Urinary Antimicrobial Peptides And The Urinary Microbiota In A Uti-Susceptible Population Of Female Pelvic Floor Surgery Patients, Vanessa Nienhouse
Urinary Antimicrobial Peptides And The Urinary Microbiota In A Uti-Susceptible Population Of Female Pelvic Floor Surgery Patients, Vanessa Nienhouse
Master's Theses
Urinary tract infections (UTI)s are a national priority. Women who undergo surgery for pelvic floor disorders such as pelvic organ prolapse (POP) or urinary incontinence (UI) are at increased risk for UTI, as 10-30% will contract a post-instrumentation UTI (postI-UTI) within six weeks after surgery. Currently, the factors that contribute to the high rate of postI-UTI are unknown, and there is currently no clinical assessment to identify at-risk patients. However, antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) and characteristics of the urinary microbiota have the potential to serve as biomarkers, identifying patients at UTI risk and facilitating clinical prevention studies.

Organization And Composition Of The Α21-Ii Region Of Human Chromosome 21, William Ziccardi
Organization And Composition Of The Α21-Ii Region Of Human Chromosome 21, William Ziccardi
Master's Theses
The purpose of this project was to develop a better map of the alpha 21-II region of human chromosome 21 in regards to size and primary sequence of the five alphoid clusters that comprise the region and to explore the evolutionary relationships that exist within and between these clusters. Several HC21 BACs were identified as containing strong sequence identities to alpha 21-II clones and were mapped to various alpha 21-II clusters. It was revealed that both monomeric and HOR alphoid clusters can be found in the alpha 21-II region. Phylogenetic analysis revealed separate evolutionary histories for the monomeric and HOR …
