Hypothalamic Leptin Gene Therapy Does Not Prevent Ovariectomy-Induced Bone Loss in Rats

Creator:: Jackson, Melanie A.
Abstract:: Post-menopausal women are at an increased risk for osteoporosis due to increased bone resorption associated with estrogen deficiency. Subcutaneous administration of leptin, a hormone produced primarily by adipocytes, attenuates bone loss in the ovariectomized (ovx) rat, an animal model for post-menopausal bone loss. Leptin has both direct peripheral and indirect...

Effects of Estrogen Receptor Blockade on Skeletal Response to Alcohol in Ovariectomized Rats

Creator:: Wagner, Lindsay A.
Abstract:: Heavy alcohol consumption reduces peak bone mass in growing rodents and can lead to bone loss in both adult rats and humans. In contrast, moderate alcohol consumption appears to have a bone sparing effect in post-menopausal women. Alcohol has been reported to increase aromatase activity and influence estrogen receptor (ER)...

Adoptive Transfer of Purified Hematopoietic Stem Cells Protects Against Bone Loss Following Lethal Radiation

Creator:: Deyhle, Richard Thomas, Jr.
Abstract:: The objectives of this research is to advance human health by evaluating interventions to minimize the detrimental effects of acute whole body gamma irradiation on bone metabolism, bone architecture and bone reconstruction using a mouse model. Total body irradiation (TBI) followed by adoptive transfer of bone marrow from donor animals...

A stratigraphic approach to characterize the deposition and storage of organic matter in reservoir sediments

Creator:: Stratton Garvin, Laurel E.
Abstract:: The relationship between carbon burial and sedimentation in reservoirs is unknown, exposing gaps in our fundamental understanding of the transport, processing, and deposition of sediment and organic matter in fluvial and lacustrine systems and contributing to uncertainty in our understanding of the net impact of dams to the global carbon...

Effects of Galactooligosaccharides on the Gut Microbiota in Lactose Intolerant Individuals

Creator:: Angima, Gloria
Abstract:: Lactose intolerance is a common food intolerance that occurs because of a post-weaning deficiency of lactase, an enzyme that cleaves the glyosidic bond of lactose. About 75% of the world's population is lactose intolerant. Common symptoms of lactose intolerance are abdominal pain, bloating and diarrhea. ~25% of the world’s population...

DHA and Low-fat Low-cholesterol Diets as Treatment Strategies for Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease

Creator:: Lytle, Kelli Anne
Abstract:: Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is characterized by the accumulation of excess neutral lipids within the parenchymal cells of the liver. The primary etiology is diet-induced and most often exists as a comorbidity with obesity, metabolic syndrome, and/or Type 2 Diabetes. The development of excess liver lipid can be self-limiting...

Biological remediation strategy for immobilizing Ag-110m and Cs-134 in soils

Creator:: Whitlow, Jesse Lynn
Abstract:: After contamination of soil in Japan due to the Fukushima Daiichi accident, there has been an increased interest in remediation of radiologically contaminated land. This study investigated the efficacy of a new biological remediation technology developed by Earthfort, an Oregon based company to hold radionuclides at the soil surface. Cesium-134...

Examining the Effects of High Vitamin E Diets on the Rodent Skeleton

Creator:: Kasper, Katherine G.
Abstract:: The primary goal of my study was to evaluate the effects of high dietary vitamin E on the rodent skeleton. The outcomes from my study assess the impact of high intakes of vitamin E and increased concentrations of its metabolite, carboxy ethyl hydroxy chromanol (CEHC), on bone turnover and skeletal...

Dose response of zebrafish exposed to gamma radiation

Creator:: Haskins, Hillary Kate Marlane
Abstract:: Space radiation biology is an emerging field of research with a focus on improving the health and safety of astronauts in low-Earth orbit (LEO) and deep-space missions. Eye health is especially important to astronaut functionality. Recent studies have found an increased risk of cataract formation in astronauts with higher lens...

Creating Anthropomorphic Models with Mesh Phantoms in MCNP to Simulate Mammography

Creator:: Garcia, Jacqueline K.
Abstract:: Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women as it accounts for about 25% of all female cancer cases. Studies have shown that early detection of breast cancer increases the chances of a positive prognosis amongst patients therefore it is crucial to provide accurate diagnosis tools in routine exams....
