In Utero Exposure to Arsenic and Mercury : Epigenome-Wide Associations and Newborn Health Outcomes

Creator:: Cardenas, Andres
Abstract:: Mercury and arsenic are known developmental toxicants and environmental exposures are ubiquitous worldwide from natural and anthropogenic sources. Prenatal exposure to both contaminants are independently associated with adverse perinatal health outcomes and latent disease risk that could be in part mediated by epigenetic reprogramming events. Fetal programming events involving DNA...

The Influence of Vineyard and Winery Nitrogen Supplementation on Chardonnay and Pinot Noir Winemaking and Wine Quality

Creator:: Ruppel, Meghan L.
Abstract:: Nitrogen is a crucial nutrient required by yeast to successfully complete alcoholic fermentation. In particular, the concentration of yeast assimilable nitrogen (YAN) influences fermentation kinetics and the production of a range of volatile aroma compounds, both desirable and undesirable. YAN is naturally present in the grape, but producers can boost...

Identifying Differences in the Release of Bioactive Milk Peptides Across the Intestinal Tract Between Term and Preterm Infants

Creator:: Beverly, Robert L.
Abstract:: Premature birth interrupts the typical development of the human fetus, leaving the infant born with underdeveloped gastrointestinal and immune systems. Preterm infants have reduced stomach acidity, reduced digestive protease activity, more permeable intestinal membranes, impaired innate and adaptive immune response, and poor microbiome development. Due to these factors, preterm infants...

The genus Caenorhabditis : a system for testing evolutionary questions

Creator:: Raboin, Michael J.
Abstract:: Caenorhabditis elegans is arguably the best understood animal on the planet. Used for over 50 years to study development, we have a vast amount of knowledge of the inner workings of this worm. Our knowledge is incomplete, however, without placing this organism in its evolutionary and ecological context. In this...

Alkylation kinetics of the human retinoid X receptor α using cysteine as a local probe

Creator:: Vanegas, Juan Manuel
Abstract:: The unfolding of human retinoid X receptor α in the presence of the denaturant guanidine HCl was studied using stopped-flow absorbance spectroscopy. The protein's four native cysteine residues were mutated to obtain four single-cysteine mutants, each with the other three cysteine residues mutated to alanine. The thiols of these hRXRα...

Sesame oil increases plasma γ-tocopherol and inhibits γ-tocopherol metabolism in humans

Creator:: Lee, Sangeun
Abstract:: In rats, sesame lignans increase plasma γ-tocopherol concentrations and inhibit γ-tocopherol degradation to its metabolite γ-carboxyethylhydroxychroman (γ-CEHC). To test if sesame lignan consumption inhibits γ- tocopherol metabolism in humans, muffins prepared with either corn oil (control) or sesame oil and an equimolar mixture of deuterium labeled d6-α- and d2-γ- tocopheryl...

Modulation of metabolic syndrome by soy isoflavones : in-vitro and in-vivo models

Creator:: Luo, Ting
Abstract:: Metabolic syndrome is a problem affecting people around the world. In a number of studies, soy intake has been documented to possess antidiabetic and anticardiovascular effect. My project is focused on the impact of the intake of compounds found within soy, the isoflavones, their impact on metabolic syndrome symptoms, and...

Metabolic Effects in C57B/6J Mice Fed a High-Fat Diet Supplemented With Walnuts, Raspberries and Other Whole Foods

Creator:: Miranda-Garcia, Omar
Abstract:: Health benefits obtained from consumption of fruits and vegetables have the potential to improve the lifestyle of individuals. The walnut is a polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA)-rich whole food that is readily available in the U.S and has been shown to potentially reduce risk of Metabolic Syndrome. Furthermore, consumption of polyphenol...

Changes in body composition and metabolic syndrome risk factors : response to energy-restriction, protein intake, and high intensity interval training

Creator:: Pilolla, Kari D.
Abstract:: Metabolic syndrome (MetS) and abdominal obesity (AbOb) increase the risk of developing cardiovascular disease and diabetes. Energy restriction (ER), highprotein (PRO) intake and high-intensity interval training (HIT) can independently improve MetS and AbOb. However, ER reduces metabolically active lean body mass (LBM) in addition to body fat (BF). Purpose: To...

Metabolic and Renal Effects of Consumption of Five Phytochemicals in High-Fat Fed C57BL6J Mice

Creator:: Hansen, Allysa
Abstract:: A significant body of research demonstrates that phytochemical intake favorably influences hepatic metabolism via a number of different biological mechanisms. Other research has shown a positive effect of certain phytochemicals on kidney health, specifically in ameliorating symptoms of kidney disease. The current research used three separate studies that tested the...
