Investigating the bifunctional chelate approach for radiopharmaceutical development
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Radiopharmaceuticals are drugs that contain a radioactive atom for the purpose of imaging or therapy of disease. The type of emission determines the ...
Synthesis and structure-activity relationship of a series of sigma receptor ligands
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
Sigma receptors are involved in several biological processes, and sigma ligands might be promising as cancer treatment agents, cocaine abuse medicines, and valuable psychiatric drugs. In an attempt to elucidate effectual ...
Design and construction of multicomponent spheroidal assemblies on the nano-scale via the self-assembly approach
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Supramolecular chemists can be thought of as the architects of the nano-scale world. We are primary concerned with the design and construction of ...
Evaluating the suitability of the human toenail as a biomonitor for manganese status: the one source cohort
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
Numerous studies have demonstrated that the human toenail is a reliable biomonitor for the intake of Se and other elements. The objective of this study was to evaluate the hypothesis that Mn intake is reflected in toenail ...
Technetium and rhenium schiff base complexes for nuclear medicine
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
This dissertation investigates the synthesis of rhenium and technetium Schiff base complexes for potential applications in nuclear medicine. In Chapter 2, a series of mixed ligand Re(III) complexes of the form trans-[Re( ...
The use of pluripotent stem cells as a model for early human placentation
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
is not practicable on both technical and ethical grounds. It is now well established that human embryonic stem cells (ESC) and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) can be driven along the TB lineage by exposing them to bone morphogenetic protein 4 (BMP4...
