Regulation of skeletal muscle mitochondria in response to obesity and exercise in mice and humans

Creator:: Batterson, Philip M.
Abstract:: Skeletal muscle mitochondria are highly plastic organelles, integral to whole-body health. High-fat diet (HFD) and exercise remodel the skeletal muscle mitochondria. Whereby, altered skeletal muscle mitochondrial function is linked to decreased skeletal muscle insulin sensitivity which can be reversed by exercise. However, the mechanisms that contribute to skeletal muscle remodeling...

Ring expansion reactions of alkoxides and their application toward synthesis of large ring hormone models

Creator:: Seitz, Earl Philip
Abstract:: The potassium salts of a series of 1-vinylcycloalk-3-en-l-ols were found to undergo ring expanding [1, 3]-sigmatropic shifts at 25° when dissolved in hexamethylphosphoramide (HMPA) or 1, 2-dimethoxyethane (DME) with 18-crown-6. The yields and reaction rates were compared with those of the corresponding Siloxy-Cope ring expansions. These anionic cases showed about...

Analysis of dating decisions made by college freshmen women while random and steady dating

Creator:: Hartness, Helen Thun
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to seek information regarding issues around which dating decisions were made and some of the steps college freshmen women considered in deciding for or against certain courses of action while random and steady dating. A second more general purpose was to determine if the...

Interaction of selenium with cadmium and mercury in semen and reproductive tissues: in vivo and in vitro studies

Creator:: Alabi, Nathaniel Sigismund
Abstract:: Studies were conducted to investigate the metabolism of selenium (Se) , and the influences of Se on the metabolism of cadmium (Cd) and inorganic mercury (Hg) in rats, and in ram semen in vitro. Se-deficient (-Se) or Se-adequate (+Se) rats were injected intraperitoneally with either ¹⁰⁹CdCl₂ (5 μCi/rat) or ²⁰³HgN0₃...

Sex role discrimination and preference in preschool aged children

Creator:: Sugawara, Alan Iwao, 1939-
Abstract:: The two major purposes of this study were: (1) to test the assumption that the IT Scale for Children (standard-ITSC) can be used as a measure of both appropriate sex role discrimination and sex role preference with preschool aged children, and (2) to extend previous studies in these areas by...

Fundamental Investigations of Electrocatalysis: Mechanistic Implications of Catalyst Electronic Structure

Creator:: Carvalho, O. Quinn
Abstract:: Heterogeneous catalysis modulates the rate and selectivity of reaction processes by stabilizing a series of intermediate states on solid surfaces, facilitating the production of many commodity chemicals modern society relies upon. Conventional, thermal catalytic processes—conducted at elevated temperatures and pressures—source thermal, mechanical, and chemical potential energy from carbon-hydrogen bonds— combustion...

Robust and Efficient Classification of Videos in the Wild

Creator:: Mahasseni, Behrooz
Abstract:: Recognizing human actions in videos is a long-standing problem in computer vision with a wide range of applications including video surveillance, content retrieval, and sports analysis. This thesis focuses on addressing efficiency and robustness of video classification in unconstrained real-world settings. The thesis work can be broadly divided into four...

Computational Approaches for Understanding Combinatorial Gene Regulation

Creator:: Ansariola, Mitra
Abstract:: Gene regulation is a complex mechanism that controls the spatial and temporal expression of genes in a living cell. My dissertation studies focus on two problems. First, tissue-specific gene expression prediction from DNA sequence and chromatin state, and second, the accurate discovery of small over-represented regulatory circuits in gene regulatory...

Techno-economic and Life-cycle Analyses of Glucosamine and Lipid Production from Marine Diatom Cyclotella sp.

Creator:: Xiang, Xuwen
Abstract:: Currently the production of biofuel from algae is not economically competitive with petroleum fuel. However, co-production of high-value products may be able to justify the cost of large-scale algae cultivation. The basic goal of this study is to develop a techno-economic analysis (TEA) and Life-cycle assessment (LCA) for the production...

Addressing Persistent Challenges in Nanotoxicology Exposures : Techniques for in situ Characterization

Creator:: Crandon, Lauren E.
Abstract:: Nanoparticles (NPs), defined by their size (1-100 nm), are increasingly incorporated into commercial and industrial products due to their high surface area and unique properties. They can be designed for specific applications by manipulating composition, size, shape, and surface functionalization. As NP production and complexity increases, there is a need...
