Cystic pneumatosis intestinalis is a rare benign entity, characterized by intramural cysts located mainly in the intestinal wall. The etiology has not yet been elucidated, but generally it is associated with a systemic disease (1-4). Colonic pneumatosis represents about 30% of gastrointestinal cases (1). We present the case of a young girl with anorexia who underwent surgical treatment for cyst...

GODBOLE, RAHUL PUSHPAK. Design of a Flexible DSP Based Controller Hardware System for Power Electronics Applications. (Under the direction of Prof. Subhashish Bhattacharya). This thesis proposes the concept of a universal controller hardware system for power electronics applications. With the presence of generic interfaces and communication schemes, this system can be used in various other cont...

papA gene of avian pathogenic Escherichia coli.

P fimbrial adhesins may be associated with the virulence of avian pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC). However, most APECs are unable to express P fimbriae even when they are grown under conditions that favor P fimbrial expression. This failure can be explained by the complete absence of the pap operon or the presence of an incomplete pap operon in Pap-negative APEC strains. In the present study...

Feroz Papa: Saving cells from themselves

I n humans, IRE1 is central to one of three pathways that sense the presence of misfolded proteins in the ER, initiating early steps of the unfolded protein response (UPR). ER stress induces IRE1 multimerization and activation of its cytoplasmic RNase domain, which then cleaves the RNA encoding the transcription factor XBP1. This cleavage step allows XBP1's translation into protein so that it c...
