Abstract:

This thesis is concerned with a very common disorder of iron homeostasis: iron deficiency. The specific focus is the manner in which iron deficiency influences physiological responses to hypoxia in humans. This work is predicated on observations made over many decades in vitro and in vivo, suggesting that variations in the bioavailability of iron have important consequences for certain biological processes known to depend on oxygen availability. Three separate but related studies together form the basis for this thesis. The first two, Study A and Study B, adopt a similar approach in recruiting

Abstract:

This syllabus includes both lecture notes and laboratory activities for a two-semester anatomy and physiology community college course. The syllabus is based on a 16-week semester that is comprised of a three-hour lecture section and a one-hour laboratory class each week. Both the lecture course and laboratory are necessary to fulfill the requirement for anatomy and physiology. Laboratory activities coincide with lectures to enhance understanding of each topic by providing visual and hands-on experiments for the concepts learned in the lecture. Laboratory quizzes will be given each week to hel

Section 1 is concerned with exploring pharmacological responses to the ET family of peptides, the sarafotoxin analogue peptides, and ET antagonists, in human blood vessels <i>in vivo</i>. This was amongst the first work with ET-1 in humans, and certainly the first to use the sarafotoxins, ET receptor antagonists and ET converting enzyme (ECE) inhibitors. After characterisation of the pharmacological tools, it was possible to show clearly that endogenous ET-1 plays a physiological role in the control of peripheral resistance and blood pressure in healthy humans, suggesting important clinical ap

Abstract:

Prior to instruction, students may have developed alternative conceptions about the mechanics behind human physiology. To help students re-shape these ideas into correct reasoning, the faulty characteristics reinforcing the alternative conceptions need to made explicit. This study used student-generated drawings to expose alternative conceptions Human Anatomy and Physiology students had prior to instruction on neuron physiology. Specifically, we investigated how students thought about neuron communication across a synapse (n=355) and how neuron activity can be modified (n=311). When asked to d

Abstract:

Conflicts in published research raised a series of questions on the precision of the measurements used to differentiate between vertical jumps performed with and without pre-stretch. Procedures outlined by previous researchers (eg. Komi and Bosco, 1978a; Bedi et al., 1987) were repeated and extended. Force plate data were collected for a series of squat, counter movement and rebound jumps. Individual subjects responded differently and no evidence could be found for an optimal rebound dropping height. Modal analysis of the force plate highlighted the need for improving its mounting.

The detection threshold of a luminance-defined Gabor is improved by two high contrast, aligned flanking Gabors, an effect termed collinear facilitation. However, the neural basis of collinear facilitation is not well understood. This thesis focuses on a number of issues in collinear facilitation to better our understanding of its neural basis. (1) Cortical sites: the cortical site of collinear facilitation was investigated, and results showed that collinear facilitation is a purely monocular phenomenon.

Abstract:

There is a well-established connection between anomalous protein aggregates and disease, exemplified by the amyloidoses. Many neurological disorders such as Al heimer’s and Parkinson’s disease also show increased concentrations of iron deposits along with protein fibres. The increased metal concentrations observed in these instances have yet to be fully understood or explained. The research in this thesis is concerned with the aggregation of the protein transferrin, especially on surfaces. Human serum transferrin is an ~80 kDa iron-transporting glycoprotein found at 35 μM in the blood. It is a

This thesis summarizes a research programme on the role of hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) and its 2alpha subunit in systemic human physiology. Experiments were performed to assess the role of HIF in the regulation of skeletal muscle metabolism, cardiac anatomy, function and energy metabolism, and in cardiopulmonary physiology. Patients with different genetic mutations affecting the HIF pathway were recruited for each main study.

Abstract:

The role of male germ cell death in spermatogenesis is an important one as it removes dysfunctional or genetically damaged germ cells and is necessary to maintain an optimal germ cell to Sertoli cell ratio. The formation of the bloodtestis barrier requires the elimination of excessive germ cells and a surge of germ cell apoptosis occurs prior to puberty regulating the ratio of germ cells to Sertoli cells. The aim of this study was to evaluate the presence of four apoptotic markers on sperm from patients with various grades of fertility using flow cytometry. Furthermore, any correlations betwee

Abstract:

If individual muscle forces could be routinely calculated in vivo, non-invasively, considerable insight could be obtained into the etiology of injuries and the training of muscle for rehabilitation and sport. As there are generally more muscles crossing a joint than there are degrees of freedom at the joint, determining the individual forces in the muscles crossing a joint is a non-trivial problem. This study focused on the development of the procedures necessary to estimate the individual muscle forces during a dumbell curl, and the measurement procedures required for the determination of the

Abstract:

This dissertation is devoted to study of complex systems in human physiology particularly heartbeats and brain dynamics. We have studied the dynamics of heartbeats that has been a subject of investigation of two independent groups. The first group emphasized the multifractal nature of the heartbeat dynamics of healthy subjects, whereas the second group had established a close connection between healthy subjects and the occurrence of crucial events. We have analyzed the same set of data and established that in fact the heartbeats are characterized by the occurrence of crucial and Poisson events

Abstract:

FOXO1 is a forkhead transcription factor that inhibits proliferation and promotes apoptosis. It regulates genes that are involved in many diverse processes, including regulation of cell proliferation and cancer. The goal of our research is to understand FOXO1 and the role that it plays in human pituitary adenomas. Three objectives were outlined in this project to help determine the expression of FOXO1 in human pituitary adenomas. The first objective of this project was to analyze the spatial and temporal pattern of FOXO1 during mouse pituitary development. Objective one results showed th

Abstract:

Kinesin-12, Kif15 is a molecular motor involved in bipolar spindle assembly. Kif15 function is regulated through autoinhibition of its C-terminal tail and binding to the microtubule-associated protein Tpx2. Previous studies have reported Kif15 to function as a tetramer as well as a dimer. In this study, a cross-linking mass spectrometry (XL-MS) protocol and analysis workflow was developed to study the structural organisation of Kif15. Using XL-MS studies, it was found that Kif15 adopts a parallel tetramer conformation, which is autoinhibited by its C-terminal leucine zipper. Next, we show that

It is also estimated that 1 out of 3 Americans have prehypertension, which is classified as SBP ranging from 120-139 mmHg, or DBP from 80-89 mmHg.
