Tissue Salvage in the Non-reperfused Myocardium Mediated by (the absence of the circadian rhythm gene) mPer2 and (the receptor tyrosine kinase) EphrinA1
(East Carolina University, 2010)
Alterations in circadian rhythm have been associated with numerous cardiovascular pathologies. In project 1, we tested the hypothesis that functional mutation of the Per2 circadian clock gene would provide cardioprotection ...
The significance of mirna pathway in peripheral nerve regeneration following sciatic nerve injury.
(East Carolina University, 2012)
microRNAs (miRNAs) are small (21-23 nucleotides) single-stranded RNAs that play important roles in post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression. The binding of miRNA to its specific target mRNAs at 3' UTR causes ...
Influence of carbon nanomaterial exposure on pro-constrictor mechanisms during pregnancy
(East Carolina University, 2013)
Engineered carbon based nanoparticles (CNP) such as fullerenes and multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) are increasingly used in industries and in nanomedicine as a platform for drug delivery. Following environmental/o ...
