Investigating the role of coiled-coil domain containing protein 3 (CCDC3), a novel secreted protein, in endothelial inflammation
DownloadFall 2015
Endothelial inflammation is critical in the initiation and progression of atherosclerosis and other cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) is a pro-inflammatory cytokine that induces endothelial inflammation via activation of nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) signaling....

J-Coupling Effects on Quantification of the 1.3 ppm Lipid Methylene Resonance with In-Vivo Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy at 3 T
DownloadFall 2015
Quantification of 1.3 ppm lipid methylene protons by proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy has been shown to be relevant to a number of diseases. Additionally, T2 estimation of 1.3 ppm methylene protons has been used to grade the metastatic potential of colon tumours. J-coupling...

Molecular imaging of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and autotaxin (ATX) in cancer using positron emission tomography (PET)
DownloadFall 2020
Positron emission tomography (PET) relies on the use of β+-emitting radionuclide-bearing molecules congregating and decaying at a specific site of interest. Use of these molecules, called radiotracers, which target common tumor characteristics has become a pillar in the diagnosis of cancer and...
