Sentence examples for dissemination ability from inspiring English sources

However, increasing expression of an Osp fails to fully restore ospC mutants with expected dissemination ability [15], leading us to hypothesize that OspC is a dissemination-facilitating factor.

Background: Pancreatic cancer, the fifth leading cause of adult cancer death in Western countries, lacks early detection, and displays significant dissemination ability.

Loss of RAB25 expression could therefore increase the invasion and dissemination ability of tumor cells in patients, and consequently increase the risk of recurrences and development of lymph node or distant metastases.

Recently it has been proposed that the activation of the epithelial to mesenchymal transition provides tumor cells with stem-like features and dissemination ability, traits needed to carry out the metastatic process [ 35, 36].

In the context of infectivity and dissemination, the ability of integrin-binding deficient mutants to cross endothelial layers in vivo and exit the vasculature was quantified in multiple tissues by performing an ID50 determination after intravenous inoculation.

Some of these traits are directly referred to the community level (averages of cover, species richness or diversity of life forms) and others to species level, but expressed as the relative cover in the communities (percentages of life forms, succulence, evergreeness, woodiness, lateral spread ability, dissemination type).

Recent studies [43] [47] suggest that even normal cells can disseminate and dissemination from primary tumors can actually precede the ability to form metastases; additional genetic or epigenetic changes are then required for the subsequent production of metastases.

In [17], by using a mixed-integer linear programming optimization method, the author proposes a data dissemination strategy with the ability of satisfying the communication requirements while minimizing the energy consumption.
