Clostridium difficile Spore-Macrophage Interactions: Spore Survival

Creator:: Paredes-Sabja, Daniel, Cofre-Araneda, Glenda, Brito-Silva, Christian, Pizarro-Guajardo, Marjorie, and Sarker, Mahfuzur R.
Abstract:: Background: Clostridium difficile is the main cause of nosocomial infections including antibiotic associated diarrhea, pseudomembranous colitis and toxic megacolon. During the course of Clostridium difficile infections (CDI), C. difficile undergoes sporulation and releases spores to the colonic environment. The elevated relapse rates of CDI suggest that C. difficile spores has...

Tumor targeting with a ⁹⁹̳mTcMAG-3 labeled molecular engine

Creator:: Slauson, Marjorie E.
Abstract:: A unique tumor targeted method, which may be able to deliver a molecule to the surface of a tumor cell using the pH gradient between hypoxic tumor cells and normal tissue has recently been developed. Since solid tumors have been found to have a lower extra cellular pH compared to...

Epidemic Clostridium difficile Ribotype 027 in Chile

Creator:: Hernandez-Rocha, Cristian, Barra-Carrasco, Jonathan, Pizarro-Guajardo, Marjorie, Ibanez, Patricio, Bueno, Susan M., Sarker, Mahfuzur R., Maria Guzman, Ana, Alvarez-Lobos, Manuel, and Paredes-Sabja, Daniel
Abstract:: The increased severity of Clostridium difficile infection is primarily attributed to the appearance of an epidemic strain characterized as PCR ribotype 027. The only report that identified epidemic C. difficile ribotype 027 in an American country outside of North America comes from Costa Rica, raising the possibility that strains 027...

The Clostridium difficile Exosporium Cysteine (CdeC)-Rich Protein Is Required for Exosporium Morphogenesis and Coat Assembly

Creator:: Barra-Carrasco, Jonathan, Olguín-Araneda, Valeria, Plaza-Garrido, Ángela, Miranda-Cárdenas, Camila, Cofré-Araneda, Glenda, Pizarro-Guajardo, Marjorie, Sarker, Mahfuzur R., and Paredes-Sabja, Daniel
Abstract:: Clostridium difficile is an important nosocomial pathogen that has become a major cause of antibiotic-associated diarrhea. There is a general consensus that C. difficile spores play an important role in C. difficile pathogenesis, contributing to infection, persistence, and transmission. Evidence has demonstrated that C. difficile spores have an outermost layer,...

Single nucleotide polymorphism diversity in domesticated and wild sunflowers

Creator:: Freeman, Carrie
Abstract:: Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are the most common DNA polymorphisms in plant and animal genomes. SNPs were identified in the allele sequences of up to 12 sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) genotypes for a genome-wide sample of 81 loci originally mapped using restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) markers. The RFLP loci...

Contractile function of single muscle fibers from chronically resistance trained humans

Creator:: Shoepe, Todd C.
Abstract:: Resistance training is widely prescribed for rehabilitation of injuries and as a method to improve athletic performance. It is accepted that resistance training increases the maximal force production of whole muscle and it has been suggested that the velocity of shortening can increase as well. However, little is known about...

The relationship of career aspirations and influencing factors to the satisfaction of choosing secondary school vocational programs

Creator:: Amoapim, Jonas Johansson
Abstract:: Purpose of the Study The purpose of this study was to: (1) develop a model for predicting high school students' occupational choice satisfaction by measuring the impact of vocational education programs on career decisions, and (2) to examine the validity and the efficiency of the model by testing it on...

Construction of a self-esteem inventory for Thai college women

Creator:: Pinyuchon, Methinin
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to develop and validate a self-esteem inventory for Thai college women. Research questions included whether or not the developed inventory proved to be unidimensional or multidimensional and, if the latter proved to be the case, how many dimensions underlie the construct. The item pool...

College women, alcohol consumption, and negative sexual outcomes

Creator:: Good, Debora L.
Abstract:: While it is generally assumed that alcohol consumption plays some role in the advent of negative sexual outcomes among college students (sexually transmitted diseases, unplanned pregnancies, and date rape), that role has not been empirically demonstrated or quantified. The purpose of this study was to assess the association of alcohol...

An assessment of phytoplankton primary productivity in the Arctic Ocean from satellite ocean color/in situ chlorophyll-a based models

Creator:: Lee, Younjoo J., Matrai, Patricia A., Friedrichs, Marjorie A. M., Saba, Vincent S., Antoine, David, Ardyna, Mathieu, Asanuma, Ichio, Babin, Marcel, Bélanger, Simon, Benoît‐Gagné, Maxime, Devred, Emmanuel, Fernández‐Méndez, Mar, Gentili, Bernard, Hirawake, Toru, Kang, Sung‐Ho, Kameda, Takahiko, Katlein, Christian, Lee, Sang H., Lee, Zhongping, Mélin, Frédéric, Scardi, Michele, Smyth, Tim J., Tang, Shilin, Turpie, Kevin R., Waters, Kirk J., and Westberry, Toby K.
Abstract:: We investigated 32 net primary productivity (NPP) models by assessing skills to reproduce integrated NPP in the Arctic Ocean. The models were provided with two sources each of surface chlorophyll-a concentration (chlorophyll), photosynthetically available radiation (PAR), sea surface temperature (SST), and mixed-layer depth (MLD). The models were most sensitive to...
