The phrase "activated in this study" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used when discussing specific variables, processes, or mechanisms that have been initiated or engaged as part of a research study.
Example: "The gene was activated in this study to observe its effects on cell growth."
Alternatives: "engaged in this research" or "triggered in this analysis".
The expressions of MAPK14, MAP3K5, and CASP9 in hollow gold nanoshells treated HAECs decreased to less than 0.5-fold to those of the normal control cells, which implied that the genes involved in apoptosis cascade were not activated in this study.
We note with considerable interest that the parts of the right putamen and the medial insula activated in this study correspond closely to the parts activated in our earlier study of romantic love (Bartels & Zeki 2004 [2]).
However, from the survived clusters in different comparisons, we did not find relevant brain regions activated in this study.
However, from the survived clusters in different comparisons, we cannot find relevant brain regions activated in this study.
Some members of the bZIP family, such as OsbZIP09 and OsbZIP27, which were activated in this study under mild WD, were also reported to be induced by dehydration stress [ 50].
In contrast, the right posterior medial portion of the SII activated in this study may be the PIVC (Eickhoff et al., 2006) that has been reported to be involved in own-body perception (Lopez et al., 2008).
Since both MPF and ROCK inactivated MYPT in somatic cells and that MPF activated RhoA in this study, our hypothesis to explain the dependence of MPF on MAPK and ROCK for myosin recruitment is that (1) MPF inactivates MYPT via RhoA and (2) only when MYPT is inactivated can the elevated MAPK activity activate MLCK and thereby myosin II.
Indeed, read depth is the key determinant of statistical power for this ASE approach and the analysis of rested and activated samples in this study was initially motivated by the need to increase the expression level of specific transcripts.
Areas in the dorsal rostral medulla, including all the areas activated in our study have been proposed to be particularly important.
Presumably the areas that sense leg movements during hopping or wing movements during whirring were specifically activated in our study.
Thus, the amygdala which is strongly activated by fear (Noesselt et al. 2005 [9], Morris et al. 2002 [10], Hadjikhani et al. 2008 [11]) and by aggression (Beaver et al., 2008 [12]) was not activated in our study.
