Sentence examples for molecular target it from inspiring English sources

Although phage display-derived peptides show promise in the in vivo tumor targeting and molecular imaging of cancer, due to a peptide's small size and relatively low affinity to its molecular target, it is still a great challenge to identify the molecular target that contributes to the peptide binding in vitro and in vivo.

Given that addictive drugs are chemically very diverse and each has a distinct molecular target, it is surprising that they induce symptoms that are indistinguishable.

With so many different agents developed for the same molecular target, it is rather difficult to choose the right agent for clinical evaluation.

If all mixture constituents act on the same molecular target, it is thought that one chemical can be replaced by an equal fraction of an equi-effective concentration (e.g. an EC50) of another, without diminishing the overall combined effect.

Although S is a relatively smaller molecular target, it holds a greater variety of functions, and might have changed more often because the numerous selection conditions targeted a wide variety of functions.

With unspecific molecular targets, it is unlikely for bacteria to develop resistance against photodynamic processes.

Unlike ethanol, cocaine acts primarily on a single class of molecular targets: it inhibits monoamine transporters, thereby increasing synaptic levels of monoamines including dopamine, serotonin, epinephrine, and norepinephrine.

Because these chemicals interact with well-defined molecular targets, it is thought that the same effect can be provoked by replacing one chemical with an equivalent dose of another.

The beta crystal form of Imatinib has revolutionized the treatment and continued management of CML through precise molecular targeting; it appears to be more effective than Interferon-alpha (IFN-α) in terms of cytogenetic response (CR) and progression-free survival (PFS), with fewer side effects for patients in the chronic phase [ 4] and is also cost-effective compared to alternative therapy [ 5].

Because these chemicals interact with well-defined molecular targets, it is thought that one chemical can be replaced totally or in part by an equal fraction of an equieffective concentration of another without diminishing the overall combined effect (Loewe and Muischnek 1926).

Whereas curcumin has several molecular targets, it may be promising for the treatment of psoriasis interacting with the main pathogenetic pathways of the disease, namely, T cell-mediated inflammation via the inhibition of nuclear factor kappa B (NF- κB) [ 15– 17], keratinocyte proliferation, inhibiting phosphorylase kinase (PhK) [ 18– 20], and angiogenesis [ 21– 23].
