The phrase "a function of sensitization" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts related to psychology, biology, or any field discussing responses or adaptations to stimuli.
Example: "The increased pain sensitivity in patients can be seen as a function of sensitization to chronic pain."
Alternatives: "an effect of sensitization" or "a result of sensitization".
Surface spreading of intergranular corrosion (IGC) on Al 4.4Mg alloys in NaCl solution was modeled at the micrometer scale, using a continuum granular scale model as a function of the degree of sensitization (DoS).
Additionally, it has been suggested that the lack of sensitization of psychostimulant-induced increases in striatal dopamine in laboratory tests of human cocaine addicts may be a function of the contextual cues present during testing whereby drug-paired cues at the time of drug delivery are required for the expression of sensitization.
Interestingly, the observed sensitization was enhanced in a dose-dependent manner as a function of TRAIL concentration.
This might represent a mechanism of sensitization of N202.1A breast cancer cells towards chemotherapeutic drugs and irradiation caused by the abrogation of AP-2 function.
The fact that sensitization can occur in locations distant from the sensitizing stimulus (duodenum) suggests a central site of sensitization.
Allodynia is a clinical reflection of sensitization, and both central and peripheral sensitization are important insofar as they both influence attacks and perhaps disease progression [14, 15].
In conclusion, we here demonstrate compartmentalized distribution of Wnt-signalling components in adult skin, up-regulation of Wnt5a in hyperproliferative and differentiation-deficient epidermis, and identify sensitization for interferon as a novel function of Wnt signalling.
Inhalation of ground-level ozone can cause health problems such as damage to lung tissue, reduction of lung function, and sensitization of the lungs to other irritants [5].
The BHT postulates that the evolutionary function of habituation and sensitization throughout phylogeny is to rapidly maximize an organism's overall readiness to cope with new stimuli and to minimize unnecessary energy expenditure.
The larger numbers of subjects in this study and the extension to cover any filamentous fungus have resulted in a negative association between lung function and culture, irrespective of sensitization status.
