Kim, Jin Hee (2012-02-14)This dissertation investigates the role of limonoids in inflammation to reduce risk of breast cancer and cardiovascular disease. Radical scavenging activity and apoptotic effects of extracts from lemon seeds were investigated ...
-
Mendoza Hernández, María Regina (2016-04-05)RNA silencing is a mechanism used by eukaryotes to defend them self against viruses. When encountering an external or foreign double-stranded RNA (dsRNA), plants activate their machinery to assemble an RNA induced gene ...
-
Zeng, Zizhen (2020-11-18)Internet-of-Things has aroused wide focus to make our society more intelligent and more efficient by employing tremendous connected devices. To ensure its efficiency, battery replacement and maintenance become major ...
-
Liu, Gang (2012-02-14)β-Lactones are a class of structurally unique compounds. The versatile reactivity patterns offered by β-lactones have enable chemists to utilize them as powerful synthetic vehicles in complex molecule synthesis. ...

Xie, Runshi (2022-08-03)Crapemyrtle Bark Scale (Acanthococcus lagerstroemiae; CMBS) is an invasive pest species that causes aesthetic and economic damage to crapemyrtles and poses potential threats to other horticultural crops in the United States. ...
-
Saleem, Sehresh (2014-12-18)The behavioral responses to varying environmental conditions and social interactions are multifaceted and require the coordination of complex neural circuits. Behaviors in animals are continuously affected by varying factors ...
-
Jiang, Xue (2017-05-10)Eukaryotic cilia/flagella are the evolutionary conserved microtubule-based organelles. Projecting away from the cell surface, they perform a variety of sensing, signaling, and motility-based functions. In humans, defective ...
-
Silva, David (2012-12-11)Cilia and flagella are sensory organelles, found in the majority of eukaryotic organisms that play a vital role in the general physiology, health and early development of humans. Intraflagellar transport (IFT) is tasked ...
-
Lai, Qingheng (2021-04-26)Phosphination of the ortho C-H bond of the pyrrole was developed to form 2-(diisopropylphosphino)pyrrole. The protolysis of AlMe3 with 2-(diisopropylphosphino)pyrrole leads to a new tripodal alane/tris(phosphine) ligand ...
-
Krock, Bryan L. (2010-07-14)Vertebrate photoreceptors are highly specialized sensory neurons that utilize a modified cilium known as the outer segment to detect light. Proper trafficking of proteins to the outer segment is essential for photoreceptor ...
-
Tian, Jie (2019-11-19)The sensory organelle primary cilium is involved in sensing and transducing relevant signaling cascades in almost all cells of our body. These ciliary-mediated pathways impact cellular homeostasis and metabolism profoundly. ...

Irigoyen Aranda, Sonia Cristina (2012-10-19)Phosphorous in its inorganic form, orthophosphate (Pi), is found in every compartment of the plant cell and serves as a substrate, product or effector for a wide range of metabolic processes. Several Pi transporters exist ...
-
Richey, Elizabeth (2012-11-07)Intraflagellar transport (IFT), the key mechanism for ciliogenesis, involves large protein particles moving bi-directionally along the entire ciliary length. IFT particles contain two large protein complexes, A and B, which ...
-
Wu, Bin (2022-08-09)Crapemyrtle (Lagerstroemia sp.) is the best-selling flowering tree and provides excellent pollen sources for pollinators in the U.S., especially when other resources are naturally scarce. However, the market’s most ...
-
Kim, Kyungho (2021-12-08)This research investigates virus behavior during coagulation processes including conventional chemical coagulation with Al2(SO4)3 or FeCl3, and electrocoagulation (EC) with sacrificial elemental Al or Fe anodes focusing ...
