Tissue Classification Based On Relaxation Environments, Jordan Guinn

Theses

Since the advent of magnetic resonance (MR) imaging as a sound medical imaging technique there has been a need to classify the tissues in the images created. Typically the radiologist has been responsible for the evaluation of the images produced by the MRI machine. In any given MRI there exists many different types of tissues each with a certain concentration of spin densities. Each one of these tissues has a unique T1 and T2 decay times along with a with a unique spin density. The T2 values are indicative of the structure of the tissue, and if the T2 time …

Neurotransmitter Transport: Models In Flux, Michael Kavanaugh

Biomedical and Pharmaceutical Sciences Faculty Publications

Physiologists say that ions and neutral solutes can cross biological membranes via “transporters” and “channels.” We tend to think about the difference between transporters and channels in terms of gating mechanisms. Ion channels exhibit a wide range of selectivity properties and permeation rates, but their gating at the most basic level can be thought of in terms of a single barrier or gate acting as a switch. When the gate is closed, ions can’t permeate; when the gate is opened, a permeation pathway for ions allows flux, often at very high rates (up to 10⁸/sec). Transporters and ion …

Excitatory Amino Acid Transporters Of The Salamander Retina: Identification, Localization, And Function, Scott Eliasof, Jeffrey L. Arriza, Barbara H. Leighton, Michael Kavanaugh, Susan G. Amara

Biomedical and Pharmaceutical Sciences Faculty Publications

The rapid re-uptake of extracellular glutamate mediated by a family of high-affinity glutamate transporter proteins is essential to continued glutamatergic signaling and neuronal viability, but the contributions of individual transporter subtypes toward cellular physiology are poorly understood. Because the physiology of glutamate transport in the salamander retina has been well described, we have examined the expression and function of glutamate transporter subtypes in this preparation. cDNAs encoding five distinct salamander excitatory amino acid transporter (sEAAT) subtypes were isolated, and their molecular properties and distributions of expression were compared. We report evidence that at least four distinct sEAAT subtypes are expressed …

Cysteine Scanning Of The Surroundings Of An Alkali-Ion Binding Site Of The Glutamate Transporter Glt-1 Reveals A Conformationally Sensitive Residue, Ruth Zarbiv, Myriam Grunewald, Michael Kavanaugh, Baruch I. Kanner

Biomedical and Pharmaceutical Sciences Faculty Publications

Glutamate transporters remove this transmitter from the extracellular space by cotransport with three sodium ions and a proton. The cycle is completed by translocation of a potassium ion in the opposite direction. Recently we have identified two adjacent amino acid residues of the glutamate transporter GLT-1 that influence potassium coupling. Using the scanning cysteine accessibility method we have now explored the highly conserved region surrounding them. Replacement of each of the five consecutive residues 396–400 by cysteine abolished transport activity but at several other positions the substitution is tolerated. One residue, tyrosine 403, was identified where cysteine substitution renders the …

Gp120 Envelope Glycoproteins Of Human Immunodeficiency Viruses Competitively Antagonize Signaling By Coreceptors Cxcr4 And Ccr5, Navid Madani, Susan L. Kozak, Michael Kavanaugh, David Kabat

Biomedical and Pharmaceutical Sciences Faculty Publications

Signal transductions by the dual-function CXCR4 and CCR5 chemokine receptors/HIV type 1 (HIV-1) coreceptors were electrophysiologically monitored in Xenopus laevis oocytes that also coexpressed the viral receptor CD4 and a G protein-coupled inward-rectifying K⁺ channel (Kir 3.1). Large Kir 3.1-dependent currents generated in response to the corresponding chemokines (SDF-1α for CXCR4 and MIP-1α; MIP-1β and RANTES for CCR5) were blocked by pertussis toxin, suggesting involvement of inhibitory guanine nucleotide-binding proteins. Prolonged exposures to chemokines caused substantial but incomplete desensitization of responses with time constants of 5–7 min and recovery time constants of 12–19 min. CXCR4 and CCR5 exhibited heterologous …

