For instance, reduction of BRCA1 expression results in increased sensitivity to the DNA damaging agents [48], whereas overexpression of BRCA1 increases resistance to the DNA damaging agents [49].
More likely, they said, is that the presence of fat tissue encourages tumor growth or increases resistance to treatment.
As a reinforcing filler it greatly increases resistance to wear and abrasion.
The accumulation of deposits in heat exchanger surfaces increases resistance to the heat flow.
Smaller guard cell length likely increases resistance of water vapor through the stomata.
The fiber length slightly increases resistance: the length of anchoring thereof in the concrete mass is greater.
Plasma treatment with flurocarbon imparts lower surface energies to nonwoven fabric surface which increases resistance of treated fabric against blood.
Mutation of surface residues to charged amino acids increases resistance to aggregation and can enable reversible unfolding.
Ectopic overexpression of AtWRKY33 increases resistance to necrotrophic fungal pathogens Botrytis cinerea and Alternaria brassicicola, concomitant with reduced expression of JA-regulated gene PDF1.2 (Zheng et al. 2006).
As the concentration of HAuCl4 increases, resistance between electrodes also increases due to the complexation of metal ion with DNA structures [32, 33].
Being an outcome of both lithology and climate, natural vegetation generally increases resistance to erosion although its absence, perhaps after fire, may heighten it.
