Lodgement


Definition:

  • (n.) See Lodgment.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) Platelets appear to be involved in tumor cell lodgement, since thrombocytopenia significantly reduces the number of lodged tumor cells.
  • (2) Increased hemopoietic activity following lodgement, seemed to play an important role for further metastases.

  • (4) Six hours after release from treatment with 0.3 mM HU cells were synchronized in the G2 phase of the cell cycle but the consequent increase in cell volume was not responsible for increased metastasis through enhancement of tumour-cell arrest, since lodgement of 51Cr-labelled, HU-treated cells was no greater than that of control cells.
  • (5) Effective hematopoiesis is thought to be maintained by interplaying between the hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) and their supporting stroma which supply an appropriate environment for HSC lodgement, proliferation and differentiation in the bone marrow.
  • (6) It was more probable that the sulphated polysaccharides were interfering with the passaging of tumour cells across the capillary wall as heparin significantly inhibited metastasis when injected up to 3 hr after lodgement, and heparin and fucoidan caused a gradual loss of tumour cells from the lung which only became apparent greater than 1 hr following cell lodgement.
  • (7) The suppressive effect of cytotoxicity of the splenocytes by whole body X-irradiation may thus relate to ensuing metastasis both in the phase of release and intravasation from the primary tumor and in the phase of lodgement and proliferation in the target organ.
