Creator:: Hopkins, Dawn Marie Weseli
Abstract:: During extreme exercise, athletes experience increased inflammation that is similar to the acute phase response. Endurance athletes, distance runners in particular, are also more susceptible to compromised iron stores. This study evaluated inflammation, immune function and iron status in athletes completing a 50K ultramarathon. Twenty-two well-trained distance runners, 11 males...

Creator:: Stoner, Christopher S.
Abstract:: Aerobic organisms have evolved many sensory mechanisms that allow response to oxidants in the environment. One area of interest is the relationship between the activity of the tumor suppressor protein p53 and the redox state of thioredoxin. Human p53 activity is severely compromised in budding yeast lacking thioredoxin reductase. Evidence...

Creator:: Norby, Tyler S.
Abstract:: Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are significant pollutants in aquatic environments. Many are carcinogenic and lead to DNA fragmentation and adduct formation in marine and freshwater organisms. Previous research demonstrates that rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) compensate to long-term PAH dietary exposures and reduce the DNA damage. The aim of this study...

Creator:: Uchendu, Esther Eyiuche
Abstract:: Oxidative stress that occurs during cryopreservation may be reduced by the addition of antioxidants. Vitamin E (Vit E), Vitamin C (Vit C), glutathione (GSH), lipoic acid (LA), glycine betaine (GB) and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) were applied at four steps of the PVS2 vitrification protocol (pretreatment, loading, rinsing, and regrowth). Shoot tips...
