Abstract:

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a devastating problem which stands as a leading cause of death and disability. The elderly is significantly affected by TBI, typically as the result of falls, and recovery is especially limited. This, in part, is associated with decreased tissue-specific stem cell regeneration and replacement of damaged cells in the aged brain. The diminished ability of the aged brain to recover is especially devastating after TBI, likely leading to permanent loss of sensory, motor, and cognitive functions. Studies have shown that the mature mammalian brain contains Neural Stem

Abstract:

In this study, we investigated the role of Ang II in pathological vascular remodeling. We sought to determine whether the humoral or the mechanical effects of Ang II are the dominant factor driving the remodeling process. The following experimental groups were used: control group (untreated mice), mice treated with an angiotensin receptor blocker (Candesartan, 0.5 mg/kg/day,SQ), an ACE inhibitor (Captopril, 6 mg/kg/day), and a calcium-channel blocker (Amlodipine, 7.5 mg/kg/day). All mice (n=6 per experimental group) were from the C57Bl/6 background. The carotid ligation model was implemen

Abstract:

Pentraxin 3 (PTX3) is a vital regulator of innate immune function that has been shown to counterregulate pro-inflammatory signaling and protect against the development of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Less is known about how PTX3 may mitigate against CVD risk by regulating the pro-inflammatory response at the cellular level. Therefore, this dissertation details four manuscripts which aimed to examine the capacity of PTX3 to regulate the innate immune response of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) isolated from healthy adults. Manuscript 1 examined the capacity of PTX3 to alter the infl

Two strategies for controlling take - ail are the in situ development of disease suppressive soil, and / or the application of a biocontrol agent. However, TAD takes up to 10 years to develop after initially high levels of disease, and the performance of bacterial biocontrol agents has been inconsistent.

The ultimate clinical challenge of precision medicine in IBD is to find predictive markers to anticipate the development of severe disease and to monitor treatment in these patients.In the first part of my PhD thesis, we have carried out

Abstract:

Vascular calcification is strongly correlated with the clinical manifestations of atherosclerosis, heart attacks and strokes. The calcification process resembles bone formation and involves the osteogenic trans-differentiation of smooth muscles cells within the arterial wall. Cannabinoid receptors are known to modulate bone formation and are present in atherosclerotic vessels, suggesting they may also play a role in modulating calcification. Therefore, we evaluated the effects of cannabinoids on the expression of osteogenic proteins by vascular smooth muscle cells undergoing calcification.

Abstract:

Dyspnea is a clinical term for the sensation of shortness of breath. It is a subjective experience perceived and reported by an affected person when referring to a feeling of the unpleasantness and discomfort related to breathing (Epstein, Manning, and Schwartzstein, 1995; Mukerji, 1990). Both healthy subjects and patients with heart and lung disease can experience this sensation, but a key difference is the level of activity at which this sensation becomes particularly troublesome (West et al., 2010). Typically, healthy subjects experience substantial dyspnea during heavy to severe e

Abstract:

Resistance (R) genes, a key factor in determining the resistance of plants, have been shown often to be highly allelic entities existing in duplicated regions of the genome. This characteristic suggests that R-gene acquisition may have arisen through frequent genetic rearrangements as a result of transient, reduced genome stability. Tabacco plants transgenic for a recombination construct exhibited reduced genome stability upon infection with a virulent pathogen (tobacco mosaic virus). The reduced genome stability manifested as an increase in recombination events in the transgene. Such increase

Abstract:

Rapid blight is a new disease of cool season turf grasses caused by Labyrinthula terrestris. It is problematic in Arizona and ten other states in cool season turfgrasses at sites with elevated salinity of soil and/or irrigation water. L. terrestris colonizes Tifgreen bermudagrasses in the field, but causes no apparent disease. Laboratory trials have shown that as concentrations of sodium chloride in irrigation water increase, disease severity increases, and when calcium and potassium salts are used to increase salinity, disease is greatly reduced or not observed. In preliminary field assays of
