Example Sentences:
(1) During the performance of propulsive waves of the oesophagus the implanted vagus nerve caused clonic to tetanic contractions of the sternohyoid muscle, thus proving the oesophagomotor genesis of the reinnervating nerve fibres.
(2) The dependence of fluorescence polarization of stained nerve fibres on the angle between the fibre axis and electrical vector of exciting light (azimuth characteristics) has been considered.
(3) The variation of the activity of the peptidase with pH in the presence of various inhibitors was investigated in both control and insulted muscle fibres.
(4) Peptides from this region bind to actin, act as mixed inhibitors of the actin-stimulated S1 Mg2(+)-ATPase, and influence the contractile force developed in skinned fibres, whereas peptides flanking this sequence are without effect in our test systems.
(5) The myofibrils composed 60%, 70% and 83% in the same fibres.
(6) Immunogold electron microscopy demonstrated that outer dense fibres were the predominant immunoreactive site.
(7) Subthreshold concentrations of the drug to induce complete blockade (5 x 10(-8)M) allowed to observe a greater depression of bioelectric cell characteristics in primary than in transitional fibres.
(8) Somatostatin-like immunoreactivity has been found to occur in nerve terminals and fibres of the normal human skin using immunohistochemistry.
(9) The effect of dietary fibre digestion in the human gut on its ability to alter bowel habit and impair mineral absorption has been investigated using the technique of metablic balance.
(10) Acetylcholine (ACh) induces a K+ current in rabbit cardiac Purkinje fibres.

(12) From these results, it can be suspected that the motor fibres are more vulnerable during aging.
(13) Most often, constrictor fibres follow the course of the pterygo-palatine nerve, when dilator fibres follow the infraorbital nerve.
(14) Striated muscle fibres were found in each of twenty consecutive pineal glands cultured from individual neonatal rats.2.
(15) Whereas the tight junctions of endoneurial capillaries are known to prevent certain blood-borne substances from entering the endoneurium, it was not clear whether the permeability of the pulpal capillaries, which are distant from the nerve fibres, could affect the nerve fibre environment.
(16) The percentage of energy from fat and added sugars and the amount of sodium and fibre in the diet tended to increase with energy intake.
(17) Actin is present in chromosomal spindle fibres, with consistent polarity.
