Kenyan students’ resonance with contextualized science: Critical reflections on traditional science curriculum and instruction
(Eldoret Polytechnic, 2013)
Despite the centrality of the informal manufacturing sector (Jua Kali) to the Kenyan
society and its richness in scientific phenomena, there is no strong link between activities in the Jua Kali
and school science. And, ...
Autoregulation of ccl26 synthesis and secretion in a549 cells: a possible mechanism by which alveolar epithelial cells modulate airway inflammation
(2005)
Abonyo, B. O., M. S. Alexander, and A. S. Heiman. Autoregulation of CCL26 synthesis and secretion in A549 cells: a possible
mechanism by which alveolar epithelial cells modulate airway inflammation. Am J Physiol Lung Cell ...
Effective group learning: A case of perspectives from Kenyan high school students
(Eldoret Polytechnic, Kenya, 2013)
In this study we examined whether and how youth learned life skills through their
involvement on a high school soccer team. We collected data from fieldwork and
interviews with 12 male student-athletes and the head ...

Characterization of -soluble n-ethylmaleimide–sensitive fusion attachment protein in alveolar type ii cells implications in lung surfactant secretion
(2002)
N-ethylmaleimide–sensitive fusion protein (NSF) and soluble NSF attachment protein (α-SNAP) are thought to be soluble factors that transiently bind and disassemble SNAP receptor complex during exocytosis in neuronal and ...
CCL26-targeted siRNA treatment of alveolar type II cells decreases expression of CCR3-binding chemokines and reduces eosinophil migration: implications in asthma therapy
(2009)
The underlying infl ammation present in chronic airway diseases is orchestrated by increased expression of CC
chemokines that selectively recruit leukocyte populations into the pulmonary system. Human CCL26 signals
through ...
Cytokine-stimulated human lung alveolar epithelial cells release eotaxin-2 (CCL24) and eotaxin-3 (CCL26)
(Mary Ann Liebert, Inc, 2005)
Asthma is a complex inflammatory disease characterized by a prolonged underlying airway inflammation resulting from cytokine-orchestrated signaling between many types of cells, including airway epithelial cells.
Trafficking, ...
Reorganization of cytoskeleton during surfactant secretion in lung type II cells: a role of annexin II
(Elsevier, 2003)
The secretion of lung surfactant requires the movement of lamellar bodies to the plasma membrane through cytoskeletal barrier at the
cell cortex. We hypothesized that the cortical cytoskeleton undergoes a transient ...
Spatial distribution and consumption patterns of Woodfuel in Sabatia Division, Kenya
(Journal of technology and socio-economic development, 2011)
In the second phase of the Smallholder Dairy Research and Development Project (SDP), as
well as continuing work in central Kenya, attention will be given to Western Kenya where
lessons learnt from the Central and Coast ...
Post-transcriptional silencing of CCR3 downregulates IL-4 stimulated release of eotaxin-3 (CCL26) and other CCR3 ligands in alveolar type II cells
(2008)
Trafficking and inflammation in airway diseases are, in part, modulated by members of the CC chemokine family, eotaxin-1 (CCL11), eotaxin-2 (CCL24), and eotaxin-3 (CCL26), which transduce signals through their CCR3 receptor. ...
