Redox and Light Derived Mechanisms of Environmental Perception are Utilized for Regulation of the Cyanobacterial RNA Helicase crhR
DownloadSpring 2020
Cyanobacteria occur worldwide in environments that contain water and sunlight. They are crucial, positive players in carbon, oxygen and nitrogen cycling and function as producers of biosynthetic products such as biofuels. To optimize these processes, understanding mechanisms by which...

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs, which are known to regulate plant responses to abiotic stresses, such as Cold Stress (CS) and during normal growth and development. In Brassica napus (canola), miRNAs regulate various developmental processes and responses to metal stress however;...

Profiling and Identification of Post-Transcriptional Regulatory Molecules for Human Cancer Cachexia
DownloadSpring 2017
Cancer cachexia (CC) is a multifactorial syndrome characterized by severe depletion of skeletal muscle, with or without fat loss. A majority of cancer patients with incurable cancer are affected with cachexia and it remains an unmet medical need. Gene expression changes at the transcriptional...

NPAS3 encodes a transcription factor of the bHLH-PAS family, which has been robustly associated with neurodevelopmental and psychiatric disorders with intellectual disability as a common feature. NPAS3 was initially discovered as a schizophrenia-associated gene in a family with a translocation...

Maintenance of the gut health of calves is vital because enteric infections are associated with high mortality during the pre-weaned period. The small intestine is the primary site of many enteric infections and plays an important role in protecting the host from pathogenic infection through both...

Genome wide identification and functional prediction of long non-coding RNAs responsive to Sclerotinia sclerotiorum infection in Brassica napus
Download2016
Rahman, Muhammad H., Megha, Swati, Joshi, Raj K., Basu, Urmila, Kav, Nat N. V.
Sclerotinia stem rot caused by Sclerotinia sclerotiorum affects canola production worldwide. Emerging evidence suggests that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play important roles in the regulation of gene expression in plants, in response to both abiotic and biotic stress. So far, identification of...

Comparative transcriptomic analysis of rectal tissue from beef steers revealed reduced host immunity in Escherichia coli O157:H7 super-shedders
Download2016-03-09
McAllister, Tim A., Wang, Ou, Plastow, Graham, Stanford, Kim, Liang, Guanxiang, Guan, Le L., Selinger, Brent
Super-shedder cattle are a major disseminator of E. coli O157:H7 into the environment, and the terminal rectum has been proposed as the primary E. coli O157:H7 colonization site. This study aimed to identify host factors that are associated with the super-shedding process by comparing...

Profiling and Identification of Small Non-coding RNAs as Prognostic Markers for Breast Cancer
DownloadFall 2016
Breast cancer (BC) continues to be one of the leading causes of cancer related death among women. Despite continuous progress in screening, diagnosis and treatment of BC, a subset of patients experience recurrence and/or death. Optimal management of BC has remained a challenge due to these...

Potential regulatory role of microRNAs in the development of bovine gastrointestinal tract during early life
Download2014
Liang, Guanxiang, Bao, Hua, Guan, Leluo, Griebel, Philip J., Stothard, Paul, McFadden, Thomas B., Malmuthuge, Nilusha
This study aimed to investigate the potential regulatory role of miRNAs in the development of gastrointestinal tract (GIT) during the early life of dairy calves. Rumen and small intestinal (mid-jejunum and ileum) tissue samples were collected from newborn (30 min after birth; n = 3), 7-day-old...

Characterization of the altered gene expression profile in early porcine embryos generated from parthenogenesis and somatic cell chromatin transfer
Download2014
Dobrinsky, John, Zhou, Chi, Dixon, Walter T., Dyck, Michael K., Stothard, Paul, Foxcroft, George R., Tsoi, Stephen, Verstegen, John
The in vitro production of early porcine embryos is of particular scientific and economic interest. In general, embryos produced from in vitro Assisted Reproductive Technologies (ART) manipulations, such as somatic cell chromatin transfer (CT) and parthenogenetic activation (PA), are less...
