A comparison of vestibular and auditory phenotypes in inbred mouse strains
(East Carolina University, 2006-05-26)
The purposes of this research were to quantify gravity receptor function in inbred mouse strains and compare vestibular and auditory function for strain- and age-matched animals. Vestibular evoked potentials (VsEPs) were ...
Methods and devices for enhancing fluency in persons who stutter employing visual speech gestures
(East Carolina University, 2006-04-18)
Methods, devices, and computer program products display visual choral speech to a patient who stutters or has a speech impediment or impairment as a visual stimulus for the patient to enhance the fluency of the patient. ...
Human antibodies for immunotherapy development generated via a human B cell hybridoma technology
(East Carolina University, 2006-03-07)
Current strategies for the production of therapeutic mAbs include
the use of mammalian cell systems to recombinantly produce Abs
derived from mice bearing human Ig transgenes, humanization of
rodent Abs, or phage ...
The inhibition of CHO-K1-BH4 cell proliferation and induction of chromosomal aberrations by brevetoxins in vitro
(East Carolina University, 2006-07)
Brevetoxins (PbTxs) are highly potent trans-syn polyether neurotoxins produced during blooms of several species of marine dinoflagellates, most notably Karenia brevis. These neurotoxins act on voltage-sensitive sodium ...
Orchiectomy or androgen receptor blockade attenuates baroreflex-mediated bradycardia in conscious rats
(East Carolina University, 2006-01)
Background: Previous studies have shown that testosterone enhances baroreflex bradycardia. Therefore, conscious unrestrained rats were used to investigate the role of the androgen receptor in the testosterone-mediated ...
Characterization of Bacteroides fragilis Hemolysins and Regulation and Synergistic Interactions of HlyA and HlyB
(East Carolina University, 2006-04)
This study describes the presence of 10 hemolysin orthologs in the genome of the opportunistic human anaerobic pathogen Bacteroides fragilis, which is currently classified as a nonhemolytic bacterium. The hemolysins were ...
Presenilin-1 inhibits delta-catenin-induced cellular branching and promotes delta-catenin processing and turnover
(East Carolina University, 2006-12-29)
Although delta-catenin/neural plakophilin-related armadillo protein (NPRAP) was reported to interact with presenilin-1 (PS-1), the effects of PS-1 on delta-catenin have not been established. In this study, we report that ...
Can Factors Related to Self-regulated Learning and Epistemological Beliefs Predict Learning Achievement in Undergraduate Asynchronous Web-based Courses?
(East Carolina University, 2006-08-30)
This study examined the effects of self-regulated learning (SRL) and epistemological beliefs (EB) on individual learner levels of academic achievement in Web-based learning environments while holding constant the effect ...
