The phrase "a subclass of cells" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in scientific or technical contexts, particularly in biology or related fields, to describe a specific category within a larger class of cells.
Example: "In the study of tissue regeneration, researchers focused on a subclass of cells known for their ability to differentiate into various cell types."
Alternatives: "a category of cells" or "a type of cells".
B-1 cells are a subclass of B cells that express CD5 are produced during fetal development.
Single-cell profiling of telomere length and analysis of PCNA expression revealed that proliferating WT cardiac cells possess longer telomeres than non-proliferative cells, indicating that, in WT fish, telomere length defines a subclass of cardiac cells with proliferation potential.
Local macrophages and a subclass of B cells promote retroviral spread in lymph nodes.
Expression of both Amfutsch and Amtau was detected preferentially in a subclass of lamina cells located between the retina and lamina (blue arrowheads in Fig. 5D G).
Our results support the possible involvement of gene amplification and overexpression of the EGF receptor in a subclass of squamous cell carcinomas of the head and neck.
These findings indicate that the medulla contains a new subclass of cells characterized by AmMESK2-expression, which has not been identified by previous anatomic or electrophysiologic studies.
Whether sparsely ciliated cells are less well differentiated or represent a subclass of ciliated ependymal cells is unclear, but the low abundance of CaV channels revealed by patch clamping of these cilia is consistent with a cytoplasmic control of ciliary [Ca2+] in imaging experiments from multiciliated cells.
Tumours are propagated by multiplication of clonogenic cells, which are a subclass of the descendants of transformed cells.
It was recently reported that massive and uniform phosphorylation of H2AX characterizes a subclass of MN in cultured mammalian cells [14].
Cytokeratins are polypeptides that constitute a subclass of intermediate filaments in epithelial cells.
hPaf1 specifically regulates a subclass of genes directly implicated in cell-cycle progression during G1/S, S/G2, and G2/M.
