Effect of Cholesterol Accumulation on the Metabolism of Amyloid Precursor Protein (APP) in Cultured N2a Cells
DownloadFall 2015
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder believed to be triggered by the accumulation of β-amyloid (Aβ) peptides derived from the proteolytic processing of amyloid precursor protein (APP). Accumulated evidence has shown that alterations in the levels and/or subcellular...

Effects of Egg White Derived Peptides on Metabolic Syndrome Complications: Hypertension, Inflammation, and Insulin resistance
DownloadSpring 2018
Metabolic syndrome (MetS), a cluster of several abnormalities of hypertension, inflammation, glucose intolerance and dyslipidemia, enhances a personâs risk for cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes. The number of people with MetS is increasing largely worldwide. The multi-faceted nature of...

Egg-derived tri-peptide IRW exerts antihypertensive effects in spontaneously hypertensive rats
Download2013
Majumder, Kaustav, Kaufman, Susan, Chakrabarti, Subhadeep, Morton, Jude S., Panahi, Sareh, Wu, Jianping, Davidge, Sandra T.
Background There is a growing interest in using functional food components as therapy for cardiovascular diseases such as hypertension. We have previously characterized a tri-peptide IRW (Ile-Arg-Trp) from egg white protein ovotransferrin; this peptide showed anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant and...

Exploring Novel Therapies for Motor and Non-Motor Symptoms in a Mouse Model of Multiple Sclerosis
DownloadSpring 2016
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic autoimmune disease of the central nervous system characterized by neurodegeneration, inflammation and demyelination. Symptoms of multiple sclerosis not only include motor deficits, but also secondary symptoms of pain, depression and anxiety. The purpose of...

Functional and topological analysis of yeast acyl-CoA:diacylglycerol acyltransferase 2, an endoplasmic reticulum enzyme essential for triacylglycerol biosynthesis
Download2011
Siloto, Rodrigo M. P., Snyder, Crystal L., Liu, Qin, Weselake, Randall J.
Acyl-CoA:diacylglycerol acyltransferase (EC 2.3.1.20) is a membrane protein present mainly in the endoplasmic reticulum. It catalyzes the final and committed step in the biosynthesis of triacylglycerol, which is the principal repository of fatty acids for energy utilization and membrane...

Bohnert, H. J., Deyholos, M., Brazille, S., Wang, H., Kawai, K., Borchert, C., Galbraith, D., Kawasaki, S.
Transcript regulation in response to high salinity was investigated for salt-tolerant rice (var Pokkali) with microarrays including 1728 cDNAs from libraries of salt-stressed roots. NaCl at 150 mM reduced photosynthesis to one tenth of the prestress value within minutes. Hybridizations of RNA to...

Glial Expression of Amyloid Precursor Protein (APP) and its Processing Enzymes in the ANPC Mouse Model
DownloadFall 2021
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a complex and progressive neurodegenerative disorder believed to be triggered by the accumulation of β-amyloid (Aβ) peptides derived from the proteolytic processing of amyloid precursor protein (APP). The regions primarily affected in AD brains are the hippocampus and...

Hemodynamic Changes in the Prefrontal Cortex during Functional Activation in Essential Hypertension Measured by Near Infrared Spectroscopy
DownloadFall 2014
Chronic hypertension induces microvascular changes in the prefrontal cortex (PFC) which could influence oxygenation status. However, hypertension-related changes in oxygenation in the PFC and cognition, especially during functional stresses, remain poorly investigated. This project consisted of...

Seligmann, B., Deyholos, M., Kris, R. M., Felder, S., Botros, I., Galbraith, D. W., Martel, R., Hinton, J., Lambert, G. M.
High-throughput gene expression analysis of genes expressed during salt stress was performed using a novel multiplexed quantitative nuclease protection assay that involves customized DNA microarrays printed within the individual wells of 96-well plates. The levels of expression of the transcripts...
