Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor Activation and the Prevention of Type 1 Diabetes

Creator:: Newman, Matthew
Abstract:: The aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) is a ligand-activated transcription factor that is an important regulator of immune responses in various disease models. In the non-obese diabetic (NOD) mouse model of type 1 diabetes, activation of this receptor leads to suppression of the autoimmune response and limits immune cell infiltration of...

Designing surveys to investigate the impacts of wildfire smoke on human health

Creator:: Attridge, Samuel J.
Abstract:: Wildfires are increasing in frequency. One area of research interest centers on the pollutants within wildfire smoke, including but not limited to particulate matter and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. These chemicals are associated with exacerbation of respiratory, cardiovascular, dermatological, reproductive, oncological, gastrointestinal, and infectious conditions. As wildfires becoming increasingly prevalent, it...

How the Face of American Medicine May Change Post Covid-19

Creator:: Madison, David J.
Abstract:: The last two years of the Covid-19 pandemic have brought significant changes to global and American societies, as well as to our healthcare system. Millions of Americans were laid off and left without insurance, some areas of medicine suffered financial catastrophe with a fall in patient volumes, others were victims...

Genotyping Cytochrome P450 1B1*3(Phase I) and Glutathione S-transferase Mu 1 null (Phase II), Metabolizing Enzymes in a [14C]Benzo[a]pyrene Human Micro Dosing Study

Creator:: Luo, Yun L.
Abstract:: Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) have been studied for their carcinogenic toxicity. PAHs are formed by incomplete carbon combustion. Benzo[a]pyrene (BaP) is an IARC classified Class 1 Human carcinogenic PAH. New studies are conducted to gain a better understanding of PAHs and how to reduce exposure. Glutathione S-transferase M 1 (GSTM1...

Relationship between parasite load and diet quality in two desert bighorn sheep metapopulations in southern California

Creator:: Gibson, Sarah
Abstract:: The increased severity of unseasonal drought conditions in the American Southwest have resulted in herbivorous species, like the desert bighorn sheep (Ovis canadensis nelsoni), receiving lower quality forage in their diet at less reliable frequency. The Mojave Desert and the Peninsular Mountain ranges also contain large variations in elevation, which...

Error Propagation in Sap Flow Measurements Using the Heat Ratio Method

Creator:: Miller, Jackson T.
Abstract:: Accurate estimation of the amount of water used by trees is important for a variety of agricultural applications. There are several current methodologies for measuring sap flow and water use in trees, however the heat ratio method has been identified as the ideal due to its ability to measure low...

Development of Simple, Rapid, and Sensitive qPCR Assay for the Detection of Pseudocapillaria tomentosa in Danio rerio Tissue Samples

Creator:: Ramras, Monique A.
Abstract:: Pseudocapillaria tomentosa is a nematode that parasitizes Danio rerio, causing major disease that affects the economic commodities of fish industries and destroys experimental results at research facilities. There is a critical need for a rapid and sensitive diagnostic assay to test for P. tomentosa in D. rerio populations. PCR primers...

New Strategies to Develop Hidden Markov Models Combining KEGG and Pfam

Creator:: Gupta, Sonica
Abstract:: Profile Hidden Markov Models utilize the information stored in a multiple sequence alignment such as its residues and conserved regions to assign probabilities at each column. This indicates areas in the sequences where similar functionality is observed. These probability weights are then combined to assign a sequence score, which is...

Generation of expression plasmids to study the function of the PRC2 subunit Suz12 in Fusarium graminearum

Creator:: Park, Catherine
Abstract:: The Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2) catalyzes genome transcription repression through the methylation of lysine residue 27 in the amino terminal region of histone 3 (H3K27me1/2/3) [2], [7]. PRC2 is made up of three highly conserved core subunits: Kmt6, Eed, and Suz12. Accurate distribution of PRC2 is essential for proper...

¡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...
