Sickle reticulocyte microRNA expression and possibly function differ compared to RBCs. We are currently investigating whether exosomes secreted by the K562 erythroid progenitor cell line contain microRNAs, and aim to provide a first insight into a possible mechanism of reticulocyte egress from the bone marrow that may be relevant to sickle cell anemia.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003ELuke Timmins - Advisor, Don Giddens, PhD\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003E\u0022Development of Computational Modeling Techniques to Examine the Association Between Wall Shear Stress and Coronary Allograft Vasculopathy Lesion Formation in Cardiac Transplant Patients\u0022\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003ECoronary allograft vasculopathy (CAV) is the most significant cause of morbidity and mortality for cardiac transplant patients (HTx) after the first year of survival.
