The toxicogenetic effects of a chitosan based hemostatic control patch in rat models

Creator:

Colburn, Andrew J.

Abstract:

Chitosan based hemorrhage control dressings provide effective external hemorrhage control while having few side effects. Known residual contaminants present in chitosan formulations include endotoxins and proteins known to stimulate gene expression in the liver. This study investigated gene expression in the liver using rat bio-compatibility models to gain knowledge regarding...

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...
