Decelerated early growth in infants of overweight and obese mothers
… of obesity. Patterns of infant weight gain and growth also impact obesity risk; however, the effects of maternal pre-pregnancy BMI on early infant growth and body composition have not previously been well characterized. Objective: To determine the relationship between maternal pre-pregnancy BMI …

Influence of tillage and mulch on the early growth of corn
… effect of tillage and mulch treatments on the early growth of corn plants. The objectives of this research were: (1) to separate and measure the effects of tillage and mulch on early growth of corn, (2) to determine whether observed differences in corn growth represented a response to soil …

Mechanisms for regenerative intervertebral disc healing during early growth in mice
<p>Annulus Fibrosus (AF) defects of intervertebral discs (IVDs) cause painful disability, for example when herniated tissue compresses against adjacent nerves. Discectomy, the current standard of treatment to address herniation, does not repair AF defects and can result in re-herniation and …

Early growth technology analysis : case studies in solar energy and geothermal energy
… we introduce a data-driven approach, called early growth technology analysis, to technology forecasting that utilizes diverse information sources to analyze the evolution of promising new technologies. Our approach is based on bibliometric analysis, consisting of three key steps: extraction …

Effects of Variation in Early Growth Rate of Pigs on Subsequent Growth Performance
… conducted to evaluate the relationship between early and late growth performance and carcass composition of pigs under modern management conditions. Results of the first study indicated pigs with heavier BW (1.8 vs 1.3 kg; P < 0.001) at birth were heavier ( P < 0.001) at weaning and had greater …

Interacting effects of temperature and food on early growth of two plethodontid salamanders
… life history includes patterns such as growth, development, and reproduction. These life history traits are essential to the fundamental understanding of population dynamics. Despite the importance of life history traits, key knowledge gaps still exist, hindering key information on …

EARLY GROWTH RESPONSE 1 (EGR1) AS A TUMOR SUPPRESSOR AND APOPTOSIS INDUCER IN RHABDOMYOSARCOMA
EGR1, one of the immediate-early response genes, plays an important role as a mediator for transmitting extracellular stimuli. EGR1 is down regulated in many cancers. Many studies show that it functions as a tumor suppressor gene in a variety of cancers. EGR1 also acts as an oncogene in number of …

Early Growth Response Protein 2 (EGR2) regulation of B cell differentiation in lupus-prone mice
… reported that the transcription factor Early Growth Response 2 (EGR2), a key regulator of immune cell function, was markedly upregulated in murine and human lupus lymphocytes. Further, we reported that conditional deletion of Egr2-/- in lymphocytes in lupus-prone B6/lpr mice suppressed …

Impact of Gap Size on Environmental Conditions, Survival, and Early Growth of 5 Pacific Northwest Species
… impact of gap size on microclimate and seedling growth and survival after planting, specifically in mixed-species stands is poorly studied. This study examines the influence of gap size on the light environment, soil moisture distribution, and understory vegetation dynamics and in turn, how these …

Evaluation of Methods for Early Growth Stage Identification of Corn Genotypes With Stalk Lodging and Rot Resistance
Several quantitative methods for evaluation of corn (Zea mays L.) stalk quality made at or near anthesis were examined during three years to determine if any were effective in predicting susceptibility to stalk lodging. Stalk measurements were made on eight single-cross hybrids at Urbana, IL while …

The Interaction of Early Growth Response Gene 1 and Myocyte Enhancer Factor 2C in the Murine Brain Cortex
Early growth response gene – 1 (Egr1) encodes a protein widely present in mammalian body, such as connective tissue, cardiac tissue, the liver, and the brain. As a transcription factor (TF), it is involved in processes that take place in the endocrine, digestive, immune, musculo-skeletal and …

Quantitative Trait Loci (QTL) for Salt Tolerance in Soybean and Physiological Response to Salt Stress During Early Growth Stage
… changes induced by salt stress during early growth stage. For the first objective, QTL mapping was performed using an F2:3 population from Jake (tolerant) x Ozark (sensitive). A major QTL was found on chromosome 3 linked to four SNP loci in the same genomic region previously reported, …

Working-class politics in Sheffield, 1900-1920 : A regional study in the origins and early growth of the Labour Party.
The aim of this thesis is to contribute to an understanding of the nature of working class politics in one local context and to understanding of the main areas of ideological struggle endemic at this time. In this sense, the work will enrich both the field of local political history and the broader …

IL-1β Amplification of Nitric Oxide Production and Its Inhibitory Effects on Glucose Induced Early Growth Response-1 Expression in INS-1 Cells
… pancreatic beta cells is not fully understood. Early growth response gene-1 (Egr-1) expression is specifically and transiently up regulated in pancreatic beta cells in response to glucose. We hypothesized that interleukin-1 beta (IL-1▀) induction of nitric oxide alters glucose induced Egr-1 …
