Nanodelivery of Novel Inhibitors of ERCC1/XPF for sensitizing colorectal cancer cell to platinum drugs
DownloadSpring 2023
This project's long-term goal is to increase the efficacy of genotoxic therapeutics through thesensitization of cells to DNA-damaging therapy ahead of the treatment. The focus of this projectwas on the enhancement of platinum-based chemotherapeutics in colorectal cancer usingcolorectal cancer...

Non digestible carbohydrates in the diet determine toxicity of irinotecan (CPT-11)/5-fluorouracil in rats independently of β-glucuronidase activity in intestinal lumen
DownloadFall 2012
Aim of this study was to assess effects of non-digestible carbohydrates on the pathobiology of mucosal injury after chemotherapy. Rats bearing colon tumor (n=6/diet) were fed diets including 8% (w/w) as either cellulose, inulin, fructo-oligosaccharide (OligoF), 50:50 (w/w) inulin and oligoF...

Practical Considerations for Body Composition Assessment of Adults with Class II/III Obesity Using Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis or Dual-Energy X-Ray Absorptiometry
Download2016-09-03
Johnson Stoklossa, Carlene A., Forhan, Mary, Padwal, Raj S., Gonzalez, Maria Cristina, Prado, Carla M.
Purpose of Review The purpose of this review is to explore the practical considerations for body composition assessment of adults with class II/III obesity. Studies assessing adults (18–64 years) with a body mass index (BMI) ≥35 kg/m2 with bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) and/or dual-energy...

Quantitative Label-Free Comparative Proteomic Analyses of Eukaryotic Tissues via Mass Spectrometry
DownloadFall 2018
In recent years, rapid advances in genomic and transcriptomic sequencing technologies have enabled the compilation of vast libraries of protein sequences and thus an explosion in bioinformatics-based fields of research. Among these is proteomics – the study of global protein abundance within a...
