The phrase "activated specifically by" is correct and usable in written English.
You can use it when describing a process or mechanism that is triggered or initiated by a particular factor or condition.
Example: "The enzyme is activated specifically by the presence of calcium ions, which are essential for its function."
Alternatives: "triggered specifically by" or "initiated specifically by".
Interestingly, this skew toward IL-17 secretion is seen when cells were activated specifically by MBP as well as by polyclonal activation using anti-CD3.
That is, if each component process could be activated specifically by a non-quinpirole treatment, would the simultaneous activation of all three yield compulsive checking behavior?
An adenylate cyclase that is activated specifically by very low concentrations of octopamine has been identified both in homogenates and in intact cells of the thoracic ganglia of an insect nervous system.
This indicates that the UPR pathway is indeed activated specifically by MYOC aggregates.
P2Z receptors are activated specifically by the fully ionized form of ATP (e.g., ATP4−).
Two-photon calcium imaging revealed a small visual area, AF7, that was activated specifically by the optimal prey stimulus.
Interestingly, several transcripts showed either no or minimal induction by wounding, representing therefore genes activated almost specifically by FACs (e.g., 837, 995, 1844, 2815; Figure 3).
Alternatively, it has been proposed that RAGs are activated by glutamine, specifically by α-ketoglutarate generated upon double deamination occurring in the glutaminolytic pathway.
The JAK/STAT signaling pathway was specifically activated by bortezomib, but neither by another proteasome inhibitor (MG132) nor by paclitaxel.
Second, the CPD is inducible, as it is specifically activated by the eukaryotic-specific small molecule inositol hexakisphosphate (InsP6) [6], [6].
The Ataxia Telangiectasia Mutated (ATM) kinase is an essential checkpoint protein that is specifically activated by DNA DSBs and not by SSBs, even at numbers that relax chromatin supercoiling [12].
