  • Development of an enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for the detection of Zebrafish Interleukin 1 beta upregulation

    Creator:
    Cook, Samuel A.
    Abstract:
    The study and utilization of Danio rerio (Zebrafish) as a model organism has increased greatly in recent decades. They are used in many areas of biological research, but one field that has used them extensively is immunology. Since zebrafish have been found to possess many orthologs to human genes, study...

  • ¡Sí, Se Puede! Yes, You Can! Employing a Personal Testimonio to Show Young Latinx Students and Families That Their Dreams of College are Well Within Reach

    Creator:
    Curtis, Lorenzo Michael
    Abstract:
    From my personal experiences, I’ve noticed that Latinx students and families are most receptive to college-related information communicated as anecdotes. Latinx students are among the most poorly represented demographic at universities nationwide, which I believe can be mitigated through calculated efforts to increase collegiate literacy and understanding. This project is...

  • Antioxidant Effects of Blackberry Pomace on the Health of Transition Dairy Cows

    Creator:
    Estenson, Kaelyn A.
    Abstract:
    Blackberry pomace (BBP), a byproduct from juice processing, is often disposed of in landfills. We propose BBP as an antioxidant-rich feed supplement for transition dairy cows. To explore the effects of BBP on antioxidant status, 24 multiparous dairy cows (5 Holstein and 19 Jersey) were assigned randomly to one of...

  • The Art and Science of Woodturning : A Year in Exploration

    Creator:
    Andersen, Claudia C.
    Abstract:
    Woodturner, artist, and scientist, Claudia Andersen, describes various anatomical features of wood, from the differences between softwoods and hardwoods to the various types of spalting. Over the past year, they have learned and developed their skills in woodturning. In this project, they accompany one woodturned piece with a description of...

  • Identification of the Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 in Fungi

    Creator:
    Pham, Phuong and Freitag, Michael
    Abstract:
    The process of expressing a gene involves not just binding of proteins and enzymes to DNA to produce first RNA and eventually proteins, but rather association of these transcription factors with chromatin and structural proteins called histones. When histone H3 is trimethylated at lysine 27 to produce H3K27me3, gene silencing...

  • Calpain 2 Cleavage of Akt in Glioblastoma Multiforme

    Creator:
    Zhang, Justin
    Abstract:
    Glioblastoma is a malignant brain tumor that has extremely poor prognoses with a 5 year survival rate of less than 5%. The low survival rates of glioblastoma patients is attributed to glioblastoma cells being extremely resistant to radiotherapy and chemotherapy as well as being very invasive. We previously identified calpain...

    Pinckney, Seth H.
    Abstract:
    The nucleocapsid protein (N protein) of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 is known to play an essential part of the virus’ functions. The N protein can protect and package the large 29,903 nucleotide genomic RNA whilst also interacting with structural membrane protein M and the spike protein S....

  • The Role of Syndecan-1 in Arterial Mechanotransduction

    Creator:
    Steyer, Benjamin G.
    Abstract:
    Hemodynamic forces regulate vascular homeostasis and arterial structure through mechanical stimuli by a process called mechanotransduction. Cellular response to mechanical forces involves coordination between cell surface receptors and intracellular signaling pathways. While previous work has focused on the role of integrin receptors in mechanotransduction, little is known about the role...
