Importantly, a quantitative balance between these two fibroblast activities and the general responsiveness of cancer cells to fibroblast signals largely determined the co-culture ratio for a particular cell line pairing.
Additionally, TEM1 and TEM2 have been showed as direct repressors of FT, participating in a quantitative balance between CO (CONSTANS) and TEM to determine the threshold level required for flowering [19].
We hypothesized that a quantitative balance between these different network components regulated cell response.
Here, we demonstrate how ESCs from various genetic backgrounds respond to the LIF signal by assessing the quantitative balance in the activation of the intracellular signaling pathways.
Here, we assessed the quantitative balance between cholinergic and nitrergic neurons representing the main limbs of excitatory and inhibitory colonic motor innervation, respectively.
This in vitro phenomenon does not seem to depend on the patient or the tumor cell types, but on the reciprocal quantitative balance between tumor cells and lymphocytes.
This mechanism may not be merely based on quantitative balancing of pro-angiogenic and anti-angiogenic signals, but could imply a vessel-type-specific combination of Sema3C receptor components.
Thus, both Ang-1 and Ang-2 have pivotal, but different functions in the regulation of angiogenesis depending on the quantitative balance between these factors and other angiogenic factors.
Stability of EPSC amplitudes during short-term plasticity, which is due to the quantitative balance between priming of synaptic vesicles and number of vesicles released, was identical in presynaptic terminals of each group.
If the liver is injured and needs to regenerate itself, the quantitative balance of GSK-3β and Snail in hepatocytes is temporarily disrupted and reverts to a state in the developing liver, thereby allowing hepatocytes to proliferate like hepatoblasts.
