Differential responses in placenta and fetal thymus at 12 days post infection elucidate mechanisms of viral level and fetal compromise following PRRSV2 infection
Download2020-01-01
Van Goor, Angelica, Pasternak, Alex, Walker, Kristen, Hong, Linjun, Malgarin, Carolina, MacPhee, Daniel J., Harding, John C. S., Lunney, Joan K.
Background:A pregnant gilt infected with porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) can transmit the virus to her fetuses across the maternal-fetal-interface resulting in varying disease outcomes. However,the mechanisms leading to variation in fetal outcome in response to PRRSV...

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,...

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...

Anti-Cancer Mechanism of Trastuzumab via Blocking Nuclear HER2 Function and Epigenetic Mechanism of Resistance
DownloadSpring 2020
HER2 receptor tyrosine kinase (encoded by ERBB2 gene) is overexpressed in approximately 25% of all breast cancer tumors (known as HER2-positive breast cancers). Overexpression of HER2 causes overactivation of downstream receptor tyrosine kinase pathways including PI3K/Akt and MAPK pathways and is...

Assessing the Potential for Hybrid Vigour Within a Species: Disparate Population Breeding of Balsam Poplar
DownloadFall 2021
When two or more species are crossed to produce hybrid progeny, some of them can be expected to yield a growth performance far superior to that of either parent (i.e., hybrid vigour/heterosis). To date, there have been few attempts to examine whether hybrid vigour can be achieved by crossing...

Autoregulation of RNA helicase expression in response to temperature stress in Synechocystis spCC 6803
Download2012
Owttrim, George W., Chamot, Danuta, Rosana, Albert R. R.
RNA helicases are ubiquitous enzymes whose modification of RNA secondary structure is known to regulate RNA function. The pathways controlling RNA helicase expression, however, have not been well characterized. Expression of the cyanobacterial RNA helicase, crhR, is regulated in response to...
