Genetic selection for avian embryo development at an elevated temperature

Creator:: Colvin, Wendy R.
Abstract:: A genetic selection study to determine the effects on egg hatchability and subsequent chick performance of Japanese quail eggs incubated at a 38.9° C (102° F) dry bulb temperature (Selected, S) when compared to 37.8 C (100°F) (Control, C) was conducted for four consecutive generations. Eggs from a randomly mated...

Sex Disparities in Adult and Childhood Cancer Incidence

Creator:: Fisher, Stephanie A.
Abstract:: Studies indicate that many cancers occur more frequently in adult males than females. This male predominance must either be due to disparate environmental exposures or innate, biologic mechanisms, or a combination of the two. Using data and statistical software from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) Program, male:female incidence...

A Comprehensive Guide to Effective Communication between Veterinarian and Client: From a Terminal Diagnosis to an End-of-life Discussion

Creator:: Thomas, Victoria
Abstract:: During the end of a pet’s life its owner is often in emotional turmoil over how to feel and what to do. A veterinarian can alleviate some of this grief by effectively communicating during a terminal diagnosis and end-of-life discussion. Effective communication includes acknowledging the unique human-animal bond between client...

“My Whole World”: Teen Moms Navigating Identity and Social Discourse

Creator:: Tanner, Laura C.
Abstract:: Social discourse presents teenage childbearing as a “serious problem” that results in significant harm and expense to teenage mothers, their children, and society. Although the discourse of teenage childbearing has been multiple, overlapping, and contested, it has resulted in negative stereotyping and stigmatization of teenage mothers. Much of these stereotypes...

Understanding polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) toxicity and inflammation in human bronchial epithelial cells

Creator:: Valdez, Teresa
Abstract:: There is increased emphasis on understanding cumulative risk from the combined effects of chemical and non-chemical stressors as it relates to public health. Recent animal studies have identified pulmonary inflammation as a possible modifier and risk factor for chemical toxicity in the lung after exposure to inhaled pollutants; however, little...

Impact of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons on Barrier Function Toxicity in 3D Lung Model from Normal and Asthmatic Donor Cells

Creator:: Huynh, Celine T.
Abstract:: Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are known to cause adverse health effects in the human lung. Here, we evaluated biomarkers relevant for PAH toxicity in a 3D human primary bronchial epithelial cell (HBEC) model collected from normal and asthmatic donors. We previously found that PAHs decrease cellular barrier function integrity, which...

Use of Artemisinin to Treat Mycoplasma haemolama Infection in Llamas

Creator:: Puccetti, Jessica N.
Abstract:: Mycoplasma haemolamae is associated with mild to marked anemia in stressed, immune-suppressed, and debilitated animals, and may be found in low numbers in healthy animals. The continued presence of the organism, detectable by polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based assay, may be associated with an underlying problem, such as stress or immune-suppression...

Luteinizing hormone receptor-mediated cell proliferation in canine T-cell lymphoma cells

Creator:: Flint, Camryn
Abstract:: Luteinizing hormone (LH) is secreted in low-amplitude pulses in sexually intact dogs to stimulate synthesis of estrogen and testosterone in females and males, respectively. LH is mainly considered a reproductive hormone, but LH receptors (LHR) have been identified in non-reproductive tissues, including in canine lymphoma and isolated canine T-cell lymphoma...

Gene-specific antibiotic development: Evaluating effectiveness and investigating antibiotic-resistant Escherichia coli mutants of phosphorodiamidate morpholino oligomers

Creator:: Puckett, Susan E.
Abstract:: Phosphorodiamidate morpholino oligomers (PMOs) are novel antisense drugs in the early stages of development. These synthetic DNA mimics contain the same bases found in DNA and anneal to RNA in a complementary fashion. PMOs have been designed that target genes responsible for producing essential proteins in organisms such as Escherichia...

Functional consequences of microRNA regulation by polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in 3D human bronchial epithelial cells

Creator:: Mans, Michael-Andres D.
Abstract:: Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are a class of contaminants ubiquitous in the environment and result from the incomplete combustion of fossil fuels. Many PAHs have been identified as procarcinogenic, and are metabolized to form DNA adducts; however, other mechanisms also may contribute to toxicity and help explain differences in toxicity...
