A 3D virtual atlas of the head anatomy of alligator mississippiensis [abstract]
(2010)
We present the foundation of an interactive, 3D, web-based anatomical atlas of Alligator cranial anatomy, which includes comparative data from MRI, microMRI, CT, and microCT imaging techniques, supplemente with histology ...
AAV5-mediated targeted decorin gene therapy : effective and safe for corneal fibrosis [abstract]
(2010)
Corneal fibrosis is 3rd leading cause of global blindness according to WHO report. At
present, no agents are proven to clinically reduce corneal fibrosis without causing significant side effects. It was hypothesized that ...
Caring for diverse populations : further steps towards increasing cultural humility in the UMHS primary catchment area [abstract]
(2010)
Cultural humility has long been identified as key to effectively working in diverse populations. Recent studies have demonstrated the importance of cultural humility in health care provider education. Over the past several ...
Affects of the inhibition of microRNA regulatory machinery in lymphoma cells [abstract]
(2010)
MicroRNAs influence many processes such as development, cell proliferation and differentiation and cell death. MicroRNAs are intergrated into a complex called RISC with Argonatue proteins to target mRNAs. Recent studies ...
Effects of statins on metabolic adaptations to aerobic exercise training : preliminary findings [abstract]
(2010)
Emerging evidence suggests statins, unlike exercise, may cause deleterious effects on skeletal muscle oxidative capacity and insulin sensitivity. The purpose of this study was to determine if daily statin therapy altered ...
Green tea epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) inhibits cytokine-induced nitric oxide and secretory phospholipase A2-IIA in glial cells [abstract]
(2010)
Glial cells, including astrocytes and microglial cells, are activated in response to injury and neurodegenerative diseases. In culture studies, astrocytes and microglial cells are capable of responding to proinflammatory ...
Evaluation [of] the effectiveness of a cognitive approach for teaching domestic chores to adolescents and adults with autism [abstract]
(2010)
Individuals with autism often have difficulty transitioning into adulthood due decreased executive functioning. One important skill which assists in the transition into adulthood is the ability tocomplete various domestic ...
Development of high throughput tissue analysis laboratory [abstract]
(2010)
Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) is a promising binary radiation therapy for the treatment of cancer and other diseases. In order for this therapy to succeed, non-toxic compounds carrying boron-10 must be successfully ...
Effect of a primed goal of patient safety on patient risk detection [abstract]
(2010)
The ability of intensive care unit (ICU) nurses to detect potential adverse events in critically ill patients is strongly influenced by the environment in which they function. Features of social environments, such as ...
Integrin-linked kinase : a potential player in ovarian cancer metastesis [abstract]
(2010)
Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is the fifth leading cause of overall cancer death among American women. In 2008, 15,520 deaths were directly attributed to EOC, and an additional 21,650 cases were diagnosed. When EOC is ...
Interspecific and ontogenetic variation in great ape pedal phalangeal curvature [abstract]
(2010)
Considerable attention has been devoted to understanding phalangeal curvature in primates, particularly with regard to hominid locomotor evolution. It is received wisdom that phalangeal curvature is an adaptation for ...
Comparison of different strategies in parathyroid scintigraphy imaging [abstract]
(2010)
To retrospectively compare the various scintigraphic methods to discover the most accurate protocol for preoperative localization of single-gland disease, medical records of 710 patients, diagnosed with primary were reviewed. ...
Development of biospecimen sample preparation techniques for molecular imaging using ultra-high resolution mass spectrometry [abstract]
(2010)
Matrix assisted laser desorption ionization (MALDI) imaging is a technique which analyzes and maps the distribution of molecules in two-dimensional biospecimens, such as histological tissue sections. To-date, the classifications ...
Development and function of the mandibular symphysis in mammals [abstract]
(2010)
The mandibular symphysis is the midsagittal articulation between left and right dentaries that is the third jaw joint of the mammalian feeding complex. There is remarkable evolutionary diversity in symphyseal anatomy that ...
Characterization of pericyte invasive responses and pericyte-induced vascular morphogenesis in 3D matrices : distinctions with vascular smooth muscle cells [abstract]
(2010)
During vascular morphogenic events, mural cells are recruited to developing endothelial tubes to aid in stabilization and maturation of the new vessels. There are two known types of mural cells, pericytes and vascular ...
