Adipose tissue remodeling in response to corticosterone and β3-adrenergic receptor agonist mirabegron
(2022)With the rise of metabolic diseases including obesity and type 2 diabetes, the need to investigate one of the most dynamic endocrine organs is critical for combating these diseases. Adipose tissue (AT) exists predominantly ... -
Cardiac oxidative stress and antioxidant status in response to radiation and monocrotaline induced cardiac dysfunction
(2016)Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death and disability worldwide. Oxidative stress has been implicated in many types of cardiovascular disease. Chronic cardiac stress conditions have been shown to be associated ... -
Evaluation of Anti-E6 Single Domain Antibodies for the Treatment of Human Papillomavirus-related Cancer
(2022)The HPV16 genome encodes two oncoproteins, E6 and E7, which are essential for viral carcinogenesis. While E7 promotes cell proliferation, E6 abolishes the resulting p53-dependent apoptotic response. We hypothesized that ... -
Interaction of Pseudomonas putida and Listeria monocytogenes in mixed culture biofilms / by Greg Kepka.
(2008)"Listeria monocytogenes is a foodborne pathogen that causes problems in many food processing plants because it produces biofilms and thus is difficult to control by regular cleaning and sanitizing procedures. It has been ... -
Isolation and characterization of bioconversion microbes and aerobic conversion of crude glycerol to value-added bioproducts
(2018)Renewable forms of energy are of significant interest in today’s economies. Biofuel is a renewable fuel produced by biological means. Biofuel is very useful because it does not have a finite supply, and it produces fewer ... -
Method optimization and gene expression analysis for interferon Kappa mRNA in HPV-associated cervical disease / by Correne A. Decarlo.
(2008)Interferons (IFNs) are a common biological treatment option for many cancers as well as for human papillomavirus (HPV)-associated diseases, but current IFN treatments have not been optimized as disease progression subsists ... -
Modelling the molecular mechanisms of biocompatibility of artifical materials
(2015)One of the most common reasons for implant failure is immune rejection. Implant rejection leads to additional surgical intervention and, ultimately, increases health cost as well as recovery time. Within a few hours after ... -
Pathogen-host omics analyses of human papillomavirus type 16 sub-lineages in a human epithelial organoid model
(2019)Pathogens such as human papillomaviruses (HPVs) have co-evolved with their hosts and form a molecular basis for common diseases. Persistent infection with the “high-risk” HPV type 16 (HPV16) is a potent cause of anogenital ...
