The phrase "activated an increase" is not correct and may cause confusion in written English.
It could be used in contexts discussing the initiation of a rise or growth in a specific area, but it lacks clarity.
Example: "The new policy activated an increase in employee productivity."
Alternatives: "triggered a rise" or "caused an increase".
As a result, when retinal input is activated, an increase of interspike intervals is observed with a subsequent decrease and delay in the peak response.
In RA, monocyte lineage cells are aberrantly activated: an increase in macrophage infiltration of the synovium promotes inflammation via the production of TNF and other proinflammatory cytokines, and an increase in osteoclast activity promotes erosion of bone [ 19].
When assayed in the heterologous cell lines, both isoforms activate an increase in intracellular Ca2+ [18], [18] while K3 also stimulates a cAMP increase [16].
The results provide partial support for our hypothesis, indicating that increasing spreading activation in emotional memory networks activates an increasing number of somatic markers and this is then reflected in greater physiological activity at the time of recalling the memories.
These limitations notwithstanding the results do provide support for the postulate that increasing spreading activation within emotional memory networks may also activate an increasing number of somatic markers, which lead to greater changes in heart rate and skin conductance.
To explore further the influence of dendritic architecture on spike firing, we examined the influence of activating an increasing number of secondary or tertiary apical branches in the CA2 model.
After the carbon being activated, a significant increase of quaternary-N was observed, which was mainly transformed from pyridinic-N, -C═NH or PhNH2, and pyrrolic-N.
In rats with severe heart failure, the circulating renin-angiotensin system was activated, with an increase in plasma renin activity (3.5-fold, p < 0.05) and plasma angiotensin II concentration (threefold, p < 0.01).
In the present study, we report that frog parathyroid cells possess Ca2+-activated Cl− channels and that these channels can be activated by an increase of [Ca2+]i through the mediation of the arachidonic acid cascade.
Among the genes responding to glucose in strains devoid of PKA some are also controlled by a redundant signalling pathway involving PKA activation, while others are not affected when PKA is activated through an increase in cAMP concentration.
In nontransformed cells, AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) acts as an intracellular energy sensor that is activated by an increase in cellular AMP levels.
