What's the difference between crenate and scalloped?
Crenate
Definition:
(a.) Alt. of Crenated
Example Sentences:

(2) In vitro incubation of human blood cells with iodinated radiographic contrast media (RCM) produced marked effects which were dose-dependent: erythrocytes showed crenation which was reversible; neutrophil leukocytes released the lysosomal enzyme beta-glucuronidase; basophil leukocytes released histamine; and platelets released serotonin as well as beta-glucuronidase.
(3) Our results indicate: 1) linear RBC pressure-flow behavior over a driving pressure range of 2 to 10.5 cm H2O with zero velocity intercepts at delta P = 0, thus suggesting the Poiseuille-like nature of the flow; 2) resistance to flow or "apparent viscosities" for normal RBC which are between 3.1 to 3.9 cPoise and are independent of driving pressure and pore geometry; 3) increased flow resistance (i.e., increased transit times) for old versus young RBC and for RBC made less deformable by DNP-induced crenation or by heat treatment at 48 degrees C; 4) increased mean transit time and poorer reproducibility when using EDTA rather than heparin as the anticoagulant agent.
(4) The incubation of old RBCs with PEP not only increased ATP and 2,3-DPG levels, but also facilitated the transformation of crenated erythrocytes to discocytes.
(5) Isolated human erythrocyte membranes crenate when suspended in isotonic medium, but can use MgATP to reduce their net positive curvature, yielding smooth discs and cup forms that eventually undergo endocytosis.

(9) On the other hand, the process was facilitated when red cells were exposed to crenators like the anionic drugs indomethacin and phenylbutazone or when DMPC was added to calcium-loaded red cells.
(10) The abnormal erythrocyte shape (crenation) was strikingly observed in all groups after four weeks of egg yolk feeding with good correlation to lipid levels (r = 0.9, p less than 0.001).
(11) Maintaining a higher level of albumin during EC by adding 50 g human albumin to the extracorporeal system prevented erythrocyte crenation.
(12) Uptake of phosphine by erythrocytes causes crenation, but conversion of oxyhaemoglobin to methaemoglobin and hemichrome could not be demonstrated.
(13) These results revealed that ioxaglate, an ionic contrast medium, was the best in vitro medium, to prevent aggregation of red cells and crenation deformity of erythrocytes.
(14) In contrast to the control and the regression rats, many of the hypertrophic vessels of all types in the hypoxic rats showed signs of constriction, ie, crenation of the wall, indentations of medial smooth muscle cell nuclei, and excrescences of smooth muscle cell cytoplasm, often protruding deeply into the endothelium.
(15) We demonstrate that the damage consists of lifting, crenation and detachment of endothelial cells, partially due to contracture and forceful redilation of the vessel wall.

(17) Electron microscopy of the endothelial layer of intimal explants showed dilatations in the intercellular junctions and cellular changes representing contraction--increased prominence of cytoplasmic filaments, nuclear crenation, and cytoplasmic protrusions--at 30 and 60 minutes.
(18) Raising this concentration reversibly decreased the degree of crenation.
(19) These amphiphiles immediately induced strongly crenated erythrocytes which during incubation shifted to less crenated erythrocytes or to stomatocytes.
(20) Osmiophilic granules with a homogeneous core, crenated membrane and narrow submembranous halo predominated in the columnar juxtacortical cells.
Scalloped
Definition:
(imp. & p. p.) of Scallop
(a.) Furnished with a scallop; made or done with or in a scallop.
(a.) Having the edge or border cut or marked with segments of circles. See Scallop, n., 2.
(n.) Baked in a scallop; cooked with crumbs.
Example Sentences:
(1) Ultrastructural examination of noncartilaginous regions of the tumor demonstrated mesenchymal cells with features suggestive of cartilaginous differentiation, viz, scalloped cell membranes, sac-like distension of abundant rough endoplasmic reticulum, and a matrix containing fibrillary and finely granular material.
(2) Hypertrophy of the satellite cells with increase in the perineuronal intercellular spaces, often associated with irregular, scalloped nuclear and cell outlines, suggested that neuron shrinkage had occurred.
(3) The ultrasonic root planing however showed a more discrete scalloped surface with very small tears and having a hammered appearance.
(4) I choose the halibut fillet with scallops, dauphinoise potatoes, veg melange and pesto tapenade.
(5) Composition of neurons, their structure and neuromediatory specialization in the Japanese scallop ganglia have been studied by means of morphological, morphometrical and histochemical methods.
(6) In addition, the cells receive synapses from numerous nonimmunoreactive terminals including a wide range of different dome-shaped terminals and various scalloped or glomerular terminals.
(7) By using these proteins from the scallop, Pecten maximus, the existence of two distinct tryptophan-containing domains was established, which respond independently to ATP and Ca2+-specific binding.
(8) Two classes of myosin light chains can be distinguished functionally: those that restore calcium regulation to "desensitized" scallop myofibrils, and those that do not (Kendrick-Jones, J., et al.
(9) Labeled axon terminals were both scallop-shaped and smooth in profile.
(10) An additional previously unreported finding was a 'scalloped' contour in a majority of hairs.
(11) 98, 141-148 (1985) was prepared by chymotryptic digestion of the scallop myosin in the presence of EDTA, and was assigned as the carboxyl-terminal 106-residue peptide of the SHLC.
(12) In vitro production of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) by the amoebocytes of the scallop, Patinopecten yessoensis, was studied.
(13) Myosin filaments isolated from scallop striated muscle have been activated by calcium-containing solutions, and their structure has been examined by electron microscopy after negative staining.
(14) Mussels and scallops were very rapidly contaminated showing high toxin accumulation rates, whereas rates for oysters and clams were low.

(16) Immunolabeling is in small dome-shaped and in large scalloped synaptic terminals.
(17) The important aggressive X-ray signs of central (primary) chondrosarcoma include: Infiltrating, notching and scalloping of the endosteal cortical surface; irregular and ill-defined margin between tumor and bone, transition zone widened or 'moth-eaten' in appearance; soft tissue tumor mass may grow eccentrically or concentrically around the bone; various patterns of calcification within the tumor and localized laminated periosteal reaction.
(18) At one point, dissatisfied with their taste – she is an enthusiastic rather than a merely dutiful taster – she tipped seven plated servings of scallops back in a basin and began seasoning them all over again.
