Generation of proof of concept molecules neutralizing monoclonal antibodies to IL17Cm

Creator:: Calhoun, Drew W.
Abstract:: Inflammation is one of the first, most important responses of the immune system when presented with infection and is mediated primarily by eicosanoids and cytokines. The goal of this research was to generate monoclonal antibodies against murine IL17C, a poorly characterized cytokine involved in inflammation and linked to inflammatory conditions....

A preliminary assessment of post-fire dissolved organic carbon concentrations in the McKenzie River basin, Oregon

Creator:: Hyatt, Charles
Abstract:: In recent decades, the occurrence of large, high severity wildfires has increased substantially in many parts of the world, including the western United States. These fires have the potential to impact water quality, aquatic ecosystems, and downstream communities for many decades. As such, it is increasingly important to understand the...

DemoFlow: Low-Cost Flow Cytometry for Increased Access to Medical Diagnostics

Creator:: Stole, Kyler M.
Abstract:: Flow cytometry is a highly-extensible technology for performing rapid multi-parametric particle analysis. The use of flow cytometry has proliferated with the advent of smaller, intuitive, and more affordable instruments, along with a perpetual increase in research and medical applications. However, the technology is still largely inaccessible due to cost and...

An Exploration of the Relationship between Direct, Tactile Contact with Nature in the Workplace and Consequent Creative Performance

Creator:: Molvi, Hamza
Abstract:: An understanding of creativity’s emergence is critical as our society faces new challenges. Despite a growing body of research emphasizing nature’s influence on the creative process, we now spend record amounts of time indoors, disconnected from nature. Biophilic design has been afforded as a panacea, with research supporting the incorporation...

Molecular Analysis of Tomato Seed Germination and Tomato Production in Almería, Spain

Creator:: Nguyen, Theresa T.
Abstract:: Tomato is considered to be one of the most important vegetables for its value as a source of nutrients and antioxidants, and as a model crop for biological research, including seed biology. In this thesis, tissue-specific gene expression and its regulation in tomato seeds were analyzed to understand the mechanisms...

Cytokine expression in Danio rerio (zebrafish) in response to TLR-7 agonist - Imiquimod

Creator:: Paternostro, Kevin Alan
Abstract:: Utilizing Danio rerio (zebrafish) as a model organism has gained popularity recently, however a lack of research into their immune response pathways had led to the discovery of subclinical infections, and has potentially confounded results. We conducted a study to determine the cytokine expression from TLR activation in order to...

Involvement of PP6 in Dephosphorylation of Bcl11b, a Tumor Suppressor Transcription Factor

Creator:: Parker, Chelsea R.
Abstract:: The purpose of this honors thesis research project is to investigate the molecular causes of childhood and infant T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemias. T-cells are the work horses of the immune system, and like any organ, must develop properly to be fully functional. Improper development of thymocytes into T-cells can lead...

A quantitative analysis of three-dimensional contact guidance by breast cancer cells

Creator:: Krnacik, Emma A.
Abstract:: Exploring and quantifying the parameters regarding contact guidance may provide valuable insight to the precise mechanisms controlling cell movement, especially in a three-dimensional environment. The objective of this project was to quantify the relationship between MDA-MB-231 cell morphogenesis and the geometry of the cell’s local microenvironment, which was modeled by...

Relationships of hydraulic traits and wood morphology in Douglas-fir branches from wet vs. dry regions and sites

Creator:: Flamenco, Herman Noe, Jr.
Abstract:: It is well known that water transport in xylem depends on its anatomy, but recent research shows that water transport through different parts of the growth ring are affected by the water potential in different ways. The goal of the project was to learn the extent to which wood morphology...

Sex differences in triple extensor rate of torque development may explain variance in vertical jump performance

Creator:: Wile, Dylan
Abstract:: Background: While males generally outperform females in athletic tasks, the underlying mechanisms for this difference remain unclear. Explosive neuromuscular performance of the triple extensors, often investigated via rate of torque development (RTD), is crucial for athletic tasks such as a vertical jump. Purpose: To assess sex differences in rapid torque...
