What's the difference between ingrowing and ingrown?
Ingrowing
Definition:
(a.) Growing or appearing to grow into some other substance.
Example Sentences:
(1) In mutants with only a few photoreceptors, only the few glial cells near ingrowing axons expressed the marker.
(2) Acne keloidalis is characterized by infected keloid-like nodules in the short-cut nuchal region probably caused by recurving, ingrowing hairshafts.
(3) The innervation pattern and morphological features of the ingrowing AChE-positive fibers in the host hippocampus proper and in the dentate gyrus resembled those of normal rats in animals with grafts from any of the three forebrain regions (i.e., septum, NBM, or striatum), whereas ingrowth from the brainstem and spinal cord grafts were markedly abnormal with respect to both innervation pattern and fiber morphology.
(4) Completed questionnaires were received from 208 patients on whom 245 operations for ingrowing toenails had been performed at King's College Hospital.
(5) Little growth was seen into denervated terminal fields of the commissural, septal or entorhinal afferents, pointing to a preference of the ingrowing LC fibers for the areas normally innervated by adrenergic afferents.
(6) The types of ingrowing nails in infancy are discussed.
(7) From the 3rd to the 12th week there was rapid bone ingrowth and also marked decline in mineralization rate of the ingrowing bone.
(8) The findings demonstrate the presence of sympathetic nerve fibers (containing tyrosine hydroxylase and neuropeptide Y), mainly accompanying ingrowing blood vessels; parasympathetic nerve fibers (containing acetylcholinesterase and vasoactive intestinal peptide), possibly reaching the graft from the adjacent renal capsule; and afferent nerve fibers (containing substance P and calcitonin gene-related peptide), which were less numerous.
(9) The use of the flexor hallucis longus tendon as an additional landmark has been tested in 71 patients scheduled for surgery on the foot (emergency trauma surgery, amputations, ingrowing toe-nails, removal of bedsores, verrucas).
(10) To study the prenatal development of connections between the lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN) and the primary visual cortex in the cat, we have examined the relationship between the position of ingrowing afferents from the LGN and their target cells in cortical layers 4 and 6 at various times during the cat's 65 d gestation period and during the first 3 weeks of postnatal life.
(11) Additional studies will be necessary, over extended time periods, to determine whether the bilaminar layer remains a constant feature between the HTR and the surrounding bone or whether this region is gradually supplanted by the ingrowing bone.
(12) In order to test the possibility that ingrowing retinal fibers are the driving force for this shifting, we induced a permanent retinal projection into the ipsilateral tectum in juveniles of the cichlid fish Haplochromis burtoni.
(13) relating to hierarchies of axonal preference, the need for denervation, and the involvement of glial cells) in partially deafferented adult systems, such as the septal nuclei, are retained, or modified, in face of the ingrowing fibres from embryonic transplants.
(14) Ingrowing fibers were thin and poorly varicose, exhibiting endings morphologically similar to the growth cones observed during axogenesis.
(15) This hypothesis proposes that the mechanism for guiding neuritic elements of the statoacoustic ganglion to their appropriate target tissues is that attractant fields are established by the differentiating sensory epithelia of the inner ear to which nerve growth cones of ingrowing afferent neurites are attracted.
(16) The process is followed immediately by new-bone formation by autoinduction in which both the inductor cells and the induced cells are derived from ingrowing cells of the host bed.
(17) Likewise the ingrowing nerve fibers are even more vulnerable to aminoglycoside antibiotics than the hair cells.
(18) Hyperbaric oxygen stimulates angiogenesis, with increased neovascularization and optimization of cellular levels of oxygen for osteoblast and fibroblast proliferation, collagen formation, and support of ingrowing blood vessels.
(19) There are many common causes of pain in the foot, such as ingrowing toenails and skin problems, that are obvious, but other causes such as vascular insufficiency and nerve entrapment present diagnostic difficulties.
(20) A titanium implant in which a conduit is gradually filled with ingrowing bone (the Bone Harvest Chamber) has been modified to allow continuous local treatment of the conduit tissue with biochemical agents.
