cell plugs med.

Пожалуйста, помогите перевести: cell plugs or xenografts
Выражение встречается в следующем контексте: To convert the semi-quantitative IHC information into a concentration amenable for input into a computational model, a control slide containing cell plugs or xenografts with known receptor and/or ligand expression levels can be compared to the patient sample.
Заранее спасибо

Возможно речь идет о ксенотрансплантате. И перевод будет - пробковые или пористые клетки.

ИМХО: Клеточные пробки
Вот здесь посмотрите: http://www.ro-journal.com/content/6/1/6

Methods
Samples from cancer cell cultures or xenografted tumours were encapsulated in agarose plugs. The cell plugs were then irradiated, incubated to allow them to repair, and evaluated by PFGE, caspase-3, and histone H2AX activation (γH2AX).
.........
Figure 5. Reduction of apoptosis improved the estimation of DNA repair in NP18 xenografts. PFGE was performed in unirradiated (black bars) and irradiated (45 Gy; white bars) cell-plugs obtained from xenografts (NP18) incubated in absence or presence of zvd-fmk (10 μM).

Может поможет. Удачи!
