Correspondence is first arranged chronologically with the abridgment following second. Typescript copies of the book are in individual folders in book order with their divisions marked. The second box contains a photocopy made to allow researchers its use while protecting the condition of the original.; Biographical Note; Theodore Day Martin, 1885-1979 : Theodore Day Martin was born in Manti, Utah on August 24, 1885. He was the son of prominent Presbyterian missionary George W. Martin and Matilda Peebles Work Martin. His early education was at the Presbyterian mission school in Manti (1891-1900) and the public school in Manti (1900-1901). In 1901, Theodore entered the Salt Lake Collegiate Institute, graduating in 1905. He attended summer school at the University of Utah in 1905 and 1906, and began teaching elementary school in rural Utah in 1906. He later earned his B.A. degree from Hamilton College, in Clinton, N.Y. in 1912, where he was nicknamed "Ted" and "Mormon" Martin; he was a debater and member of Phi Beta Kappa. He attended the Union Theological Seminary (1912-1915) graduating in 1915, and earned his Ph.D. from Columbia University in 1931. Martin worked as a teacher and social worker in New York State and served two years in the military in France during World War I.; In 1919, Martin returned to Utah teaching in Richfield High School, later serving as its principal and president of the Sevier District Teachers Association, 1920-1922. In 1925 he served as the first executive secretary of the Utah Education Association. Martin left the following year and joined the National Education Association, Washington, D.C., serving as director of the Department of Records and Membership from 1925-1950. He retired in 1950 and devoted the rest of his life to substitute teaching, preaching, and writing. Theodore Martin died January 7, 1979 in Newton, N.J.; Marian Welling Edsall Martin, 1894- : Marian Welling Edsall was born 1894 in Warwick, New York. She married Theodore Day Martin in 1919 in Utah. The couple had 4 children: Maurice Theodore Martin, born November 2, 1922, Richfield, Utah; Mary Carolyn Martin (later Mrs. Carolyn Simank), born September 12, 1924 in Salt Lake City, Utah and died November 2, 2015; Margaret Edsall "Peggy" Martin (later Mrs. Warren McPherson), born January 6, 1930 in Chevy Chase, MD, and died January 9, 2016 in Fredonia, NY; and Marian W. "Polly" Martin (later Mrs. Derek Hawver). In 1939 the family of 6 made a cross-country trip touring 27 states, 7 national parks, and 2 World\u27s Fairs. By the 1957, Marian and Theodore Martin resided in the Edsall ancestral home in Warwick, N.Y. and had two grandsons and three granddaughters. They made an 8,000-mile road trip to Utah and the West in the fall of 1960.; Sources for the Martins\u27 biographical note: Marian W. Edsall entry on Ancestry.com, viewed online February 2, 2016.

Investigating the Effects of Atlastin-1 on Spastin and REEP1 Using Primary Cultured Neurons from Mice with Motor Neuron Disease
No full textv, 32 p.Impairment of axonal transport is a common cause of motor neuron degeneration
and is associated with many neurological disorders including Alzheimer's disease,
Parkinson's disease, Huntington's disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and
hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP). HSP affects approximately 1.27-9.6 per 100,000
people, and pathologically leads to length-dependent retrograde degeneration of
corticospinal neurons. Over .half of all cases of autosomal dominant HSP are caused by
mutations in spastin, atlastin-1, or REEP1. These proteins co-localize and bind together
in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) via intramembrane hydrophobic hairpin domains and
are directly involved in the coordination of ER shaping and microtubule dynamics in
corticospinal neurons. To understand the possible effects of eliminating the protein
atlastin-1 in mouse models, this study used primary cortical neuron cultures from adult
knockout atlastin mice. Immunocytochemistry was performed on these cultured neurons,
staining for spastin, atlastin-1, and REEP 1 to determine how the quantity of atlastin
affects the location and quantity of spastin and REEP 1, as well as axon length in neurons.
While it was confirmed that atlastin levels were significantly less in heterozygous
cultures, overall protein levels of spastin and REEP 1 decreased in heterozygous cultures,
however they were not statistically significant. Future experimentation with atlastin
knockout mice will.allow for an increased understanding of the relationships between
axonal transport and motor neuron degeneration, which is imperative for the development
of molecular-targeted therapies and biomarkers in HSP, as well as other motor neuron
diseases.Department of Neurology. University of Michigan. Ann Arbor, Michigan
