Does Minimally Invasive Robotic Surgical Treatment Alter Exercise Tolerance in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation and Mitral Regurgitation at Seven to Eleven Weeks Post-Operative?
(East Carolina University, 2009)
In the current study, we examined if exercise tolerance was going to be reduced in atrial fibrillation and mitral valve regurgitation patients post a minimally invasive surgery seven to eleven weeks when compared to ...
Pleistocene glacial refugia across the Appalachian Mountains and coastal plain in the millipede genus Narceus: Evidence from population genetic, phylogeographic, and paleoclimatic data
(East Carolina University, 2009-01-30)
Background: Species that are widespread throughout historically glaciated and currently nonglaciated areas provide excellent opportunities to investigate the role of Pleistocene climatic change on the distribution of North ...
Impact of Hormone Replacement Therapy on Exercise Training-Induced Improvements in Insulin Action in Sedentary Overweight Adults
(East Carolina University, 2008-07)
Exercise training (ET) and hormone replacement therapy (HRT) are both recognized influences on insulin action, but the influence of HRT on responses to ET has not been examined. In order to determine if HRT use provided ...
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 ...
AMPK regulates basal skeletal muscle capillarization and VEGF expression, but is not necessary for the angiogenic response to exercise
(East Carolina UniversityEast Carolina University, 2008-12-15)
5 -AMP-activated protein kinase(AMPK)is a metabolic fuel sensor that monitors cellular energy charge, while the vasculature is important for maintaining cellular energy homeostasis. Mice with muscle-specific inactive AMPK ...
Analyses of domains and domain fusions in human proto-oncogenes
(East Carolina University, 2009-03-17)
Background: Understanding the constituent domains of oncogenes, their origins and their fusions may shed new light about the initiation and the development of cancers. Results: We have developed a computational pipeline ...
Ancient Genome Duplications Did Not Structure the Human Hox-Bearing Chromosomes
(East Carolina University, 2001-05)
The fact that there are four homeobox (Hox) clusters in most vertebrates but only one in invertebrates is often cited as evidence for the hypothesis that two rounds of genome duplication by polyploidization occurred early ...
