Interestingly, BV6 pretreatment of tumor cells significantly augmented the percentage of monocytes migrating towards tumor cells.
Treatment of T. gondii with H2O2, which triggers apoptosis in mammalian cells, yeast and protozoa [ 19– 22], augmented the percentage of TUNEL-positive parasites moderately (Fig. 1a, b) (p < 0.05, Student's t test), indicating that oxidative stress may promote cell death in T. gondii.
Here, we observed a similar beneficial effect of TCC in augmenting the percentage of NK cells in TCC group relative to control group in NSCLC survivors.
A TUNEL (terminal deoxyribonucleotidyl transferase mediated dUTP-digoxigenin nick end labeling) assay demonstrated that the autophagy inhibitors did not augment the percentage of TUNEL-positive cells.
However, controversy exists in this area, as augmenting the percentage of saturated fats in the diet without affecting the sugar content does appear to result in functional impairment.
The presence of MSCs accelerated and facilitated entry of the seeding mechanism into the pores and of new bone formation within the scaffold, augmenting the percentage of bone filling in the pores by a mean value of 180%.
The ability of apoptotic cell therapy to promote bone marrow engraftment, down-regulate alloAb secretion, and augment the percentage of Treg was mediated through TGF-β released likely by phagocytes during their interaction with the injected apoptotic cells and/or directly by the apoptotic cells [ 78].
The deuterium substitution decreased the radioactivity level of [18F]5 in the bone of mouse, augmented by the percentage of specific binding to PBR in the rat brain determined by ex vivo autoradiography.
Carcass weight and dressing percentage (DP) augmented linearly (P ≤ 0.031) as level of ZH increased in diet.
Moreover, immature and the relative percentage of mature granulocytes were augmented while megakaryocytes did not significantly change (Fig 1F, Supporting Information Fig S5B and C).
