Multiple Partner Fertility and Access to Social Support
(East Carolina University, 2020-11-18)Social support helps individuals manage problems and make ends meet. However, access to social support varies across groups and by sociodemographic characteristics. Past studies have found that multiple partner fertility ... -
Multiple target hybridizing nucleic acids, their preparation, compositions, formulation, kits and applications
(1999-03-25)Antisense oligonucleotides which bind to two or more RNA targets are disclosed. -
Multiple Translation Factor eIF4G (IFG-1) Isoforms are Required for the Apoptosome-Dependent Activation of Germ Cell Apoptosis
(East Carolina University, 2010)Apoptosis is a naturally occurring process during animal development required for the programmed killing and removal of injured cells. Cellular insult induces a switch in translation that allows for the rapid synthesis ... -
A MULTIVARIATE APPROACH TO ESTABLISH HABITAT CLASSIFICATIONS IN A CORAL REEF ECOSYSTEM USING LANDSAT 7 SATELLITE IMAGERY AT TURNEFFE A TOLL, BELIZE, CENTRAL AMERICA.
(2004-03)The use of multivariate cluster and discriminant function analysis of ground truth data and LANDSAT 7 satellite imagery (23 May 2000) was examined to classify tropical marine habitats at Tumeffe Atoll, Belize. Ground ... -
MuRF1 activity is present in cardiac mitochondria and regulates reactive oxygen species production in vivo
(2014-06)MuRF1 is a previously reported ubiquitin-ligase found in striated muscle that targets troponin I and myosin heavy chain for degradation. While MuRF1 has been reported to interact with mitochondrial substrates in yeast ... -
Murine mesothelin: characterization, expression, and inhibition of tumor growth in a murine model of pancreatic cancer
(2016-03)Background Mesothelin has attracted much interest as a tumor specific antigen; it has been reported to promote tumor development and to be a good target for cancer treatment. Most studies to date have used human mesothelin ... -

(2016)Background: Mesothelin has attracted much interest as a tumor specific antigen; it has been reported to promote tumor development and to be a good target for cancer treatment. Most studies to date have used human mesothelin ... -
Murine Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma Reduces Ikaros Expression and Disrupts T Cell Homeostasis
(2015-01)Background Maintenance of T cell immune homeostasis is critical for adequate anti-tumor immunity. The transcription factor Ikaros is essential for lymphocyte development including T cells. Alterations in Ikaros expression ... -

Muscle cell derived angiopoietin-1 contributes to both myogenesis and angiogenesis in the ischemic environment
(2015-05)Recent strategies to treat peripheral arterial disease (PAD) have focused on stem cell based therapies, which are believed to result in local secretion of vascular growth factors. Little is known, however, about the role ... -
Muscle cramps? Try pickle juice

Muscle Mitochondria in Vascular Disease: A Novel Genetic Target for Limb Salvage
(East Carolina University, 2022-04-19)Peripheral arterial occlusive disease (PAD) is a manifestation of systemic atherosclerosis defined by an occlusion in the peripheral arteries, most commonly those supplying blood to the lower extremities. Chronic limb ... -
Muscle stiffness as a cause of reduced muscle volume - a reliability study
(2014-12)A leading cause of impairment in elderly individuals is sarcopenia, the progressive deterioration of muscle size and strength, which ultimately limits muscle functionality. The loss of muscular strength is directly correlated ... -
Muscle Work Discrepancy during Incline and Decline Running at Three Speeds
(East Carolina University, 2009)Introduction: Previous research has explored muscle function during gait and this work has shown that more positive mechanical muscle work is produced in gait tasks that primarily raise the center of mass (incline gait ... -
Muscle work is biased toward energy generation over dissipation in non-level running
(East Carolina University, 2008-12-05)This study tested the hypothesis that skeletal muscles generate more mechanical energy in gait tasks that raise the center of mass compared to the mechanical energy they dissipate in gait tasks that lower the center of ... -
Muscles do more positive than negative work in human locomotion
(East Carolina University, 2007-10)Muscle work during level walking and ascent and descent ramp and stairway walking was assessed in order to explore the proposition that muscles perform more positive than negative work during these locomotion tasks. Thirty ... -
Musculoskeletal Disorders in Perioperative Personnel and Related Factors
(East Carolina University, 2021-11-29)Background: The nursing profession is physically demanding with increased rates of occupational injuries. Operating room nurses (ORNs) experience rates of musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) between 66.1% to 92.5%. Surgical ...
