Sentence examples for weakened adhesion from inspiring English sources

Nevertheless, impairment of cell motility in FRNK-expressing cells is apparently accompanied by increased focal contact formation in membrane ruffles thus suggesting that FRNK could still recruit other signalling or effectors proteins required for assembly of focal adhesion sites, and that decreased motility is due to impaired focal adhesion turnover rather than to weakened adhesion assembly.

The main cause of performance decrease was in the weakened adhesion between the electrodes and membrane interface.

These results indicate a new function for emerin in cell polarization and suggest that laminopathies are not directly associated with cells' inability to polarize, but rather with cytoplasmic softening and weakened adhesion mediated by the disruption of the LINC complex across the nuclear envelope.

Clustering of cadherin contacts strengthens adhesion, while cadherin endocytosis is thought to weaken adhesion.

In line with this, alteration of β1-actin cross-linking has been reported to weaken adhesion and increase migratory activity of cancer cells (Mouneimne and Brugge, 2007).

Inhibiting dynamin function in vitro caused a redistribution of adhesion molecules to the cell rear, consistent with the notion that CME in the dilation weakens adhesions to facilitate forward translocation during neuronal migration.

These data are consistent with the hypothesis that endocytosis in the dilation removes or weakens adhesions prior to somal translocation and may contribute to the slowed migration of these neurons.

The association between CCSs and adhesions in the dilation and relative dearth of adhesion puncta at the rear of migrating neurons (discussed later in the manuscript) suggest that endocytosis may be involved in removing or weakening adhesions prior to somal translocation.

Like other paintings on wooden panels, she said, the "Adoration" had suffered from environmental changes, brought on in part by the hot breath of millions of visitors, that have weakened the adhesion of the painted surface to the aging wood.

The reaction between the HNO3 and aluminum weakened the adhesion of the cathode coatings to the foils, resulting in their separation.

This surface property changes weakened cellular adhesion, resulting in spontaneous cell detachment.
