MicroRNA expression analysis in the cellulosic biofuel crop switchgrass (panicum virgatum) under abiotic stress
(2012-03-28)Switchgrass has increasingly been recognized as a dedicated biofuel crop for its broad adaptation to marginal lands and high biomass. However, little is known about the basic biology and the regulatory mechanisms of gene ... -
MicroRNA expression profiles during cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L) fiber early development
(2017-03-22)The role of microRNAs (miRNAs) during cotton fiber development remains unclear. Here, a total of 54 miRNAs belonging to 39 families were selected to characterize miRNA regulatory mechanism in eight different fiber development ... -
MicroRNA profiling in the left atrium in patients with non-valvular paroxysmal atrial fibrillation
(2015-08)Background We aimed to identify the miRNA expression profiles in left atrial appendage, with the intention of identifying miRNAs that were significantly associated with non-valvular paroxysmal AF. Methods The RNA ... -
MicroRNA profiling in the left atrium in patients with non-valvular paroxysmal atrial fibrillation
(2015)identifying miRNAs that were significantly associated with non-valvular paroxysmal AF. Methods: The RNA samples were isolated from healthy controls (n = 5) and patients with atrial fibrillation (n = 8). To confirm the ... -
MicroRNA-431 regulates axon regeneration in mature sensory neurons by targeting the Wnt antagonist
(2013-10)MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small, non-coding RNAs that function as key post-transcriptional regulators in neural development, brain function, and neurological diseases. Growing evidence indicates that miRNAs are also important ... -
MicroRNA-431 regulates axon regeneration in mature sensory neurons by targeting the Wnt antagonist Kremen1
(2013-10-24)MicroRNAs are small, non-coding RNAs that function as key post-transcriptional regulators in neural development, brain function and neurological diseases. Growing evidence indicates that microRNAs are also important mediators ... -
Microsatellite analysis of brook trout, Salvelinus fontinalis, in western Pennsylvania
(East Carolina University, 2017-05-05)In western Pennsylvania, the brook trout, Salvelinus fontinalis, has dramatically declined in population due to the environmental stressors of mining, logging, water withdrawal, and acid deposition. Brook trout are game ... -
Microscale structural changes of individual fibrin fibers during fibrinolysis
(2022-01-07)Fibrinolysis is the enzymatic digestion of fibrin, the primary structural component in blood clots. Mechanisms of fibrin fiber digestion during lysis have long been debated and obtaining detailed structural knowledge of ... -
Microvascular Endothelial Dysfunction in Sedentary, Obese Humans Is Mediated by NADPH Oxidase Influence of Exercise Training
(2016)Objective—The objectives of this study were to determine the impact of in vivo reactive oxygen species (ROS) on microvascular endothelial function in obese human subjects and the efficacy of an aerobic exercise intervention ... -
Mid-Summer Dry Spell and Agriculture in Jamaica : Implications for farming practices, techniques and culture
(East Carolina University, 2011)At the beginning of the 21st century, Jamaica stands in a precarious situation which could have serious implications for the island's future. This stress may not have derived from a decrease in precipitation due to climate ... -
Migrating Legacy Software Applications to Cloud Computing Environments : A Software Architect's Approach
(East Carolina University, 2011)Cloud computing has garnered a great deal of interest in the past few years. The availability of on-demand computational power is presumed to provide substantial IT infrastructure cost-savings, partially through the ... -
Migration of Legacy Web Application Using NoSQL Databases
(East Carolina University, 2013)The Migration of the legacy web application to Content Management Systems (CMS) is inevitable because of the overload of managing the content. Traditionally, Content Management Systems are built with RDBMSes and the migration ... -
The migration of the sharpie : economic, environmental, and archaeological aspects
(East Carolina University, 2015)In the late nineteenth century, the United States saw the development of a crucial working vessel type, the sharpie. This thesis will demonstrate that as the sharpie migrated south down the east coast of the United States, ... -
Mile Marker : A Material Investigation in Two Lane Travels
(East Carolina University, 2014)This thesis contemplates American imagery, landscape, memories, identities, and travel in order to introduce the spontaneity of adventure to the viewer. My work attempts to spark a desire for being lost and focuses on the ... -
