous ligand (downregulation) and from the change in affinity produced by the binding of agonists or antagonists to the same receptor site.
  • (8) This unusual insertion could affect the interaction of cat CD4 with class II molecules, or with FIV, a feline homolog of HIV.
  • (9) On the basis of primary sequence homology with other known Pseudomonas lipases, a number of putative active site residues located in conserved areas were found.
  • (10) Extensive sequence homologies and other genetic features are shared with the related oncogenic virus, human papillomavirus type 16, especially in the major reading frames.
  • (11) Since the plasmid-cured strains did not contain DNA sequences homologous to plasmid DNA, the gene for the free-inclusion protein must be encoded in the chromosome.
  • (12) Examination of the deduced amino acid sequence revealed an apparent homology to cAMP binding sites in several other proteins.
  • (13) Thus, introduction of arginine in position 5 with a hydrophobic amino acid in position 6 is compatible with high potency in several biological systems and results in compounds with lowered potency to release histamine compared to homologous peptides with tyrosine in position 5 and D-arginine in position 6.
  • (14) This receptor and a growing family of related cytokine receptors share homologous extracellular features, including a well-conserved WSXWS motif.
  • (15) Amino acid analysis indicated a significant number of serine amino acids: N-terminal sequence data demonstrated a high level of homology; and trypsin digestion followed by reversed-phase HPLC indicated the possibility of multiple phosphorylation sites.
  • (16) Homologous insemination in 52 couples during a period of one year yields a conception rate of 38.5%.
  • (17) The region is distinctive in that the sequence is absent from the homologous domain of the erythroid alpha chain and diverges from the normal internal repeat structure observed throughout other spectrins.
  • (18) Surrounding intact ipsilateral structures are more important for the recovery of some of the language functions, such as motor output and phonemic assembly, than homologous contralateral structures.
