Title: Development of injectable bioceramic drug delivery system for solid tumor treatment
Author: Haig, James
Date Created: 2017
Subjects--Topical: Materials science, Engineering, Biomedical engineering
Description: According to the national cancer institute "In 2016, an estimated 1,685,210 new cases of cancer will be diagnosed in the United States and 595,690 people will die from the disease" and "The number of people living beyond a cancer diagnosis reached...

Title: Dry Preservation of Germinal Vesicles: Development of a New Formulation to Preserve DNA Integrity Under Adverse Environmental Conditions
Author: Orozco Cabral, Joseph
Date Created: 2022
Subjects--Topical: Biology, Bioengineering
Description: Advances in the cryopreservation of genetic material has revolutionized human reproductive medicine and animal conservation efforts. Despite many successes, oocytes have been more challenging to cryopreserve than sperm. Their large size makes it d...

Title: EFFECT OF BIOCERAMIC FUNCTIONAL GROUPS ON DRUG BINDING AND RELEASE KINETICS
Author: Trujillo, Christopher
Date Created: 2015
Subjects--Topical: Materials science, Engineering, Biomedical engineering
Description: Bioceramics have been studied extensively as drug delivery systems (DDS). Those studies have aimed to tailor the drug binding and release kinetics to successfully treat infections and other diseases. This research suggests that the drug binding an...

Title: EXPERIMENTAL EVOLUTION OF ONCOLYTIC VESICULAR STOMATITIS VIRUSES IN CANCER CELLS
Author: Seegers, Sara
Date Created: 2019
Subjects--Topical: Molecular biology, Virology, Biology
Description: Vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) based oncolytic viruses are promising agents against various cancers. We have shown that pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) cell lines exhibit great diversity in susceptibility and permissibility to VSV. Here,...

Title: Examining the Contribution of the DNA Damage Response to Sepsis Survivor Myelosuppression
Author: Huff, Laura
Date Created: 2020
Subjects--Topical: Immunology, Biology, Pathology
Description: A large portion of patients who survive sepsis, a life-threatening hyperinflammatory response to infection resulting in organ dysfunction, experience a higher risk of mortality than non-septic patients. Innate immune cells of sepsis survivors exhi...

Title: RED FLUORESCENCE IN BOVINE SERUM ALBUMIN – GOLD COMPLEXES
Author: Dixon, Jacob
Date Created: 2019
Subjects--Topical: Optics, Physics
Description: Bovine serum albumin (BSA)-gold (Au) complexes have been studied in great detail due to their unique red fluorescent (λem = 640 nm) properties, since being initially described by Xie et al. (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2009, 131, 888-889) as a Au25 nanoclus...

Title: SINGLE-STEP, REDUCED SHEAR, MICROFLUIDIC EXTRUSION OF BLOOD BRAIN BARRIER
Author: Wetzel, Isaac
Date Created: 2019
Subjects--Topical: Biomedical engineering
Description: Three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting of living structures with cell-laden biomaterials has been achieved in vitro, however, central nervous system tissues have been limited by the low viability printing of cerebral vessels, using conventional printi...

Title: THE ROLE OF TRANSLESION SYNTHESIS POLYMERASES REV1 AND POL η IN DNA DAMAGE RESPONSE
Author: McLeod, Melissa
Date Created: 2016
Subjects--Topical: Molecular biology, Biology, Cytology
Description: Our cells endure continuous challenges from byproducts of endogenous metabolic processes as well as outside sources such as UV light and environmental polltants. The DNA Damage Response (DDR) helps organisms cope with damage and coordinate an appr...
