Generators of mammalian vestibular surface responses to head motion
(East Carolina University, 2012)The linear vestibular sensory evoked potential (VsEP) is thought to be the compound electrical response of peripheral macular neurons and central neural relays, and as such used to directly assess macular function. The ... -
Generic Medications and Blood Pressure Control in Diabetic Hypertensive Subjects
(2013-03)OBJECTIVE To investigate temporal improvements in blood pressure (BP) control in subjects with diabetes and policy changes regarding generic antihypertensives. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS In a cross-sectional study ... -
Genetic and biochemical analysis of a novel Ambler class A β-Lactamase responsible for cefoxitin resistance in Bacteroides species.
(East Carolina University, 1993-05)A clinical isolate of Bacteroides vulgatus was resistant to tetracycline, clindamycin, ampicillin, cephaloridine, cefoxitin, and other 13-lactam antibiotics except imipenem. 13-Lactam resistance was mediated by a ... -
Genetic and hypoxic effects on germline tumor development in caenorhabditis elegans
(East Carolina University, 2013)The process of differentiation of stem cells to committed, progenitor specific cell types is well studied but the reverse process of the dedifferentiation of these committed cells back to the undifferentiated state still ... -
Genetic and Structural Analysis of the Bacteroides Conjugative Transposon CTn341
(East Carolina University, 2005-04)The genetic structure and functional organization of a Bacteroides conjugative transposon (CTn), CTn341, were determined. CTn341 was originally isolated from a tetracycline-resistant clinical isolate of Bacteroides vulgatus. ... -
Genetic control of cell fate specification in Caenorhabditis elegans germline.
(East Carolina University, 2015)The precise regulation of germ cell fates (sperm or oocyte) lies at the heart of reproduction and fertility. The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans hermaphrodites produce a discrete number of sperm during larval development ... -
Genetic Organization and Iron-Responsive Regulation of the Brucella abortus 2,3-Dihydroxybenzoic Acid Biosynthesis Operon, a Cluster of Genes Required for Wild-Type Virulence in Pregnant Cattle
(East Carolina University, 2003-04)Brucella abortus reportedly produces the monocatechol siderophore 2,3-dihydroxybenzoic acid (2,3-DHBA) in response to iron limitation. Nucleotide sequence analysis of the cloned DHBA biosynthesis locus from virulent B. ... -
Genome scan of human systemic lupus erythematosus: Evidence for linkage on chromosome 1q in African-American pedigrees
(East Carolina University, 1998-12)Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disorder characterized by production of autoantibodies against intracellular antigens including DNA, ribosomal P, Ro (SS-A), La (SS-B), and the spliceosome. Etiology is ... -
Genome-wide profiles of CtBP link metabolism with genome stability and epithelial reprogramming in breast cancer

The genomes of two key bumblebee species with primitive eusocial organization
(2015-04-24)Background The shift from solitary to social behavior is one of the major evolutionary transitions. Primitively eusocial bumblebees are uniquely placed to illuminate the evolution of highly eusocial insect societies. ... -
A germline-specific isoform of eIF4E (IFE-1) is required for efficient translation of stored mRNAs and maturation of both oocytes and sperm
(East Carolina University, 2009-05-15)Fertility and embryonic viability are measures of efficient germ cell growth and development. During oogenesis and spermatogenesis, new proteins are required for both mitotic expansion and differentiation. Qualitative and ... -
Gestational Diabetes Is Characterized by Reduced Mitochondrial Protein Expression and Altered Calcium Signaling Proteins in Skeletal Muscle
(2014)The rising prevalence of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) affects up to 18% of pregnant women with immediate and long-term metabolic consequences for both mother and infant. Abnormal glucose uptake and lipid oxidation ...
