Homeodomain Transcription Factor Pitx2 is Required for Muscle Maintenance and Energy Homeostasis

Creator:: Lattier, Vera C.
Abstract:: Skeletal muscle, the largest organ in the body in mass, is composed by 600 specialized muscles in humans with unique biochemical, physiological and metabolic identities. Skeletal muscles control body movement, locomotion, and nutrient balance. Muscle formation requires precisely orchestrated environmental signals and regulatory gene networks in time and space. Gene...

A Rationale for Improving Childhood Nutrition: A Program to Enhance the Health of Families Experiencing Food Insecurity in Benton County

Creator:: Wilsey, Anna M.
Abstract:: Food insecurity is a growing public health concern in Oregon. Those that are food insecure often develop strategies, such as reducing the size of meals, cutting out fruits, vegetables and meats or skipping meals entirely, to make food last. One group that is disproportionately affected by food insecurity is families....

Improving User Mental Models of XAI Systems with Inclusive Design Approaches

Creator:: Hamid, Md Montaser
Abstract:: Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) systems aim to improve users’ understanding of AI but rarely consider the inclusivity aspects of XAI. Without inclusive approaches, improving explanations might not work well for everyone. This study investigates leveraging users’ diverse problem-solving styles as an inclusive strategy to fix an XAI prototype, with the...

Microbial Community Dynamics of an Aquifer Biostimulated to Precipitate Calcite

Creator:: Ohan, Juliette
Abstract:: Microbial-induced calcite (CaCO₃) precipitation (MICP) is a well-known natural phenomenon where microbes precipitate calcite in their environment as a result of metabolic activity. It has recently been of interest as a bioengineered technique to stabilize soils for construction applications. A known metabolic pathway to induce MICP is ureolysis, where introduced...

Karl Jordan : a life in systematics

Creator:: Johnson, Kristin Renee
Abstract:: Karl Jordan (1861-1959) was an extraordinarily productive entomologist who influenced the development of systematics, entomology, and naturalists' theoretical framework as well as their practice. He has been a figure in existing accounts of the naturalist tradition between 1890 and 1940 that have defended the relative contribution of naturalists to the...

Role of IL-8 and TIMP-2 on term canine trophoblast migration, invasion, and proliferation

Creator:: Gullaba, Justine Marie
Abstract:: Placental pathologies are not uncommon in dogs. For example, in primiparous bitches, the reported incidence of subinvolution of placental sites is 21% - 100%. Despite years of research in multiple species, the mechanisms regulating late gestation trophoblast behavior in the dog remain unexamined. Therefore, the objective of this study was...
