Example Sentences:
(1) Authors report a ring chromosome 18 (18 r) in a four year old boy, with low birth weight, retarded growth and development, microcephaly and plagiocephaly, horizontal nystagmus, ambiguous genitalia, clinodactyly of the fifth finger, distal axial triradius, whorls pattern in 8 fingers in dermatoglyphic.
(2) The enzyme was specifically localized over the whorled SER membranes and was absent from nonwhorled SER, rough endoplasmic reticulum, and peroxisomes.
(3) It was found in the proposed model of morphogenesis of Acetabularia that the number of whorls N (as well as the number of umbel rays) depends on the degree of mechanical instability of the deforming cell wall (the greater is instability, the higher is the value N).
(4) Membrane whorls were frequently found in bile canaliculi, the space of Disse, and between the lateral membranes of hepatocytes at early times.

(6) Textures observed include spherulites with Maltese crosses, striated and highly colored ribbons, whorls of periodic interference fringes, and colored flakes.
(7) Light and electron microscope autoradiographs of degenerate photoreceptors revealed that even in the final stages of degeneration when OS are reduced to small, irregular whorls of membrane, 3H-leucine labeling was present in inner segments and OS membranes.
(8) The authors report a case of myocardial infarction complicated by a false aneurysm of the posterior wall of the left ventricle, the diagnosis of which was confirmed, for the first time, by transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) which provided better definition of the anatomical features of the lesion: visualisation of the particularly wide neck (5 cm) and the site of rupture of the myocardium; demonstration of the presence in the false aneurysm with a thin pericardial wall of a large thrombus of different acoustic density, itself overlain by swirling whorls.
(9) At the ultrastructural level, all three toxins caused dose-dependent vesiculation of rough endoplasmic reticulum, formation of concentric whorls composed of rough-ER, mitochondrial swelling, large cytoplasmic vacuoles and altered bile canaliculi.

(11) The latter demonstrated minimal disorganization of rough endoplasmic reticulum and occasional lamellar whorls.

(13) On ultrastructural examination, the tumor cells demonstrated paranuclear whorls of intermediate filament aggregates and occasional electron-dense granules.
