Skpa Restrains Synaptic Terminal Growth During Development And Promotes Axonal Degeneration Following Injury, E. J. Brace, Chunlai Wu, Vera Valakh, Aaron Diantonio Jun 2014

Skpa Restrains Synaptic Terminal Growth During Development And Promotes Axonal Degeneration Following Injury, E. J. Brace, Chunlai Wu, Vera Valakh, Aaron Diantonio

Open Access Publications

The Wallenda (Wnd)/dual leucine zipper kinase (DLK)-Jnk pathway is an evolutionarily conserved MAPK signaling pathway that functions during neuronal development and following axonal injury. Improper pathway activation causes defects in axonal guidance and synaptic growth, whereas loss-of-function mutations in pathway components impairs axonal regeneration and degeneration after injury. Regulation of this pathway is in part through the E3 ubiquitin ligase Highwire (Hiw), which targets Wnd/DLK for degradation to limit MAPK signaling. To explore mechanisms controlling Wnd/DLK signaling, we performed a large-scale genetic screen in Drosophila to identify negative regulators of the pathway. Here we describe the identification and characterization of …

The Relationship Between Vulnerability To Temporary Versus Permanent Threshold Shifts In Balb, Cba/J And B6 Inbred Mice, Lauren Lewis Jan 2014

The Relationship Between Vulnerability To Temporary Versus Permanent Threshold Shifts In Balb, Cba/J And B6 Inbred Mice, Lauren Lewis

Independent Studies and Capstones

This study examines the dose-response relationship between TTS and PTS. Results indicate that susceptibility to TTS does not predict susceptibility to PTS and that long standing principles such as the equal energy hypothesis and early vulnerability period do not apply at low levels of noise.


Cognitive Consequences Of Degraded Speech: The Effect Of Background Noise, Noise-Vocoded Speech And Low-Pass Filtering On Short Story Recall, Laura Anne Horowitz Jan 2014

Cognitive Consequences Of Degraded Speech: The Effect Of Background Noise, Noise-Vocoded Speech And Low-Pass Filtering On Short Story Recall, Laura Anne Horowitz

Independent Studies and Capstones

Recall accuracy for speech-degraded short stories was assessed in young adults with normal hearing sensitivity. Stories were presented in the clear, or in noise vocoded, low-pass filtered, or background noise conditions of varying difficulty. Propositional scoring was used to determine the accuracy of participants’ recall. No significant effect on short story recall accuracy was observed for the degraded listening conditions. These results suggest that young adult listeners may be less susceptible to the extra cognitive challenge associated with degraded speech than might be predicted by the effortfulness hypothesis.


The Effect Of Anti-Inflammatory Drugs On Hair Cell Regeneration In The Zebrafish Lateral Line, Sarah C. Garbo Jan 2014

The Effect Of Anti-Inflammatory Drugs On Hair Cell Regeneration In The Zebrafish Lateral Line, Sarah C. Garbo

Independent Studies and Capstones

Hair cell death and regeneration on the three distal-most neuromasts in the posterior lateral line of zebrafish larvae were investigated after neomycin treatment. Treatment with ibuprofen, dexamethasone and salicylate examined the role of a normal inflammatory response on hair cell regeneration. Regeneration was observed 48 hours post-treatment indicating these reagents have no effect on the regeneration process.


The Early Language Environment And Effect Of Parental Counseling On Adult Language Exposure Of Children With Unilateral And Mild Bilateral Hearing Loss, Anita Marie Calwas Jan 2014

The Early Language Environment And Effect Of Parental Counseling On Adult Language Exposure Of Children With Unilateral And Mild Bilateral Hearing Loss, Anita Marie Calwas

Independent Studies and Capstones

This pilot study investigated the early language environment of children with unilateral and mild to moderate bilateral hearing loss. A one-time educational session with a parent is assessed for its ability to increase parental speech to children with unilateral and mild to moderate bilateral hearing loss.
