  • Vitamin E and K interactions : investigating mechanisms of reduced vitamin K status in response to excess vitamin E

    Creator:
    Farley, Sherry Mae
    Abstract:
    The primary goal of my studies was to elucidate the mechanisms for the well-recognized interaction between two nutrients, vitamins E and K. The outcomes from my studies assess mechanisms for adverse effects of vitamin E and provide novel information on mechanisms for vitamin K homeostasis. These findings will provide information...

  • Ibuprofen Treatment Causes NMDA and AMPA Receptor Hyperactivity in Female Wild Type and Heterozygous 5xFAD mice but not Males

    Creator:
    Rauenhorst, Jacob
    Abstract:
    With Alzheimer’s disease being the most prominent form of dementia, finding potential treatments for the disease is imperative. This study explored the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug ibuprofen as a potential treatment to normalize the hyperactive N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) within the 5xFAD mice early in the disease pathology before cognitive decline. Female...

  • Pressure effects on density-difference driven stratified flow : CFD model of DCC event in the HTGR

    Creator:
    Magnusson, Jill E.
    Abstract:
    In a Modular High Temperature Gas Reactor (MHTGR), the Depressurized Conduction Cooldown (DCC) event can be separated into three distinct stages: 1) depressurization, 2) air ingress and, 3) natural circulation. During normal operations, the HTGR utilizes forced convection to move the helium coolant through the reactor core. Thus, during normal...

  • The Role of Nrf2 in Brain Cellular Senescence

    Creator:
    Ross, Grace K.
    Abstract:
    Aging is a major risk factor for the deterioration of biochemical pathways that lead to many chronic neurodegenerative disorders (i.e. Parkinson’s and Alzheimer's Disease). Cellular senescence is a hallmark of aging, a condition characterized by stable growth arrest resulting in a cell that no longer divides, but is metabolically active....

  • K-12 school finance reform : an Idaho case study

    Creator:
    Pratt, Leah
    Abstract:
    There have been years of stalled K-12 school finance reform efforts in Idaho, yet it was unclear what key Idaho education interest groups currently thought about how Idaho funds its public schools. Therefore, this project explored the institutional perspectives and beliefs of K-12 Idaho education stakeholders regarding the Idaho K-12...

  • The effects of enhanced expression of the GluN2B (NR2B) subunit of the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor on memory in aged animals

    Creator:
    Brim, Brenna L.
    Abstract:
    As the aging population continues to grow worldwide, age-related complications are becoming more apparent within the aging population. One of the first age-related complications to become apparent is age-associated memory impairment and it can make the elderly more dependent on caregivers early on. The N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor is important to...

  • Age-related differences in brain activations during spatial memory formation in a virtual Morris water maze task

    Creator:
    Reynolds-Lallement, Nadjalisse C.
    Abstract:
    This study applied a virtual rendition of the Morris water maze, which is commonly used for assessing spatial memory in rodents, to an examination of age-related differences in spatial learning among 42 younger (18-30 years) and older (>60 years) male human participants. Virtual Morris water maze performance was measured by...
