▼ The Conservation Reserve Program was first established by the Food Security Act of 1985, with the primary purpose of preventing damage to highly erodible soils, made worse by intensified farming practices. Since its inception, the CRP has grown to become the largest federal, private-land retirement program in the United States with an approximately $2 billion annual budget. The Agricultural Act of 2014 mandates a reduction in the enrollment cap from 32 million acres to 24 million acres by 2018. The reduction coupled with the higher than average commodity prices makes the decision of whether or not to reenroll in to the CRP a difficult one for producers with expiring land. Expiring lands will equal almost 2 million acres in the year 2015, and approximately 7.1 million acres over the life of the farm bill. This research will develop a computer based decision aid that incorporates all major aspects of the decision when considering enrollment in the CRP, to be used by landowners and producers. These considerations include eligibility, the Environmental Benefits Index (EBI), the producers bid level, and evaluation of practice options within the CRP and options outside the CRP. The goals of this research are to produce a computer web based decision aid, as described above, with specific emphasis on a few key outputs. These include a probability of acceptance measure, the Net Present Value of all options available to the landowner/manager, and a measure of what that landowner?s/manager?s optimal bid is. The methodology of this study relies on the use of simulation using the excel add-in Simetar. Users of the program are allowed to enter details about the land being considered for CRP enrollment that the decision aid then uses to test scenarios for the land. Five hundred randomized point estimates are generated and compiled as a cumulative distribution function comparison chart, stoplight chart, and several other customized output representations for the user?s consideration. This thesis details a test of an Agriculture and Food Policy Center representative farm. The results, given the input data taken from the farm, suggest that the least risky option for this farm with the highest net returns is to enroll the land in CRP. It is important to note that this is simply a test of one farm and not a recommendation for all producers. Also, the results could be changed given different assumptions about the producer?s goals. The study concludes that including risk in the decision making process regarding CRP enrollment is a critical factor when determining the most financially rewarding result. Including riskiness in the decision making process warrants the use of a decision tool, like the one presented in this thesis.

▼ Members of the genus Mycobacterium respire using two terminal respiratory oxidases: a cytochrome bd-type menaquinol oxidase (encoded by cydABDC) or an aa3-type menaquinol-cytochrome c oxidase. During the transition to hypoxic (< 0.1% air saturation) conditions, cytochrome bd is induced in Mycobacterium smegmatis but the molecular mechanism governing this induction remains unknown. Analysis of the proposed cydABDC operon in M. smegmatis under hypoxic conditions revealed that cydAB and cydDC were not polycistronic. A transposon-mediated random mutagenesis was performed and revealed genes involved in redox homeostasis and defense against oxidase stress including KatG and PruC were required for cydAB operon expression. DNA-binding experiments were performed using a cydA promoter as target DNA and a DNA-binding histone-like protein (Hlp) was identified as protein bound to the cydAB promoter region. A cAMP receptor protein (CRP)-binding site (GTGAN6CCACA) was identified in the regulatory region of the cydAB operon and mutations in this sequence caused a significant reduction in cydA-lacZ expression. The M. smegmatis mc2155 genome has two copies of CRP [Msmeg_0539 (Crp1) and Msmeg_6189 (Crp2)]. Phylogenetic analysis suggested that Crp1 is uniquely present in fast-growing mycobacteria, whilst Crp2 is closely related to CRP from other slow- growing mycobacteria. In addition, only Crp1 but not Crp2 could complement a Δcrp mutant of the Gram-negative bacterium, Pectobacterium atrosepticum. To dissect the physiological role of each Crp protein, transcriptional profiling studies using deletion mutants were conducted. Microarray analysis of the crp1 deletion mutant revealed 239 genes were differentially regulated including those involved in carbon catabolism and energy metabolism. However, a crp2-deletion mutant could not be obtained suggesting that this gene is essential for growth in M. smegmatis. Therefore, crp2 was conditionally expressed and transcriptional profiling studies were performed. Microarray analysis of the crp2 overexpression strain showed 58 genes were differentially regulated including genes from many biological processes. Identification of the CRP promoter consensus in M. smegmatis revealed that both Crp1 and Crp2 recognise the same consensus sequence yet the regulon of Crp1 is distinct from that of Crp2. Taken together, these data demonstrate that each Crp could be activated in response to unique signals. The mechanism of how each Crp is activated remains to be elucidated.

