What's the difference between quiescence and quiescency?
Quiescence
Definition:
(n.) Alt. of Quiescency
Example Sentences:
(1) The latter group received progesterone to permit blastocysts and the dissected fragments to enter into quiescence, prior to injection of oestradiol to induce implantation.
(2) Two of the antisense-fos clones grew in a density-dependent manner, exhibiting both a flat morphology and a quiescence in low serum medium unlike the sense-fos controls.
(3) No significant difference between patients with IgA nephropathy in clinical quiescence and the control subjects was demonstrated.
(4) These analyses unmasked unique attributes of spontaneous LH secretory events, which were represented as delimited momentary augmentations in endogenous LH secretory rates interspersed among intervals of relative secretory quiescence.
(5) When compared with internal monitoring, the external monitor detected 90.8% of uterine contractions with a specificity for uterine quiescence of 98.1%.
(6) The data support the hypothesis that malignant cells can exist in a state of relative quiescence for extended periods.
(7) The arrested cells showed reduced levels of actin synthesis and the turning-off process in the synthesis of actin was found to be relatively slow as the cells entered into quiescence.
(8) The Syrian hamster is being used as an experimental aging model to investigate the intrinsic developmental program of dermal fibroblasts in vivo (proliferation, extracellular matrix (ECM) production, quiescence, and reactivation during wound repair) in order to determine whether the in vivo differentiation program and mature function of these cells is related to their in vitro proliferation and senescence pattern.
(9) After an initial quiescence period (growth arrest), target cells were exposed to plasma derived serum (PDS) from 4 experimental groups: young stimulated rats; young sham-operated controls; aged stimulated rats and aged sham-operated controls, at PDS concentrations of 2.5% and 5.0% and counted at days 2 and 5.
(10) Methionine-enkephalin (Met-Enk) and dynorphin were injected intra-arterially into the distal stomach and small intestine of the anesthetized dog during quiescence and phasic activity initiated by field stimulation or intra-arterially administered motilin.
(11) Migrating motor complexes and a low percentage of time of quiescence were noted on both recordings.
(12) Thus mesotocin is unlikely to act as a systemic luteostatic agent during seasonal quiescence.
(13) Interventions such as quiescence, manganese and acidosis reduce myocardial contractility and increase the size of the extracellular space.
(14) These observations suggest that exogenous melatonin administered at 2000 h or 0400 h may be temporally adding to endogenous circulating melatonin, inducing gonadal quiescence.
(15) Lymphocytes obtained from baboons rejecting a heart allograft expressed NDA 4, whereas transplant recipients in quiescence showed no detectable NDA 4.
(16) In comparison to the fetuses of low risk multiparae studied earlier, the fetuses in the present study showed a somewhat lower proportion of quiescence (coincidence 1F) and higher percentage of activity (coincidence 2F); however, most of these differences were not statistically significant.
(17) During exposure to 10 mM K+, atrial potentials in all of the electrograms and atrial contractions ceased, indicating electrical quiescence of the contractile myocardium; however, the unique pattern of discharge of the SAB, PAVB, AVN, and DAVB persisted at the SA nodal rate.
(18) Also, growth rates and cell density at quiescence appear to be regulated by distinct mechanisms.
(19) Glutathione depletion to this extent (i.e., 0.13 mM vs. 2.24 mM in control) did not modify the aerobic radiation response for cells in the physiological states of proliferation, quiescence, or stimulated quiescent cells.
(20) The levels of chloramphenicol acetyltransferase activity in exponentially growing cells were approximately 2-fold higher than in cells that had been serum deprived for 24 h and were entering quiescence.
