50-kHz-rate 2D imaging of temperature and H2O concentration at the exhaust plane of a J85 engine using hyperspectral tomography
(Optical Society of America, 2013-01-01)This paper describes a novel laser diagnostic and its demonstration in a practical aero-propulsion engine (General Electric J85). The diagnostic technique, named hyperspectral tomography (HT), enables simultaneous 2-dimensional ... -
A 7-week-old male Golden Retriever with extreme leukocytosis: A case report
(Wiley, 2020-09-27)Although neoplasia should be a top concern for extreme leukocytosis in dogs, infectious causes must also be considered to avoid delays in treatment or undue recommendations for humane euthanasia. Blood film review is of ... -
Abrogation of atypical neurogenesis and vascular-derived EphA4 prevents repeated mild TBI-induced learning and memory impairments
(2020-09-21)Brain injury resulting from repeated mild traumatic insult is associated with cognitive dysfunction and other chronic co-morbidities. The current study tested the effects of aberrant neurogenesis in a mouse model of repeated ... -
Accession-Level Differentiation of Urushiol Levels, and Identification of Cardanols in Nascent Emerged Poison Ivy Seedlings
(MDPI, 2019-11-20)Poison ivy (Toxicodendron radicans (L.) Kuntze) shows accession-level differentiation in a variety of morphometric traits, suggesting local adaptation. To investigate whether the presumed defense compound urushiol ... -
Acyl-Homoserine Lactone Recognition and Response Hindering the Quorum-Sensing Regulator EsaR
(Public Library of Science, 2014-09-19)During quorum sensing in the plant pathogen Pantoea stewartii subsp. stewartii, EsaI, an acyl-homoserine lactone (AHL) synthase, and the transcription factor EsaR coordinately control capsular polysaccharide production. ... -
Adaptive radiation along a deeply conserved genetic line of least resistance in Anolis lizards
(Wiley, 2018)On microevolutionary timescales, adaptive evolution depends upon both natural selection and the underlying genetic architecture of traits under selection, which may constrain evolutionary outcomes. Whether such genetic ... -
Adjust your own oxygen mask before helping those around you: an autoethnography of participatory research
(2020-09-03)Background There is a need to unpack the empirical, practical, and personal challenges within participatory approaches advocated to optimize implementation. The unpredictable, chaotic nature of participatory approaches ... -
Adrenocortical Challenge Response and Genomic Analyses in Scottish Terriers With Increased Alkaline Phosphate Activity
(Frontiers, 2018-10-09)Scottish terriers (ST) frequently have increased serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP) of the steroid isoform. Many of these also have high serum concentrations of adrenal sex steroids. The study’s objective was to determine ... -
Advances in Nutrition Science and Integrative Physiology: Insights From Controlled Feeding Studies
(Frontiers, 2019-10-29)Nutrition science is a highly impactful but contentious area of biomedical science. Establishing cause and effect relationships between the nutrients and/or diets we consume and the avoidance of or risk of disease is ... -
Age, but Not Sex, Modulates Foxp3 Expression in the Rat Brain across Development
(Elsevier, 2020)The interconnectivity between brain development and the immune system has become an area of interest for many neuroscientists. However, to date, a limited number of known immune mediators of the peripheral nervous system ... -
Age-related strength loss affects non-stepping balance recovery
(Public Library of Science, 2019-01-18)Aging is associated with a higher risk of falls, and an impaired ability to recover balance after a postural perturbation is an important contributing factor. In turn, this impaired recovery ability likely stems from ... -
Aggregated responses of human mobility to severe winter storms: An empirical study
(PLOS, 2017-12-07)Increasing frequency of extreme winter storms has resulted in costly damages and a disruptive impact on the northeastern United States. It is important to understand human mobility patterns during such storms for disaster ... -
Alexithymia as a Transdiagnostic Precursor to Empathy Abnormalities: The Functional Role of the Insula
(Frontiers, 2017-12-21)Distorted empathic processing has been observed across multiple psychiatric disorders. Simulation theory provides a theoretical framework that proposes a mechanism through which empathy difficulties may arise. Specifically, ... -
Aligned nanofiber topography directs the tenogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells
(MDPI, 2017-01-06)Tendon is commonly injured, heals slowly and poorly, and often suffers re-injury after healing. This is due to failure of tenocytes to effectively remodel tendon after injury to recapitulate normal architecture, resulting ... -
Analysis of a 180-degree U-turn maneuver executed by a hipposiderid bat
(2020-11-03)Bats possess wings comprised of a flexible membrane and a jointed skeletal structure allowing them to execute complex flight maneuvers such as rapid tight turns. The extent of a bat's tight turning capability can be explored ... -
Analysis of salivary fluid and chemosensory functions in patients treated for primary malignant brain tumors
(Springer Heidelberg, 2015-01-01)Objectives The frequency and causes of chemosensory (taste and smell) disorders in cancer patients remain under-reported. This study examined the impact of cancer therapy on taste/ smell functions and salivary constituents ... -
Analysis of the in planta transcriptome expressed by the corn pathogen Pantoea stewartii subsp. stewartii via RNA-Seq
(PeerJ, 2017-04-27)Pantoea stewartii subsp. stewartii is a bacterial phytopathogen that causes Stewart’s wilt disease in corn. It uses quorum sensing to regulate expression of some genes involved in virulence in a cell density-dependent ... -
