Alteration of In Vivo Cellulose Ribbon Assembly by Carboxymethylcellulose and Other Polysaccharides
(East Carolina University, 1982)In vivo cellulose ribbon assembly by the Gram-negative bacterium Acetobacter xylinum can be altered by incubation in carboxymethylcellulose (CMC), a negatively charged water-soluble cellulose derivative, and also by ... -
Diagnostic Foraminifera and Paleocology of the Pungo River Formation, Central Coastal Plain of North Carolina
(1982-12)Benthic foraminiferal assemblages of the Pungo River Formation (middle Miocene) from the central North Carolina Coastal Plain indicate deposition in continental shelf environments. In Beaufort and Pamlico Counties, part ... -
Faculty input in book selection: a comparison of alternative methods.
(East Carolina University, 1987-07)In an era of tight funding, academic medical center libraries need to determine their users' needs in order to provide cost-effective resource collections. Although faculty input is valuable, it is impractical to impose ... -
Long-term effect of insulin on glucose transport and insulin binding in cultured adipocytes from normal and obese humans with and without non-insulin-dependent diabetes.
(East Carolina University, 1987-10)We have tested the hypothesis that in vitro exposure of insulin- resistant adipocytes with insulin results in improved insulin action. A primary culture system of adipocytes from obese subjects with ... -
Insulin-like growth factor I binding in hepatocytes from human liver, human hepatoma, and normal, regenerating, and fetal rat liver.
(East Carolina University, 1988-04)Insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) in human hepatoma cells (HEP-G2) has, in addition to its effect on cell growth, shortterm metabolic effects acting through its own receptor. We have demonstrated that normal ... -
Thoracic neuroblastoma presenting as a cystic hygroma.
(East Carolina University, 1988-10)A case of thoracic neuroblastoma with extension into the supraclavicular fossa is described. By physical examination and ultrasound the patient was thought to have a cystic hygroma with mediastinal extension. A 'cystic' ... -
Thoracolumbar compression fractures presenting with an acute ileus.
(East Carolina University, 1990-09)Corticosteroids are commonly used in the treatment of connective tissue diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus. Although they are usually efficacious, osteoporosis leading to spine compression fractures is not ... -
Canadian Public Library Service to a Multicultural Society: An American Praises Canadian Distinctiveness
(East Carolina University, 1991)First published in Epilogue: Canadian Bulletin for the History of Books, Libraries, and Archives, this article traces the history of Canadian public library service to immigrants and ethnic groups through four periods of ... -
Drug use and suicide ideation and behavior among North Carolina public school students.
(East Carolina University, 1992-06)We used data from 3064 respondents to the 1990 North Carolina Youth Risk Behavior Survey to examine the relationship between adolescent drug use and suicide ideation and behavior. Principal components analysis followed by ... -
Civilian field surgery in the rural trauma setting: a proposal for providing optimal care.
(East Carolina University, 1992-09)Rural trauma presents unique problems for surgical care. While military surgeons are prepared to provide care at or near the scene of battle, civilian literature is devoid of reports for care provided by surgeons at sites ... -
Enzymatic determination of itoic acid, a Bacillus subtilis siderophore, and 2,3-dihydroxybenzoic acid.
(East Carolina University, 1993-07)A specific enzymatic method to determine the amounts of itoic acid, a Bacillus subtilis siderophore, and 2,3-dihydroxybenzoic acid (2,3-DHBA) was devised. A sample was incubated first with hippurate hydrolase andthenwith ... -
Stereotypes of Stutterers and Nonstutterers in Three Rural Communities in Newfoundland
(East Carolina University, 1993-12)The existence of a negative stereotype of stutterers among residents of three Small, rural communities in Newfoundland, Canada was investigated. Members of these communities (n=106) completed a 25 item semantic differential ... -
Transcriptional regulation of muscle fatty acid-binding protein.
(East Carolina University, 1994-03-15)Heart fatty acid-binding protein (H-FABP) is present in a wide variety of tissues but is found in the highest concentration in cardiac and red skeletal muscle. It has been proposed that the expression of H-FABP correlates ... -
Stimulation of glucose uptake by insulin-like growth factor II in human muscle is not mediated by the insulin-like growth factor II/mannose 6-phosphate receptor.
(East Carolina University, 1994-06-15)Although the growth-promoting effects of insulin-like growth factor II (IGF-II) have been intensively studied, the acute actions of this hormone on glucose metabolism have been less well evaluated, especially in skeletal ... -
The impact of a repeated bout of eccentric exercise on muscular strength, muscle soreness and creatine kinase.
(East Carolina University, 1994-12)The purpose of this study was to determine if there were any beneficial or detrimental effects regarding delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS), serum creatine kinase (CK), and maximum concentric strength at 80% of 1-RMconc, ... -
