Microbial communities in Arctic coastal lagoons drive biogeochemical cycles at the terrestrial-marine interface and help to determine the fate and form of resources like nitrogen (N) and carbon (C) as they are delivered to the Arctic Ocean. Though rising rates of primary production in the Arctic Ocean are well-characterized, the...
The environmental health science community recognizes polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) as a re-emerging class of environmental pollutants due to their persistence and prominence in mixtures of concern. Due to their widespread distribution in the environment, exposure to PAHs often occur as complex chemical mixtures. Exposures are linked to numerous adverse...
This data contains large supplementary tables for the PhD dissertation of Dariia Vyshenska. Title of the Dissertation: "Identification of Cervical Cancer Key Regulators using Network Biology Approach"
The dataset contains data from two types of research.
Research #1: Identification of bacterial regulators of cervical cancer gene expression. It contains microbial...
Background: Despite recent work to characterize gene expression changes associated with larval development in oysters, the mechanism by which the larval shell is first formed is still largely unknown. In Crassostrea gigas, this shell forms within the first 24 h post fertilization, and it has been demonstrated that changes in...
Whitebark pine (Pinus albicaulis) is an iconic North American high-elevation tree species currently threatened by climate change, mountain pine beetle, and white pine blister rust (WPBR), a lethal disease caused by the non-native fungal pathogen Cronartium ribicola. In collaboration with the USDA Forest Service Dorena Genetic Resource Center, germplasm was...
Arctic soils are warming, making vast stores of organic carbon available for conversion to CO₂. This could create a positive feedback loop and accelerate global warming, but the processes that convert this carbon into CO₂ are not well understood. We investigated how the combined activities of sunlight and microbes degrade...
Rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) experience a variety of stressors in their natural environment as well as in aquaculture that can have negative effects on their physiology. The effects of physiological stress and endocrine disruption have been well described in fish. However, there is a scarcity of information on the effects...
Current evidence suggests that temporal regulation of gene
expression in eucaryotic organisms relies primarily upon localized
structural modifications of chromatin. One possible means of
changing chromatin structure is through varying the level of
acetylation of the histone proteins. Sodium butyrate has been found
to inhibit the activity of histone deacetylase...
Germination of immature (Stage III) and mature (Stage V) wheat (Triticum aestivum L. var. Chinese Spring and Yamhill) embryos is prevented by the inclusion of 10⁻⁴ M abscisic acid (ABA) in culture medium. In addition, Stage III embryos develop into mature embryos in culture medium containing ABA. In the absence...
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...
