A system-theoretic approach to global and local regulation in neuron morphologies
… consider activity-dependent degradation as a “local control action” whose role is to assist the neuron in fine-tuning different desirable spatial concentration profiles. We show that, in extreme scenarios, it can promote a level of competition between synapses that has a destabilizing effect on …

Systematic and local regulation of angiogenesis, and other adaptations, in response to hypoxia
… overcome impaired oxygen delivery. Homeostatic regulation mechanisms in the cardiovascular and respiratory systems rapidly act to maintain oxygen supply to sustain normal metabolism; prolonged exposure to a low oxygen tension initiates changes in gene expression. In control of many of these …

Local regulation of increased milk yield due to early lactation increased milking frequency
… daily milking (2X). The increase in yield is locally regulated within the gland; however the mechanism for the increase in yield is unknown. The objective of this study was to demonstrate a difference in milk and component yield, both during the IMF period and throughout the remainder of …

Local Regulation of Milk Synthesis Capacity in the Mammary Gland of Lactating Dairy Cows
… cell heterogeneity as key contributors to the regulation of mammary gland milk synthesis capacity in lactating Holstein cows. The first study evaluated the implementation of IMF with 2x and 4x udder halves at early and mid-lactation for 21 and 20 d on milk yield (MY) and its association with …

The reception of al-mashlahat al-mursalah within local regulation of Probolinggo City num. 2 year 2009 about old age prosperity
… shutting mudhorot. Therefore, this thesis uses a local legal product namely the Local Regulation of Probolinggo City Num. 2 Year 2009 about Old Age Prosperity as primary source of law to be questioned about, of how is the prosperity concept within al-mashlahat al-mursalah received into legislative …

mRNA stability in soma and neurites of cultured neuronal cells
Neurons rely on mRNA localization and local protein synthesis in neurites to regulate synaptic plasticity, axonogenesis and neural signaling. The local regulation of mRNA stability in neurites is poorly understood. To determine mRNA decay rates, we analyzed the subcellular transcriptomes of neural …

Implementing health information exchange with searchable encryption
… sensitive data subject to various federal and local regulation, in addition to company policies, it is imperative to provide privacy and security guarantees, as well as audit trail. In this thesis, we consider the problem of providing the functionality of a HIE composed of a distributed …

Quantification of regional perfusion, shunt fraction and ventilation using positron emission tomography : a nonlinear tracer kinetics model
… of mechanistic hypotheses regarding the local regulation of pulmonary function. We have developed a nonlinear lumped-parameter model to simulate the regional kinetics of the tracer 13N2 as measured by PET following a rapid intravenous injection of a bolus of 13N2 in saline solution. The …

Empirical analyses of local housing markets
This dissertation consists of three essays on the local regulation of housing supply and its influence on house price volatility. I begin by describing the local supply-side dynamics of housing price and stock in each of 47 U.S. metropolitan area housing markets using a unique, market-level panel …

Survey and Analysis of Local Forestry-Related Ordinances in the Northeast, Mid-West, and Western United States
In the United States, federal, state, and local forest policies affect many aspects of the forest industry. Regulations from all levels dictate how resource professionals manage the forest resources of the country. This study examines state and local regulatory relationships with a primary focus on …

Policy recommendations to improve the competitiveness of small scale farmers in Colombia through Information and Communication Technologies
… system is needed. Traditional approaches like local regulation, infrastructure "modernization" and disintermediation, tend to be myopic and are unable to achieve long-term impact. A description of the multiple actors and stakeholders of the small-scale agricultural supply chain is presented, …

Divalent Cation- and Cholesterol-Induced Perturbation in Pip2 Lateral Organization in Model Membranes - Cluster formation, Phase Partitioning, and PiP2-Protein interactions
… in vitro than about the mechanisms of dynamic local regulation of PIP2-protein interactions inside a cell. A major challenge in understanding how PIP2 function in vivo is to define its physical state and lateral organization in cell membranes. In this dissertation, the hypothesis that PIP2 …

Genome regulation by long noncoding RNAs
… disease. Recent studies show that many lncRNAs localize to the nucleus and interact with chromatin regulatory complexes, suggesting that some lncRNAs may represent a crucial missing component in our understanding of genome regulation. To test whether lncRNAs localize to and regulate specific …

Mechanisms Controlling Ductal Morphogenesis in the Ruminant Mammary Gland
… into the histology, endocrine control, and local regulation of prepuberal ruminant mammogenesis was conducted to provide a better understanding of this important developmental period. Histologic features of prepuberal ruminant mammary parenchymal morphogenesis were examined in tissue samples …

Effects of Neurotrophic Factors on Osteoblast Growth and Differentiation
… of neuropeptides. These neuropeptides could act locally on osteoblasts to increase bone formation and/or mineralization. Since calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) and Substance P (SP) are the most abundant neuropeptides present in sensory nerves in bone, the current studies were intended to …

Regulatory dynamics of axillary bud competition in Arabidopsis
… a bud activates depends on the integration of local signals in the bud, as well as systemic signals from across the plant. The importance of systemic regulation is exemplified by the observation that the growth of an axillary branch can inhibit the activation of buds elsewhere on the plant. …

Evaluating the duration of increased milking frequency during early lactation for increased yield through lactation
… used to investigate the possible mechanism of local regulation of milk yield in response to IMF treatment. Milk fatty acid analysis was performed on milk samples obtained from the above experiment. Three different groups of fatty acids were analyzed to detect potential changes in the right …

Physiological responses of human retina and choroid to retinal image defocus: Implications for myopia
… Refractive development is visually guided by local regulation of eye growth. The retina and choroid have been implicated in detecting defocus and relaying information to the sclera to control eye size and thus maintain emmetropia. However, the mechanisms underlying retinal and choroidal …