▼ Grassland obligate birds have been in precipitous decline across North America for several decades. One of the principal mechanisms for stemming these declines is farmland conservation programs, among which the Conservation Reserve Program has been particularly successful in delivering millions of acres of new grasslands. Evidence of the efficacy of such programs for grassland bird conservation in the eastern United States is lacking. In 2000 the Conservation Reserve Enhancement Program (CREP) was established in Pennsylvania with the provision of grassland wildlife habitat one of its key aims. I show that within Pennsylvania, grassland obligates species showed sustained declines from the 1960s onwards. I use several bird survey data sources to assess the population-scale effects of CREP on a range of species within the state. A bird monitoring program was established in 2001 to assess farmland and grassland bird population trends in southern Pennsylvania. Trends for the period 2001 to 2005 provide scant evidence of population-scale changes in bird numbers; most grassland obligates continued to decline, but declines for some species were slower in areas with high rates of CREP enrollment. Eastern meadowlark was the only songbird for which I could demonstrate a strong response to higher rates of CREP enrollment, results for grasshopper sparrow and bobolink suggest that these species may have benefited, but the results are more equivocal. My analysis was hampered by the short time-series – fields were still being planted when the monitoring was curtailed. Further, the study coincided with the emergence of West Nile virus (WNV) in Pennsylvania, which further complicated the analysis. I show that WNV caused significant decreases in seven common bird species, notably corvids and cavity nesting songbirds. A survey of winter raptor numbers initiated in 2001 provided an ideal opportunity to test the hypothesis that CREP also provides habitat for wintering birds of prey. I show that at broad spatial scales there were increases in raptor numbers in areas where there was the most CREP, the results being particularly pronounced for northern harrier. Although these relationships are merely correlational, they do suggest that the new habitat provided by CREP has been sufficient to cause a significant shift in the wintering populations of this species. I use point count data from the 2nd Pennsylvania Breeding Bird Atlas to estimate grassland songbird populations and assess the relative importance of farmland for these species. I show that although densities are often low, farmland supports the majority of the populations of most grassland songbirds in Pennsylvania. I suggest that management, enrollment and re-enrollment of CREP fields could be better targeted. Large CREP fields in south central Pennsylvania should be managed specifically for eastern meadowlarks and grasshopper sparrows, while in the west of the state; further research could allow a targeting of CREP toward populations of the threatened Henslow’s sparrow. Small…

▼ For five generations, Lauver Family Farms has been founded upon faith, family, and farming near Rockwell City, IA. It is these core principles and beliefs that drive everyday actions through conservation minded decisions, community involvement, and a passion for the land. Presently, the farm is operated by Grandfather Don Lauver, Father Kevin Lauver, and sons Andrew and Jacob Lauver. The Lauver Family Farm was originally purchased in 1942 by Joseph Gordon, who at his peak held 700 acres in his name. In 1945 Glen and Viola Lauver purchased what is now Lauver Family Farms, located on the Des Moines Lobe land region of Iowa. The Des Moines Lobe is a glacial lobe encompassing rich, heavy soils with high organic matter, requiring dredge ditches and tiling in many areas. Through a commitment to conservation, corn and soybean acres are rotated annually. With regard to corn cultivation and planting practices, soybean stubble is field cultivated once, followed by planting. On soybean ground, the corn stalks are disk ripped, and then field cultivated twice before planting soybeans. The goal is to minimize trips through the field by exhibiting these conservation tillage practices. If land has much slope or erosion potential, then it is only disked and then planted. Currently, the farm is comprised of 400 acres of row crops and 50 acres of wetland, 30 acres on the Home Farm and 20 acres on the Obye Farm, enrolled in the Conservation Reserve Program in 2002. Kevin and Don Lauver, the primary decision makers, requested an analysis of the environmental and economic impact of the Conservation Reserve Program on the farm. By taking acres out of production for at least 10 to 15 years that perennially drown due to often wet soil conditions, they will be able to utilize the Conservation Reserve Program as a risk management tool. Now, Lauver Family Farms is faced with a decision to determine if a 10 or 15 year enrollment in the Conservation Reserve Program has the greatest economic and environmental return, since the current enrollment expires in 2016. Procedures and methods were established to meet the purpose of this thesis to determine which option was the most profitable long-term for the operation. The purpose includes evaluating the sources of data relevant to Lauver Family Farms decision by utilizing decision tools to make a collective decision on the future of the farmland and opportunity costs analyzed. Lauver Family Farms’ objective for this project was to determine how the Conservation Reserve Program provides a return on the investment of the decision to re-enroll, or even enroll more acres in the program.

Background: The role of CRP and IL-6 as a marker in the prognosis of asymptomatic TAA patients has not been well established. Therefore we evaluated a possible association between serum CRP and IL-6 and aneurysm dimension in this group of patients. Methods and Results: Serum CRP and IL-6 were determined and aneurismal size was measured in 26 patients with TAA. Mean (SD) CRP and IL-6 were 0,58 (1,07) mg/dl and 7,47(17,78) pg/ml respectively. Serum CRP and IL-6 did not correlate with aneurismal dimension. Moreover there was significant correlation between values of the ratio above 0,8 and aneurismal dimension (r=0,78485). Secondly there is also significant association smoking, age group of 69-80 years old and dyslipidemia and aneurysm dimension (p=0,0023, p=0,0607 and p=0,0704 respectively). Conclusions: This report shows that values of the ratio CRP/IL-6 above 0,8 are associated with aneurismal dimensions. The clinical significance of this finding is early to be established. Further studies with larger groups of patients with longer follow-up are needed to evaluate the usefulness of the serum CRP and IL-6 as markers of the disease progression.

