(20) Apparently, the irradiation with visible light of a low intensity creates an additional proton gradient and thus stimulates a new replication and division cycle in the population of cells whose membranes do not have delta pH necessary for the initiation of these processes.
Pericellular
Definition:
(a.) Surrounding a cell; as, the pericellular lymph spaces surrounding ganglion cells.
Example Sentences:
(1) Members of the genera Rickettsia, Coxiella and Rochalimaea show considerable diversity in host cell range (in vivo vs. in vitro), kind of association with host cell (pericellular, intracellular), mode of entry, interactions with various host cell membranes, intracellular localization (intraphagosomal, free in cytoplasm, intranuclear), adaptation to preferred microhabitat (e.g., optimal pH for enzymes), details of growth cycle, mechanisms of host cell damage.
(2) However, elements of cartilage matrix (type II collagen, proteoglycan, link protein) were identified in the pericellular matrix of the osteoblastic cells and adjacent osteocytic cells.
(3) VN associated with the ECM may confer retention and bioactivity to PAI-1, potentially facilitating both pericellular regulation of plasmin generation and the rapid hepatic clearance of plasminogen activators.
(4) At later ages the beaded axons became confined to layers I-III where they gradually increased in number, and from week 4, they formed pericellular arrays which were only observed in the prefrontal and auditory cortices, not in visual cortex.
(5) The pericellular localization of collagen type IV indicates a survival time of approximately 4 days or more.
(6) A unique pattern for a carbohydrate antigen is displayed by cells of the primitive streak; antigenicity is lost with de-epithelialisation and ingression, but is regained in a pericellular distribution on the mesoderm cells that emerge from the primitive streak.
(7) We conclude that at least two discrete and widely separated sites in fibronectin with different binding properties--the carboxyl-terminal fibroblast cell-adhesive domain and an amino-terminal matrix assembly domain localized primarily within the first 25 kDa--are required for fibronectin pericellular matrix assembly by fibroblasts.
(8) In bone, MP was detected throughout all pericellular spaces.
(9) The isolation of the glycosaminoglycans from these cultures by ion-exchange chromatography indicated that the RMS8 cells retained more endogenous 3H hyaluronate in their pericellular domain than did the RMS0 cells.
(10) In this zone, prominent degradation of pericellular Matrigel proteins was assessed by both light microscopy and scanning electron microscopy.
