Functional imaging of cognition in an old-old population: A case for portable functional near-infrared spectroscopy
(2017-10-12)In this study, functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) was used to record brain activa- tion during cognitive testing in older individuals (88±6yo; N = 19) living in residential care communities. This population, ... -
Functional overload-induced muscle hypertrophy and glucose uptake occurs independent of glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4)
(2017-04)Functional overload induces a number of adaptations in skeletal muscle that are similar to resistance exercise training, including muscle hypertrophy and glucose uptake. While numerous studies have investigated the ... -
Functional Unit of the RNA Polymerase II C-Terminal Domain Lies within Heptapeptide PairsÂ
(East Carolina University, 2004-06)Unlike all other RNA polymerases, the largest subunit (RPB1) of eukaryotic DNA-dependent RNA polymerase II (RNAP II) has a C-terminal domain (CTD) comprising tandemly repeated heptapeptides with the consensus sequence ... -
Functions of claudin-7 in human lung cancer
(East Carolina University, 2012)Lung cancer is the second most common cancer and the most common cause of cancer-related death in both men and women in the United States with a very poor overall 5-year survival rate. Nearly 95% of the lung cancer originates ... -
FUNCTIONS OF CLAUDIN-7 IN THE SELF-RENEWAL OF INTESTINAL EPITHELIUM
(East Carolina University, 8/5/2020)Tight junctions (TJ) are located at the most apical region of the junctional complex and contain many integral membrane proteins. Claudin 7 (Cldn7) is a TJ membrane protein located at the apical TJ and basolateral side of ... -
FUNCTIONS OF G-PROTEIN COUPLED ESTROGEN RECEPTOR (GPER) IN FEMALE ZEBRAFISH REPRODUCTION
(East Carolina University, 2019-11-27)Abstract Steroid hormones such as estrogen depend on receptors like Estrogen Receptor alpha (ERα) and Estrogen Receptor (ERβ) to mediate their slow “genomic” functions, and G-Protein coupled Estrogen Receptor (GPER) to ... -
Functions Required for Extracellular Quinolone Signaling by Pseudomonas aeruginosa
(East Carolina University, 2002-12)A set of 30 mutants exhibiting reduced production of the phenazine poison pyocyanin were isolated following transposon mutagenesis of Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1. The mutants could be subdivided into those with defects in ... -
