(11) Neonatal condition, fetal alcohol effects (FAE) in the newborn.
(12) It is concluded that FAE cells are not specialized epithelial cells, as they do not react to an anticytokeratin monoclonal antibody; on the contrary, they are formed by mesenchymal stemcells that bulge into the lumen and change their character after moving into the epithelium.
(13) Frequently degenerated FAE cells could also be found among normal FAE cells in the epithelium.
(14) The FAE animals, however, showed parallel changes in plasma and urine osmolality and urine production with no significant change in AVP.

(18) (2) The other type was noticed mainly in the tunica mucosa of the rectum and had a flat FAE.
(19) The extra- and intracellular steroids were extracted, separated into free steroids, sulfates and non-polar derivatives (FAE) and identified by HPLC coupled to a Berthold radioactivity monitor.
(20) HLA-DR antigens were strongly expressed on M cells and cells with dendritic morphology, whereas other FAE covering Peyer's patches showed weak, but definite staining.

Example Sentences:

(3) An informative Dutch pedigree showed that two other linked polymorphic DNA markers, Pi227 and YN5.48, closely flank the FAP locus, one on either side.
(4) Studies of the molecular genetics of colon cancer have identified acquired alterations in oncogenes such as the K-ras gene and in putative tumor suppressor genes such as the FAP gene on chromosome 5, the p53 gene on chromosome 17, and the DCC gene on chromosome 18, which appear to mediate important steps in the adenoma-dysplasia-carcinoma sequence.
(5) The tumors themselves were FAP protein negative, as were the nonpancreatic tumors and normal organs.
(6) These clinical features closely resembled familial amyloid polyneuropathy (FAP), but abnormal serum prealbumin levels, specific to FAP (Japanese type), were not detected by radioimmunoassay; DNA sequence for prealbumin was normal.
(7) In FAP group (7 males and 5 females) the average age was 55 (range 30 to 74).
(8) Other probes, however, should be useful for assessing FAP inheritance by restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis, for presymptomatic diagnosis of the disease.
