Uncovering the mechanism of IL-4-mediated T cell survival

Creator:: Moscibrocki, Cathleen M.
Abstract:: Although IL-4 is a well-characterized multi-functional cytokine, its role as a survival factor in T cells is not completely understood. In an attempt to uncover IL-4-mediated survival, we studied caspase activation in primary mouse T lymphocytes undergoing death by neglect, activation-induced or steroid-induced cell death. Here, we identify the executioner...

The role of costimulation and adjuvants in the development of T cell effector and memory responses

Creator:: Maxwell, Joseph R.
Abstract:: T cells are one of the key cells in the immune system. Although they are not the first line of defense against a pathogen, their functions can greatly enhance the phagocytosis and destruction of pathogens as well as the development of antibody responses. Furthermore, even when responding T cells have...

Salinity adaptation of the invasive New Zealand mud snail (Potamopyrgus antipodarum) in the Columbia River estuary (Pacific Northwest, USA): physiological and molecular studies

Creator:: Hoy, Marshal, Boese, Bruce L., Taylor, Louise, Reusser, Deborah, and Rodriguez, Rusty
Abstract:: In this study, we examine salinity stress tolerances of two populations of the invasive species New Zealand mud snail Potamopyrgus antipodarum, one population from a high salinity environment in the Columbia River estuary and the other from a fresh water lake. In 1996, New Zealand mud snails were discovered in...

Gordon M final seminar.pptx

Creator:: Gordon, Michael Ian
Abstract:: Anaerobic digestion of lipid-extracted algal biomass has been proposed as a method to recover and recycle nutrients in algal biofuel systems. The purpose of this study was to quantify recoverable nitrogen and phosphorus from anaerobically digested C. vulgaris. Recoverable nutrients were deemed those present in the liquid phase of anaerobic...

The influence of aryl hydrocarbon receptor activation on T cell fate

Creator:: Funatake, Castle J.
Abstract:: 2,3,7,8-Tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) and related compounds are well-recognized for their immunosuppressive activity, which is mediated through an intracellular receptor and transcription factor, aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR). Laboratory animals exposed to TCDD are less resistant to infection and have severely impaired humoral and cell-mediated immune responses. This dissertation addressed the hypothesis that...

Acid-sensing ion channels in mouse olfactory bulb M/T neurons

Creator:: Li, Ming-Hua, Liu, Selina Qiuying, Inoue, Koichi, Lan, Jinquan, Simon, Roger P., and Xiong, Zhi-Gang
Abstract:: The olfactory bulb contains the first synaptic relay in the olfactory pathway, the sensory system in which odorants are detected enabling these chemical stimuli to be transformed into electrical signals and, ultimately, the perception of odor. Acid-sensing ion channels (ASICs), a family of proton-gated cation channels, are widely expressed in...

Development of a Structured Adaptive Approach to Klamath Basin Sucker Recovery Planning

Creator:: Barajas, Miguel F.
Abstract:: Listed as endangered in 1988, the Lost River sucker (Deltistes luxatus) and Shortnose sucker (Chasmistes brevirostris) were once abundant and widely distributed in the Klamath Basin in Southern Oregon and Northern California. Populations of both species have been declining since the late 1960’s. Factors thought responsible for declines include naturally...

Diversity combining ARQ over the m(> 2)-ary unidirectional channel

Creator:: Elarief, Noha
Abstract:: In diversity combining automatic repeat request (ARQ), erroneous packets are combined together forming a single, more reliable, packet. In this thesis, we give a diversity combining scheme for the m-ary unidirectional channel. A system using the given scheme with a t-unidirectional error detecting code is able to correct up to...

Investigations of regulatory T cell induction by 2, 3, 7, 8-Tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin during a graft-versus-host response

Creator:: Marshall, Nikki B.
Abstract:: The immune toxicity of 2,3,7,8-Tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) has been studied for over 35 years, but only recently has the profound immune suppression associated with TCDD exposure been linked to induction of regulatory T cells (Tregs). The effects of TCDD are mediated through binding the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR), a ligand-activated transcription...

"They called me the hyacinth girl" : T. S. Eliot, masculinity, and the Great War

Creator:: Query, Patrick
Abstract:: This thesis traces the relationship between the First World War, constructions of masculinity, and the life and poetry of T.S. Eliot. Central to this relationship is a study of homoeroticism, which the author characterizes as different from homosexuality but not exclusive of it, in late 19th and early 20th century...
