Phytochemical characterization of Fagonia indica and its effects on MCF-7 breast cancer cell line

Creator:: Kumbi, Yadano
Abstract:: Phytochemicals from the genus, Fagonia, have been attracting increasing attention due to their potential beneficial effects on human health, particularly, anti-cancer properties. Certain Fagonia species contain various types of phytochemicals such as saponins, alkaloids, cardiac glycosides, flavonoids, terpenoids, and tannins. In this study, we investigated the phytochemical composition of a...

Telomere Binding Protein Antagonists for Stem Cell Therapy

Creator:: VanGarde, Aurora
Abstract:: Understanding the mechanisms through which stem cells self-renew is important for the development of new therapies to repair and restore damaged tissue. This research explores possible mechanisms of telomere mimic action and seeks to validate a new assay for evaluating telomere binding antagonists and studying the effects of telomere binding...

Looking for LOV : Location of LOV1 function in Nicotiana benthamiana cells

Creator:: Rutledge, Patrick
Abstract:: To initiate the defense response to an invading pathogen, plants utilize an array of immune receptors to recognize virulence effectors. Virulence effectors are released by pathogens to suppress immune responses in target hosts. These effectors are recognized by a family of resistance proteins known as nucleotide-binding leucine-rich repeat (NB-LRR) proteins....

Using Acetylene as a Low-cost and Effective Methanogenesis Inhibitor in Single Chamber Microbial Electrolysis Cells

Creator:: Trujillo, Stephanie
Abstract:: Microbial electrolysis cells (MECs) for hydrogen production exhibit great advantages over many other biohydrogen production techniques in terms of versatility of substrate and hydrogen yield. However, hydrogen scavenging by methanogens put forward a great challenge to the application of the single chamber MECs when using mixed culture. Various strategies were...

Genetic analysis of interactions between the plant hormones auxin and ethylene

Creator:: Barckley, Kristi K.
Abstract:: Auxin and ethylene regulate many important aspects of plant growth and development and are essential to the plants survival. They help regulate such diverse processes as cell elongation, growth of adventitious roots, fruit growth, germination, and a variety of other processes. Few studies have examined how the hormones auxin and...

MatTek™ EpiIntestinal™ a 3D Small Intestine Epithelial Cell Culture Model For In Vitro Screening in Dietary Chemopreventive Agents

Creator:: Raymundo, Wilfrido E.
Abstract:: Testing the many potential chemoprevention agents from dietary sources in animal or human models is expensive and takes a long time. In vitro models can be useful for screening the right compounds to use in larger studies. We tested the MatTek™ EpiIntestinal™ small intestine epithelial 3D cell culture model for...

Influence of flower native status, color, and morphology on visiting preferences of bees in riparian areas of eastern Oregon

Creator:: Roof, Samantha M.
Abstract:: Effectively restoring or conserving bee habitat requires a better understanding of the complex relationship between bees and flowering plants, but information about bee preferences is currently lacking. The purpose of this study was to examine bee-plant associations in a riparian area of Starkey Experimental Forest and Range (Starkey) in eastern...

Generation of Kisspeptin Cell Lines to Investigate the Sex Steroid-Mediated Initiation of Puberty

Creator:: Jacobs, Dakota C.
Abstract:: Mammalian female reproduction requires preovulatory surges of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) from neurons in the preoptic area (POA) of the hypothalamus, initiated by elevated estradiol (E₂). Rising E₂ activates a subset ofsexually dimorphic Kisspeptin neurons in the female, located in the anteroventralperiventricular nuclei (AVPV). Conversely, E₂ negative feedback is mediated by...

Toxicological Investigations of Two Poisonous Plants, Tansy Ragwort (Senecio jacobaea) and Summer Dandelion (Hypochaeris radicata) with Potential Therapeutic Agents, Quillaja and Milk Thistle

Creator:: Trejo, Elyssa A.
Abstract:: Stringhalt is a disorder in horses characterized by high stepping with hyperflexion of the hind limbs. This disorder has been reported from the US, Australia, Chile, and Brazil. In most instances, the disease manifests itself in horses exposed to summer dandelion (Hypochaeris radicata). Stringhalt has been induced by feeding summer...
