Creator:: Smith, Eric Jonathan
Abstract:: Nuclear Factor, Erythroid Derived 2, Like 2 (NFE2L2 or Nrf2) is the primary transcription factor in cellular defense against oxidative and xenobiotic stresses in higher eukaryotes. This basic leucine zipper transcription factor regulates over 200 antioxidant, detoxification, and lipid metabolizing genes by binding to the Antioxidant Response Element (ARE; a...

Creator:: Dixon, Brian M.
Abstract:: Hallmarks of aging include the accumulation of aberrant proteins and a lower resistance to stresses. Because the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) functions to fold proteins and possesses unique stress sensing pathways, the central hypothesis of this dissertation is that the ER is a target of cellular aging and significantly underlies these...

Creator:: Tirmenstein, Mark A.
Abstract:: Lipid peroxidation is believed to be an important process in the development of cellular injury. In addition to the degradation of biological membranes, increasing evidence indicates that lipid peroxidation can alter the structure and function of DMA. The present study examines the peroxidation of nuclear membranes and the capacity of...
Resource Type:: Dissertation
Full Text:: peroxidation 117 123 V-1 DNA and protein content of isolated kidney nuclei purified by nonaqueous

Creator:: Li, Chuan
Abstract:: Atherosclerosis is the underlying cause of ischemic heart disease and stroke and is the leading cause of death worldwide, especially in developed countries. As an inflammatory disease of arteries in a hyperlipidemic milieu, expression of adhesion molecules, such as endothelial-leukocyte adhesion molecule-1 (E-selectin) and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), on endothelial...
