BRD7 improves glucose homeostasis independent of IRS proteins
(Bioscientifica, 2023-09-01)Bromodomain-containing protein 7 (BRD7) has emerged as a player in the regulation of glucose homeostasis. Hepatic BRD7 levels are decreased in obese mice, and the reinstatement of hepatic BRD7 in obese mice has been shown ... -
Effect of increased ruminal proprionate on the expression of hepatic gluconeogenic genes in cattle on a finishing ration
(Oklahoma State University, 2022-04-19)The objective of this experiment was to ascertain if supplementing calcium propionate (CaP) in varying amounts would result in the increased expression of genes related to glucose metabolism in the liver. The study utilized ... -
Effects of capsule on surface diffuse reflectance spectroscopy of the subcapsular parenchyma of a solid organ
(SPIE, the international society for optics and photonics, 2018-07-27)We hypothesize that the capsular optical properties and thickness combined affect how accurate the diffuse reflectance on the surface of a capsular solid organ represents that on the subcapsular parenchyma. Monte Carlo ... -
Effects of Methamphetamine on the Expression of Sulfotransferases in Endocrine Glands and the Liver of Rats
(Oklahoma State University, 2010-12-01)My objectives were to: 1) To investigate the effects of METH on protein expression of different SULT isoforms in the adrenal gland, the thyroid gland, and the ovary/testis of rats. 2) To investigate the effects of METH on ... -
Gene expression changes in muscle and liver tissue of growing beef calves with bovine respiratory disease
(2011-12)Scope and Method of Study: -
In vivo assessment of diet-induced rat hepatic steatosis development by percutaneous single-fiber spectroscopy detects scattering spectral changes due to fatty infiltration
(SPIE, the international society for optics and photonics, 2015-11-05)This study explores percutaneous single-fiber spectroscopy (SfS) of rat livers undergoing fatty infiltration. Eight test rats were fed a methionine-choline-deficient (MCD) diet, and four control rats were fed a normal diet. ... -
Perspective review on solid-organ transplant: Needs in point-of-care optical biomarkers
(SPIE, the international society for optics and photonics, 2018-08-29)Solid-organ transplant is one of the most complex areas of modern medicine involving surgery. There are challenging opportunities in solid-organ transplant, specifically regarding the deficiencies in pathology workflow or ... -
Treatment of Wilson's disease with alpha lipoic acid
(Oklahoma State University, 2019-04-27)Wilson's disease is the malfunction of the copper removing protein ATP7B. This rare, genetic disease affects the body by accumulating copper in vital organs such as the liver, brain, and eyes. There are currently two drugs ...
