The epithelial surface markers alter during the process of EMT and MET, so antibody-based methods will lose some malignant tumor cells [14, 15].
In fact, the criteria for the diagnosis of infection and sepsis in nonnephrolithiasis patients should not be applied to the cohort of nephrolithiasis patients because the inflammatory mediators may alter during the process of PNL, and traditional diagnostic criteria of SIRS and sepsis lack diagnostic accuracy and are sometimes misleading.
They analyzed maintenance fee payments, prosecution histories, and the full text of patents, which revealed the interactions between inventors and examiners as well as how a patent claim was altered during the process of filing.
The Ni properties, mostly derived from thermal sintering and chemical-induced faceting were substantially altered during the process of methane decomposition, and the properties of the deposited carbon were highly dependent on the presence of Cu as a dopant in NiCuAl catalysts.
In some cases, the mutations differ among histopathologically identical tumors and are altered during the process of tumor progression [ 3].
The pattern of protein conformational structure was altered during the process of apoptosis in a similar manner in the absence and presence of Bax.
The TZL study is focused on exploring the multiple environmental and lifestyles exposures altered during the process of economic transformation of China, solely or in combination with multiple genetic factors, on the gradually increased prevalence of non-communicable chronic diseases.
These data clearly point out that XAF1 expression is not altered during the process of ccRCC development and therefore suggest down-regulation of XAF1 to be irrelevant for ccRCC tumorigenesis.
The monoclonal antibody AC133 recognizes a glycosylated epitope of prominin-1 [ 4], and, interestingly, the glycosylation of this protein may change depending on the state of cellular differentiation, or it can be altered during the process of malignant transformation [ 11, 22, 24].
We also sought to explore the hypothesis that pancreatic CTCs also exhibit nonuniform epithelial marker expression, altered during the process of epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) that is associated with loss of cell cell contacts, tumour cell invasion and metastasis (Polyak and Weinberg, 2009).
However, our semiquantitative data showed that the Notch ligand delta did not alter during the MSCsmiR-1 differentiation process (on days 1, 7, and 14).
