When there is a reduction of renal function, its half-life is prolonged because of lower levels of degradation [ 25].
Inhibition of apoptosis by SMC1S966A in HCT116 cells was not as much as that in 293T cells probably because of lower levels of expression of the protein.
More studies are needed to investigate whether geldings have poorer bone quality than stallions because of lower levels of male sex hormones.
At discharge from the program, the non-polypharmacy group (<5 drugs) had improved outcomes in Activities of Daily Living, Instrumental Activities of Daily Living and fewer falls, which was mediated because of lower levels of frailty.
The binding to DILP5 was weaker, and could be more easily observed on a higher exposure of the far-western blot (Fig. 3B), possibly because of lower levels of expression of dilp5 compared to dilp2 (Broughton et al., 2005).
Recently, it has been observed that cells defective in either isocitrate dehydrogenase1 or 2 (ICD1, ICD2) also give rise to cancer probably because of lower levels of α ketoglutarate (Parsons et al. 2008; Zhao et al. 2009; Yan et al. 2009; Murugan et al. 2010).
However, it has been asserted that interference in the colour-naming emotional Stroop task may occur because of lower-level lexical effects [20] or general attention capture [21] rather than the direct conflict effects present in the traditional Stroop.
More than half of the Chinese population (53.41% of 1.3 billion in 2009 [ 8]), still live in rural areas where residents cannot access the same level of health services as their urban counterparts, which is partly because of a lower level of economic growth, lack of amenities, and poor health service capacity in rural areas [ 9].
While the association of cigarette smoking with stillbirth incidence has been well studied, evidence of the impact of smokeless form of tobacco on stillbirths is more limited because of the lower level of attention afforded to smokeless tobacco use.
However, the C cO activity per mg of mitochondrial protein was ~3-fold less than that in the other strains (140 e·s−1·mg−1 compared with 380 e·s−1·mg−1) because of the lower level of C cO per mg of protein.
Because of the lower level of LCR expression in the presence of miR394, the partial post-transcriptional silencing of LCR should be responsible for the phenotypes of plants under the salt and drought stresses.
