description: This project will help determine why people who have symptoms of obsessive compulsive disorder—a mental health condition involving distress, uncontrollable and intrusive thoughts or impulses, and compulsive behavior—are vulnerable to persistent tobacco addiction. The results will guide future research to develop effective smoking cessation treatments for people with obsessive-compulsive symptoms. Because of the enormous health costs associated with smoking and mental illness, the knowledge gained from this research could yield substantial public health benefits.

description: Changing the unavailability of healthy food choices at Rutgers University.
description: A healthy diet is one of the important parts in our life. Having a healthy diet helps maintaining or improving general health. Healthy diet means consuming minimal amount of all crucial nutrients. Nutrients can be gained from various different foods such as vegetables, fruits, whole grains, and nuts, so on. Busy schedules filled with work, school, and study time can leave Rutgers’s students with little time for sit down meals. Fast food is a speedy way to squeeze a meal into a fast-paced lifestyle. However, healthy and nutritious options are hard to find, especially for students living in campus. Since lack of attention is gain on healthy food, Rutgers students have set up a place where they will be educate what can be done for better food choices in campus. There, also will be healthy refreshments served outside SCC hall where students have held a conference on April 19, 2012 between 4:30-&:00 at the Archibald S. Alexander Library. What I mean by healthy food is food that contains low fat calories, low sodium, fruits, etc. There are many ways students can get healthy and cheap food on the campus. Educating students for importance of such a food option is the first part of the goal and Rutgers students are willing to take this challenge.

description: A targeted spay/neuter awareness campaign utilizing conventional media
description: Overpopulation of companion animals, particularly of dogs, is rapidly becoming endemic to nearly every portion of the United States. As a result, it is approximated that four million dogs are euthanized each year with hundreds of thousands more languishing in overcrowded and poorly maintained shelters. The cause of this problem is deeply rooted in irresponsible or ignorant pet owners who fail to have their dogs spayed or neuter, leading to unplanned litters and stray animals reproducing rapidly in the wild. This ignorance and irresponsibility is two-fold; pet owners are both unaware of the importance of spaying or neutering their pet and many are barred from accessing the surgery due to its high cost. To remedy this problem, we focused on raising awareness of the importance of spaying or neutering your pet and advertised for low-cost surgery options that are available in the low-income areas of New Brunswick, New Jersey through boots on the ground physical media.

REMARKS. Two syntype males are deposited in the Museo de La Plata (Marino de Remes Lenicov et al. 2015). The very light infuscation on the fore wings, mainly green venation including the anal veins 2 and 3 in the hind wing, the intense blue basal areas of the wings, and the fore wing length to width ratio of 3.13 in A. insignifera n. comb. distinguishes it from A. venturii n. comb. that has heavy infuscation in the fore wings mainly ochraceous venation with piceous anal veins 2 and 3 in the hind wings, basal areas of the wings gray mottled with blue, and the fore wing length to width ratio of 3.04 in A. venturii n. comb.
DISTRIBUTION. The species has been reported previously only from Argentina (Metcalf 1963a; Duffels & van der Laan 1985; Sanborn 2013; Sanborn & Heath 2014). The specimen received from Gonzalo Navarro below was collected in the Bolivian-Tucuman Subhumid Yungas Forest Formation of Rivas-Martínez et al. (2011) (G. Navarro in litt.). It has been reported from the middle levels of the Yungas floristic province in Argentina (Sanborn et al. 2011a).

description: Every mind is endowed with a unique wiring of neural networks. Some minds are wired to handle a lot of information at once; other minds can process only a little information at a time, but with great accuracy. Yet, our educational system does not acknowledge the diversity of multiple intelligences, and prefers to shrink students down to a list of scores that will determine their lives all through school and their future careers. To foster diverse intelligences, we must reform education. One solution may be to provide an creative environment in the classroom encouraging of people’s diverse, multiple intelligences. Creating an evaluation that will provide an instructor with the student’s personal feedback is a small step towards developing such an environment.

description: An expose on the weight loss industry using Hydroxycut products as an example: fraud and ineffective regulation of supplements
description: In the past twenty years obesity in America has become a major health care problem that has been increasing. The public spends $30 billion dollars a year on weight loss products and services. However, under the DSHEA, dietary supplements are not tested for their safety or effectiveness. Thus, only if the FDA receives reports is it required to shows that the product is unsafe. Current solutions for removing unsafe products from the market take many years to accomplish and a lot of work. We propose that state legislators urge the federal government to regulate dietary supplements more effectively by requiring companies to prove safety and efficacy of their products prior to being marketed, make it mandatory that companies report all side effects of the product and expand the FDA’s recall authority. These changes will not cost the federal government much money and will insure a greater safety for consumers.

