Long Term Ocular Drug Delivery with Novel Pentablock Copolymers; Part I: Composite Nanoformulation of Macromolecules For Back of the Eye Diseases, Part II: Dexamethasone Nanoparticle to Develop an In Vitro Model for Glaucoma
(University of Missouri -- Kansas City, 2017)
Pentablock (PB) copolymers have been successfully synthesized for long term delivery in
the treatment of posterior segment ocular diseases. PB copolymers are comprised of FDA
approved biodegradable polymer such as ...
Metabolomic Analysis of Bacterial Cell Wall Intermediates Using LC-MS/MS: Peptidoglycan Pathway Response to Different Antibiotics
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2017)
The bacterial cell wall is made up of peptidoglycan (PG) and its synthesis is of
interest as a target for several antibiotics and for new inhibitor development. Peptidoglycan
biosynthesis is a complex process which ...
Synthesis, Characterization and Device Studies of Conjugated Foldamers
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2017)
Conjugated polymers have found a wide range of electronic applications in last few
decades due to their superior combination of optoelectronic, mechanical properties, and
solution processability. In the past few years, ...
Discovery of PSMA-Specific Peptide Ligands and Development of A Noncovalent Method to Attach Chemical Moieties to siRNA
(University of Missouri -- Kansas City, 2017)
The objective of this dissertation is to discover PSMA (Prostate Specific Membrane
Antigen)-specific peptide ligands using phage display and employ peptide nucleic acid as
a complementary linker to attach chemical ...
The effect of HIV-1 Tat and methamphetamine on expression of cytokines/chemokines and synaptic genes: Implications in HIV neuroAIDS
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2017)
Human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1) enters the brain through blood brain barrier
(BBB) early after the infection and leads to various neurological complications including HIV
associated dementia (HAD). Introduction ...
