Hepatic Gene Expression Patterns in C57BL/6J Mice Fed High-Fat Diets Supplemented with Watermelon Flesh, Arginine, Citrulline, Lycopene, or S-methylmethionine

Creator:: Chen, Mikayla Y.
Abstract:: About one third of Americans have metabolic syndrome, which is characterized by five risk factors related to blood pressure and triglyceride levels and could lead to diabetes and heart disease if left untreated. Watermelon has been shown to exhibit cardioprotective effects due to its high phytochemical content and may act...

Mental Health in Eastern Europe during the COVID-19 Pandemic: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Depression and Anxiety

Creator:: Miller, Saylor O.
Abstract:: Objective: To perform a systematic review and meta-analysis on the prevalence rate of mental health disorders including anxiety, depression, and insomnia during the COVID-19 pandemic in Eastern Europe in the general population, as well as within select sub-populations (i.e., students, general healthcare workers, and frontline workers). Data sources: Articles in PubMed,...

Healthcare for the Houseless; How Lack of Health Equity Disproportionately Shortens the Life Expectancy of the Unhoused

Creator:: Newman, Sophia R.
Abstract:: The national average life expectancy for houseless individuals in the United States is forty seven years, which is thirty years lower than the overall average. I argue that this disproportionately short life expectancy of the houseless is reflective of significant health inequities in the United States that disproportionately impact the...

Gene Structure and Expression of the Rice S-Domain Kinase (SD-RLK) Gene Subfamily

Creator:: Dikeman, Daemon
Abstract:: The S-domain subfamily of receptor-like kinases (SD-RLKs) in plants is poorly characterized and the majority of genes have unknown functions. The goal of this study was to study the expansion of rice (Oryza sativa) SD-RLK subfamily, and characterize gene and protein structure and expression of its members using publicly available...

Changes in Microbial Extracellular Enzyme Activity in Pacific Northwest Old-Growth Forest Soils After Wildfire

Creator:: Hughes, Abby
Abstract:: The soil microbiome drives nutrient transformation in forest soils and plays a critical role in the carbon (C) cycle of these ecosystems. Wildfires cause significant disturbance to ecosystems and are known to alter C sources available to microbes in forest soils. Summer wildfires in the Pacific Northwest are of growing...

Differential Binding and Structural Properties of the WWC Protein Family

Creator:: Rodriguez, Diego Javier
Abstract:: The WWC family consists of three proteins‐ KIBRA/WWC1, WWC2, and WWC3. The three proteins share a similar primary structure and interact with a common set of proteins. Each paralog contains two WW domains which recognize proline‐rich sequences of the type PPxY (P is proline, Y is tyrosine, x is any...

Analyzing the molecular basis of increased enduracidin production in Streptomyces fungicidicus

Creator:: Herinckx, Molly A.
Abstract:: Enduracidin is an antibiotic produced by Streptomyces fungicidicus that is effective against Gram-positive bacteria. Previous work identified seventy-eight mutations in an S. fungicidicus strain that produces a significantly higher level of enduracidin than the wild type strain, ATCC 21013. Eleven mutations were analyzed individually to identify those that may contribute...

Stability of Super Folder Green Fluorescent Protein Under Varying Organic Solvent and Temperature Conditions

Creator:: Ho, Lylan
Abstract:: Obtaining high-resolution structures of biological macromolecules has become one of the biggest challenges in the scientific world. Dr. Wei Kong’s lab is currently working to overcome the limitations of current structure resolution techniques, such as x-ray crystallography and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. Kong’s group hopes to develop a new protein...

Short-Term Lipid Overload in Skeletal Muscle Induces Mild Mitochondrial Membrane Depolarization as a Stimulus for Autophagy Activation

Creator:: Brinck, Isabel M.
Abstract:: Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus is a chronic metabolic condition that impairs insulin stimulated glucose absorption in skeletal muscle, a characteristic phenomenon denoted as insulin resistance. Lipid overload of the mitochondria is linked to the development of insulin resistance and the progression of Type 2 Diabetes. As lipids accumulate there is...

Importance of TLR2 and TLR4 signaling against M. abscessus infection of macrophages and use of mycobacteriophage genomics toward understanding some of the aspects of phage therapy

Creator:: Kapoor, Hannah A.
Abstract:: Mycobacterium abscessus (MAB) is an opportunistic pathogen responsible for infections in immunocompromised or immunosuppressed patients. Even with long-term treatment with multiple antibiotics, MAB pulmonary infections have high rates of treatment failure. Within the host, MAB is phagocytosed by key innate immune cells macrophages. The TLR2 and TLR4 are two critical...
