Claudin-7 increases chemosensitivity to cisplatin in human NCI-H522 lung cancer cells
Hoggard, John Elliott (East Carolina University, 2010)Lung cancer is a leading cause of cancer death for both men and women worldwide. The 5-year survival rate for lung cancer is only 15%, and it accounts for approximately 1.4 million deaths every year. Recently, it has ... -
Climate Change Alters Trophic Interactions in Coastal Ecosystems
Speights, Cori J. (East Carolina University, 2016-05-04)Understanding the effects of multiple anthropogenic changes on local ecosystems is important for understanding community interactions. Because they lie at the interface between the land and sea coastal ecosystems are often ... -

Coastal Stressor Effects on Sediment and Salt Marsh Cordgrass (Spartina alterniflora) Root-Associated Microbiomes
Gill, Surinder Kaur (East Carolina University, 2023-05-05)Coastal marshes provide ecological benefits such as processing upstream contaminants, protecting coastlines from high energy storm surges, and providing habitat for a multitude of species. Coastal marshes are dominated by ... -
Coevolutionary analysis of Appalachian Xystodesmid millipedes and their symbiotic Mesostigmatid mites
Swafford, Angela Lynn (East Carolina University, 2010)Mites (Acari) form symbiotic relationships with many animal taxa including fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds, mammals, mollusks, and arthropods. They are frequently found living on millipedes, and it has often been ... -
Color Pattern Evolution in the Threespine Stickleback (Gasterosteus aculeatus): Functional, Mechanistic and Synthetic Approaches
Anderson, Christopher Michael (East Carolina University, 2022-07-19)Studies of animal color patterns have provided important insights into the nature of evolution and adaptation. Coloration may be the target of multiple evolutionary processes, including natural selection, intersexual ... -
