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...

The effects of 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin on T cell activation

Creator:: Shepherd, David M.
Abstract:: The immune system has been identified as a very sensitive target for the toxic effects of 2,3,7,S-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD). Exposure to TCDD has been shown to disrupt the generation of both cell-mediated and humoral T cell-dependent immunity in laboratory animals; however, the mechanism remains unknown. In this dissertation, the hypothesis is...

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...

The Effect of HSA and Hematocrit on the Cake Collapse Temperature of Lyophilized Red Blood Cells

Creator:: Runyon, Daniel E.
Abstract:: Freeze-drying, or lyophilization, has shown great promise in addressing many of the logistical challenges of storing and preserving red blood cells (RBCs). A crucial part of any future RBC lyophilization protocol is the primary drying temperature, which affects the sample drying rate and the dried cake’s ability to form a...

The higher classification of the Hesperiidae (Lepidoptera: Hesperioidea)

Creator:: Warren, Andrew D.
Abstract:: A comprehensive tribal-level classification for the world's subfamilies of Hesperiidae, the skipper butterflies, is proposed for the first time. Phylogenetic relationships between tribes and subfamilies are inferred using DNA sequence data from three gene regions: 943 bp of cytochrome oxidase subunit I (COI) (in the mitochondrial genome), 739 bp of...

Mathematical and Experimental Approaches for Designing Less Toxic Cryopreservation Methods

Creator:: Warner, Ross M.
Abstract:: Successful cryopreservation of all biological specimens would have an untold positive impact on medicine and scientific research. However, cryopreservation of the most complex biological specimens, such as tissues and organs, remains elusive. Vitrification, or ice-free cryopreservation, is promising for cryopreservation of complex specimens. The biggest challenge, though, is the toxicity...

Improving the post-thaw processing of cryopreserved red blood cells using a combined approach of mathematical modeling and microfluidics

Creator:: Lusianti, Ratih E.
Abstract:: This study lays the groundwork on potential techniques that could be employed to improve the post-thaw wash processing of cryopreserved human red blood cells. Transfusion of red blood cells is one of the most commonly practiced procedures in clinical medicine. Millions of red blood cell units are transfused to patients...

Drinking Water Access through a Transdisciplinary Lens

Creator:: Davis, Kari R.
Abstract:: Drinking water access is a global concern. While drinking water is widely available in much of the U.S., there are still vulnerable communities that lack access, which signifies the presence of inequity in drinking water access distributions. In response, this research sought to explore solutions and develop reconnaissance-level plans to...

Diving into Diversity: Fish Populations and Climate Resilience in an Endorheic Basin

Creator:: Dew, Aleah
Abstract:: The Goose Lake Basin, situated on the border of Oregon and California, USA, faces significant challenges from drought, wildfire, and other environmental stressors. This region hosts numerous endemic fish species such as the Goose Lake redband trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss newberri), Goose Lake lamprey (Entosphenus sp.), Goose Lake tui chub (Siphateles...
