    Role of Membrane-Type Matrix Metalloproteinases and Tissue Inhibitor of Metalloproteinase-2 in Neural Crest Cell Migration 

    Cantemir, Veronica (Creighton University, 2005)
    During embryonic development, cardiac neural crest {NC) cells arise from the dorsal portion of the neural tube through an epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition and then migrate into the pharyngeal arches and subsequently ...

    Requirement for the Isotype Specific C-terminus of ß Tubulin for Ciliary Function in Mammals 

    Vent, Julia (Creighton University, 2005-05)
    Microtubules are composed of heterodimers of a and ß tubulin. The main differences in amino acid sequence of the seven ß tubulin isotypes occur at the C- terminus, which has been implicated as a key player in microtubule ...

    Regulation of STAT-1 Phosphorylation by Histamine Through H1 and H2 Receptors: Inverse Agonism and PKA-PKC Interaction in STAT-1 Phosphorylation 

    Sakhalkar, Shilpa Prakash (Creighton University, 2005-05-05)
    Signal transducer and activator of transcription-1 (STAT1) is a latent signal transducer protein which, on phosphorylation, is translocated from the cytoplasm to the nucleus and is subsequently activated. This work was ...

    CD30: A Novel Receptor to Induce Apoptosis in Human Blood Eosinophils 

    Berro, Abdo Ibrahim (Creighton University, 2005-05)
    Eosinophils are one of the major effector cells in asthma, and controlling the number and survival of eosinophils might attenuate the severity of asthma. This could be achieved by inducing eosinophil apoptosis. Apoptosis ...
