The Impact of Imitation on Vaccination Behavior in Social Contact Networks

Creator:: Mbah, Martial L. Ndeffo, Liu, Jingzhou, Bauch, Chris T., Tekel, Yonas I., Medlock, Jan, Meyers, Lauren Ancel, and Galvani, Alison P.
Abstract:: Previous game-theoretic studies of vaccination behavior typically have often assumed that populations are homogeneously mixed and that individuals are fully rational. In reality, there is heterogeneity in the number of contacts per individual, and individuals tend to imitate others who appear to have adopted successful strategies. Here, we use network-based...

Effects of Cu/Zn Superoxide Dismutase (sod1) Genotype and Genetic Background on Growth, Reproduction and Defense in Biomphalaria glabrata

Creator:: Bonner, Kaitlin M., Bayne, Christopher J., Larson, Maureen K., and Blouin, Michael S.
Abstract:: Resistance of the snail Biomphalaria glabrata to the trematode Schistosoma mansoni is correlated with allelic variation at copper-zinc superoxide dismutase (sod1). We tested whether there is a fitness cost associated with carrying the most resistant allele in three outbred laboratory populations of snails. These three populations were derived from the...

An Evaluation of Putative Sympatric Speciation within Limnanthes (Limnanthaceae)

Creator:: Meyers, Stephen C., Liston, Aaron, and Meinke, Robert
Abstract:: Limnanthes floccosa ssp. floccosa and L. floccosa ssp. grandiflora are two of five subspecies within Limnanthes floccosa endemic to vernal pools in southern Oregon and northern California. Three seasons of monitoring natural populations have quantified that L. floccosa ssp. grandiflora is always found growing sympatrically with L. floccosa ssp. floccosa...

Footprint of Positive Selection in Treponema pallidum subsp. pallidum Genome Sequences Suggests Adaptive Microevolution of the Syphilis Pathogen

Creator:: Giacani, Lorenzo, Chattopadhyay, Sujay, Centurion-Lara, Arturo, Jeffrey, BrendanM., Le, Hoavan T., Molini, Barbara J., Lukehart, Sheila A., Sokurenko, Evgeni V., and Rockey, Daniel D.
Abstract:: In the rabbit model of syphilis, infection phenotypes associated with the Nichols and Chicago strains of Treponema pallidum (T. pallidum), though similar, are not identical. Between these strains, significant differences are found in expression of, and antibody responses to some candidate virulence factors, suggesting the existence of functional genetic differences...

BCL11B Regulates Epithelial Proliferation and Asymmetric Development of the Mouse Mandibular Incisor

Creator:: Kyrylkova, Kateryna, Kyryachenko, Sergiy, Biehs, Brian, Klein, Ophir, Kioussi, Chrissa, and Leid, Mark
Abstract:: Mouse incisors grow continuously throughout life with enamel deposition uniquely on the outer, or labial, side of the tooth. Asymmetric enamel deposition is due to the presence of enamel-secreting ameloblasts exclusively within the labial epithelium of the incisor. We have previously shown that mice lacking the transcription factor BCL11B/CTIP2 (BCL11B...

Effect of metformin exposure on growth and photosynthetic performance in the unicellular freshwater chlorophyte, Chlorella vulgaris

Creator:: Cummings, Brittany M., Needoba, Joseph A., and Peterson, Tawyna D.
Abstract:: Many pharmaceuticals have negative effects on biota when released into the environment. For example, recent work has shown that the commonly prescribed antidiabetic drug, metformin (N,N-dimethylbiguanide), has endocrine disrupting effects on fish. However, effects of metformin on aquatic primary producers are poorly known. We exposed cultured isolates of a freshwater...

Delayed Cutaneous Wound Healing and Aberrant Expression of Hair Follicle Stem Cell Markers in Mice Selectively Lacking Ctip2 in Epidermis

Creator:: Liang, Xiaobo, Bhattacharya, Shreya, Bajaj, Gaurav, Guha, Gunjan, Wang, Zhixing, Jang, Hyo-Sang, Leid, Mark, Indra, Arup Kumar, and Ganguli-Indra, Gitali
Abstract:: Background: COUP-TF interacting protein 2 [(Ctip2), also known as Bcl11b] is an important regulator of skin homeostasis, and is overexpressed in head and neck cancer. Ctip2(ep-/-) mice, selectively ablated for Ctip2 in epidermal keratinocytes, exhibited impaired terminal differentiation and delayed epidermal permeability barrier (EPB) establishment during development, similar to what...

High-Throughput Sequencing of Arabidopsis microRNAs : Evidence for Frequent Birth and Death of MIRNA Genes

Creator:: Fahlgren, Noah, Howell, Miya D., Kasschau, Kristin D., Sullivan, Christopher M., Cumbie, Jason S., Givan, Scott A., Law, Theresa F., Grant, Sarah R., Dangl, Jeffrey L., and Carrington, James C.
Abstract:: In plants, microRNAs (miRNAs) comprise one of two classes of small RNAs that function primarily as negative regulators at the posttranscriptional level. Several MIRNA genes in the plant kingdom are ancient, with conservation extending between angiosperms and the mosses, whereas many others are more recently evolved. Here, we use deep...

Computational Approaches for Understanding Combinatorial Gene Regulation

Creator:: Ansariola, Mitra
Abstract:: Gene regulation is a complex mechanism that controls the spatial and temporal expression of genes in a living cell. My dissertation studies focus on two problems. First, tissue-specific gene expression prediction from DNA sequence and chromatin state, and second, the accurate discovery of small over-represented regulatory circuits in gene regulatory...
