Skeletal Muscle Forkhead Box 3A (FOXO3A) Response to Acute Resistance Exercise in Young and Old Men and Women : Relationship to Muscle Glycogen Content and 5'-AMP Activated Protein Kinase (AMPK) Activity
(East Carolina University, 2010)
In addition to suppressing protein synthesis, 5'-AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) stimulates muscle protein degradation through forkhead box transcription factor 3A (FOXO3A), known to promote transcription of mRNAs ...
Effects of Dietary Leucine Supplementation on Muscle Mass and Markers of Protein Degradation in Overloaded Skeletal Muscles of Young Adult and Aged Rats
(East Carolina University, 2011)
The hypertrophic response to overload in fast-twitch skeletal muscle is impaired in aged humans and rats, and upregulation of protein degradation pathways are hypothesized to be a contributing factor. Muscle growth occurs ...

(East Carolina University, 2013)
Gifted learners are engaged in many classroom settings that each offer something different. This study investigated how gifted learners perceive interest, challenge, choice, and enjoyment across three classroom settings: ...
REGULATION OF LIPOLYSIS BY [BETA]-ADRENERGIC ACTIVATION AND EXERCISE IN OBESE AFRICAN-AMERICAN AND CAUCASIAN WOMEN
(East Carolina University, 2012)
African-American women (AAW) are twice as likely to be obese as Caucasian women (CW); however, previous in-vitro studies have shown that AAW have higher densities of beta-adrenergic receptors (B-AR) in the subcutaneous ...

(East Carolina University, 2014)
This dissertation investigated the dynamics of estuarine shorelines in the Albemarle-Pamlico Estuarine System (APES). Shoreline change is influenced by human activities (e.g., shoreline modification), and natural processes ...
Exercise effects on physical activity level, self-perceptions, and quality of life of sedentary children, the interaction of BMI, and the association between moderate to vigorous physical activity and psychological variables
(East Carolina University, 2010)
The purposes of this study were to (a) examine the relationship of physical activity with global self-esteem (GSE), physical self-worth (PSW), physical self-perceptions, and health related quality of life (HRQOL), and to ...
ESTABLISHING LINKAGE BETWEEN GINS COMPLEX SUB-UNIT Sld5 AND CHECKPOINT PROTEIN Chk2 (loki) USING DROSOPHILA MELANOGASTER AS MODEL ORGANISM
(East Carolina University, 2012)
Eukaryotic DNA replication is controlled by a number of proteins that ensures the process takes place accurately. GINS, a hetero-tetrameric protein complex is known to be essential for the initiation and progression of ...
