What's the difference between foci and fuci?

Foci


Definition:

  • (pl. ) of Focus

Example Sentences:

  • (5) The socioeconomic and hygienic features of the patients' homes, some clinical variables, the therapeutic habits and the features of the foci were evaluated.
  • (6) We isolated soft agar colonies (a-subclones) and sub-clones from foci (h-subclones) of both hybrids, and, as a control, subclones of cells from random areas without foci of one hybrid (BS181 p-subclones).
  • (7) In the heart, myocarditis is often discrete, and may be complicated by perivascular fibrosis and rare foci of myocytolysis; in some cases primary lymphomas may also develop.

  • (9) Histologically, foci strongly resembling hepatocellular carcinoma with hyaline globules were noted.
  • (10) In almost 80% of sudden cardiac deaths in ACMP foci of acute myocardial ischemia are found, that can lead to ventricular fibrillation with lethal outcome.
  • (11) Ectopias of grey matter are recognised foci of epilepsy, but from an epileptological and a clinical viewpoint little attention has been given to these disorders.
  • (12) The observation of markedly enhanced macromolecular permeability foci could be related to several potential mechanisms of initiation of atherosclerosis.
  • (13) Several stages in its histogenesis may be discerned: I. focal necroses of hepatic cells associated with their invasion with lister Listeria; 2. appearance of cellular elements around the foci of necroses with subsequent formation of granulemas consisting mainly of leucocytes and lymphoid cells; 3. development of necrobiotic changes in the central areas of granulemas with concomitance of exudative processes; 4. organization of necrotic foci with subsequent scarring.
  • (14) There were also scattered foci of large cells with features of squamous cells, and many intermediate cells with oncocytic cytoplasm.
  • (15) The primary foci were excised completely in four patients.
  • (16) Foci of iron-free altered hepatocytes produced by the feeding of N-2-fluorenylacetamide (FAA) for 3 weeks were composed of cells that were replicating when surrounding iron-containing hepatocytes were not, and that responded to a mitotic stimulus when surrounding hepatocytes were inhibited or showed a delayed response.
  • (17) We report here that dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO): suppresses radiation-induced transformation in vitro, even when DMSO treatments begin as late as 10 days post-irradiation (when cells are in the confluent, stationary phase of growth); inhibits the 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) enhancement of radiation-induced transformation in vitro; does not affect the expression of transformed cells as foci (when surrounded by non-transformed cells); and may be affecting radiation-induced transformation through its solvent properties (i.e.
  • (18) Electroencephalographic activity and extracellular discharges from neurons in deep temporal lobe structures were recorded from fine wire microelectrodes chronically implanted in seven psychomotor epileptic patients for diagnostic localization of seizure foci.
  • (19) A total of 36 foci of the disease were examined and eradicated.
  • (20) In Hungary the 1971 influenza epidemic, unlike earlier influenza A2 epidemics, started unusually early and in 2 foci.

Fuci


Definition:

  • (pl. ) of Fucus

Example Sentences:

  • (1) The gene encoding D-ribulokinase, designated darK, was found to map within the L-fucose regulon, and the partial gene order was found to be Tn10-fucA-darK-fucI-fucK-thyA.
  • (2) L-Fucose is used by Escherichia coli through an inducible pathway mediated by a fucP-encoded permease, a fucI-encoded isomerase, a fucK-encoded kinase, and a fucA-encoded aldolase.
  • (3) These genes include fucP (encoding L-fucose permease), fucI (encoding L-fucose isomerase), fucK (encoding L-fuculose kinase), fucA (encoding L-fuculose 1-phosphate aldolase), fucO (encoding L-1,2-propanediol oxidoreductase), and fucR (encoding the regulatory protein).
  • (4) Clockwise, the gene order is: fucO-fucA-fucP-fucI-fucK-fucR.
