A novel mouse model of acute antibody-mediated transplant rejection shows simultaneous complement activating and anti-inflammatory effects of donor specific IgG antibodies
DownloadFall 2013
We developed a small animal model of pure antibody-mediated rejection (ABMR) by utilizing fully major histocompatibility complex (MHC) mismatched kidney allografts in mice. By examining resultant ABMR pathology, we show that terminal complement products C5a and C5b-9 are crucial in establishing...

An investigation of the strain field and inter-fragmentary movement of a broken hemi-pelvis
DownloadFall 2015
Pelvic fracture is considered a common and sometimes fatal injury. There are still developments in novel pelvic fixations. In order to investigate the performance of these fixations, a specialized testing set-up is required. Typically, the strains of a few selected points and the changes in the...

Cervid Prion Protein Polymorphisms Modulate the Diversity of Chronic Wasting Disease Prion Strains
DownloadSpring 2017
Chronic wasting disease (CWD) is a contagious prion disease spreading and emerging in wild and captive Cervidae species worldwide. Prion diseases are fatal neurodegenerative disorders occurring in various mammalian species including deer, elk, sheep, cattle and humans. Central to prion...
