Hedrick, Erik Duane (2016-12-13)The orphan nuclear receptor 4A1 (NR4A1) and specificity protein (Sp) transcription factors (TFs) are both overexpressed in the majority of solid tumors. Our laboratory has researched the molecular mechanisms of a novel ...
-
Jin, Zi (2019-11-25)Cryptosporidium parvum is a zoonotic parasitic protist and the causative agent of cryptosporidiosis in humans and animals. The main symptom of cryptosporidiosis is diarrhea, which can be severe and life-threatening in ...
-
Kim, KyoungHyun (Texas A&M University, 2005-11-01)Estrogen Receptor ? (ER?)/Sp1 activation of GC-rich gene promoters in breast cancer cells is dependent, in part, on the activation function 1 (AF1) of ER?. This study investigates contributions of the DNA binding domain ...
-
Wang, Gang (2016-05-09)Variation and variability of gene expression are central concepts in biology. Variation refers to differences among individuals, whereas variability refers to the potential of a population to vary. The advent of next-generation ...

Eltahan, Rana Abbas Khedr (2018-08-09)Cryptosporidium parvum is a water-borne and food-borne apicomplexan pathogen. It is one of the top four diarrheal-causing pathogens in children under the age of five in developing countries, and an opportunistic pathogen ...
-
Exploring the Molecular Interactions Between Host Cells and Cryptosporidium parvum During Invasion Yu, Xue (2018-07-17)Cryptosporidium parvum is a zoonotic protozoan parasite belonging to the Phylum Apicomplexa and a causative agent of mild to severe watery diarrhea in humans and animals. The infection starts with the ingestion of oocysts, ...
-
Zeng, Bin (2009-05-15)From opportunistic protist Cryptosporidium parvum we identified and functionally assayed a fatty acyl-CoA-binding protein (ACBP) gene. The CpACBP1 gene encodes a protein of 268 aa that is three times larger than typical ...
-
Tan, Qiulin (Texas A&M University, 2006-04-12)Oxygen balance is very important and tightly regulated in mammals. Under hypoxia, hypoxia inducible factor 1(HIF-1) dimerizes with hypoxia inducible factor 1± (HIF-) and activates expression of several genes. Using a mammalian ...
-
Shore, Ross Alan (2022-10-10)Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is the leading etiological factor for pneumonia, bronchiolitis, and post-bronchiolitic wheeze in children less than five years old. Besides palivizumab, an RSV prophylactic used for premature ...
-
Guo, Fengguang (2014-07-07)Cryptosporidium parvum infects both humans and animals, and continues to be a significant opportunistic pathogen among AIDS patients and one of the leading diarrheal pathogens in children. Despite decades of research on ...
-
Tress, Ursula (2009-05-15)This study investigated the effect of chronic alcohol exposure on the responses of the maternal hypothalamus-pituitary adrenal axis (HPA-axis) and thyroid hormones throughout gestation using an ovine model. Maternal plasma ...