Σκοπός: Ο ρόλος των CRP και IL-6 ορού στην ανευρυσματική νόσο της θωρακικής αορτής σε ασυμπτωματικούς ασθενείς ως δεικτών πρόγνωσης και εξέλιξης της νόσου δεν ερευνάται επαρκώς μέσα από την παγκόσμια βιβλιογραφία. Μέσα από αυτή την εργασία προσπαθούμε να αξιολογήσουμε μία πιθανή συσχέτιση ανάμεσα στις CRP και IL-6 ορού και το μέγεθος του ανευρύσματος σε αυτή την ομάδα ασθενών. Μέθοδος και Αποτελέσματα: Σε 26 ασυμπτωματικούς ασθενείς με ανεύρυσμα της θωρακικής αορτής, προσδιορίστηκαν οι τιμές των CRP και IL-6 ορού και μετρήθηκε και το μέγεθος του ανευρύσματος. Οι μέσες τιμές (τυπική απόκλιση) των CRP και IL-6 ορού είναι 0,58 (1,07) mg/dl και 7,47 (17.78) pg/ml αντίστοιχα. Από τα αποτελέσματα φαίνεται ότι δεν προκύπτει κανένας συσχετισμός ανάμεσα στις τιμές των CRP και IL-6 ορού και το μέγεθος του ανευρύσματος. Σημαντικό εύρημα είναι ότι σε τιμές του λόγου CRP/IL-6 άνω του 0.8 προκύπτει σαφής και δυνατός γραμμικός συσχετισμός (r=0,78485) ανάμεσα στις τιμές αυτές και το μέγεθος του ανευρύσματος. Επιπλέον προκύπτει σημαντική σχέση ανάμεσα στο κάπνισμα, την ηλικιακή κατηγορία 69-80 έτη και την υπερλιπιδαιμία και το μέγεθος του ανευρύσματος (p= 0.0023, p=0,0607 και p=0,0704 αντίστοιχα). Συμπέρασμα: Σ’ αυτή την εργασία, οι τιμές του λόγου CRP/IL-6 που είναι άνω του 0,8 σχετίζονται με το μέγεθος του ανευρύσματος. Η κλινική σημασία αυτού του ευρήματος είναι νωρίς για να καθοριστεί. Περισσότερες μελέτες χρειάζονται να γίνουν με μεγαλύτερα δείγματα πληθυσμού και με μεγαλύτερο χρόνο παρακολούθησης για να εκτιμηθεί επαρκώς η χρησιμότητα των CRP και IL-6 ορού ως δεικτών πρόγνωσης και εξέλιξης της ανευρυσματικής νόσου.

▼ This project is concerned with method development in mass spectrometry (MS)-based proteomics in order to find putative biomarkers for early pregnancy ofdomesticated dogs. It is of importance for dog breeders to know whether the dogsbecome pregnant post-mating. Unlike humans, dogs are not known to possess aspecific hormone that indicates fetal development; therefore other biomarkers mustbe investigated. The approach of choice in this project was to look at proteins throughMS-based proteomics. For this purpose, serum samples from 11 pregnant dogs (case,different breeds) and 7 non-pregnant dogs (control, all beagle dogs) were sampledbefore-hand at the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences. Each dog wassampled Day 1, Day 8, Day 15, Day 22 and Day 29 after optimal mating. Twodifferent proteomics approaches were conducted: Bottom-up (“Shotgun”) proteomicsand targeted proteomics (“targeted analysis”). In this study, Label-free Quantification(LFQ) was employed, which is a relative quantitative technique. The massspectrometer of choice was the Quadrupole-Orbitrap QExactive plus massspectrometer coupled to a nano-Ultra Performance Liquid Chromatography (UPLC).Method optimization was done with respect to concentration of samples prior to MSanalysis, as well as different LC-gradients. From shotgun screening experiments, itwas possible to identify 252 proteins. Ultimately, 9 proteins were investigated usingtargeted final analysis: CRP, SERPINC1, CP, PROS1, SERPING1, A2M, AGP,SERPINA1 and HP. For targeted final analysis, 21 peptides were considered.Calibration curves were constructed using 8 of the 21 targeted peptides; 1 peptide perprotein, except for HP which had 2 peptides per protein. The SERPINA1 and CPproteins had no appropriate peptides for targeted final analysis and were thusexcluded. It was confirmed that CRP was up-regulated in case dogs compared tocontrol dogs. The other investigatedproteins showed no significant signs of regulation. In order to improve the results; itwould be desirable to include more dogs in the study which would benefit thestatistics of protein regulation. However, the use of isotopic labeled standards andemployment of a Parallel Reaction Monitoring (PRM) method should be prioritizedfor obtaining absolute quantitative data.

Les bactéries sont en permanence confrontées à des changements d'environnements. La régulation transcriptionnelle joue alors un rôle majeur dans l'adaptation des bactéries. En particulier, la bactérie phytopathogène D. dadantii s'est récemment adaptée à l'hôte végétal. Elle produit en particulier des pectate lyases (Pel) qui dégradent la pectine, ciment des parois végétales, et jouent un rôle majeur dans le développement de la maladie. Les gènes pelD et pelE, malgré la forte divergence dans leur expression, sont issus d'un transfert horizontal suivi d'une duplication récente. La question de l'intégration de ces gènes avec les régulations préexistantes s'est alors posée.Dans un premier temps, les mécanismes moléculaires détaillés de la régulation de pelD ont été étudiés. Il a été montré que cette régulation s'appuie sur un promoteur divergent de forte affinité pour l'ARN polymérase mais de faible efficacité pour la transcription et sur un arrangement stratégique de quatre sites de fixation de répresseur FIS et deux sites de l'activateur CRP. Tous ces éléments interagissent entre eux pour produire une régulation fine de l'expression de pelD. L'origine de la divergence régulatrice entre les paralogues pelD et pelE a par la suite été explorée. De manière surprenante, la divergence entre ces deux gènes et leur sélection s'appuie presque exclusivement sur un décalage de la position du promoteur de pelE (« TSS turnover ») qui l'a transformé en initiateur de la dégradation de la pectine. Ce mécanisme très fréquent chez les eucaryotes pluricellulaires (homme, drosophile, souris…) n'avait jamais encore été décrit chez les bactéries.A travers l'étude des promoteurs pelD et pelE de D. dadantii, de nouveaux mécanismes renforçant l'importance de la régulation transcriptionnelle dans les processus adaptatifs ont ainsi été découverts

