School attrition and dropout recovery ameliorated by literacy, engagement, and resilience
… (GED) credential. This process was found to be ameliorated by the positive factors of literacy, engagement, and resilience. These factors were selected because of their importance to the success of the schooling process and their interrelatedness. When these factors were self-reported at low …

An Ameliorated Prediction of the Empennage In-Flight Gust Loads for a General Aviation Aircraft
… a C-172P equipped with sensors to develop an ameliorated prediction of the empennage in-flight gust loads for a general aviation aircraft using Neural Networks. Both the power spectral density and the FAA 'two-second' methods have been applied to separate maneuvers and gusts. Findings were …

RESPIRABLE SIRNA TARGETING AT THE NF-KB PATHWAY PROTECTS AGAINST INFLAMMATORY LUNG DISEASES
… and serum IgE elevation. RPS3 and Rip2 siRNA ameliorated neutrophil infiltration and suppressed CS-induced inflammatory and oxidative damage marker levels. Here we reported that RPS3 and Rip2 siRNA ameliorated lung inflammation via the interruption of NF-kB activity, postulating the …

Disease-modifying effects of human small heat shock proteins in zebrafish models of neurodegeneration
… models. Of all eleven sHSPs, HSPB1, B4 and B5 ameliorated morphological disease phenotypes induced by pan-neuronal expression of mutant A152T tau. HSPB4 and B5 have never been demonstrated to be beneficial in a tauopathy model in vivo, and peptides created from the central domain of these …

Evaluation of modified montmorillonites in poultry diets
… would be bioavailable mineral sources. Cu-MONT ameliorated the growth depressing effects of AF, and the deleterious effects of AF on relative organ weights. Results suggest that Cu-MONT was partially effective in ameliorating the toxic effects of AF in broilers. Copper from Cu-MONT was …

MUNC13 PROTEINS REGULATE STRAIN-DEPENDENT EFFECTS OF ETHANOL-MEDIATED INHIBITION OF SYNAPTIC VESICLE RECYCLING
… of withdrawal related anxiogenesis and can be ameliorated by glutamatergic antagonists. However, it remains unclear how acute exposure to alcohol produces long-term changes in BLA glutamatergic transmission.

The effects of abusive supervision and social support on workplace aggression
… and work retaliation victimization can be ameliorated by organizational support. Regression analysis supports that individuals who receive social support are less likely to display workplace aggression. Results also indicated while organizational support does provide a buffering effect on …

Job characteristics and self-efficacy as predictors of organizational commitment
Employee turnover could be ameliorated by controlling the antecedents of organizational commitment. The purpose of this study is to examine how job characteristics (skill variety, task identity, task significance, autonomy, self-efficacy and overall job characteristics) and self-efficacy may …

HEALTH EXPERIENCES OF TRANSGENDER AND GENDER NONCONFORMING COLLEGE STUDENTS AND THEIR PERCEPTION OF THE EFFECTS OF GROWING MEDIA COVERAGE
… the transition to college offered autonomy which ameliorated some barriers imposed by parental involvement and the opportunity to embrace their identity. Additional themes included conflicts between the benefits and barriers of visibility, issues of intersectionality and problems of erasure that …

Mechanisms of Post-hemorrhagic Hydrocephalus after Germinal Matrix Hemorrhage
… reduced short-term mTOR activation and ameliorated long-term post-hemorrhagic hydrocephalus development, neurocogntive deficits, and extracellular matrix protein proliferation, although PAR-1 inhibition alone did not achieve the same therapeutic benefits. PPARγ stimulation improved …

Characterizing CMT-causing variants in tryptophanyl- tRNA synthetase
… showed mild functional impairment that can be ameliorated by tryptophan supplementation. This work presents the first WARS1 humanized yeast model that was subsequently used to better understand the disease- causing molecular mechanism of WARS1 variants and investigate potential therapeutic …

Studies on transient receptor potential vanilloid subtype 1 (TRPV1)-mediated degeneration of mesencephalic cellsin vivo and in vitro
… This in vivo and in vitro effect was ameliorated by the TRPV1 antagonist capsazepine (CZP) or iodo-resiniferatoxin (I-RTX), suggesting the direct involvement of TRPV1 in neurotoxicity. In cultures, both CAP and anandamide (AEA), an endogenous ligand for both TRPV1 and cannabinoid type …

Airway Inflammatory States in Response to Environmental Pollutants and the Influence of Oxidative Balance
… in vitro. Treatment of cells with anti-oxidants ameliorated the effects of the exogenous pollutant stimulation of mast cells. The in vivo model was more complex, however, vi sulfur dioxide exposure did enhance allergic sensitization in a mixed inflammatory state. Type I (IL-6, IL-12, IFN-γ) and …

UNDERSTANDING THE NEUROVIRULENCE OF ENTEROVIRUS 71
… at entry. Infection of mice with VP2I149K ameliorated morbidity and mortality. Reduced viral titers in the spinal cord and brain were observed.

REGULATORY MECHANISMS OF SLC39A4 (ZIP4) AND SLC39A5 (ZIP5) IN THE ADAPTIVE RESPONSE TO ZINC AVAILABILITY
… Excess zinc did not rescue lethality but ameliorated the heterozygous effects. Zip4 and Zip5 had reciprocal regulation in response to zinc availability. Zip4 expression was regulated by stability of the mRNA and protein: both accumulate during zinc deficiency; ZIP4 was rapidly internalized …

Subalpine Forest Tree Seedling Response to Drought
… in net photosynthesis. While shading partially ameliorated drought effects when precipitation reduction was moderate, complete exclusion caused declines in survivorship in both sun and shade tied to poor carbon balances. We identified a lack of stomatal control as a driver of physiological …

Spingineering : quantum control in the presence of relaxation
… most decoherence processes can be corrected or ameliorated using open loop control with unitary controllers. We examine the different mechanisms of decoherence and relaxation on simple spin systems and discuss when the modes can be corrected. We show experimentally the feasibility of our …

PERFLUOROCHEMICAL AUGMENTED INTRATRACHEAL DELIVERY OF ANTIOXIDANT ENZYMES AND GENES TO ATTENUATE OXIDATIVE STRESS-INDUCED LUNG AND RESPIRATORY MUSCLE ALTERATIONS
… lung injury secondary to prolonged HO may be ameliorated by administration of antioxidant enzymes (AOE), with superoxide dismutases (SOD) having significant protective effects. Because the lung is exposed to the highest O2 concentrations, a logical strategy to reduce HO-induced damage is to …

Contribution of Organic Cation Transporter 2 (OCT2) to Cisplatin-Induced Nephrotoxicity
… side effects; however it has not been completely ameliorated. The studies described herein aim to determine the mechanism in which cisplatin enters the kidney cell from the blood and how it is subsequently secreted into the urine. Organic cation transporter 2 (OCT2) and ABCC2 are highly expressed …
