Microbial Abundance and Community Analysis in Devil’s Hole, Harrington Sound, Bermuda

Creator:: Denman, Carmen C.
Abstract:: Microbial activity within elevated CO2 and oxygen depleted environments changes with density driven stratification overturn in the seasonally anoxic region of Devil’s Hole, Bermuda. The temperature gradient developed during the summer months creates a natural laboratory to study bacterial and virus population density and microbial community dynamics in the anoxic...

Disturbances in a marine bacterioplankton system drive community assembly towards niche-based processes

Creator:: Vergin, Kevin L.
Abstract:: Over 100 monthly bacterioplankton DNA samples, from each of the surface and 200 m depths at the Bermuda Atlantic Time-series Study (BATS) site, were analyzed for community assembly processes. Correlation networks, filtered for potential autocorrelation artifacts, were constructed for each depth. Network characteristics for the two depths were remarkably similar...

Characterization of a cDNA encoding a procine adipocyte membrane protein

Creator:: Vergin, Kevin L.
Abstract:: In recent years, the general public has recognized the dangers of a high fat diet and are demanding meat with lower fat content. This demand has stimulated research in the growth and regulation of adipocytes. However, despite much effort, no adipocyte-specific plasma membrane markers from any species are available as...

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....

Optimizing the primary forest products supply chain : a multi-objective heuristic approach

Creator:: Hamann, Jeff D.
Abstract:: This thesis is a collection of four submitted manuscripts that present methods to assist forest ecosystem service managers wanting to develop operational sampling, monitoring, and production plans for a set of specific quantifiable ecosystem services, which are formulated as a series of general multi-objective optimization problems. The problems are solved...

Permeability of Various Thyroid Hormone Derivatives and Discovery of a Novel Metabolite

Creator:: Kirkemo, Lisa
Abstract:: In this investigation, six different endogenous thyroid hormone derivatives—T₄, T₃, TA₄, TA₃, T₁-Amine, and N-Acetylated T₁-Amine—were tested to gain insight into their permeability coefficients and efflux ratios across a monolayer of Madin-Darby Canine Kidney (MDCK II) cells. The results indicate that T₃ and T₄ were unable to traverse the membrane...

Assessment of academic advising models in the OSU College of Science based on student and advisor feedback

Creator:: Aljets, Alexandria Dukes
Abstract:: This study sought to explore the differences between the varied academic advising models in the College of Science at Oregon State University through the feedback of its undergraduate students and advisors. Using parallel surveys of students and their academic advisors, it found that the decentralized and centralized models each had...

Activation of Co-stimulatory Molecule OX40 Increases Memory T-cell Function and Cytokine Production in Uveitis

Creator:: Hall, Mark
Abstract:: Uveitis is a serious ophthalmological disorder characterized by intraocular infiltration of inflammatory cells. In most cases, uveitis is derived from the adaptive immune response. More specifically, CD4+ T lymphocytes play an important role in the pathogenesis of uveitis by recognizing uveitogenic antigen and orchestrating the immune response. While it is...

Characterization of the Ovine Prolactin Promoter

Creator:: Tan, Taralyn
Abstract:: Approximately five to eight percent of domestic rams demonstrate a sexual attraction towards other rams, directing no sexual behaviors towards estrous ewes. It has been observed that these male-oriented rams (MORs) have a greater abundance of prolactin mRNA than female-oriented rams in the medial preoptic area of the anterior hypothalamus...