Bacteria face frequent environmental changes. Transcriptional regulation plays a major role in the adaptation to these changes. In particular, the phytopathogen bacteria Dickeya have recently adapted to vegetal hosts. They produce Pecate lyases (Pel), among others, to degrade pectin in plant cell walls, which is necessary for disease development. The pelD and pelE genes, despite the strong divergence in their expression, originate from a horizontal gene transfer followed by a recent duplication. This raises the question of their integration into the preexisting regulatory networks.Detailed molecular mechanisms of the transcriptional regulation of pelD were studied first. It was shown that this regulation relies on a high-affinity but low transcription efficiency divergent promoter and a strategic arrangement of four FIS repressor binding sites and two CRP activator binding sites. These elements interact together to fine-tune the expression of pelD. Next, the origin of the regulatory divergence between the paralogous genes pelD and pelE was explored. Surprisingly, their divergence and selection relies mostly on a TSS turnover which happened on the pelE regulatory region and transformed pelE into an…

▼ Zerebrale Erkrankungen, wie Schädelhirntrauma (SHT) und Subarachnoidalblutung (SAB) sind mit einer hohen Morbidität und Mortalität vergesellschaftet und stellen eine ernsthafte medizinische und ökonomische Herausforderung dar. Grundlage für die Entwicklung neuer effektiver Therapieansätze ist das Verständnis der pathophysiologischen Mechanismen dieser Krankheiten. Das Entstehen eines vasogenen Hirnödems ist eine schwere Komplikation nach SHT und SAB und beruht u.a. auf einem Öffnen der Bluthirnschranke (BHS). Ein möglicher zu Grunde liegender Mechanismus könnte die Aktivierung der Myosin-leichte-Kette-Kinase (MLCK) sein, was man therapeutisch unterbinden könnte.rnIn der vorliegenden Studie wurde in zwei unterschiedlichen experimentellen, zerebralen Schadensmodellen der Einfluss des kontraktilen Apparates auf die BHS Störung untersucht. In dem Schadensmodell des SHT sind die Hauptergebnisse: 1.) die Myosin-leichte-Kette-Kinase (MLCK) wird durch das induzierte Schädelhirntrauma hochreguliert. 2.) eine pharmakologische MLCK Inhibition stabilisiert die BHS, senkt den ICP und das Hirnödem nach experimentellen SHT. 3.) die MLCK Inhibition führte nicht zu einer Verbesserung des Hirnschadens, der neurologischen Funktion oder der zerebralen Inflammation 24 Stunden nach SHT, obwohl angenommen wird, dass die Entstehung eines Hirnödems den sekundären Hirnschaden vergrößert. In einer weitern Studie wurde untersucht, durch welchen Signalweg dieser zugrunde liegende Mechanismus aktiviert wird. In einem in-vitro BHS Model konnte gezeigt werden, dass C-reaktives Protein (CRP) über die Bindung an Fcγ-Rezeptoren den kontraktilen Apparat aktiviert und somit zu einem Öffnen der BHS führt. Obwohl der CRP Plasmaspiegel nach experimentellen SHT ansteigt, kommt es nicht zu einer Verringerungrndes Hirnwassergehaltes in FcγR-/- Mäusen. Die Entstehung des vasogenen Hirnödems wird im murinen CCI Model somit nicht über den Fcγ-Rezeptor vermittelt. Die in-vitro gezeigte Fcγ vermittelte Öffnung der BHS konnte in-vivo in dieser Studie nicht reproduziert werden. Mit der vorliegenden Studie kann nicht ausgeschlossen werden, dass CRP über einen Fcγ unabhängigen Mechanismus eine Öffnung der BHS vermittelt. Jedoch deuten die Daten daraufhin, das CRP im murinen CCI Model eine untergeordnete Rolle spielt.

