What's the difference between blastogenesis and reproduction?
Blastogenesis
Definition:
(n.) Multiplication or increase by gemmation or budding.

(15) To determine whether the polyclonal immunomodulator, Phytohemagglutinin (PHA), stimulates murine lymphocytes in vivo and causes cytotoxic differentiation, we studied blastogenesis and the concomitant synthesis of macromolecules (DNA, RNA and protein) by lymphocytes at different hours after injection of PHA in mice.
(16) Use of Toxocara exoantigens in the blastogenesis assay revealed that Toxocara exoantigens could elicit between 20 and 95% of the ConA response in BAL cells, while in spleen cells Toxocara exoantigens could only elicit 1 to 5% of the ConA response.
(17) The marked inhibition of periodic acid-induced blastogenesis, exerted by Fremy's salt and by bisulfite, was attributed to the effect of the corresponding carbonyl addition derivatives formed in situ of the oxidized cell membranes.
(18) Both deoxyadenosine and deoxyguanosine, when incubated separately with OKT4 and OKT8 cells in the presence of EHNA, an ADA inhibitor, did not significantly inhibit lymphocyte blastogenesis to a greater extent in ARC patients than in controls.
(19) In vitro lymphocyte blastogenesis has been useful in the diagnosis of nickel allergy in humans, but has not been applied to predictive testing in animals.
(20) Phytohemagglutinin-induced lymphocyte blastogenesis, however, was depressed by water-soluable adjuvants.
Reproduction
Definition:
(n.) The act or process of reproducing; the state of being reproduced
(n.) the process by which plants and animals give rise to offspring.
(n.) That which is reproduced.
Example Sentences:
(1) The availability and success of changes in reproductive technology should lead to a reappraisal of the indications for hysterectomy, especially in young women.
(2) The purpose of this paper is to discuss the potential for integrating surveillance techniques in reproductive epidemiology with geographic information system technology in order to identify populations at risk around hazardous waste sites.
(3) In this way they offer the doctor the chance of preventing genetic handicaps that cannot be obtained by natural reproduction, and that therefore should be used.
(4) The sensitivity , accuracy, and reproductibility of this method are described and discussed.
(5) Thus, inhibition of reproductive function of young males after EP action has been demonstrated.
(6) The La Parguera facility was established in part to contrast the social behavior of free-ranging groups with that in enclosures, as well as to compare the seasonal events linked to reproduction with those at Cayo Santiago.
(7) Thus, the carotid pulse tracing provides an accurate reproduction of the morphology of the pressure tracing recorded from the ascending aorta, and when calibrated by peripheral blood pressure measurement, it can be used to calculate LV pressure throughout ejection.
(8) Somewhat surprisingly then, in view of the mechanisms in mammals, birds do not seem to use this seasonal message in the photoperiodic control of reproduction.
(9) Such factors can mask any interactions between biologic factors of the aging female reproductive system and other social factors that might otherwise detemine fertility during the later reproductive years.
(10) The results indicate that additional feed in late gestation improves reproductive performance in sows.
(11) Here we show that the subsequent survival and reproductive success of subordinate female red deer is depressed more by rearing sons than by rearing daughters, whereas the subsequent fitness of dominant females is unaffected by the sex of their present offspring.
(12) The variations in behavior and physiology across the year were considered in terms of factors constraining the timing of the natural reproductive pattern.
