Role Of Nf-KB Signaling In Multiple Myeloma, Rachel Rajavi Pallapati

Master's Theses and Doctoral Dissertations

Genomic DNA was purified from Multiple Myeloma Cell Line JJN3, and BMF promoter region was PCR amplified and cloned into pCR 2.1 TOPO vector using One Shot® Chemically Competent E. coli. After confirmation of the clone through polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and restriction analysis, BMF promoter (2.5 Kb) was released from TOPO vector and subcloned into pGL3 promoter vector. The resulting pGL3-BMF-promoter vector was further amplified for MaxiPrep preparation. This plasmid can be used to study the regulation of BMF promoter by various transcription factors including NF-κB family members.

Examining The Affects Of Four Mental Images On Student Dancers' Jumping Height, Teresa Heiland

Dance Faculty Works

A quasi-experimental design was used to assess effects of Franklin Method images on dancers’ jump height. Thirteen dancers applied four image interventions while performing first position jumps for vertical height analysis. Mean heights and within-trial jump degradation and variability were examined. A repeated-measures mixed model analysis with covariates was used to assess whether jump heights differed significantly from baseline. Two of the four images showed significant increases in jump height above baseline. A linear time effect was also found over the course of the study. Anecdotal self-reports revealed that there appeared to be no correlation between jump height and imagery …

A Novel Allosteric Inhibitor Of Macrophage Migration Inhibitory Factor (Mif), Fengwei Bai, Oluwatoyin A. Asojo, Pier Cirillo, Mihai Ciustea, Michel Ledzidet, Paul A. Aristoff, Lin Leng, Raymond A. Koski, Thomas J. Powell, Richard Bucala, Karen G. Anthony

Faculty Publications

Macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) is a catalytic cytokine and an upstream mediator of the inflammatory pathway. MIF has broad regulatory properties, dysregulation of which has been implicated in the pathology of multiple immunological diseases. Inhibition of MIF activity with small molecules has proven beneficial in a number of disease models. Known small molecule MIF inhibitors typically bind in the tautomerase site of the MIF trimer, often covalently modifying the catalytic proline. Allosteric MIF inhibitors, particularly those that associate with the protein by noncovalent interactions, could reveal novel ways to block MIF activity for therapeutic benefit and serve as chemical …

Automatic And Robust Calibration Of Optical Detector Arrays For Biomedical Diffuse Optical Spectroscopy, Michael A. Mastanduno, Shudong Jiang, Roberta Diflorio-Alexander, Brian W. Pogue, Keith Paulsen

Dartmouth Scholarship

The design and testing of a new, fully automated, calibration approach is described. The process was used to calibrate an image-guided diffuse optical spectroscopy system with 16 photomultiplier tubes (PMTs), but can be extended to any large array of optical detectors and associated imaging geometry. The design goals were accomplished by developing a routine for robust automated calibration of the multi-detector array within 45 minutes. Our process was able to characterize individual detectors to a median norm of the residuals of 0.03 V for amplitude and 4.4 degrees in phase and achieved less than 5% variation between all the detectors …

Measuring Infertility In Populations: Constructing A Standard Definition For Use With Demographic And Reproductive Health Surveys, Maya N. Mascarenhas, Hoiwan Cheung, Colin D. Mathers, Gretchen A. Stevens

Dartmouth Scholarship

Background: Infertility is a significant disability, yet there are no reliable estimates of its global prevalence. Studies on infertility prevalence define the condition inconsistently, rendering the comparison of studies or quantitative summaries of the literature difficult. This study analyzed key components of infertility to develop a definition that can be consistently applied to globally available household survey data.

Methods: We proposed a standard definition of infertility and used it to generate prevalence estimates using 53 Demographic and Health Surveys (DHS). The analysis was restricted to the subset of DHS that contained detailed fertility information collected through the reproductive health calendar. …

A Comparison Of Traditional And Bayesian Statistical Models In Fluvial Sediment Transport, Mark L. Schmelter, David King Stevens

Civil and Environmental Engineering Faculty Publications

The characterization of sediment transport is an important problem that has been actively studied for some time. Numerous approaches have been demonstrated in the literature, including mechanistic models, probabilistic arguments, machine learning algorithms, and empirical formulations. Most implementations of sediment transport relations are deterministic in nature and require the specification of model parameters. These parameters are traditionally assumed fixed (i.e., a single value), and subsequent predictions are not necessarily representative because of uncertainty because they are fixed (i.e., a line). In this paper, a Bayesian statistical sediment transport model is presented, and its ability to infer critical shear values from …

College Women’S Experiences Of Intimate Partner Violence: Exploring Mental Health Issues, F. Scott Christopher, Tiffani S. Kisler

Human Development and Family Science Faculty Publications

College women’s experiences with sexual and physical violence are so common that campus interventions are needed. To help guide these, we surveyed 339 college women and asked: (a) are college women’s experiences with different types of relational violence interrelated and (b) are there patterns of association between types of violence and mental health symptoms? Analyses showed that experiences with verbal aggression, and minor and major physical violence overlapped. Experiences of sexual assault and minor physical violence also co-occurred. Moreover, women who encountered verbal and physical, but not sexual violence, suffered from symptoms of hostility, anxiety, and depression; those who encountered …

The Role Of Meis1 In Hematopoietic Development, Mi Cai

All Theses and Dissertations (ETDs)

Previous work has identified Mesp1 as an important regulator of the epithelial–mesenchymal transition: EMT) and of cardiovascular cell fate in differentiating embryonic stem cells: ESCs). To understand the molecular mechanisms underlying the actions of Mesp1, we sought to identify transcription targets of Mesp1. Mesp1 rapidly induced expression of PDGFRα in differentiating ESCs and directly bound to evolutionary conserved E-boxes within the PDGFRα promoter. This result suggested that PDGFRα could be a direct target of Mesp1. However, we found that PDGFRα was not sufficient for the induction of EMT in ESCs or the induction of Flk1+ mesoderm, but that it may …

Reading Your Own Mind: Dynamic Visualization Of Real-Time Neural Signals, Zachary V. Freudenburg

All Theses and Dissertations (ETDs)

Brain Computer Interfaces: BCI) systems which allow humans to control external devices directly from brain activity, are becoming increasingly popular due to dramatic advances in the ability to both capture and interpret brain signals. Further advancing BCI systems is a compelling goal both because of the neurophysiology insights gained from deriving a control signal from brain activity and because of the potential for direct brain control of external devices in applications such as brain injury recovery, human prosthetics, and robotics. The dynamic and adaptive nature of the brain makes it difficult to create classifiers or control systems that will remain …

Contract Law In A Comparative Perspective, Suharnoko Suharnoko

Indonesia Law Review

Media reports on cases of the theft of pre-paid pulses taking place nowadays have created a misunderstanding in terms of the appropriate application of criminal law. In the context of existing legal provisions concerning consumer protection as set forth both under the Consumer Protection Law as well as in part under the Telecommunications Law, law enforcement agencies are leaning towards applying general criminal provisions (theft) which, after a careful observation of the Indonesian Criminal Code, in fact do not extend to corporate criminal acts. This paper purports to explain that the currently occurring cases of the theft of pre-paid pulses …
