Design and synthesis of renewable lipid-based nanocarriers with thermosensitivity for targeted drug delivery applications
DownloadSpring 2024
Numerous drug molecules currently available on the market suffer from short half-life, in vivo instability, poor bioavailability, rapid degradation and inappropriate distribution. While nanocarriers have emerged as a promising solution to address these issues, the primary objective and challenge...

Multiple sources suggest that insulin resistance and derangements of cardiac metabolism are among the earliest signs of type-2 diabetes detected in the heart. Unfortunately, limited evidence reflects early changes in cardiac mitochondrial metabolism linked to the development of this disease....

Heart failure is associated with major changes in cardiac energy metabolism that decrease cardiac efficiency, which can reduce cardiac function. In severe heart failure there is a shift back toward a fetal heart metabolism, with a decrease in mitochondrial oxidative metabolism and increase in...

Growth of oleaginous yeasts on mixed C5 and C6 sugar streams to generate lipid feedstocks for renewable hydrocarbon production
DownloadSpring 2022
Microbial lipids are a promising feedstock to produce renewable fuels. Lignocellulosic feedstocks can provide multiple carbon sources for microbial growth, such as hexoses (C6) and pentoses (C5). Oleaginous yeasts can convert C5 and C6 sugars to microbial lipids that can be further processed into...

Energy substrate utilization in the heart is both altered by- and contributes to- the pathophysiology of heart disease. For example, there is an increased reliance on fatty acid oxidation for energy production in conditions such as diabetes, diabetic cardiomyopathy, and during reperfusion of...

Litter birth weight phenotype and maternal n-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid supplementation in pigs
DownloadSpring 2013
Research reported in this thesis investigated effects of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid (LCPUFA) supplementation, litter birth weight phenotype, and their possible interactions, on reproductive performance of the gilt and sow and postnatal performance of the litter. In an initial study, LCPUFA...

Ischemic heart disease and pulmonary arterial hypertension are often accompanied by a drastic change in myocardial energy metabolism that favors fatty acid oxidation and glycolysis, respectively, over glucose oxidation. This form of energy production is both inefficient and detrimental to the...
