Sentence examples for opposite complement from inspiring English sources

The frequency of maternal microchimerism (XX chromosomes) identified in pancreatic beta cells of non-diabetic male children has previously been reported to be approximately 0.5% [ 26, 27] and this could have contributed to the higher percentage of insulin-positive cells with an opposite complement of sex chromosomes in male recipients reported here.

Like the dragon, with which it is often associated, the phoenix, or fenghuang, exemplifies the union of yin and yang (polar opposites complementing each other in nature and underlying order within the universe).

In the present study, as in prior reports of non-diabetic humans, we rarely identified macrophages in an islet cross section, the frequency being much lower than that of the detected insulin-expressing cells with an opposite-sex complement of sex chromosomes.

Confocal microscopic analysis In order to further affirm that insulin-expressing cells with an opposite-sex complement of sex chromosomes were indeed a consequence of differentiation from cord stem cells, rather than a consequence of nuclear fusion, pancreases from three of the cord blood transplant individuals were analysed in further detail using confocal microscopy.
