Examples of microenvironment in the following topics:
-
- These differences define so-called microenvironments (or microhabitats) that can be distinguished from the immediate surroundings by such factors as the amount of incident light, the degree of moisture, and the range of temperatures.
- For example, the side of a tree that is shaded from sunlight is a microenvironment that typically supports a somewhat different community of microorganisms than would be found on the side that receives regular light.
-
- While the cDNA may properly code for a translatable mRNA, the protein that results will emerge in a foreign microenvironment.
- The internal microenvironment of a prokaryotic cell (pH, osmolarity) may differ from that of the original source of the gene.
-
- SGCs have been found to hold a variety of roles, including control over the microenvironment of sympathetic ganglia.
-
- In the case of cancer tumors, the microenvironment is immunosuppressive, allowing even those tumors that present unusual antigens to survive and flourish in spite of the immune response generated by the cancer patient against his own tumor tissue.
-
- It has been speculated that this localized creeping movement may help sponges adjust to microenvironments near the point of attachment.
-
- Diverse chemoattractant factors promote the recruitment and infiltration of bone marrow cells to the tumor microenvironment where they suppress the antitumor immunity or promote tumor angiogenesis and vasculogenesis
-
- By placing the substrate into a specific shape and microenvironment in the active site, the enzyme encourages the chemical reaction to occur.
-
- These structures, typically called scaffolds , are often critical, both ex vivo as well as in vivo, to recapitulating the in vivo milieu and allowing cells to influence their own microenvironments.
-
- The hematopoietic microenvironment prevails upon some of the cells to survive and some, on the other hand, to perform apoptosis and die.
-
- Coronavirus (CoV) genome replication takes place in the cytoplasm in a membrane-protected microenvironment, and starts with the translation of the genome to produce the viral replicase.
