Title: CORTICAL ACTIVITY OF THE SENSORIMOTOR SYSTEM IN PARTICIPANTS WITH CHRONIC ANKLE INSTABILITY
Author: Burcal, Christopher
Date Created: 2017
Subjects--Topical: Biology, Kinesiology, Neurosciences
Description: Patients with chronic ankle instability (CAI) exhibit a wide variety of sensorimotor deficits. These include impairments in feed-forward sensorimotor control (i.e. motor planning) as well as feed-back sensorimotor control, which pertains to refini...

Title: Detrimental brain inflammation and the role of the interleukin 10 family members
Author: Burmeister, Amanda
Date Created: 2019
Subjects--Topical: Biology
Description: Resident brain cells recognize pathogens and can initiate and/or regulate inflammation. Indeed, we have shown that stimulated glial cells rapidly produce inflammatory mediators, followed by the late production of anti-inflammatory cytokines such a...

Title: Newly described cytosolic pattern recognition receptors mediate inflammatory glial responses to neurotropic viruses
Author: Furr, Samantha
Date Created: 2012
Subjects--Topical: Immunology, Biology
Description: The rapid onset of potentially lethal neuroinflammation is a defining feature of viral encephalitis. Glial cells are ideally positioned to respond to invading pathogens of the central nervous system (CNS) and produce key inflammatory mediators fol...

Title: ROLE OF THE NOVEL DNA SENSORS cGAS, IFI16, AND ZBP1, DURING VIRAL INFECTIONS IN GLIA
Author: Jeffries, Austin
Date Created: 2020
Subjects--Topical: Immunology, Virology, Neurosciences
Description: Viral central nervous system (CNS) infections can lead to life threatening encephalitis and long-term neurological deficits in survivors. Resident CNS cell types, such as astrocytes and microglia, are known to produce key inflammatory and antivira...

Title: Hydrogen Sulfide Modulates Hepatic Oxygen Availability and Microcirculation during Sepsis
Author: Norris, Eric
Date Created: 2012
Subjects--Topical: Biology, Physiology
Description: A mismatch between O_{2_{supply and demand leads to the development of tissue hypoxia which contributes to hepatic dysfunction and injury during sepsis. Previously, we reported that hepatic microcirculatory failure is a major contributor to hypoxia a...}}

Title: Sexual Dimorphism in Sepsis Susceptibility: Effects of Reproductive Hormones on Pattern Recognition Receptor Expression
Author: Rettew, Jennifer
Date Created: 2010
Subjects--Topical: Cytology
Description: Sex-based differences in innate immune responses to bacterial infection are evident in human patients and animal models of disease. Females are less susceptible to the development of bacterial infections and subsequent bacteremia and/or sepsis whi...

Title: THE ROLE OF MUC1 IN REGULATION AND PROGRESSION OF CANCER
Author: Sahraeimanouchehrabadi, Mahnaz
Date Created: 2011
Subjects--Topical: Immunology, Biology, Oncology
Description: MUC1 is a heavily glycosylated transmembrane glycoprotein which is overexpressed and aberrantly glycosylated in most human carcinomas. MUC1 contains a large tandem repeat, a short transmembrane, and a small cytoplasmic tail. Both tandem repeat and...

Title: RANK-L expression in Staphylococcus aureus- induced osteomyelitis, therapeutic intervention using nanotechnology and use of UV-killed bacteria as an osteoconductive coating for biomaterials.
Author: Somayaji, Shankari
Date Created: 2009
Subjects--Topical: Microbiology
Description: Staphylococcus aureus is responsible for approximately 80% of all cases of human osteomyelitis. RANK-L is an essential signal produced by osteoblasts and is required for full osteoclastic differentiation. PGE₂ - induced bone resorption involves bo...

Title: Intracellular pattern recognition receptors underlie inflammatory responses of glial cells to central nervous system pathogens
Author: Sterka, David
Date Created: 2009
Subjects--Topical: Cytology
Description: There is growing appreciation that the resident glial cells of the CNS, in particular microglia and astrocytes, are important participants in the generation of inflammation during brain infection. However, the mechanisms by which these cell types ...

Title: CHIMERIC ANTIGEN RECEPTOR (CAR) T CELL IMMUNOTHERAPY FOR MUCIN 1 (MUC1)-POSITIVE PANCREATIC DUCTAL ADENOCARCINOMA
Author: Yazdanifar, Mahboubeh
Date Created: 2019
Subjects--Topical: Biology
Description: Chimeric antigen receptor engineered (CAR) T cells have shown remarkable success in the treatment of hematologic cancers. However, this efficacy has yet to translate to treatment in solid tumors. Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDA) is a fatal m...
