Role of Pitx2 in regulation of cardiac remodelling

Creator:: Bhatt, Shachi
Abstract:: Background: Heart morphogenesis involves chamber formation followed by septation. Septation is the remodeling of the heart from a single channel peristaltic pump to a two channel pump with one-way valves. Several transcription factors have been implicated in the development of congenital cardiac defects. The paired-like homeodomain transcription factor Pitx2 has...

Health risk of bathing in Southern California coastal waters

Creator:: Brinks, Mitchell V.
Abstract:: Bathers exposed to microbiological contamination in coastal waters have an excess risk of gastrointestinal and respiratory illness. The disease burden associated with this risk may be considerable in Southern California, where 50 million annual beach visitors recreate in coastal waters that receive billions of gallons of polluted discharges from nearby...

Characterization of the Mechanisms of Action and Molecular Targets of Hop-derived Flavonoids in the Mitigation of Obesity-related Metabolic Impairments

Creator:: Paraiso, Ines L.
Abstract:: Obesity is a complex multifactorial disease resulting from excessive energy intake compared to energy expenditure. The excess energy is mostly stored as fat in enlarged adipocytes, but some lipids may infiltrate other organs such as the liver to form ectopic fat. Adipose tissue and ectopic fat produce and secrete a...

Investigation of Procyanidins Used in Botanical Dietary Supplements

Creator:: Rue, Emily A.
Abstract:: Polyphenolic compounds found in foods such as fruits, vegetables, legumes, nuts and grains, are an integral part of the human diet. Within polyphenols, proanthocyanidins are referred to as condensed tannins and encompass procyanidins, propelargonidins and prodelphinidins. Among these, procyanidins are the largest group. Recent interest in these compounds is related...

Understanding the Influence of Perceived Usefulness of Evidence Based Interventions and Employee Morale on the Relationship between Participatory Internal Communication and Program Fidelity

Creator:: Osibanjo, Oyindamola I.
Abstract:: Translation of efficacious programs into real-world settings is an important step in ensuring improved public health outcomes. Yet, the process of translating evidence-based interventions (EBIs) according to fidelity is fraught with challenges. Organizational factors, specifically organizational communication, have been shown to influence translation processes. To date, there is limited research...

Identification of Cervical Cancer Key Regulators using Network Biology Approach

Creator:: Vyshenska, Dariia
Abstract:: Cervical cancer is the fourth most common cancer in women worldwide with human papillomavirus (HPV) being the main cause of the disease. Currently available treatment methods are limited and emphasize the need for discovery of new therapies that improve patient outcome. Chromosomal amplifications have been identified as a source of...

Insights into Cytostatic and Cytotoxic Properties of the Natural Product Mensacarcin

Creator:: Kaweesa, Elizabeth Namagoba
Abstract:: Mensacarcin is a stereogenic complex polyketide with potent anti-tumor activity produced by a soil-dwelling Streptomyces bottropensis. The US National Cancer Institute (NCI) 60 human tumor cell line anticancer drug screen (NCI-60) reveals mensacarcin’s cytostatic properties in almost all tested cell lines and distinct cytotoxic properties specifically in eight melanoma cell...

Bioactive Microbial Natural Products from Unique Indonesian Black Water Ecosystems

Creator:: Sheng, Yan
Abstract:: The discovery of new antibiotics reached its peak during the golden era of antibiotics in the mid 20th century and continued to thrive until the 1980s. However, after more than 50 years of fruitful exploration and exploitation of microbial natural products the discovery rate of new antibiotics has dropped drastically...

Mandelalides as Potent Mitochondrial ATP Synthase Inhibitors : From Discovery of New Analogs to Function-Oriented Synthetic Studies

Creator:: Nazari, Mohamad
Abstract:: Our quest for pharmaceutically important marine natural products led to re-isolation of known mandelalides A-D and identification of new congeners E-L from re-collected South African Lissoclinum tunicate specimens. Mandelalides A, B, and L were characterized as selective cancer cell toxins, with an unusual activity profile influenced by their glycosylation /...

Weight Stigma and Its Associations with Health Behaviors Among Older Adults

Creator:: Phibbs, Sandi Cleveland
Abstract:: Having excess weight carries a negative social stigma in the U.S. Previous research has shown that experiencing stigma has negative physical and mental health consequences. Few studies have examined how experiencing weight stigma might act as a barrier to engaging in healthy behaviors among older adults. The purpose of this...
