Understanding polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) toxicity and inflammation in human bronchial epithelial cells

Creator:

Valdez, Teresa

Abstract:

There is increased emphasis on understanding cumulative risk from the combined effects of chemical and non-chemical stressors as it relates to public health. Recent animal studies have identified pulmonary inflammation as a possible modifier and risk factor for chemical toxicity in the lung after exposure to inhaled pollutants; however, little...

De novo Discovery of Novel Long Noncoding RNAs in the North American Beaver

Creator:

Kashyap, Amita

Abstract:

Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are RNA molecules that are at least 200 nucleotides long and do not encode proteins. lncRNAs have roles in gene regulation, chromatin epigenetics, and molecular scaffolding. In light of mounting evidence implicating species-specific noncoding RNAs and gene regulatory mechanisms in species adaptations, it is reasonable to...
