Investigating synergistic effects of climate and land-use change on the pollination of a tropical plant, Heliconia tortuosa

Creator:: Dowd, Claire E.
Abstract:: Loss of biodiversity due to the effects of climate and land-use change may have implications for pollination services. Disruption to phenological synchronicity or a reduction in the overlap in species distributions of plants and their pollinators may reduce floral resources to pollinators, forcing them to move farther distances. If pollinators...

Studies Toward the Synthesis of Natural Product Scaffolds

Creator:: Lusk, Jason S.
Abstract:: Part 1: A Diels-Alder Approach to the Synthesis of Novel Analogues of the Natural Product Siamenol Due to the prevalence of biaryl motifs in natural product synthesis, the Carter research group has been exploring the utility of a Diels-Alder approach to biaryl synthesis. The Diels-Alder approach involves a [4+2] cycloaddition...

Impact of Vitamin E Deficiency on Hepatic Gene Expression of CRAL_TRIO Family Proteins in a Premier Vertebrate Animal Model

Creator:: Watt, Alexander T.
Abstract:: Vitamin E (vitE) is a group of lipid-soluble antioxidants- of which alpha-tocopherol is the most biologically active and only form considered to be an essential nutrient. Through preferential binding and trafficking, the alpha-tocopherol transfer protein (α-TTP) regulates the concentration of vitE in the body. The impact of vitE deficiency on...

Addressing ALS: Corroborating the Methodology of Studying the P2X7R Complex

Creator:: Veytsman, Edward Y.
Abstract:: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is characterized by the degeneration of motor neurons in the motor cortex and spinal cord. Recent evidence suggests that the purine receptor P2X7 (P2X7R) plays a central role in the pathology of ALS. Previous research indicates that P2X7R activation by oxidatively modified heat shock protein 90...

The Effect of Riluzole on P2X7 and EAAT2 Expression by Inducible Neural Progenitor Cell (iNPC)-derived Astrocytes

Creator:: Sy, Kevin
Abstract:: Although it is the first drug approved for usage to treat amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), riluzole’s mechanism of action is unknown and its therapeutic quality is hampered by its relatively short window of effectiveness. P2X7 is a purine receptor found in astrocytes and other cells, which increases calcium concentrations within...

Improving the Photostability and Recovery of Organic Semiconductors

Creator:: Tollefsen, Ryan J.
Abstract:: This work aims to broaden use of the organic semiconductor pentacene (Pn) by means of improving its oxidation and photodimerization stability. In particular, we study the photophysical properties of functionalized Pn derivatives with side groups R in amorphous thin film, referred to as Pn-R-F8 when fluorinated. Using the optics experiments...

Fashion for Longevity - Design and Construction Elements to Promote Sustainable Consumption

Creator:: Chapman, Evietta L. Y.
Abstract:: Reducing garment waste and finding sustainable alternatives within the apparel industry has gained momentum in recent years as concerns increase towards the polluting nature of the industry. Designing for longevity, by focusing on aspects such as emotional and physical durability have been cited as possible solutions. The purpose of this...

The Secret Life of Estuaries: Phytoplankton-determined Seasonality of Particulate Organic Carbon in Cathlamet Bay and the Columbia River Estuary

Creator:: Shumway, David O.
Abstract:: This study investigated the composition and character of organic matter on suspended particulate material (SPM) in the Columbia River estuary system to determine the contribution of biological activity in lateral bays to the greater nutrient cycle of the river. Water samples were collected during neap and spring tidal forcing (25...

Measuring Past Networks of Cultural Transmission: The Haskett Projectile Point

Creator:: Stone, Samantha R.
Abstract:: Advances in technology such as 3D digital scanning and spatial analysis software have provided archaeologists with novel data. Specifically, these methods increase the researcher's ability to measure artifact morphology and past networks of cultural transmission, to potentially track the movement of past peoples and ideas through space and time. This...
