    L1-guided differentiation of embryonic stem cells towards neural lineages

    No full text
    Embryonic stem cells are pluripotent cells that have the ability to differentiate into cell lineages from all three germ layers. However, the use of stem cells in therapeutics relies on the ability to control their differentiation. Studies have shown that implantation of undifferentiated ES cells into an injury site leads to their spontaneous differentiation and potential tumor formation. One method to control stem cell differentiation is through the design of biomaterials that mimic the natural microenvironment during development. Biomaterials can provide a microenvironment in which host as well as replacement therapeutic cells can reside. Controlling this microenvironment provides opportunities to present specific physical and soluble cues that control cell and tissue fate. Herein, we conjugate the cell adhesion molecule L1 to type I collagen to allow for its sustained, physiologically relevant presentation. L1 is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily shared by neural and immune cells and has been shown to promote neurite extension as well as functional recovery in adult rats after contusion-induced spinal cord injury. In this study, we will investigate the role of L1 on mouse embryonic stem cells. We will assay the effects of L1 presentation on cell adhesion, proliferation, and most importantly differentiation of embryonic stem cells (mESCs). As L1 has a homophilic binding domain, we will study the effects of using a genetically modified mESCs that overexpress L1 in combination with our L1-grafted biomaterial. Collectively, these studies will provide greater insight into the role of designing materials to guide the differentiation of stem cells. These materials may be used as delivery mechanisms for stem cell therapeutics or scaffolds on which ones own stem cells can differentiate towards a particular required cell type or lineage.M.S.Includes bibliographical referencesby Hsuan Yu Shi

    A performer's guide to four clarinet works by William Bolcom: Concert Piece, Little Suite of Four Dances, Concerto for Clarinet, and Chalumeau

    No full text
    American composer William Bolcom (b. 1938) established his reputation through his use of diverse styles namely atonality, interval series, neoclassicism, jazz, pop music, and ragtime. However, his clarinet repertoire does not receive as much attention as his other works and lacks scholarly documentation. In order to provide a comprehensive approach for fellow clarinetists, this document explores four commissioned pieces written by Bolcom: Concert-Piece (1959), Little Suite of Four Dances (1984), Concerto for Clarinet (1988), and Chalumeau (2004), providing background information, analytical overviews, and performance ideas for each piece. To further verify the findings of this document, the author has also interacted with the composer through e-mail correspondence and in-person coaching sessions.U of I Only Restriction set for Item 99285 on 2017-05-22T19:57:52Z with date by [email protected] by David Butler ([email protected]) on 2017-05-22T20:12:32Z No. of bitstreams: 1 Yu-Hsuan Liao_Thesis.pdf: 1628435 bytes, checksum: 335126976d5e297f497fa99629091d40 (MD5)Made available in DSpace on 2017-05-22T20:12:32Z (GMT).
