A characterization of inflammatory and structural markers within the rumen epithelium during grain-induced ruminal acidosis in lactating dairy cattle
Download2012
Steele, Michael A., Plaizier, Jan C., AlZahal, Ousama, Dionissopoulos, Louis, McBride, Brian W.
The objective of this study was to characterize the mRNA and protein expression of inflammatory and structural genes in the rumen epithelium during grain-induced ruminal acidosis in lactating dairy cattle. A total of 16 rumen-fistulated, lactating Holstein dairy cattle (618±35 kg of body weight,...

A molecular assessment of range expansion of the northern or virile crayfish (Orconectes virilis), crayfish-based community co-structure, and phylogeny of crayfish-affiliated symbionts
DownloadFall 2012
Geographical limits of a species’ range are determined in part by the environmental tolerances of that species, and also by its past and current ability to colonize new areas. Range shifts are a common occurrence in the evolutionary history of almost all taxa; however, anthropogenically-mediated...

Acid-base properties of cyanobacterial surfaces II: Silica as a chemical stressor influencing cell surface reactivity
Download2008
Owttrim, G.W., Lalonde, S.V., Smith, D.S., Konhauser, K.O.
Bacteria grow in complex solutions where the adsorption of aqueous species and nucleation of mineral phases on the cell surface may interfere with membrane-dependent homeostatic functions. While previous investigations have provided evidence that bacteria may alter their surface chemical...

Altered microRNA expression in bovine subcutaneous and visceral adipose tissues from cattle under different diet
Download2012
Guan, Leluo, Romao, Josue M., McAllister, Tim, He, Maolong, Jin, Weiwu
Background MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of molecular regulators found to participate in numerous biological processes, including adipogenesis in mammals. This study aimed to evaluate the differences of miRNA expression between bovine subcutaneous (backfat) and visceral fat depots (perirenal...

Alternative Requirements for Vestigial, Scalloped, and Dmef2 during Muscle Differentiation in Drosophila melanogaster
Download2009
Bell, J. B., Deng, H., Simmonds, A. J., Hughes, S. C.
Abstract: Vertebrate development requires the activity of the myocyte enhancer factor 2 (mef2) gene family for muscle cell specification and subsequent differentiation. Additionally, several muscle-specific functions of MEF2 family proteins require binding additional cofactors including members...

Analyzing taphonomic deformation of ankylosaur skulls using retrodeformation and finite element analysis
Download2012
Taphonomic deformation can make the interpretation of vertebrate fossil morphology difficult. The effects of taphonomic deformation are investigated in two ankylosaurid dinosaur taxa, Euoplocephalus tutus (to investigate effects on our understanding of intraspecific variation) and Minotaurasaurus...
