Equilibration and Exchange of Fluorescently Labeled Molecules in Skeletal Muscle Fibers Studied Using Confocal Microscopy
(East Carolina University, 1995-04)Diffusion of molecules into skinned muscle fibers is often necessary when studying muscle contraction and its regulation. Usually, it is assumed that diffusion of molecules is fast also in the structured system of a muscle ... -
Equitable rationing of highly specialised health care services for children: a perspective from South Africa.
(East Carolina University, 1999-06)The principles of equality and equity, respectively in the Bill of Rights and the white paper on health, provide the moral and legalfoundations forfuture health care for children in South Africa. However, given extreme ... -
Erythropoietin ameliorates chemotherapy-induced toxicity in vivo
(2002-10-17)A method of reducing organ toxicity in a subject being administered a cytotoxic agent comprising concurrently administering with the cytotoxic agent erythropoietin (EPO), the EPO being administered in an amount effective ... -
Essential role of proteasomes in maintaining self-renewal in neural progenitor cells
(2016-01)Protein turnover and homeostasis are regulated by the proteasomal system, which is critical for cell function and viability. Pluripotency of stem cells also relies on normal proteasomal activity that mitigates senescent ... -
Essential Role of the Iron-Regulated Outer Membrane Receptor FauA in Alcaligin Siderophore-Mediated Iron Uptake in Bordetella Species
(East Carolina University, 1999-10)Phenotypic analysis using heterologous host systems localized putative Bordetella pertussis ferric alcaligin transport genes and Fur-binding sequences to a 3.8-kb genetic region downstream from the alcR regulator gene. ... -
Estimation of Laceration Length by Emergency Department Personnel
(2014-11)Introduction Documentation and billing for laceration repair involves a description of wound length. We designed this study to test the hypothesis that emergency department (ED) personnel can accurately estimate wound ... -

Estrogen-dependent enhancement of NO production in the nucleus tractus solitarius contributes to ethanol-induced hypotension in conscious female rats
(East Carolina University, 2009-02)Background- Our previous pharmacological and cellular studies showed that peripheral (cardiac and vascular) NOS-derived NO is implicated in the estrogen-dependent hypotensive action of ethanol in female rats. The objective ... -
Evaluation of the use of Wastewater Based Epidemiology as a Surveillance Tool and the Potential effects of Vaccines and Students Beliefs and Practices in Mitigating the Spread of COVID-19 Among Students at East Carolina University
(East Carolina University, 2022-12-01)Worldwide, newly emerging and re-emerging infectious diseases and pathogens have led to increases in the number and frequency of disease outbreaks. Although these disease outbreaks are not new, increases in outbreaks have ... -
Even with higher prices, eggs still a cheap complete protein.
(2023-03-08)Even though egg prices are high right now, they are still a cost effective choice for a complete protein to integrate into diet. -
Evidence for the presence of A1 adenosine receptors in the aorta of spontaneously hypertensive rats
(East Carolina University, 2001-12)1 Isolated aortic rings (endothelium-intact and -denuded) from spontaneously hypertensive (SHR) and Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats were used in this study to examine the vasoactive e ects of various adenosine analogues. 2 In ... -
