CAFFEINE INTAKE AMONG LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS PARTICIPATING IN SHIFT WORK
(East Carolina University, 2013)Objective: To investigate caffeine consumption among law enforcement officers during day shifts (DAY) and night shifts (NIGHT); to assess the types of caffeine-containing products and the frequency of product intake during ... -
Calcium Dependent CAMTA1 in Adult Stem Cell Commitment to a Myocardial Lineage
(2012)The phenotype of somatic cells has recently been found to be reversible. Direct reprogramming of one cell type into another has been achieved with transduction and over expression of exogenous defined transcription factors ... -
Calculating and Coaching School Organizational Health
(East Carolina University, 2018-08-01)To date, most studies of teacher turnover in high-poverty schools have focused on the characteristics of the students and their teachers, rather than on the organizational health of the schools where they teach. The purpose ... -
Calibrating TrueBeam jaws by considering collimator walk out to improve the dose uniformity at abutting field junctions
(2019-01-11)Jaw positions on a linear accelerator are calibrated to have accurate field size values over the range of jaw positions and to have excellent junctions when matching fields. It is sufficient to have field size accuracy on ... -
Calling All Academic Music Library Reference Desks: A Follow-Up Study
(2008-08-08)The East Carolina University Music Library established regularly staffed reference desk service and studied whether the presence of a reference desk increased patron comfort level in seeking assistance even when the ... -
A Calorimetric and Spectroscopic Study of the Interactions Between Model Lipid Membrane Bilayers and Simple Sugars
(East Carolina University, 2015)It is well known that various organisms, such as the tardigrade, naturally use carbohydrates, particularly disaccharides, to help preserve their cell structural and functional integrity during freezing or dehydration. There ... -
Calorimetric and Spectroscopic Tools Used to Study Pb2+ Binding to Human Cardiac Troponin C: A Mini-Review
(East Carolina University, 2022-05-06)Toxic metal exposure is linked to a variety of health issues including cardiovascular disease and diabetes. It is known that toxic metals are capable of mimicking essential metals for binding sites in proteins. It is also ... -
Calpain inhibition rescues troponin T3 fragmentation, increases Cav1.1, and enhances skeletal muscle force in aging sedentary mice
(2016-02-19)Loss of strength in human and animal models of aging can be partially attributed to a well-recognized decrease in muscle mass; however, starting at middle-age, the normalized force (force/ muscle cross-sectional area) in ... -
Calponin interaction with alpha-actinin-actin: evidence for a structural role for calponin.
(East Carolina University, 1999-12)The purpose of this study was to address the paradox of calponin localization with a-actinin and filamin, two proteins with tandem calponin homology (CH) domains, by determining the effect of these proteins on the binding ... -
CaMKII Protein Expression and Phosphorylation in Mouse Skeletal Muscle Following Atrophy and Hypertrophy
(East Carolina University, 2012)The maintenance of skeletal muscle mass is vital for life, and elucidation of the molecular mechanisms that control this process is a critical first step towards the development of pharmaceutical treatments for muscle ... -
