Sentence examples for bag cells from inspiring English sources

Realistic pouch bag cells are used as test vehicles.

Egg-laying behavior in Aplysia is mediated by a set of peptides, including egg-laying hormone (ELH), which are released by a cluster of identified neurons, the bag cells.

The ELH genes are expressed, not only in the bag cells, but in an extensive system of neurons distributed in four of the five ganglia of the central nervous system.

The classic features of neurosecretory function are the production and release of large amounts of hormone(s): the Bag Cells of Aplysia dedicate 50 70% of protein synthesis to production of the peptide Egg Laying Hormone [71].

In part, this decrease is due to the refractory period that bag cells enter following release.

Bag cell neurons from the marine mollusk Aplysia californica are widely used in neuropeptide studies.

Previous studies have shown that bag cell neurons contain insulin receptors.

Individual bag cell neurons were then isolated and loaded into the main reservoir of the microfluidic device.

Since bag cell neurons are involved in reproduction, this refractory period is consistent with the fact that the animals can only lay eggs periodically.

Each device reported here contained 10 20 bag cell neurons that were removed from the animal and cultured for 24 h prior to stimulation experiments.

In this study, nine different groups of bag cell neurons, each in separate devices, received increasing periods of K+ stimulations and peptide release was detected.
