Sentence examples for regulation of size from inspiring English sources

This might also suggest a role for ERK in fiber type-related regulation of size.

To obtain insight into the contribution of ROS in the fiber type-related regulation of size, future experiments need to determine the concentrations of different types of free radicals and their scavengers in high and low oxidative fibers by systematically assessing the numerous endogenous sites and sources that produce ROS and antioxidants.

Because of these differences in the endocrine biology of the two species, work on the regulation of size in Manduca has focused mostly on the physiology of the critical weight and the role of JH in controlling ecdysone secretion, while in Drosophila most work has focused on the role of insulin signaling and the relative roles of members of the insulin signaling network such as FOXO and TOR [ 12].

We propose that the control of reaction temperature is a mean for easy regulation of particle size and size distribution during the growth process.

Indeed, lack of myostatin during the embryonic period may have a permanent effect on cardiac size and/or regulation of cardiac size since it was recently demonstrated that myostatin is dynamically regulated during embryonic development [28].

We provide evidence showing that this pathway is involved in regulation of cell size, indicating that a Cdk1-regulated cell size checkpoint exists in metazoans.

These pathways may not be directly involved in the regulation of organ size, however, because other signals appear to compensate organ size by increasing cell size when cell number is experimentally reduced and vice versa (Crickmore and Mann 2008).

In this study, we detected 12 loci that are involved in the regulation of grain size, using rice lines with largest grain size in Japanese stock (Figs. 2i-l, 3c).

We also find that cellular levels of unphosphorylated Cdk1 increase exponentially in relation to cell size, suggesting a role for this mechanism in the regulation of cell size.

For example the developmentally important MRFs have been implicated also in regulation of fibre size, and can be up-regulated by resistance exercise.

Our study attributes a similar role to VIN, mainly enabled by its regulation of spikelet size and hexose-to-sucrose ratios, and a direct influence of spikelet size on grain weights.
