Sentence examples for total outgrowth from inspiring English sources
Interestingly, in wt explants, the maximum outgrowth was reached with an intermediate concentration of collagen (50%), whereas when the collagen was diluted (25%) or concentrated (75%), the total outgrowth of the leading processes decreased to similar levels (Fig. 6C).
When cultured with soluble Netrin-1, the quantification of the total outgrowth of the leading processes by TUJ1 immuno-staining and thresholding revealed that their growth was reduced about 3 times in TTL−/− explants, after 3 days in vitro (3 DIV) (Fig. 3A, C, D, F and G).
The dorsal surfaces were imaged for quantification of total outgrowth of the neurofilament-positive processes.
We quantified the number of branches and total outgrowth per cell.
The parameters reported include total outgrowth, defined as the sum of lengths of all processes and branches per cell, and maximal process length, defined as the sum of length of the longest process of a cell including all its branches.
This methodology permitted the accurate detection of fine branches extending from thick processes (branch analysis) and determination of the total number of cellular extensions generated by individual cells and all the cells in the images (total outgrowth).
The relative axon growth was calculated by dividing an explant's total axon outgrowth by the average outgrowth for control explants (control genotype and 0 ng/ml BMP4 treatment).
Measurements of total ductal outgrowth length on whole glands (no half glands) and branch density (whole and half glands) were taken as described in [ 26], except with the use of ImageJ imaging software (Wayne Rasband, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, Maryland, USA).
Briefly, the total ductal outgrowth in digital images of glands was determined by drawing a line from the one edge of furthest ductal outgrowth to the opposite edge of furthest ductal outgrowth, and measuring the length of that line in arbitrary units.
Addition of a poly-l-lysine layer (PLL) to the −COOH terminated monolayers significantly increases total neurite outgrowth.
While the total neurite outgrowth of non-polar neurons remains conserved, weaker adhesion of neurites to soft PA substrate facilitates easier retraction, thus enhancing the frequency of "extension-retraction" events.
