    • Genetic dissection of glycan functions at the synapse 
      Dani, Neil Chandrakant (2014-11-25)
      Department: Biological Sciences
      ABSTRACT Synapse formation is driven by precisely orchestrated intercellular communication between presynaptic and postsynaptic cells. Signals traverse a complex extracellular environment, where glycans attached to ...
    • Identification of protein markers of drug-induced nephrotoxicity by MALDI MS: in vivo discovery of ubiquitin-t 
      Herring, Kristen (2009-04-09)
      Department: Biochemistry
      This study demonstrated the utility of direct tissue MALDI MS in identifying early markers of antibiotic induced nephrotoxicity. Using a histology directed approach, twelve proteins were identified as having statistically ...
    • Signaling mechanisms associated with the platelet collagen receptors 
      Marjoram, Robin James (2011-02-25)
      Department: Pathology
      Cellular adhesions to the extracellular matrix (ECM) and to neighboring cells are vital interactions within metazoans. This dissertation examines cellular adhesion by utilizing the adhesive interaction between platelets ...
    • The importance of MT1-MMP during renal development 
      Riggins, Karen Shakita (2010-09-01)
      Department: Cancer Biology
      The major goal of this thesis is to investigate the role of MT1-MMP in kidney development. Our results demonstrate that loss of MT1-MMP leads to a renal phenotype characterized by a moderate decrease in ureteric bud branching ...
