Fall 2011
Complex II, or succinate dehydrogenase, is a vital component of aerobic life. Its function is critical for both the tricarboxylic acid cycle and the mitochondrial respiratory chain since it catalyzes the oxidation of succinate to fumarate, liberating two electrons that feed into the lipid-soluble...

Nelson, A. G., Spaner, D. M., Frick, B., Clapperton, M.J., Hucl, P. J., Thavarajah, D., Quideau, S. A.
Abstract: Micronutrient deficiencies in the diet of many people are common and wheat is a staple food crop, providing a carbohydrate and micronutrient source to a large percentage of the world’s population. We conducted a field study to compare five Canadian red spring wheat cultivars (released...

Fall 2013
Asphyxia is a significant cause of newborn morbidity and mortality. Multiorgan injury and dysfunction is a common finding, mediated in part through an increase in matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) activity. We hypothesized administration of doxycycline, a known MMP inhibitor, would improve systemic...

Tumor necrosis factor triggers the expression and activation of matrix metalloproteinases through NADPH-dependent superoxide production
DownloadSpring 2010
Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) is upregulated in a number of cardiomyopathies. This thesis investigates TNF in triggering the expression and activation of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) in pressure overload cardiac disease, and explores the role of superoxide. Cardiac pressure overload was...

Unique cellular interactions between the obligate intracellular bacteria Wolbachia pipientis and its insect host
DownloadFall 2011
Wolbachia are maternally inherited obligate intracellular bacteria found in arthropods, where they induce feminization, male-killing, parthenogenesis, and cytoplasmic incompatibility (CI). CI is conditional male sterility, in which Wolbachia-infected males successfully mate with infected females,...
