Although all these mechanisms are likely to be 'pathway capacity'-dependent, and hence decrease the standard deviation of ERK phosphorylation, only the MKP1 induction can increase the correlation as a consequence of a decrease in the standard deviation of ERK phosphorylation without changing the standard deviation of MEK phosphorylation because MKP1 directly dephosphorylates ERK, but not MEK.
We saw a decrease in the standard error of the variables estimation as population size increased because of reduction of genetic drift effect.
In addition, the subsequent gradual increase in the correlation and decrease in the standard deviation of the ERK phosphorylation level suggest the existence of ERK phosphorylation-dependent negative feedback regulation for the phosphatase activity.
Using H-MISO and a monolayer cell sandwich system with V79 and 9 L cell lines, Hlatky et al. could detect a systematic decrease in the standard deviation of grains per cell when they examined populations of cells further away from the nutrient and oxygen source [ 9].
Generally, sampling cells from more extreme tails by decreasing the fluorescence cutoff for selection increased power; however, mutations causing very large increase or decrease in the standard deviation of the fluorescence phenotype were found to require a particular range of cutoff percentages to maximize power.
Finally, Panel D shows that a decrease in the standard deviation (sigma ) of the bank's investment return shifts to the left the reaction function of the central supervisor and shifts down the reaction function of the local supervisor, leading to a reduction in the equilibrium effort of at least one of the two supervisors although in the numerical results both (e_{c}^) and (e_{l}^) go down.
This was reflected by a decrease in the standard reduction potential of variant H103Y compared to the wild-type protein.
The placebo group had a 20% increase in the standard uptake value ratio from baseline to end of treatment, while the lower dose of treatment exhibited only a slight increase of 5% and the high dose showed a decrease in the standard uptake value ratio of 15% [ 24].
Decreases in the standard deviation of the Gaussian curve [ Fig. 4(D,E)] demonstrate that MTs began to increasingly extend along similar pathways during Wnt5a treatment (p = 0.0313, Wilcoxon matched-pairs test).
