Title: A NOVEL ANTIBODY FOR THE DETECTION AND TREATMENT OF PANCREATIC DUCTAL ADENOCARCINOMA
Author: Wu, Shuta
Date Created: 2017
Subjects--Topical: Biology, Oncology
Description: Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDA) remains the most aggressive cancer with a 5-year survival rate below 10%. Two of the major contributors to this dismal prognosis are late-stage diagnosis and limited treatment options. Common symptoms of PDA ...

Title: CO-CHAPERONE REGULATION OF THE RIBONUCLOETIDE REDUCTASE COMPLEX
Author: Knighton, Laura
Date Created: 2020
Subjects--Topical: Biology, Biochemistry
Description: The molecular chaperone Hsp70 folds a significant proportion of the proteome and is responsible for the activity and stability of many disease-related proteins, including those in cancer. Substantial effort has been devoted to developing a range o...

Title: Characterizing a New Regulator of the ATR Signaling Pathway
Author: Biller, Megan
Date Created: 2022
Subjects--Topical: Molecular biology, Biology
Description: Cellular responses to DNA damage and replication stress are coordinated by an intricate network of repair pathways known as the DNA damage response (DDR). Central to the DDR is the essential kinase ataxia telangiectasia mutated and Rad3-related (A...

Title: Common Dietary and Environmental Compounds Promote a Leukemic Translocation in Hematopoietic Stem Cells and Differentiated Cells
Author: Vestal, Carol
Date Created: 2016
Subjects--Topical: Molecular biology, Biology, Genetics
Description: Maternal exposure to topoisomerase II (topoII) inhibitors that are biochemically similar to the chemotherapeutic drug etoposide may promote infant acute leukemia. Several studies have shown that common dietary bioflavonoids as well as benzene meta...

Title: EVALUATING BIOFLAVONOID INDUCED DNA DOUBLE-STRAND BREAKS AND CHROMOSOMAL TRANSLOCATIONS
Author: Goodenow, Donna
Date Created: 2020
Subjects--Topical: Biology
Description: Dietary bioflavonoids are a class of chemical compounds found in soy, fruits, vegetables, tea, coffee, wine, and dietary supplements. They are separated into 12 different sub-classes based upon their structure, however only six are dietarily relev...

Subjects--Topical: Biology, Parasitology, Genetics
Description: Over 80% of all malaria deaths occur in children under 5 years of age. Malaria controlstrategies have been progressively shifted to specific populations and/or areas to maximize effectiveness. Malaria is a significant public health problem in Ghan...

Title: Polymer Mediated Delivery of Oligonucleotide and Trans Genes Toward More Efficient and Specific Therapies for Dystrophinopathies and Dystroglycanopathies
Author: Tucker, Jason
Date Created: 2014
Subjects--Topical: Molecular biology, Biology, Neurosciences
Description: Muscular dystrophies are genetic disorders caused by mutations in more than 30 genes, with no cure or effective treatment. Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is caused by frame-shift mutations in the dystrophin gene with little or no functional dys...

Title: Towards The Dry Preservation of Feline Sperm: The Effect Of Dehydration On DNA, Centrosomal Function, And Embryo Development
Author: Patrick, Jennifer
Date Created: 2016
