(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1989)Currently, there is a need for applying microdosimetry to radon and its daughters in the human respiratory tract. This need exists because of the inconsistencies of dose values reported in radon lung dosimetry studies. ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2006-04-12)Public Health has long led the fight against unjust health disparities within the United States. More and more health educators have had to rely on the social capital of underserved communities via Community Coalitions. ...

NF-kB Inducing Kinase (NIK) Drives Metabolic Reprogramming of Myeloid Cells in Immunity and Cancer (2023-07-03)Myeloid cells, part of the innate immune system, are front line host defense cells that play critical roles in inflammation and tissue repair. This functional plasticity is driven by metabolic changes that occur during ...

(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1978)ADD ABSTRACT
-
(2019-11-05)Specificity protein transcription factors (Sp1, Sp3 and, Sp4) and members of the orphan nuclear receptor 4A subfamily (NR4A1, NR4A2 and, NR4A3) are highly expressed in most solid tumors and their derived cell lines compared ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1986)This dissertation generalizes the hazard rate in the Hartley-Sielken model from a product form in dose and time to a nonproduct form. Also a latency period (the time from onset of cancer until it is clinically detectable) ...
-
(2023-08-04)NR4A subfamily is a group of orphan nuclear receptors with no known endogenous ligands and includes three members: NR4A1, NR4A2, and NR4A3. NR4A members play important roles in maintaining cellular hemostasis and are ...
-
(2012-07-16)The area of systems biology evolved in an attempt to introduce mathematical systems theory principles in biology. Although we believe that all biological processes are essentially chemical reactions, describing those using ...
-
(2017-12-14)Approximately 30-50% of colorectal cancers contain KRas mutations, which confer resistance to standard therapy. A diet high in long-chain n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 PUFA) is generally considered chemoprotective ...
-
(2013-12-11)Cancer is a major cause of death worldwide. Hence, there is a great need to develop novel therapeutic agents for the prevention and treatment of cancer in addition to conventional therapies. Dietary polyphenols are known ...

(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1983)The primary purpose of this study was to examine the relationships between three psychological factors in oncology patients, and the type of humor they prefer. Locus of control, assertiveness, and reactions to stress were ...
-
(2011-08-08)Tumor cells use actin-based structures capable of degrading the extracellular matrix during the process of invasion and metastasis. Recent studies demonstrate that the adaptor protein Nck-2, an important link between ...
