Developmental Remodeling Of Relay Cells In The Dorsal Lateral Geniculate Nucleus (Dlgn) Of The Mouse And The Role Of Retinal Innervation, Rana El-Danaf Sep 2011

Developmental Remodeling Of Relay Cells In The Dorsal Lateral Geniculate Nucleus (Dlgn) Of The Mouse And The Role Of Retinal Innervation, Rana El-Danaf

Theses and Dissertations

The dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus (dLGN) has become an important model for studying many aspects of visual system development. To date, studies have focused on the development of retinal projections and the role of activity in shaping the pattern of synaptic connections made with thalamocortical relay cells. By contrast, little is known about relay cells and the factors that regulate the growth and establishment of their dendritic architecture. In many systems, such growth seems consistent with the synaptotrophic hypothesis which states that synapse formation and dendritic growth work in a concerted fashion such that afferent input and the establishment of …

Bioluminescent Imaging Reveals Divergent Viral Pathogenesis In Two Strains Of Stat1-Deficient Mice, And In Αßγ Interferon Receptor-Deficient Mice, Tracy Jo Pasieka, Lynne Collins, Megan A. O'Connor, Yufei Chen, Zachary M. Parker, Brent L. Berwin, David R. Piwnica-Worms, David A. Leib

Dartmouth Scholarship

Pivotal components of the IFN response to virus infection include the IFN receptors (IFNR), and the downstream factorsignal transducer and activator of transcription 1 (Stat1). Mice deficient for Stat1 and IFNR (Stat12/2 and IFNaßcR2/2 mice) lack responsiveness to IFN and exhibit high sensitivity to various pathogens. Here we examined herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) pathogenesis in Stat12/2 mice and in IFNaßcR2/2 mice following corneal infection and bioluminescent imaging. Two divergent and paradoxical patterns of infection were observed. Mice with an N-terminal deletion in Stat1 (129Stat12/2(N-term)) had transient infection of the liver and spleen, but succumbed to encephalitis by day …

A Blind Circadian Clock In Cavefish Reveals That Opsins Mediate Peripheral Clock Photoreception, Nicola Cavallari, Elena Frigato, Daniela Vallone Sep 2011

A Blind Circadian Clock In Cavefish Reveals That Opsins Mediate Peripheral Clock Photoreception, Nicola Cavallari, Elena Frigato, Daniela Vallone

KIP Articles

The circadian clock is synchronized with the day-night cycle primarily by light. Fish represent fascinating models for deciphering the light input pathway to the vertebrate clock since fish cell clocks are regulated by direct light exposure. Here we have performed a comparative, functional analysis of the circadian clock involving the zebrafish that is normally exposed to the day-night cycle and a cavefish species that has evolved in perpetual darkness. Our results reveal that the cavefish retains a food-entrainable clock that oscillates with an infradian period. Importantly, however, this clock is not regulated by light. This comparative study pinpoints the two …

Differences Between Trypanosoma Brucei Gambiense Groups 1 And 2 In Their Resistance To Killing By Trypanolytic Factor 1, Paul Capewell, Nicola J. Veitch, C. Michael R. Turner, Jayne Raper, Matthew Berriman, Stephen L. Hajduk, Annette Macleod Sep 2011

Differences Between Trypanosoma Brucei Gambiense Groups 1 And 2 In Their Resistance To Killing By Trypanolytic Factor 1, Paul Capewell, Nicola J. Veitch, C. Michael R. Turner, Jayne Raper, Matthew Berriman, Stephen L. Hajduk, Annette Macleod

Publications and Research

Background: The three sub-species of Trypanosoma brucei are important pathogens of sub-Saharan Africa. T. b. brucei is unable to infect humans due to sensitivity to trypanosome lytic factors (TLF) 1 and 2 found in human serum. T. b. rhodesiense and T. b. gambiense are able to resist lysis by TLF. There are two distinct sub-groups of T. b. gambiense that differ genetically and by human serum resistance phenotypes. Group 1 T. b. gambiense have an invariant phenotype whereas group 2 show variable resistance. Previous data indicated that group 1 T. b. gambiense are resistant to TLF-1 due in-part to reduced …

Chemical And Biological Study Of Iraqi Kurdistan Chamomile Flower (Matricaria Recutita L), Sawar I. Mawlood Sep 2011

