Age-related alterations in transcriptional regulation of hepatic glutathione synthesis : remediation by R-alpha-lipoic acid

Creator:: Shenvi, Swapna V.
Abstract:: Glutathione (GSH) is the predominant low molecular weight thiol antioxidant in liver tissue. GSH plays an important role in maintaining the intracellular thiol redox ratio as well as detoxification of electrophiles and xenobiotics. Aging leads to a significant decline (35%; P ≤ 0.05) in hepatocellular GSH levels. Using young (2-4...

Environmental complex mixtures modify benzo[a]pyrene and dibenzo[a,l]pyrene-induced carcinogenesis

Creator:: Courter, Lauren A.
Abstract:: Human exposure to the carcinogenic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) benzo[a]pyrene (B[a]P) and dibenzo[a,l]pyrene (DB[a,l]P) is through environmental complex mixtures, such as urban dust particulate matter (UDPM) and diesel exhaust (DE), however the potency of these PAH within a mixture is not established. To determine the effect of these mixtures on...

Influence of wetland landscape structure of shorebirds wintering in an agricultural valley

Creator:: Taft, Oriane Williams
Abstract:: Understanding how wetland birds use habitat is pivotal to developing successful and beneficial conservation strategies. Although it has been an ardent topic in forest research for some time, how species interact with the spatial patterning of habitat across a landscape (i.e., landscape structure) has been more or less neglected in...

A study of antimutagenicity in yogurt

Creator:: Sudarshan, Nadathur R.
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to identify antimutagens in yogurt active against the experimental colon carcinogen, N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG). Our initial experiments showed that acetone extracts of yogurt, or milk fermented by various lactic acid bacteria were antimutagenic against MNNG and 3,2'-dimethyl-4-aminobiphenyl (DMAB) in the Ames test (Salmonella typhimurium TA...

Chlordecone pretreatment promoted subcellular distribution of scavenger receptor class B type II to murine hepatic microsomes ; mass spectrometry detected hepatic soluble cholesterol binding proteins and comparison of protein iTRAQ ratios using ESI QTOF and MALDI TOF/TOF

Creator:: Scheri, Richard C.
Abstract:: Chlordecone belongs to the class of persistent organochlorine pesticides that are remarkably resistant to environmental degradation. Even though their use was banned in the United States in 1978, these compounds can still be detected in both humans and wildlife throughout the world. Previous work has shown that the pretreatment of...

Consequences of coumaphos and Varroa destructor on drone honey bee sperm quantity

Creator:: Delaney, Deborah Anne
Abstract:: The number of drones and genetic diversity among drones are essential components to a well mated queen. Varroa destructor preferentially parasitizes drone brood, and is thought to be responsible for the loss of feral populations that once provided additional drones for honey bee mating areas. It is necessary to use...

Development and application of a new passive sampling device : the lipid-free tube (LFT) sampler

Creator:: Quarles, Lucas W.
Abstract:: Contaminants can exist in a wide range of states in aqueous environments, especially in surface waters. They can be freely dissolved or associated with dissolved or particulate organic matter depending on their chemical and physical characteristics. The freely dissolved fraction represents the most bioavailable fraction to an organism. These freely...

Molecular genetics and enzymology of secondary metabolite biosynthesis. I, Isolation of natural product biosynthesis gene clusters from symbiotic marine organisms. II, Enzymology of blasticidin S biosynthesis

Creator:: Grochowski, Laura L.
Abstract:: Molecular genetic and enzymological techniques have been employed to study secondary metabolite biosynthesis. These investigations have focused on two projects: the cloning and heterologous expression of biosynthetic gene clusters from unculturable marine organisms and the characterization of individual enzymes involved in the biosynthesis of the antifungal agent blasticidin S. The...
