Developing the Zebrafish (Danio rerio) As a Model to Evaluate the Toxicity of Chlorinated and Non-Chlorinated Solvents

Creator:: Wenning, Matthew
Abstract:: Chlorinated and non-chlorinated solvents are used in a variety of industrial processes and as a consequence, they have become environmental contaminants as well. Because of this, they lead to both occupational and environmental exposures. Exposure to these compounds can potentially result in various forms of neurological damage with a wide...

Degradation of Extracellular Matrix Proteins by Bovine Embryonic Urokinase-Type Plasminogen Activator

Creator:: Hansen, Lance
Abstract:: The bovine blastocyst is composed of a one-celled layer of trophectoderm surrounding a fluid filled sac called the blastocoel and a ball of cells called the inner cell mass (ICM). On Day 8 (Day 0=fertilization) in bovine embryos, endodermal cells leave the ICM, migrate over the extracellular matrix (ECM) on...

Computing occupation times with integral equations

Creator:: Meredith, Nick
Abstract:: Consider a simple Markov process on [0,T]. The occupation times were extensively studied in the case of T increasing to infinity. Here we develop a method of computing the distribution for occupation times when T is small via integral equations and integral transforms.

Investigating the age-related loss of endoplasmic reticulum stress response

Creator:: Fallahi, Anahita
Abstract:: The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a crucial organelle in the cell where protein folding and processing occurs, and conditions that negatively affect ER functions are highly detrimental to the cell. The accumulation of unfolded/misfolded proteins in the ER leads to a condition known as ER Stress. The ER has developed...

In the aftermath of intimate partner violence : a focus on positive psychosocial living

Creator:: Scott, Sophia L. M.
Abstract:: Intimate partner violence is the systematic, intentional use of physical, emotional and/or sexual abuse that one person in a domestic relationship exerts over their partner in order to maintain power and control. In our society, we tend to focus on the external evidence of intimate partner violence such as the...

“SeW: A Search for Selenosulfide Bonding” and “Severity of Damage Inflicted on Intercellular Disulfide Bonds as a Result of UV Radiation”

Creator:: Dutcher, Kendall
Abstract:: Part 1: White muscle disease (WMD), a degenerative muscle disease brought on by a deficiency of the essential trace nutrient selenium, is thought to be mediated by the protein Selenoprotein W (SeW). In its relationship with WMD, SeW, like many selenoproteins, binds to glutathione, serving some purpose in redox mechanisms...

Expression of prolactin in feline mammary adenomas and adenocarcinomas

Creator:: Trummel, Danielle K.
Abstract:: Mammary tumors are the third most common tumor in cats after cutaneous neoplasia and lymphosarcoma. More than 80% of feline mammary tumors are adenocarcinomas, which are similar to human mammary adenocarcinomas in their biologic behavior and histologic characteristics. Despite treatment with radical mastectomy, feline mammary adenocarcinoma is associated with a...

Method development in in vitro immune response

Creator:: Huber, Jacob
Abstract:: The AhR is a ligand-activated transcription factor that mediates the potent immunosuppressive effects of TCDD. AhR-dependent changes in gene expression appear to alter the differentiation of CD4+ T cells to induce a population of CD4+CD25+ T regulatory cells (Tregs) that suppress the immune response. Ascertaining if and how the AhR...

Location of the neutral axis in wood beams

Creator:: Holm, Sarah C.
Abstract:: It is commonly accepted that for the analysis of wood beams, the neutral axis coincides with the centroid of the beam. Although this assumption is used in analysis, wood is not an isotropic material, as it has different elastic properties in the tangential, radial and longitudinal directions, nor is it...

A critical analysis of the globalization of English in the U.S. and abroad

Creator:: De Lora, Emily
Abstract:: Although thousands of volunteers from the United States go abroad each year to teach English, many are unprepared for their experiences. Undergraduate students teaching in a foreign country seem to lack training in educational methodology or foreign relations that would prepare them for teaching and living abroad. This project was...
