Sentences with phrase «for epidermal cell»

Derivation of pluripotent stem cells, either of embryonic origin or following genetic reprogramming, has opened the path for an alternative source for epidermal cell therapy as these cells are both immortal and pluripotent, theoretically capable of providing any requested number of cells of any desired phenotype.

For epidermal cells, the last cell before the hair cell was the one measured as lmax.

Multiplexed genetic screening for epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) gene rearrangements and subsequent biomarker - guided treatment is cost - effective compared with standard chemotherapy treatment without any molecular testing in the metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) setting in the United States.

Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are the preferred treatment option for patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who have mutations in the EGFR gene.

The study, called «Molecular Determinants of Drug - Specific Sensitivity for Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) Exon 19 and 20 Mutants in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer,» and published online in the journal Oncotarget, demonstrates how computer modeling of EGFR mutations found in lung cancer can elucidate their molecular mechanism of action and consequently optimize the selection of therapeutic agents to treat patients.

Morphologically, the DZ in the wild type (WT) is marked by the appearance of epidermal root hairs on the external surface of outer cell files (trichoblast) and the existence of fully differentiated xylem for internal cell files (Dolan et al, 1993; Ishikawa & Evans, 1995; Beemster et al, 2003; Verbelen et al, 2006; Zhang et al, 2010; Mähönen et al, 2014).
