Absence of unsaturated fatty acid synthesis in murine T lymphocytes.
(East Carolina University, 1989-08)Stearic acid is toxic for T lymphocytes in vitro but has little effect on B lymphocytes. To investigate the molecular basis for this difference, purified murine T and B lymphocytes were compared for their abilities to ... -
Abundance and Viability of Striped Bass Eggs Spawned in Roanoke River, North Carolina, in 1988
(East Carolina University, 1989-10)Sampling to estimate production and viability of striped bass eggs was conducted at Pollock’s Ferry on the Roanoke River, North Carolina, from 10 April to 7 June 1988. Samples were taken by towing paired nets at the surface ... -

The effect of fasting on the activation in vivo of the insulin receptor kinase.
(East Carolina University, 1990-02-01)Fasting causes insulin resistance in liver and fat, and increases insulin sensitivity in muscle. We studied the response in vitro and in vivo to insulin of the insulin receptor tyrosine kinase in muscle and liver from 72 ... -
Patterns of Succession in Man-Made and Natural Wetlands
(East Carolina University, 1990-03)The response of estuarine benthos to disturbance was investigated to test the hypotheses that season, sediment, composition, and location significantly affect patterns of recolonization. The study was conducted in two ... -
Roanoke River Water Flow Committee Report for 1988 and 1989
(East Carolina University, 1990-04)A committee of 20 representatives of State and Federal agencies and university scientists was formed in 1988 to gather information on all resources of the lower Roanoke River watershed in North Carolina and to recommend ... -
Benthic Invertebrate Utilization of Man-Made and Natural Wetlands
(East Carolina University, 1990-04)The benthic invertebrate communities of man-made and natural oligohaline wetlands were studied over time with the objectives of: (1) comparing faunal utilization of man-made and natural systems; (2) determining the rate ... -
Growth and Survival of Leiostomus Xanthurus (Spot) in Man-Made and Natural Wetlands
(East Carolina University, 1990-04)Growth and survival of the benthic feeding fish Leiosrotnus xanrhurus (‘spot”) was compared in man-made (Project Area 2) and natural oligohaline subtributaries of the Pamlico River Estuary. Experiments during 1984 defined ... -
Effect of in vitro transcription on cruciform stability.
(East Carolina University, 1990-05-11)We have investigated the effect of in vitro transcription on cruciform stability. Replicative form DNA of 4X174 strain ins6240, containing a 48 bp synthetic palindrome in the J-F intercistronic region, was supercoiled in ... -
Extracellular matrix induction method to produce pancreatic islet tissue
(1990-06-19)A method and composition of regenerating tissue. More specifically, a method for regenerating pancreatic islet tissue having the histological and insulin-containing properties of islets typically found in neonatal or adult ... -
Molecular basis for the immunosuppressive action of stearic acid on T cells.
(East Carolina University, 1990-07)Studies were performed to determine the mechanism by which stearic acid (18: 0) selectively inhibits T-dependent immune responses in vitro. Incubation of mitogen-activated B and T cells with 18:0 resulted in dissimilar ... -
Cancer mortality in Native Americans in North Carolina.
(East Carolina University, 1990-08)his paper describes age-adjusted mortality from malignant neoplasms for Native Americans in North Carolina for 1968-72 and 1978-82. Sex-specific standardized mortality ratios were calculated from death certificate data, ... -
Thoracolumbar compression fractures presenting with an acute ileus.
(East Carolina University, 1990-09)Corticosteroids are commonly used in the treatment of connective tissue diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus. Although they are usually efficacious, osteoporosis leading to spine compression fractures is not ... -
Insulin responsiveness in skeletal muscle is determined by glucose transporter (Glut4) protein level.
(East Carolina University, 1990-09-01)Glucose transport in skeletal muscle is mediated by two distinct transporter isoforms, designated muscle/adipose glucose transporter (Glut4) and erythrocyte/HepG2/brain glucose transporter (Glutl), which differ in both ... -
Transplantation and the Trauma Surgeon
(East Carolina University, 1990-11)The number of satisfactory vascular organs suitable for organ transplantation can be increased appreciably by a close working relationship between traumatologists and transplant surgeons. Benefits will derive from more ... -
Abundance and Viability of Striped Bass Eggs Spawned in Roanoke River, North Carolina, in 1989
(East Carolina University, 1990-11)Sampling to estimate production and viability of striped bass eggs was conducted at Barnhill’s Landing on the Roanoke River, North Carolina, from 15 April to 15 June 1989. Samples were taken by trailing paired nets at the ... -
Community intervention to deter illegal parking in spaces reserved for the physically disabled.
(East Carolina University, 1991)Illegal use of reserved parking spaces represents a major obstacle to the independence and mobility of people with physical disabilities. Using an ABACACA reversal design, the daily rates of illegal parking in four reserved ...