Arachidonic Acid Activates A Proton Current In The Rat Glutamate Transporter Eaat4, Anastassios V. Tzingounis, Chien-Liang Lin, Jeffrey D. Rothstein, Michael Kavanaugh

Biomedical and Pharmaceutical Sciences Faculty Publications

The excitatory amino acid transporter EAAT4 is expressed predominantly in Purkinje neurons in the rat cerebellum (1-3), and it participates in postsynaptic reuptake of glutamate released at the climbing fiber synapse (4). Transporter-mediated currents in Purkinje neurons are increased more than 3-fold by arachidonic acid, a second messenger that is liberated following depolarization-induced Ca²⁺ activation of phospholipase A₂ (5). In this study we demonstrate that application of arachidonic acid to oocytes expressing rat EAAT4 increased glutamate-induced currents to a similar extent. However, arachidonic acid did not cause an increase in the rate …

Model-Based Approach To Envelope And Positive Instantaneous Frequency Estimation Of Signals With Speech Applications, Ramdas Kumaresan, Ashwin Rao

Past Departments Faculty Publications (College of Engineering)

An analytic signal s(t) is modeled over a T second duration by a pole-zero model by considering its periodic extensions. This type of representation is analogous to that used in discrete-time systems theory, where the periodic frequency response of a system is characterized by a finite number of poles and zeros in the z-plane. Except, in this case, the poles and zeros are located in the complex-time plane. Using this signal model, expressions are derived for the envelope, phase, and the instantaneous frequency of the signal s(t). In the special case of an analytic signal having poles and zeros …

A Proposal For Establishment Of A Maritime University In Bangladesh, Sajid Hussain

World Maritime University M.Sc. Dissertations

The main aim of the study is to formulate a process to establish an integrated centre for higher maritime studies and research in Bangladesh. An assessment is made to verify the need for such specialised higher education and research at postgraduate and at doctoral level for the maritime and shipping personnel. It also highlights the need and appropriation for in-service continued education and research. The geographical location, historical background of the emergence of this new country in 1971 and the rehabilitation programme thereafter (in shipping sector) is described. Its diplomatic and political relation with other regional countries is discussed briefly. …

Breeding Ecology And Behavior Of The Hawaiian Hawk, Curtis R. Griffin, Peter W. C. Paton, Thomas S. Baskett

Natural Resources Science Faculty Publications

We studied the ecology of the endangered Hawaiian Hawk (Buteo solitarius) on the island of Hawaii for three breeding seasons. Their breeding strategy is a prime example of a K-selected species characteristic of many birds in tropical environments: clutch size was one and brood-rearing was among the longest reported for any diurnal raptor. Twenty-eight nests were found in a variety of native and exotic habitats. Incubation lasted 38 days, nestlings fledged after 59-63 days, and parents cared for fledglings for an average of 30.2 weeks, which was 2.5 to 10 times longer than similar-size temperate zone raptors. Males …

Isolation And Characterization Of The Saccharomyces Cerevisiae Dpp1 Gene Encoding Diacylglycerol Pyrophosphate Phosphatase, David A. Toke, Wendy L. Bennett, Deidre A. Dillon, Wen-I Wu, Xiaoming Chen, Darin B. Ostrander, June Oshiro, Aida Cremesti, Dennis R. Voelker, Anthony S. Fischl, George M. Carman

Past Departments Faculty Publications (College of Health Sciences)

Diacylglycerol pyrophosphate (DGPP) is involved in a putative novel lipid signaling pathway. DGPP phosphatase (DGPP phosphohydrolase) is a membrane-associated 34-kDa enzyme fromSaccharomyces cerevisiae which catalyzes the dephosphorylation of DGPP to yield phosphatidate (PA) and then catalyzes the dephosphorylation of PA to yield diacylglycerol. Amino acid sequence information derived from DGPP phosphatase was used to identify and isolate the DPP1(diacylglycerol pyrophosphatephosphatase) gene encoding the enzyme. Multicopy plasmids containing the DPP1 gene directed a 10-fold overexpression of DGPP phosphatase activity in S. cerevisiae. The heterologous expression of the S. cerevisiae DPP1 gene in Sf-9 insect cells resulted in a …