Chemical And Biological Study Of Iraqi Kurdistan Chamomile Flower (Matricaria Recutita L), Sawar I. Mawlood

Baghdad Science Journal

In this study, the chamomile flowers (Matricaria recutitaL) which grow in Iraqi Kurdistan region during the seasons of (2008) are collected. The percentage of essential oil was determined by using steam distillation and the extraction of flowers performed with petroleum ether (70-80) ºC and methanol 70% using ultrasonic extraction. Total phenolic compounds were determined from methanol extracts by using Folin-Ciocalteu method. The extracts were evaluated by thin layer chromatography, ultraviolet absorption and the biological activities were evaluated through their antibacterial action against two types of bacteria using hole method. The flowers showed a composition of 0.071% ash, 0.4% essential oil, …

Baghdad Science Journal

Liposome-mediated transfection of cancer cells provide a valuable experimental technique to study cellular gene expression and may also be adapted for gene therapy studies. However, the widely recognized advantage of liposome-mediated transfection is high efficiency. Therefore, this study were performed to optimize transfection techniques in human larynx carcinoma cell line Hep-2 using the commercial synthetic lipid TransFast™ Reagent and monitoring the expression efficiency by using the pSV-β-galactosidase Control Vector which encoded β-galactosidase, maximum transfection efficiency were achieved with TransFast™ Reagent used at the Charge ratios of 2:1 and 0.5 µg DNA/ml, this is indicate that TransFast™ Reagent can be used …

The Effect Of Sodium Deoxycholate On The Production Of Newcastle Virus Inoculated In Chorioallantoic Membrane, Eman A. Mahmood, Abdul-Latif M. Ahmad, Amna N. Jassim

Baghdad Science Journal

Newcastle Disease is one of the most important disease world wide distributions which invade the flock in different age resulting in large economic losses. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of treatment with 4 different concentrations (0.25, 0.5, 1.0 and 2.0 %) of Sodium deoxycholate (SDC) on the vaccinal virus (La Sota) using inoculation in the fragments of Chorioallantoic membrane. The treatment with each of the above 4 concentrations of SDC resulted in an increase in the Hemagglutination titer (HA) of the virus (28, 29.6, 211.6, 214.6) respectively as compared to the HA titer value for the untreated virus …

Production Of Slime Layer By Staphylococcus Epidermidisisolated From Corneal Infection, Munira Ch. Ismail, Fais I. Ali, Sinai W. Mohammed

Baghdad Science Journal

A total of 37 Staphylococcus epidermidis isolates, isolated from corneal scraping of patients with bacterial keratitis and 20 isolates from healthy eyes (as control) (all isolates, isolated from, Ibn Al- Haietham eye hospital / Baghdad), were tested for slime production, 52.63% of all isolates were positive-slime production (23 isolates from patients and 7 isolates from controls). It was found that positive-slime producing S. epidermidis were exhibited a high resistance to antibiotics as compared to negative-slime producing isolates.

Determination Of Uranium Concentration In Sheep Organs For Some IraqiۥS Cities, Nada F. Tawfiq, Rana M. Yas, Nesreen B. Alrawi, Mazin M Elias

Baghdad Science Journal

The aim of this research is to determine the uranium concentration and its distribution in many sheep organs that live in different region of Iraq. The uranium concentration in tissue samples is measured by using fission tracks registration in CR-39 detector that caused by the bombardment of U235 with thermal neutrons from (241Am-Be) neutron source of thermal flux (5x 103 n.cm-2. s-1). The results show that the maximum uranium concentration in bronchiole tissues of the animals was found in Karbala city (3.706ppm) while the minimum concentration (0.127 ppm) was found in Al-Faluja city, also the same result in lung tissue …

Tropical Medicine: A Clinical Text, 8th Edition, Revised And Expanded, Kevin M. Cahill, M.D.

Institute of International Humanitarian Affairs

The history of tropical medicine is as dramatic as the story of humankind. It has its own myths and legends, including tales of epidemics that destroyed whole civilizations. Today, with silent stealth, tropical diseases still claim more lives than all the current wars combined. Having had the privilege of working throughout Africa, Asia, and Latin America, as well as in the great medical centers of Europe and the United States, the author presents the details essential for understanding pathogenesis, clinical manifestations, therapy, and prevention of the major tropical diseases. The text, now in its eighth edition, has been used for …
