Oxidative stress in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis : the role of cellular senescence and glutathione

Creator:

Beilby, Pamela R.

Abstract:

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a devastating neurological disorder characterized by neuromuscular junction decay, motor neuron death, progressive paralysis, and eventually death of the individual, usually by respiratory failure. Oxidative stress is a prominent hallmark of the disease and is often accompanied and exacerbated by mitochondrial dysfunction and neuroinflammation. This...

Gene expression in the peripartum canine placenta

Creator:

Fellows, Elizabeth Jane

Abstract:

This research investigated gene expression in the canine placenta during the peripartum period. Previous studies have recognized molecular changes that occur in the placenta around the time of placental release in other species, but no study has looked at gene expression in the late gestation canine placenta. Of particular significance...

Masters Thesis
Transcriptomic analysis using high-throughput sequencing and DNA microarrays

Creator:

Fox, Samuel E.

Abstract:

Transcriptomics and gene expression profiling enables the elucidation of the genetic response of an organism to various environmental cues. Transcriptomics enables the deciphering of differences between two closely related organisms to the same environment and in contrast, enables the elucidation of genetic responses of the same organism to different environmental...