L’étude des marqueurs biologiques dans la broncho-pneumopathie chronique obstructive (BPCO) et l'asthme, deux maladies respiratoires chroniques affectant des millions de personnes dans le monde, pourrait améliorer leur diagnostic, leur traitement et leur prévention.Cette thèse comprend deux parties. La première visait à évaluer l'association entre un marqueur spécifique des poumons, la protéine surfactant D (SP-D) sérique, et la BPCO, et à trouver un seuil de SP-D capable de discriminer les patients BPCO des témoins. Elle a été réalisée dans le cadre d’une étude cas-témoin au Liban incluant des patients BPCO (n=90), des asthmatiques (n=124) et des témoins (n=180). La deuxième partie visait à évaluer les associations chez les adultes des marqueurs de l’inflammation systémique (protéine C-réactive ultra-sensible, hs-CRP (n=252), et des cytokines (n=283)) et des marqueurs de dommages dus au stress oxydant (8-isoprostanes 8-IsoPs (n=258) du condensat de l’air exhalé) avec les phénotypes de l’asthme.Elle a été réalisée dans le cadre de l'étude épidémiologique longitudinale Française des facteurs génétiques et environnementaux de l'asthme (EGEA).Les résultats ont montré que les niveaux de SP-D sériques étaient associés positivement avec la BPCO et des seuils des niveaux de SP-D chez ces patients ont été identifiés avec d'excellentes valeurs discriminantes. Dans EGEA, aucune association n'a été trouvée entre les niveaux de hs-CRP sériques et le contrôle de l’asthme. Des profils de cytokines sériques (identifiés par analyse en composante principale) avec des niveaux élevés d’interleukine(IL)-1Ra et d’IL-10 ont été associés avec moins de crises d'asthme et un risque plus faible d'un mauvais contrôle de l'asthme sept ans plus tard. Les résultats des analyses préliminaires sur les associations entre les niveaux de 8-IsoPs et les phénotypes de l'asthme sont également présentés.Globalement, ces résultats ont montré l'utilité d'étudier les marqueurs biologiques en lien avec la BPCO et l'asthme.

Studying the biological markers in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and asthma, two chronic respiratory diseases affecting millions of individuals around the world, could improve their diagnosis, their treatment and their prevention.This thesis includes two parts. The first aimed to assess the association between a lung-specific biomarker, serum Surfactant Protein D (SP-D), and COPD, and to find cut-off points able to discriminate COPD patients from controls using SP-D levels. It was performed in a case-control study in Lebanon including COPD (n=90) and asthma patients (n=124) and controls (n=180). The second part aimed to assess the cross-sectional and longitudinal associations in adults for systemic inflammatory biomarkers (high sensitivity C reactive protein hs-CRP (n=252) and cytokines (n=283) as well as biomarkers of damage due to oxidative stress (8-Isoprostanes 8-IsoPs (n=258) from the exhaled breath condensate) and asthma outcomes.It was performed in the French longitudinal epidemiological study on the genetics and…

▼ Canine Parvovirus remains a leading cause of enteritis in dogs in South Africa and many other countries despite the wide availability of effective vaccines. The virus does not affect all dogs equally and the course of the disease depends on the age, immune status and breed of the puppies as well as the viral dose, route of exposure and the virulence of the strain. Although aggressive supportive treatment can be successful, the treatment and convalescent periods may be prolonged and consequently expensive and the mortality rate relatively high, causing many clients to forego treatment and elect for euthanasia of their pet. Acute phase proteins (APP) are proteins that change in concentration by at least 25% in animals subjected to external or internal inflammatory challenges, such as infection, inflammation or surgical trauma. Increased concentrations are associated with poor outcome in certain diseases. C-reactive protein (CRP) is the most sensitive APP in dogs. Its normal physiological concentration is low but increases rapidly with inflammation or tissue destruction. Due to the fact that CRP has a relatively short half life in serum (6-8 hours) and a high response in diseased animals, it can be used as a valid measure of a systemic response to an initiating stimulus at the time of blood sampling. By taking serial measurements, objective information about the extent of the ongoing lesions in the patient can be obtained and therefore may be used as a prognostic indicator. The objective of this prospective observational study was to evaluate the association of serum CRP concentrations in puppies suffering from canine parvoviral enteritis with morbidity and mortality, and to determine the usefulness of CRP to predict duration of hospitalisation time. Seventy-nine client owned puppies naturally infected with canine parvovirus were included. Parvovirus infection was diagnosed on electron microscopic examination of faeces from the puppies. CRP was measured using an automated human C-Reactive Protein Turbidimetric Immunoassay (TIA), which has been validated for use in dogs. Serum CRP measurements were performed at admission, twice daily for the first 48 hours, then once daily until death or discharge. There was a positive association between odds of mortality and CRP concentration on admission, as well as 12 and 24 hours after admission (P=0.04,P=0.005 and P=0.003, respectively). Survival time was negatively associated with CRP concentration at 12 and 24 hours after admission (P=0.002and P=0.001, respectively). Among the survivors, length of hospitalisation was positively associated with CRP concentration at 12, 24 and 36 hours after admission (P=0.012, P=0.001 and P=0.002, respectively). Utility for CRP concentration to correctly differentiate between survivors and non-survivors at 24 hours after admission had a sensitivity and specificity of 78.7% and 86.7% respectively. Although serum CRP concentration is associated with outcome in puppies infected with canine parvovirus, when used alone it did not prove to be a good… Advisors/Committee Members: Goddard, Amelia (advisor), Van Schoor, Mirinda (advisor).

