The effect of long-term interleukin-1 beta exposure on sensory neuron electrical membrane properties: implications for neuropathic pain
DownloadSpring 2011
The effect of interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β) on the electrical properties of sensory neurons was assessed at comparable levels and exposure times to those found in animal models of neuropathic pain. Experiments involved whole cell current- or voltage-clamp recordings from rat dorsal root ganglion...

The Effect of Mutations in Stearoyl CoA Desaturase Gene and Fatty Acid Synthase on Milk Composition and Fatty Acid Profile in Milk Fat of Dairy Cows
DownloadFall 2009
The effects of diet on milk fatty acid profile, including conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) have been well documented, however, there is limited information on the interaction of diet with genetics. The objective of this research was to determine the effect of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP)...

Transcriptome profiling of the small intestinal epithelium in germfree versus conventional piglets
Download2007
Beever, Jonathan E., Band, Mark R., Marini, Juan C., Schook, Lawrence B., Chowdhury, Shankar R., Rund, Laurie A., Willing, Benjamin P., Gaskins, H. Rex, King, Dale E., Loor, Juan J., Lane, Adrienne B., Van Kessel, Andrew G.
Background To gain insight into host-microbe interactions in a piglet model, a functional genomics approach was used to address the working hypothesis that transcriptionally regulated genes associated with promoting epithelial barrier function are activated as a defensive response to the...

Khan, Amanda S., Chu, Jackson W. F., Leys, Sally P.
Sponges link the microbial loop with benthic communities by feeding on bacteria. Glass sponge reefs on the continental shelf of western Canada have extremely high grazing rates, consuming seven times more particulate carbon than can be supplied by vertical flux alone. Unlike many sponges, the...

Using EEG to examine inhibitory abilities in children: The effects of time pressure, physical activity, and emotion
DownloadFall 2018
The ability to inhibit inappropriate actions and irrelevant information is crucial for adaptive functioning. Inhibitory skills emerge early in life, with significant growth occurring during the period of early and middle childhood. The objective of this dissertation was to utilize...

Radiotherapy is often used to treat prostate cancer. While using high dose of radiation does kill cancer cells, it can cause toxicity in healthy tissues for some patients. It would be best to apply this treatment only to patients who are likely to be immune from such toxicity. This requires a...
