What's the difference between proliferation and replication?

Proliferation


Definition:

  • (n.) The continuous development of cells in tissue formation; cell formation.
  • (n.) The production of numerous zooids by budding, especially when buds arise from other buds in succession.

Example Sentences:

  • (11) The macrophage-derived product, interleukin 1 (IL 1) is thought to play an important regulatory role in the proliferation of T lymphocytes; however, its mechanism of action is unknown.

  • (15) Anti-5'-NT antibodies had no effect on PHA-induced proliferation.
  • (16) The mechanism by which gp55 causes increased erythroblastosis and ultimately leukaemia is unknown, but a reasonable suggestion is that gp55 can mimic the action of erythropoietin by binding to its receptor (Epo-R), thereby triggering prolonged proliferation of erythroid cells.
  • (17) Extensive proliferation has been shown to accompany the de novo generation of LAK cytotoxicity.
  • (18) Proliferating cells were abundant and scattered throughout the stratified epithelium before the appearance of villi.
  • (19) Proliferation of quiescent hematopoietic stem cells, purified by cell sorting and evaluated by spleen colony assay (CFU-S), was investigated by measuring the total cell number and CFU-S content and the DNA histogram at 20 and 48 hours of liquid culture.
  • (20) Whereas the growth and division of normal cells is carefully regulated to meet the needs of the body, tumor cells proliferate autonomously and continually, eventually interfering with and destroying the functions of normal tissue.

Replication


Definition:

  • (n.) An answer; a reply.
  • (n.) The reply of the plaintiff, in matters of fact, to the defendant's plea.
  • (n.) Return or repercussion, as of sound; echo.
  • (n.) A repetition; a copy.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) In contrast, DNA polymerase alpha, the enzyme involved in chromosomal DNA replication, was relatively insensitive to CA1.
  • (2) Assessment of the likelihood of replication in humans has included in vitro exposure of human cells to the potential pesticidal agent.
  • (3) Apparently, the irradiation with visible light of a low intensity creates an additional proton gradient and thus stimulates a new replication and division cycle in the population of cells whose membranes do not have delta pH necessary for the initiation of these processes.
  • (4) In each study, all subjects underwent four replications (over two days) of one of the six permutations of the three experimental conditions; each condition lasted 5 min.
  • (5) It has also been used to measure the amount of excision repair performed by non-replicating cells damaged by carcinogens.
  • (6) PMN were found to be nonpermissive for HSV replication and were unable to bind virus in the absence of antibody.
  • (7) However, further improvement of culture systems is needed for active replication of HBV in vitro.
  • (8) Businesses fleeing Brexit will head to New York not EU, warns LSE chief Read more Amid attempts by Frankfurt, Paris and Dublin to catch possible fallout from London, Sir Jon Cunliffe said it was highly unlikely that any EU centre could replicate the services offered by the UK’s financial services industry.
  • (9) It is concluded that fibroblast replication is an important mechanism leading to the pathologic fibrosis seen in graft versus host disease and, by analogy, probably other types of immunologically mediated fibrosis.
  • (10) We found that, although controlled release delivery of ddC inhibited de novo FeLV-FAIDS replication and delayed onset of viremia when therapy was discontinued (after 3 weeks), an equivalent incidence and level of viremia were established rapidly in both ddC-treated and control cats.
  • (11) None of the compounds proved active against the replication of retroviruses (human immunodeficiency virus, murine sarcoma virus) at concentrations that were not toxic to the host cells.
  • (12) The M 13 specific DNA present in minicells isolated several hours after infection consists of single stranded viral DNA and double stranded replicative forms in nearly equal amounts.
  • (13) A standard protocol is reported for the highly efficient demonstration of replication patterns corresponding to R-type and G-type banding.
  • (14) Infidelity of replication is a hallmark of the HIV-1 RT, and replication errors by the enzyme on RNA and DNA templates are discussed.
  • (15) To determine if late viral genes contribute to target cell lysis, phosphonoacetic acid (PAA), an inhibitor of DNA polymerase activity, was used to block DNA replication that is required for expression of late viral proteins.