▼ Acute phase proteins (APP) are ideal biomarkers for inflammation due to their stability, relative ease of assay and apparent relation between their concentration and the extent of the insult to tissue. C-reactive protein (CRP) is a positive major APP in dogs and can be used as a predictive marker for risk of disease and to monitor the response to treatment. Increased concentrations in certain diseases are associated with poor outcome. This cross-sectional, observational study of 75 dogs naturally infected with Babesia rossi, a cause of virulent canine babesiosis, was designed to examine the association of CRP concentration at admission and the magnitude of CRP change 24 hours after admission with outcome. Dogs were excluded if there was evidence of concurrent inflammatory diseases at the time of admission, infection with subtypes other than B. rossi, concurrent Ehrlichia canis infections or euthanasia for reasons other than poor prognosis. Diagnosis was confirmed by polymerase chain reaction and reverse line blot. CRP concentrations were determined by an automated human CRP Turbidometric Immunoassay (TIA), previously validated for use in dogs (Bayer CRP TIA, Newbury, UK), on serum samples collected by jugular venipuncture on admission, prior to any therapy, and thereafter daily until discharge or death. There was no significant difference in admission CRP concentration between survivors (n = 57; median = 97.4 mg/l; mean ± SD = 107.5 ± 49.5), and non-survivors (n = 11; median = 101.4 mg/l; mean ± SD = 122.1 ± 64.6) (p = 0.39). After elimination of non-significant predictors, a multiple exact logistic regression model for predicting mortality contained glucose and CRP. Mortality was associated with decreased glucose levels (p = 0.0002) and increased CRP levels (p = 0.045) on admission. Multiple regression analysis failed to show a significant relationship between admission CRP concentration and number of days of hospitalization in the survivors, adjusting for age and sex (p = 0.65). No significance was found in the relationship between the magnitude of change in CRP concentration 24 hours after admission, and the number of days of hospitalization in survivors, (p = 0.34). Using an admission CRP concentration cut-off of 60 mg/l, survival proportions between the two groups were no different (p = 0.34) and when applied to the group of dogs that survived, it was not associated with length of hospitalization (p = 0.25). In corroboration with previous reports glucose was identified as a major prognostic marker for mortality, but additionally the pro-inflammatory marker CRP was identified as a significant co-prognosticator.

▼ Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) is currently the most common cause of death in the United States. Some dietary factors contribute importantly to ASCVD and other factors can reduce risk of ASCVD. Oleic acid is a monounsaturated fatty acid (MUFA). Dietary patterns in which oleic acid contributes to a majority of dietary fatty acids are associated with reduced ASCVD risk. These beneficial effects are due to MUFA-induced lipoprotein profile changes such as decreases in low density lipoprotein (LDL) and increases in high density lipoprotein (HDL). LDL oxidation plays a central role in atherosclerosis development as it both initiates and propagates atherosclerosis. HDL is anti-atherogenic as it can attenuate LDL oxidation. HDLs are a class of diverse lipoprotein that varies in protein and enzymatic composition. The paraoxonase (PON) family of enzymes, especially PON1, is primarily expressed in the liver; PON activity in the circulatory system is associated with HDL. Both PON and HDL have been documented to be anti-atherogenic. Other factors such as homocysteine and C-reactive protein (CRP) can also be considered risk factors for ASCVD. However, studies of risk factors in healthy men who consume ground beef with a different content of MUFA are lacking; hence, no conclusive evidence has established whether consuming a high amount of MUFA in the form of ground beef alters the development of atherosclerosis. The overall purpose of this study was to investigate whether the provision of ground beef with a fractionally higher MUFA content could lower or improve several ASCVD risk factors in men who consume ground beef. These risk factors include the metabolic indices of glucose, insulin and homeostasis model assessment (HOMA), inflammation risk factors of CRP and homocysteine and anti-risk factor of paraoxonase. The concentration of homocysteine was determined spectrophotometrically following separation by high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC). Enzyme-linked imminosorbent assay kits that measured the CRP and insulin concentration in plasma. The significance of the results was determined by subjecting the data to ANOVA using the general linear model for repeated measurement (P<0.05). From this study, it can be concluded that MUFA has a beneficial effect of lowering risks as determined by metabolic indices and lipoprotein profile. Moreover, our study showed that different concentrations of MUFA in ground beef has no effect on PON1 activity, but that increased beef consumption generally reduces PON1 in association with increases in homocysteine concentration while improving indicators of glucose tolerance.

