Raman Characterizations of Red Blood Cells With β-Thalassemia Using Laser Tweezers Raman Spectroscopy
(2018-09-06)This study aimed to study the differences in Raman spectra of red blood cells (RBCs) among patients with β-thalassemia and controls using laser tweezers Raman spectroscopy (LTRS) system.A total of 33 patients with β-thalassemia ... -
Raman spectroscopy: the gateway into tomorrow's virology
(East Carolina University, 2006-06-28)In the molecular world, researchers act as detectives working hard to unravel the mysteries surrounding cells. One of the researchers' greatest tools in this endeavor has been Raman spectroscopy. Raman spectroscopy is a ... -
Raman tweezers provide the fingerprint of cells supporting the late stages of KSHV reactivation
(East Carolina University, 2009-08)Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) has both latent and lytic phases of replication. The molecular switch that triggers a reactivation is still unclear. Cells from S phase of cell cycle provide apt conditions ... -
Random Walks on Finite Fields and Heisenberg Groups
(East Carolina University, 2011)Let H be a finite group and [mu] a probability measure on H. This data determines an invariant random walk on H beginning from the identity element. The probability distribution for the state of the random walk after n ... -
A RANDOMIZED CONTROLLED STUDY OF THE EFFECTIVENESS OF CASUAL VIDEO GAMES IN REDUCING SYMPTOMS OF ANXIETY
(East Carolina University, 2011)Anxiety is a natural reaction to stress. However, when anxiety becomes excessive it can develop into a debilitating disorder. Interventions are needed to ameliorate and prevent the development of anxiety related health ... -
Range expansion of a fouling species indirectly impacts local species interactions
(2017-10-19)We investigated how recent changes in the distribution and abundance of a fouling organism affected the strength of interactions between a commercially important foundation species and a common predator. Increases in the ... -
RAPE CULTURE IN AMERICAN SOCIETY – WHAT FACTORS INFLUENCE CITIZENS OPINIONS TOWARD RAPE VICTIMS?
(East Carolina University, 2016-05-02)In the United States, sexual assault is an often discussed aspect of life on college campuses, particularly with the presentation of the Safe Campus Act of 2015, which prohibits university investigation of reported sexual ... -
A rapid assessment of co-benefits and trade-offs among Sustainable Development Goals
(2017-06-15)Achieving the United Nations’ 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) results in many ecological, social, and economic consequences that are inter-related. Understanding relationships between sustainability goals ... -
Rapid development of Purkinje cell excitability, functional cerebellar circuit, and afferent sensory input to cerebellum in zebrafish
(2014-12-19)The zebrafish has significant advantages for studying the morphological development of the brain. However, little is known about the functional development of the zebrafish brain. We used patch clamp electrophysiology in ... -
Rapid Evolution of Manifold CRISPR Systems for Plant Genome Editing
(2016-11-14)Advanced CRISPR-Cas9 based technologies first validated in mammalian cell systems are quickly being adapted for use in plants. These new technologies increase CRISPR-Cas9’s utility and effectiveness by diversifying ... -
"RAPPACCINI'S DAUGHTER" BY NATHANIEL HAWTHORNE : A VISUAL INTERPRETATION
(East Carolina University, 2010)This document is in support of my thesis work, a series of illustrative images. By allowing readers a closer look into my creative as well as technical processes, I hope to provide a guide to my visual artwork. I will ... -
Ras/Raf/MEK/ERK and PI3K/PTEN/Akt/mTOR Cascade Inhibitors: How Mutations Can Result in Therapy Resistance and How to Overcome Resistance
(2012-10)The Ras/Raf/MEK/ERK and PI3K/PTEN/Akt/mTOR cascades are often activated by genetic alterations in upstream signaling molecules such as receptor tyrosine kinases (RTK). Integral components of these pathways, Ras, B-Raf, ... -
Ras/Raf/MEK/ERK and PI3K/PTEN/Akt/mTOR cascade inhibitors: How mutations can result in therapy resistance and how to overcome resistance
(2012-10-20)The Ras/Raf/MEK/ERK and PI3K/PTEN/Akt/mTOR cascades are often activated by genetic alterations in upstream signaling molecules such as receptor tyrosine kinases (RTK). Targeting these pathways is often complex and can ...
