In comparison to aCD4+ NKT cells, nCD4+ NKT cells exhibit: 1) higher expression of the differentiation markers CCR7 and CD62L, 2) lower expression of the NK cell markers CD161 and CD94, and 3) are more amenable to effector function reprogramming.
Moreover, the tightly regulated cell type specificity of miR expression makes these molecules amenable to modulating function of individual cell types.
The mouse is amenable to many motor function tests.
Collectively, these findings suggest that subjects with impaired endothelial function may be more amenable to improvement in NO function as a result of training than healthy subjects.
Here, we describe a biomimetic human skeletal muscle culture system ('myobundle') amenable to studies of contractile function and biochemical changes in response to a wide range of stimuli.
One organ (or gene) has an existing function but at some stage modification of the feature for the initial function makes it amenable to modification in a new role and this allows the organism to move into a new environment or adopt a new ecological lifestyle.
Many special functions are amenable to this analysis, and we give several examples of application: modified Bessel functions, parabolic cylinder functions, Legendre functions of imaginary variable and Laguerre functions.
Those in intertidal settings are well studied for two reasons (1) salinity reduces plant diversity and inundation/exposure regimes structure composition, facilitating manipulative studies of vegetation-elevation patterns and (2) large expanses of monotypic vegetation are amenable to analysis of ecosystem functions (productivity, nutrient dynamics, food web support, and landscape connectivity).
DC functions amenable to the aging process include their production, their homing to peripheral tissues, their responsiveness to 'danger signals', their migration from the periphery to central lymphoid organs and their direct interaction with T cells in the priming process.
These patterns are very much a function of the specifics of reservoir drawdown and are thus potentially amenable to management as part of a dam removal.