INTRODUÇÃO: Os fatores de risco cardiovasculares tradicionais e os relacionados à Doença Renal Crônica contribuem para a alta taxa de mortalidade cardiovascular na população em diálise. A coexistência nesta população de desnutrição, inflamação, aterosclerose, anemia e calcificação vascular têm enorme impacto na sobrevida dos pacientes. Como na população geral, as estatinas reduzem a mortalidade geral e cardiovascular na população em diálise através da redução lipídica e seus efeitos pleiotrópicos, destacadamente a capacidade de reduzir a resposta inflamatória crônica destes pacientes, evidenciada pela redução dos níveis de Proteína C-Reativa ultra-sensível (PCR-us). O grupo de pacientes em hemodiálise com baixo LDL-colesterol (LDL-c), níveis elevados de PCR-us e anemia apresentam alto risco cardiovascular e ainda não existem evidências definitivas de benefício com uso de estatinas. OBJETIVO: Avaliar a eficácia de uma baixa dose de sinvastatina que visa apenas efeitos pleiotrópicos em comparação com uma dose padrão na redução da resposta inflamatória evidenciada pelos níveis de PCR-us, parâmetros hematimétricos, resistência à eritropoetina (IR-EPO), índice de massa corpóreo (IMC) e escore de inflamação-desnutrição (MIS). MÉTODO: Quarenta e dois pacientes estáveis em hemodiálise há mais de seis meses, maiores de 18 anos e sem evidência de processos inflamatórios foram divididos segundo os níveis de LDL-c. Os pacientes com LDL-c<100mg/dl receberam apenas 20mg de sinvastatina após hemodiálise (HD) (grupo-1), enquanto os pacientes com LDL-c>100mg/dl (grupo-2) receberam 20mg/dia durante oito semanas. Antes e após o tratamento foram medidos os níveis de PCR-us, hemoglobina (Hb), hematócrito (Hct) e calculado o IR-EPO, IMC e MIS. Os dados foram analisados com o programa estatístico SPSS. Foi considerado significante p<0.05. RESULTADOS: Houve redução significativa dos níveis de LDL-c e PCR-us em ambos os grupos, sendo a redução do LDL-c significantemente maior no grupo-2 (16,2617,51% vs 37,7311,73%, p<0,0001) enquanto a redução da PCR-us foi equivalente em ambos os grupos (35,9749,23% vs 38,3232,69%, p=0,86). Houve também queda da IR-EPO e melhora dos parâmetros hematimétricos. Não houve mudança no IMC ou MIS. CONCLUSÃO: A baixa dose de sinvastatina mostrou-se tão eficaz quando a dose usual em reduzir os níveis de PCR-us, a IR-EPO e melhorar os parâmetros hematimétricos, apontando para uma importante redução do risco cardiovascular nestes pacientes

BACKGROUND: The traditional cardiovascular risk factors and the Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) related risk factors contribute to the extremely high rate of cardiovascular mortality seems in dialysis population. The coexistence of malnutrition, inflammation, accelerated atherosclerosis, vascular calcification and anemia has an enormous impact in the life span of these patients. As in the general population, statins reduce cardiovascular mortality in dialysis population through lipid lowering and its pleiotropic effects, mainly by the chronic inflammatory process reduction…

Objectives Inflammation and glycohemoglobin (HbA1c) are established risk factors for the development of cardiovascular disease. Recent evidence implicates high sensitivity C-reacting protein (hs-CRP), and thus inflammation, in the metabolic syndrome and diabetes mellitus, particularly in women.MethodsWe investigated the synergy of inflammatory markers and menstrual status in the glycaemic control of women. Several inflammatory markers among them hsCRP, IL-1, IL-4 and serum amyloid A (SAA) were measured in 1131 women . We classified these patients according to HbA1c. Traditional risk factors such as age, body mass index, triglycerides, LDL cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, haemoglobin A1c (Hba1c) were also measured at drug free baseline.ResultsUnivariate analysis revealed a significant correlation between HbA1c and hsCRP (Pearson r=0.219, ρ<0.001) or SAA (Pearson r=0.218 ρ<0.001). It also demonstrated a significant correlation of HbA1c with IL-1 (Pearson r=0.22, p<0.001), ΙL 1 (Pearson r=0.201 ρ<0.001) and IL4 (Pearson r=O.267 ρ=<0.001). Multiple linear regression analysis was applied in order to verify the relation of HbA1c to inflammation markers, adjusted for age, plasma creatinine, systolic blood pressure, glucose metabolic disorders, hyperlipidemia and menstrual status. SAA (β=0.491 ρ<0.001) τον αριθμός των White blood cell count (β=0.015 ρ=0.001) ΙL 1 (β=0.148 ρ<0.001) την IL4 (β=0.642 ρ<0.001) as well as hsCRP (β=0.314 ρ<0.001) were significant independent predictors of glycaemic controlConclusionsThese results suggest that inflammatory response is strongly related to glycaemic control in women and this effect has some different aspects according to particular inflammatory indices.

▼ Hybridization between native and introduced species is an increasingly important topic in conservation biology. Two studies addressing similar questions with different systems were conducted. Chapter 1 investigates the potential for hybridization between between Typha angustifolia and Typha latifolia (Typhaceae) in a constructed Ohio wetland. Chapter 2 compares genetic diversity and flowering phenology of Andropogon gerardii between native Ohio prairies and Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) grasslands. Three taxa of cattail are recognized in the central USA: native Typha latifolia, the invasive Typha angustifolia, and a hybrid between the two species, Typha x glauca. I investigated cattail establishment and the potential for hybridization in a constructed wetland. Typha angustifolia shoots were more abundant and densely packed than those of T. latifolia in the six-year-old wetland. Typha angustifolia flowered two weeks earlier than T. latifolia. RAPDs were used to screen for hybrids. These DNA markers corresponded well to pollen type and the presence or absence of a gap in the floral spike. I found no putative hybrids based on surveys involving molecular and/or morphological traits. Thus, I did not detect gene flow between cattail species, despite opportunities for cross-pollination and F ₁ seedling establishment. In Ohio and elsewhere, grassland plantings in the federal Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) have become much more extensive than native prairie remnants. Non-local seed is often planted for CRP grasslands, which may be undesirable from the standpoint of conservation genetics. The goal of this study was to evaluate the genetic diversity of local vs. non-local big bluestem (Andropogon gerardii) populations and examine the potential for genetic assimilation of native populations with non-local genotypes. Flowering times overlapped extensively, indicating that cross-pollination is possible where native and introduced genotypes co-occur. Using RAPD markers, no significant differences were detected in genetic diversity composition between the two groups (CRP vs. native); 84% of the genetic variation occurred within populations, and 16% occurred among populations. Native and CRP populations did not cluster together strongly in a neighbor joining tree, and genetic diversity values were similar and relatively high for both population types. Taken together, these analyses suggest that genetic differentiation between the two types of Andropogon populations may be minor. Advisors/Committee Members: Snow, Allison (Advisor).

