Transcriptional regulation of the human cathelicidin antimicrobial peptide gene

Creator:: Guo, Chunxiao
Abstract:: Human cathelicidin antimicrobial peptide (CAMP/LL-37) is a cationic antimicrobial peptide that is widely expressed by myeloid and epithelial cells at the human-environment interface. It possesses broad spectrum antimicrobial capacity against bacteria, fungi and viruses. In addition to its direct antimicrobial activity, CAMP/LL-37 also attracts and recruits monocytes, neutrophils and other...

Effectual Entrepreneurship and its Application to a Microfluidics R&D Startup

Creator:: Brown, Matthew E.
Abstract:: An inventor seeks to leverage his unique means in order to create and commercially exploit new technologies. Until new technologies are sufficiently developed, they have the theoretical potential for commercial exploitation in a wide range of markets. Those opportunities are limited by physical bounds that are often only discovered through...

The effect of dietary compounds on human cathelicidin antimicrobial peptide gene expression mediated through farnesoid X receptor and its potential role in gastrointestinal health

Creator:: Campbell, Yan
Abstract:: The human cathelicidin antimicrobial peptide (CAMP) is a broad spectrum microbicidal agent and modulator of both the innate and adaptive immune system. It is induced by 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25(OH)₂D₃) through activation of the vitamin D receptor (VDR) and primary bile salts through activation of the xenobiotic nuclear receptor farnesoid X...

In Defense of the "Ringding Mukta" : The Later Work of J.D. Salinger

Creator:: Herb, Danielle Kristine
Abstract:: My thesis explores the later work of author J.D. Salinger, including two narratives featured in Nine Stories, "A Perfect Day for Bananafish," and "Teddy," and Franny and Zooey, "Raise High the Roof Beam, Carpenters," and "Seymour: an Introduction." Through my analysis I argue that the religious nature of Salinger's fiction...
