Sentence examples for motility rather than from inspiring English sources

The observed defect is primarily a deficiency in initiation of motility rather than a problem with maintenance of locomotion speed.

Consequently the small colony phenotype is likely to be linked to the reduction in motility rather than to increased autoaggregation.

The effect of Sb on wound healing was associated with an increase in cell motility rather than a stimulation of cell proliferation.

We further characterised the migration defect to be primarily a deficiency in initiation of motility rather than a problem with maintenance of locomotion speed once migration has been initiated.

Lactoferrin chelates iron prompting the bacteria to increase motility, rather than form a biofilm.

This effect resulted from stimulation of fibroblasts motility rather than of their mitosis.

As cAMP waves became faster upon aggregation, transcription remained approximately antiphase with the motility cycle, rather than encroaching on the next motility wave, ruling out a simple time delay as the sole regulator of the transcriptional lag.

The former is probably of minor importance but given the lack of distinction between back and forth mixing movements and short regular antegrade movements, velocity of the magnet pill should be considered a motility index rather than an estimate of progression through the intestine.

There are three main differences between the phenomenological model and IBM simulation the IBM is in 3D while the phenomenological model is 1D; cells in the IBM have a stochastic chemotactic motility model rather than a deterministic one (i.e., σ≠0); and there are extrinsic forces in the IBM when cells collide with each other or environmental boundaries.

We therefore hypothesised that ERK5 signalling may contribute to prostate carcinogenesis by driving cellular motility and/or invasion rather than proliferation.

Since swarming motility requires both, the presence of biosurfactants and flagellar activity, Barken et al. [12] suggested that flagellum-driven surface-associated motility (by means of swarming) rather than directed motility (swimming in response to the sensing of certain metabolites) is required for cap formation.
