The adipocyte-derived lipokine, C16:1n7-palmitoleate, regulates a variety of functions such as systemic glucose and fatty acid metabolism. Under normal physiological conditions, palmitoleate levels are regulated by de novo lipogenesis. During pathological conditions where there are enhanced rates...

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...

CHROMATOGRAPHY APPROACHES FOR ANALYZING FRYING OILS AND ASSESSING THE ANTIOXIDATIVE ABILITY OF SITOSTEROL
DownloadFall 2013
The novel utility of sitosterol as an antioxidant in frying oils is explained mechanistically based on physical organic chemistry principles. The antioxidative effect of sitosterol is attributed to the conversion of sterol to steradiene by the 1, 2 elimination of water, which may be catalyzed by...
