The Effects of Vitamin E on the Lifespan of Caenorhabditis elegans Strains with Mitochondrial Mutations

Creator:: Kusuma, Danika N.
Abstract:: Although assays have been done on the effects of vitamin E alpha-tocopherol (ɑ-tocopherol) on the lifespan of wildtype C. elegans, none have been done on the effects of the vitamin on mutant strains with mitochondrial mutations. By using a mev-1 genetic mutant strain of C. elegans with higher levels of...

Cloud-Enabled Health Monitoring on an Android Device

Creator:: Howe, Tyler Daniel
Abstract:: Constant and reliable health monitoring can help doctors provide higher quality health care to meet the growing needs of the medical industry. The advent of cloud computing has enabled low-cost sensor devices that can process their data in real-time without powerful onboard hardware. Using an Android smartphone, medical data can...

An analysis on the population genetic structure of Ariolimax columbianus around Corvallis, Oregon

Creator:: Brune, Maximillian A.
Abstract:: As the world’s population continues to increase every year, a greater proportion of people are living in urban environments. This process of global urbanization has been previously shown to affect evolution of plants and animals by restricting gene flow, increasing genetic drift, and causing divergent selection between rural and urban...

Facility Planning for Large Equine Facilities in the Pacific Northwest

Creator:: Glenn, Aimee K.
Abstract:: Large equine facilities are comprised of many different departments (areas) that are necessary for the proper care and maintenance of horses. The placement of departments is often inefficient due to the slow growth of equine facilities. As a result, facility layout becomes a crucial aspect requiring explicit consideration because mandatory...

Sources of variability in duration of anesthesia with brevital sodium in snakes

Creator:: Preston, Daniel L.
Abstract:: Variability in the depth and duration of anesthesia in individuals within a species is frequently observed, yet few studies have investigated its causes in reptiles. To evaluate the potential causes of variability in reptile anesthesia, I conducted experiments to test for effects of body temperature, body composition and time post-feeding...

Effects of 6 months of voluntary alcohol self-administration on intracorticalbone remodeling in young adult male cynomolgus monkeys

Creator:: Kuah, Amida F.
Abstract:: Heavy chronic alcohol consumption has been linked to a myriad of detrimental skeletal effects. Many studies have been conducted to examine the effects of alcohol abuse upon cancellous bone. However, little is known about its effect upon cortical bone. The skeleton is comprised of approximately 80% cortical bone and thus...

Impact of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons on Barrier Function Toxicity in 3D Lung Model from Normal and Asthmatic Donor Cells

Creator:: Huynh, Celine T.
Abstract:: Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are known to cause adverse health effects in the human lung. Here, we evaluated biomarkers relevant for PAH toxicity in a 3D human primary bronchial epithelial cell (HBEC) model collected from normal and asthmatic donors. We previously found that PAHs decrease cellular barrier function integrity, which...

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...

Creation of a Bilingual Children’s Book to Highlight the Racial and Ethnic Disparities in U.S. Dental Service Utilization

Creator:: Huynh, Daniel T.
Abstract:: Although Latino students make up more than a quarter of the U.S. public school system, only three percent of children’s literature either features a Latino protagonist or is written by a Latino author (Machado et al.). Latinos are therefore severely underrepresented in children’s books. Additionally, studies have revealed that Latino...

Metabolomics analysis identifies effects of nitrate and exercise in zebrafish (Danio rerio)

Creator:: Wolfe, Mandy
Abstract:: Objectives: Nitrate, found abundantly in green leafy vegetables, may improve exercise performance by increasing the availability and utilization of metabolic fuels that require less oxygen for energy production. However, it is not known if this performance effect occurs at the peak exercise intensity. We hypothesize that supplemental nitrate treatment will...
