Spring 2018
Renal cell carcinoma comprises approximately 2-3% of all malignancies, with the majority, approximately 70%, being clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). ccRCC features many cancer hallmarks such as suppressed mitochondrial glucose oxidation, apoptosis-resistance, angiogenesis, immune evasion,...

Method, degree and lineage of prenatal maternal stress: effects on inflammatory and stress marker profiles of reproductive tissues and pregnancy outcomes
DownloadSpring 2023
Lopes, Nayara Gabriela Antunes
Prenatal maternal stress (PNMS) is any type of stress that pregnant women and animals experience. It was reported that over 70% of pregnant women experience low to moderate stress, while 6% experience high stress. Growing evidence indicates that PNMS influences maternal and offspring health...

Microtubules and Energy Metabolism: Targets for Standard, Combination, and Novel Therapeutic Interventions and Monitoring of Cancer
DownloadSpring 2016
The challenge of understanding and treating cancer has proven to be exceedingly complex. At this juncture, understanding cancer from the perspective of a breakdown of a complex cooperative system using a biophysical analysis may aid in improved treatments and prevention of this disease. In any...

Mitochondria generate reactive oxygen species (mROS) and metabolic substrates like alpha-ketogluterate (αKG), in proportion to oxygen, which target extra-mitochondrial effectors to coordinate a cellular response. For example, acute hypoxia decreases mROS, resulting in pulmonary artery smooth...

Infection with herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) leads to the rapid and complete loss of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and mitochondrial messenger RNA (mt-mRNA), effectively eliminating gene expression within mitochondria. Previous work determined that a unique 3’ co-terminal transcript arising...

The human neuraminidases (NEU1, NEU2, NEU3, and NEU4) are a family of enzymes implicated in pathologies including cancer and diabetes. Our group has developed selective inhibitors for these enzymes that have been employed as tools to understand their biological roles. Several reports have linked...

Plakoglobin (γ-catenin) is a member of the Armadillo family of proteins and a homolog of β-catenin with similar dual adhesive and signaling functions. The adhesive function of these proteins is mediated by their interactions with cadherins and their signaling function by association with various...

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...