▼ Canine Parvovirus remains a leading cause of enteritis in dogs in South Africa and many other countries despite the wide availability of effective vaccines. The virus does not affect all dogs equally and the course of the disease depends on the age, immune status and breed of the puppies as well as the viral dose, route of exposure and the virulence of the strain. Although aggressive supportive treatment can be successful, the treatment and convalescent periods may be prolonged and consequently expensive and the mortality rate relatively high, causing many clients to forego treatment and elect for euthanasia of their pet. Acute phase proteins (APP) are proteins that change in concentration by at least 25% in animals subjected to external or internal inflammatory challenges, such as infection, inflammation or surgical trauma. Increased concentrations are associated with poor outcome in certain diseases. C-reactive protein (CRP) is the most sensitive APP in dogs. Its normal physiological concentration is low but increases rapidly with inflammation or tissue destruction. Due to the fact that CRP has a relatively short half life in serum (6-8 hours) and a high response in diseased animals, it can be used as a valid measure of a systemic response to an initiating stimulus at the time of blood sampling. By taking serial measurements, objective information about the extent of the ongoing lesions in the patient can be obtained and therefore may be used as a prognostic indicator. The objective of this prospective observational study was to evaluate the association of serum CRP concentrations in puppies suffering from canine parvoviral enteritis with morbidity and mortality, and to determine the usefulness of CRP to predict duration of hospitalisation time. Seventy-nine client owned puppies naturally infected with canine parvovirus were included. Parvovirus infection was diagnosed on electron microscopic examination of faeces from the puppies. CRP was measured using an automated human C-Reactive Protein Turbidimetric Immunoassay (TIA), which has been validated for use in dogs. Serum CRP measurements were performed at admission, twice daily for the first 48 hours, then once daily until death or discharge. There was a positive association between odds of mortality and CRP concentration on admission, as well as 12 and 24 hours after admission (P=0.04,P=0.005 and P=0.003, respectively). Survival time was negatively associated with CRP concentration at 12 and 24 hours after admission (P=0.002and P=0.001, respectively). Among the survivors, length of hospitalisation was positively associated with CRP concentration at 12, 24 and 36 hours after admission (P=0.012, P=0.001 and P=0.002, respectively). Utility for CRP concentration to correctly differentiate between survivors and non-survivors at 24 hours after admission had a sensitivity and specificity of 78.7% and 86.7% respectively. Although serum CRP concentration is associated with outcome in puppies infected with canine parvovirus, when used alone it did not prove to be a good… Advisors/Committee Members: Goddard, Amelia (advisor), Van Schoor, Mirinda (advisor).

▼ Acute phase proteins (APP) are ideal biomarkers for inflammation due to their stability, relative ease of assay and apparent relation between their concentration and the extent of the insult to tissue. C-reactive protein (CRP) is a positive major APP in dogs and can be used as a predictive marker for risk of disease and to monitor the response to treatment. Increased concentrations in certain diseases are associated with poor outcome. This cross-sectional, observational study of 75 dogs naturally infected with Babesia rossi, a cause of virulent canine babesiosis, was designed to examine the association of CRP concentration at admission and the magnitude of CRP change 24 hours after admission with outcome. Dogs were excluded if there was evidence of concurrent inflammatory diseases at the time of admission, infection with subtypes other than B. rossi, concurrent Ehrlichia canis infections or euthanasia for reasons other than poor prognosis. Diagnosis was confirmed by polymerase chain reaction and reverse line blot. CRP concentrations were determined by an automated human CRP Turbidometric Immunoassay (TIA), previously validated for use in dogs (Bayer CRP TIA, Newbury, UK), on serum samples collected by jugular venipuncture on admission, prior to any therapy, and thereafter daily until discharge or death. There was no significant difference in admission CRP concentration between survivors (n = 57; median = 97.4 mg/l; mean ± SD = 107.5 ± 49.5), and non-survivors (n = 11; median = 101.4 mg/l; mean ± SD = 122.1 ± 64.6) (p = 0.39). After elimination of non-significant predictors, a multiple exact logistic regression model for predicting mortality contained glucose and CRP. Mortality was associated with decreased glucose levels (p = 0.0002) and increased CRP levels (p = 0.045) on admission. Multiple regression analysis failed to show a significant relationship between admission CRP concentration and number of days of hospitalization in the survivors, adjusting for age and sex (p = 0.65). No significance was found in the relationship between the magnitude of change in CRP concentration 24 hours after admission, and the number of days of hospitalization in survivors, (p = 0.34). Using an admission CRP concentration cut-off of 60 mg/l, survival proportions between the two groups were no different (p = 0.34) and when applied to the group of dogs that survived, it was not associated with length of hospitalization (p = 0.25). In corroboration with previous reports glucose was identified as a major prognostic marker for mortality, but additionally the pro-inflammatory marker CRP was identified as a significant co-prognosticator.
