At₁ Angiotensin Ii Receptor And Novel Non-At₁, Non-At₂ Angiotensin Ii/Iii Binding Site In Brainstem Cardiovascular Regulatory Centers Of The Spontaneously Hypertensive Rat, Erick A. Bourassa, Xiefan Fang, Xia Li, Alan F. Sved, Robert C. Speth

HPD Articles

Spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) have an activated brain angiotensin system that contributes to the elevation of blood pressure in this animal model. Physiological and pharmacological studies suggest that hyperactivation of brain AT₁ angiotensin receptors is a major pathophysiological factor. Consistent with these observations, radioligand binding studies indicate widespread up-regulation of brain angiotensin receptors in SHR. One key brainstem site in which AT₁ receptor stimulation appears to contribute to the elevated blood pressure in SHR is the rostral ventrolateral medulla (RVLM). However, no quantitative comparison of AT₁ receptor binding in the RVLM has been made in SHR versus normotensive rats. A …

Assessment Of “Community Stepping Stones,” A Community-Based Youth Art Education Program, Jennifer E. A. Pedraza

USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations

Community Stepping Stones is an art education program whose objective is to

“provide education, mentor children and adolescents, enhance the community

economics, and enrich the quality of life in the community” (Community Steppping

Stones [CSS], 2009a). Community art education programs, particularly for youth, have

become increasingly popular as a way to address and prevent delinquent behavior.

However, art education programs have proven challenging to evaluate and sustain.

The goal of my thesis was to explore how Community Stepping Stones

implemented and evaluated a community-based youth arts education program

compared to other, similar programs and how the organization could make the …

The Handling Of Missing Data In Molecular Epidemiologic Studies, Manisha Desai, Jessica Kubo, Denise Esserman, Mary Beth Terry

COBRA Preprint Series

Background: Molecular epidemiologic studies face a missing data problem as biospecimen data are often collected on only a proportion of subjects eligible for study.

Methods: We investigated all molecular epidemiologic studies published in CEBP in 2009 to characterize the prevalence of missing data and to elucidate how the issue was addressed. We considered multiple imputation (MI), a missing data technique that is readily available and easy to implement, as a possible solution.

Results: While the majority of studies had missing data, only 16% compared subjects with and without missing data. Furthermore, 95% of the studies with missing data performed a …

The Use Of Multiple Imputation In Molecular Epidemiologic Studies Assessing Interaction Effects, Manisha Desai, Denise Esserman, Marilie Gammon, Mary Beth Terry

COBRA Preprint Series

Background: In molecular epidemiologic studies biospecimen data are collected on only a proportion of subjects eligible for study. This leads to a missing data problem. Missing data methods, however, are not typically incorporated into analyses. Instead, complete-case (CC) analyses are performed, which result in biased and inefficient estimates.

Methods: Through simulations, we characterized the bias that results from CC methods when interaction effects are estimated, as this is a major aim of many molecular epidemiologic studies. We also investigated whether standard multiple imputation (MI) could improve estimation over CC methods when the data are not missing at random (NMAR) and …

Sensor To Detect Endothelialization On An Active Coronary Stent, Katherine M. Musick, Arthur C. Coffey, Pedro P. Irazoqui Dr.

Weldon School of Biomedical Engineering Faculty Publications

Background

A serious complication with drug-eluting coronary stents is late thrombosis, caused by exposed stent struts not covered by endothelial cells in the healing process. Real-time detection of this healing process could guide physicians for more individualized anti-platelet therapy. Here we present work towards developing a sensor to detect this healing process. Sensors on several stent struts could give information about the heterogeneity of healing across the stent.

Methods

A piezoelectric microcantilever was insulated with parylene and demonstrated as an endothelialization detector for incorporation within an active coronary stent. After initial characterization, endothelial cells were plated onto the cantilever surface. …

The Mycobacterium Tuberculosis Drugome And Its Polypharmacological Implications, Sarah L. Kinnings, Li Xie, Kingston H. Fung, Richard M. Jackson, Lei Xie, Phillip E. Bourne

Publications and Research

We report a computational approach that integrates structural bioinformatics, molecular modelling and systems biology to construct a drug-target network on a structural proteome-wide scale. The approach has been applied to the genome of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M.tb), the causative agent of one of today’s most widely spread infectious diseases. The resulting drug-target interaction network for all structurally characterized approved drugs bound to putative M.tb receptors, we refer to as the ‘TB-drugome’. The TB-drugome reveals that approximately one-third of the drugs examined have the potential to be repositioned to treat tuberculosis and that many currently unexploited M.tb receptors may be chemically druggable …

Angiostatic Regulators In Ovarian Cancer, Christina Diane Drenberg

USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations

Angiogenesis by either normal or neoplastic cells involves a delicate balance of both angiogenic and angiostatic regulators. In the ovary, normal physiological angiogenesis occurs around the developing follicle and corpus luteum in response to hormonal shifts. Interestingly, carcinomas arising from the ovary are usually highly vascularized and are commonly clinically observed to produce cyst fluids or ascites which contain both angiostatic and/or angiogenic regulators. However, in contrast to normal angiogenesis, angiogenesis associated with epithelial ovarian cancer usually produces aberrant vasculature that may promote neoplastic progression. Therefore, the ovary and ovarian cancers provide models to study the mechanisms governing the strict …

Seeing Double: A Diplopic Aesthetic In Experience And Performance, Samuel S. Sloan

Research Papers

This investigation uses an autoethnographic approach to investigate the author's personal, phenomenological experience of diplopia, double vision, in order to apply the lived condition to an aesthetic form in performance. Using Kuppers's notion of a “crip aesthetic,” this piece re-functions a potential aspect of disability, the condition of diplopia, as a way of opening up discourses of multiplicity in art and performance. The author also calls for others to integrate non-normative body states into their art praxis.

Computational Biology, Harvey Greenberg, Allen Holder

Mathematical Sciences Technical Reports (MSTR)

Computational biology is an interdisciplinary field that applies the techniques of computer science, applied mathematics, and statistics to address biological questions. OR is also interdisciplinary and applies the same mathematical and computational sciences, but to decision-making problems. Both focus on developing mathematical models and designing algorithms to solve them. Models in computational biology vary in their biological domain and can range from the interactions of genes and proteins to the relationships among organisms and species.

The Anchor, Volume 124.08: November 3, 2010, Hope College

The Anchor: 2010

The Anchor began in 1887 and was first issued weekly in 1914. Covering national and campus news alike, Hope College’s student-run newspaper has grown over the years to encompass over two-dozen editors, reporters, and staff. For much of The Anchor's history, the latest issue was distributed across campus each Wednesday throughout the academic school year (with few exceptions). In recent years The Anchor moved to monthly print issues and a more frequently updated website. The Anchor is now published in print twice per academic semester. Occasionally, the volume and/or issue numbering is irregular.
