Examining the Effects of High Vitamin E Diets on the Rodent Skeleton

Creator:: Kasper, Katherine G.
Abstract:: The primary goal of my study was to evaluate the effects of high dietary vitamin E on the rodent skeleton. The outcomes from my study assess the impact of high intakes of vitamin E and increased concentrations of its metabolite, carboxy ethyl hydroxy chromanol (CEHC), on bone turnover and skeletal...

Integrating Climate Change Adaptation into the Management of Alaska’s Kenai River Watershed

Creator:: Reilly, Melissa S.
Abstract:: The impacts of climate change are being observed worldwide. However, some regions and context specific situations make particular areas more vulnerable to the impacts than others. Alaska’s Kenai River Watershed (KRW) is on the front lines of climate change and may be especially vulnerable to the impacts due to distinct...

Effectual Entrepreneurship and its Application to a Microfluidics R&D Startup

Creator:: Brown, Matthew E.
Abstract:: An inventor seeks to leverage his unique means in order to create and commercially exploit new technologies. Until new technologies are sufficiently developed, they have the theoretical potential for commercial exploitation in a wide range of markets. Those opportunities are limited by physical bounds that are often only discovered through...

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...

Prevalence and association of depressive symptoms with physical disability and long-term care use among older American Indians

Creator:: Schure, Marc B.
Abstract:: Health officials have recently been sounding the alarm that depression will soon surpass many of the major medical conditions in causing disability among adults. Recent demographic and health trends are generating public health concern about depression. First, the prevalence of chronic conditions has dramatically increased over the last several generations....

The Role of Bone Marrow Adipose Tissue in Bone Loss During Spaceflight and Simulated Spaceflight in Rodents

Creator:: Keune, Jessica Ann
Abstract:: The reduction in mechanical load imparted on the body during spaceflight presents unique physiological challenges. One detrimental and seemingly unavoidable response to microgravity is rapid bone loss. This adaptation is hazardous not only to astronaut health, but to the success of long-duration exploration-class missions. Skeletal adaptation to spaceflight in astronauts...

Effects of 12 months of voluntary alcohol self-administration on intracortical bone remodeling in a rhesus macaque model

Creator:: Gaddini, Gino W.
Abstract:: Background: Alcohol is a nonessential nutrient widely consumed throughout the world. Chronic alcohol abuse is associated with numerous adverse skeletal effects. However, prior to this study, the effects of alcohol abuse on intracortical bone remodeling in an animal model had not been investigated. Reduced intracortical bone remodeling could impair repair...

Hypothalamic Leptin Gene Therapy Does Not Prevent Ovariectomy-Induced Bone Loss in Rats

Creator:: Jackson, Melanie A.
Abstract:: Post-menopausal women are at an increased risk for osteoporosis due to increased bone resorption associated with estrogen deficiency. Subcutaneous administration of leptin, a hormone produced primarily by adipocytes, attenuates bone loss in the ovariectomized (ovx) rat, an animal model for post-menopausal bone loss. Leptin has both direct peripheral and indirect...

Adoptive Transfer of Purified Hematopoietic Stem Cells Protects Against Bone Loss Following Lethal Radiation

Creator:: Deyhle, Richard Thomas, Jr.
Abstract:: The objectives of this research is to advance human health by evaluating interventions to minimize the detrimental effects of acute whole body gamma irradiation on bone metabolism, bone architecture and bone reconstruction using a mouse model. Total body irradiation (TBI) followed by adoptive transfer of bone marrow from donor animals...

Langmuir-Pockels Trough with Double Wall Couette for Measuring Interfacial Rheology of Insoluble Surfactants

Creator:: Turner, Christine
Abstract:: Insoluble surfactants are unique molecules that have the ability to manipulate interfacial properties, becoming useful in numerous applications such as detergents, wetting agents, emulsifiers, foaming agents, dispersants, and more. Interfacial rheology is a field that attempts to characterize the flow properties of insoluble surfactants by exerting a stress on the...
