(14) The O157:H8 strains did not produce VT. All gave localised attachment to HEp-2 cells, associated with a positive fluorescence-actin staining test, and all hybridised with the E coli attaching and effacing (eae) probe.
(15) Hep G2 cells produce surplus A alpha and gamma fibrinogen chains.
(16) Adhesion may be studied in vitro systems using HeLa or HEp-2 cells, to which EPEC adhere in a localized pattern.
(17) The serum inhibitory effect appears limited to primary cells because no difference in Ad41 replication, as assayed by accumulation of Ad41 DNA, was found in infected continuous cell lines (HEp-2, 293) cultivated p.i.
(18) Additionally, the invasiveness of C. jejuni M96, a clinical isolate, was significantly increased for HEp-2 cells preinfected with coxsackievirus B3.
(19) Hep 5 impeded binding and degradation of 125I-labelled bovine LPL by perfused rat livers.
(20) To evaluate this possibility, three human cell lines, Hep G2, Hep 3B, and HA 22T, all thought to be arrested in different stages of differentiation based on their biochemical and morphological characteristics, were used as models.

(4) A phenotypically expressed incompatibility reaction occurs when unlike het alleles are present within the same somatic nucleus, and this parallels the heterokaryon incompatibility reaction that occurs when unlike alleles in different haploid nuclei are introduced into the same somatic hypha by mycelial fusion.
(5) To assess central effects of endothelin-1 (ET-1) on plasma arginine vasopressin (AVP), plasma atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), blood pressure, heart rate, and renal solute excretion, ET-1 dissolved in the artificial cerebrospinal fluid was infused intracerebroventricularly (icv) at a dose of either 0.35 ng.kg-1.min-1 (0.14 pmol; LET) or 3.5 ng.kg-1.min-1 (1.4 pmol; HET) for 45 min in conscious rats.
(6) Their rates of inactivation increase with decreases in growth temperatures from 37 degrees C to 25 degrees C. At 10 degrees C, however, anaerobiosis is not lethal and suppresses the inactivation which normally occurs among hets cultured aerobically at that temperature.
(7) In each case, the healed chromosome end had acquired sequence from the HeT DNA family, a complex family of repeated sequences found only in telomeric and pericentric heterochromatin.
(8) This was demonstrated for three loci which had previously been established by conventional heterokaryon test-het-e, het-c and mt.
