Investigating the Paleoseismic Potential of Small, Southern Cascadia Lakes

Creator:: Ross, Ann Elizabeth Morey
Abstract:: Marine and coastal sedimentary archives show that the Cascadia Subduction Zone can generate great earthquakes of ~M9, most recently in 1700 CE, yet we still know little of the impacts of these events inland of the Pacific coast. Inland lakes have recently been exploited for their use as paleoseismic records...

Studies on the glutathione dependent protection of the cell nucleus against lipid peroxidation

Creator:: Tirmenstein, Mark A.
Abstract:: Lipid peroxidation is believed to be an important process in the development of cellular injury. In addition to the degradation of biological membranes, increasing evidence indicates that lipid peroxidation can alter the structure and function of DMA. The present study examines the peroxidation of nuclear membranes and the capacity of...

Vitamin E and the alpha-tocopherol transfer protein during zebrafish embryogenesis

Creator:: Miller, Galen W.
Abstract:: Vitamin E was first described in 1922 as an unknown factor required for impregnated rats to carry their offspring to term. In fact, when vitamin E was chemically characterized it was given the name "tocopherol" derived from the Greek: tokos = childbirth; phero = to bear; and –ol, indicating an...

The microtubule system and the canalicular mdr2 P-glycoprotein play a role in the intracellular transport and biliary secretion of α-Tocopherol and phosphatidylcholine in rats and mice

Creator:: Mustacich, Debbie J.
Resource Type:: Dissertation

Vitamin E and K interactions : investigating mechanisms of reduced vitamin K status in response to excess vitamin E

Creator:: Farley, Sherry Mae
Abstract:: The primary goal of my studies was to elucidate the mechanisms for the well-recognized interaction between two nutrients, vitamins E and K. The outcomes from my studies assess mechanisms for adverse effects of vitamin E and provide novel information on mechanisms for vitamin K homeostasis. These findings will provide information...

Targeted development of antivirals against influenza A and respiratory syncytial virus

Creator:: Lupfer, Christopher
Abstract:: Influenza A and Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) are both enveloped, negative strand RNA viruses which infect the respiratory mucosa of animals and humans. Despite decades of research and development of antivirals and vaccines, both of these viruses continue to be a major health concern throughout the world. The focus of...

Geometric reasoning in an active-engagement upper-division E&M classroom

Creator:: Cerny, Leonard Thomas
Abstract:: A combination of theoretical perspectives is used to create a rich description of student reasoning when facing a highly-geometric electricity and magnetism problem in an upper-division active-engagement physics classroom at Oregon State University. Geometric reasoning as students encounter problem situations ranging from familiar to novel is described using van Zee...

A measurement of the neutral pion form factor by means of the reaction [pi]o - e+ e- y

Creator:: Gumplinger, Peter
Abstract:: The slope parameter "a" of the π ° - electromagnetic transition form factor was obtained from a measurement of the partial branching ratio of the Dalitz decay π° - e⁺ e⁻ y into high invariant-mass electron-positron pairs. The experiment was carried out at the TRIUMF cyclotron laboratory. A beam of...

Vitamin E Protects Developmental Gene Expression and Metabolic Networks in Zebrafish Embryos

Creator:: Head, Brian A.
Abstract:: Vitamin E (VitE) is necessary for vertebrate embryonic development. VitE prevents lipid peroxidation (LPO), which requires detoxification by cellular antioxidant systems subsequently involving reducing power derived from energy metabolism. Thus, VitE protects metabolic networks in the developing embryo and the integrated gene expression networks compensating for and impaired by LPO-induced...

Assessment of the neuropathological consequences of vitamin E deficiency

Creator:: McDougall, Melissa Quin
Abstract:: Cognitive impairment, or cognitive decline, a noticeable and measurable decline in cognitive abilities (e.g. memory and learning) that exceeds those attributed to normal aging, represents an early symptom of neurodegeneration and increased risk for progression to more severe dementias, such as Alzheimer's disease (AD). While the complex etiology of these...