Odopoea venturii Distant 1906c: 150. (Salta Province, Argentina)
REMARKS. The history of the synonymy and status of the species is discussed in Sanborn & Heath (2014) and reviewed above. The heavy infuscation in the fore wings mainly ochraceous venation with piceous anal veins 2 and 3 in the hind wings, basal areas of the wings gray mottled with blue, and the fore wing length to width ratio of 3.04 distinguishes this species from A. insignifera n. comb. that has very light infuscation on fore wings, mainly green venation including the anal veins 2 and 3 in the hind wing and the intense blue basal areas of the wings, and the fore wing length to width ratio of 3.13 in A. insignifera n. comb.
The Bolivian specimen supports the separate status for A. venturii n. comb. and A. signata n. comb. When compared to the syntypes of A. signata n. comb., the fore wing infuscation extends across ulnar cell 3 and does not reach the node along the nodal line, there is no spot of infuscation of the proximal base of cubitus anterior 1, the bifurcation of cubitus anterior 1 and cubitus anterior 2 forms an acute angle rather than a right angle, cubitus anterior 1 is slightly arched at its formation continuing as a smooth curve to the distal vein rather than an obvious arch and obtuse angle near the base of cubitus anterior 1, the distal infuscation is denser, the lateral pronotal collar is wider and more angulate, the prothoracic and mesothoracic markings are more elaborate, the cruciform elevation is green rather than piceous, the fuscous dorsal tergites, and the female opercula are smoothly rounded in A. venturii n. comb.
DISTRIBUTION. The new record fills the gap in the previously reported distribution of Argentina and Peru (Metcalf 1963a; Duffels & van der Laan 1985; Sanborn 2013; Sanborn & Heath 2014).

Final report for 2004 on the condition of the municipal beaches in the Borough of Mantoloking, Ocean County, New Jersey
Creators: name: No Name Supplied
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2004

description: In 1993 the Borough of Mantoloking requested that the Richard Stockton College of New Jersey Coastal Research Center (CRC) design and establish a beach-monitoring program to provide information on coastal zone management issues within the municipality. Five sites were selected based on a variety of criteria including accessibility, prior history of data collection, uniformity in spacing between sites and providing a typical representation of the surrounding dune and beach conditions. These same five sites have been monitored by the CRC on a quarterly schedule over the last 14 years, ensuring a continuous and coherent data set, which provides the Borough with a valuable resource tool when determining coastal management issues. This monitoring program is intended to provide the municipal officials with a periodic review of the shoreline stability, dune erosion or accretion and monitor changes to the vegetation and sand collecting systems installed by individual property owners.

description: The Richard Stockton College of NJ Coastal Research Center (CRC) has initiated a post‐storm survey and assessment of the New Jersey shoreline in response to severe beach erosion resulting from the impact and landfall of Hurricane Sandy. As a result of the Presidential Disaster Declaration, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has termed the event DR‐NJ‐4086 for reporting/assistance purposes. The analysis for the developed barrier islands of Atlantic County compares data collected before and after the storm. On Brigantine Island, the comparison survey dates were from late‐October to mid‐November. The Absecon Island comparison survey dates were from early June to early November. This initial report is focused on the impact to the Atlantic County dunes and beaches from Hurricane Sandy. The damage details have been organized specific to each municipal segment on the County’s two developed barrier islands. The island of Little Beach is located within the Forsythe National Wildlife Refuge and is not surveyed under the NJ Beach Profile Network program.

TYPE GENUS. Fidicina Amyot & Audinet-Serville 1843: 472.
REMARKS. Marshall et al. (2018) synonymized the Hyantiini into the Fidicinini along with the addition of several genera previously classified in a number of different tribes, including Nosola Stål, 1866b (formerly in the Taphurini Distant, 1905b of the Cicadettinae Buckton, 1890) of the Bolivian cicada fauna. Species of the tribe are distributed across the majority of the New World being absent only at the higher latitudes (Metcalf 1963s; Duffels & van der Laan 1985; Sanborn 2013; Sanborn & Heath 2012; 2014). The Fidicinini can be distinguished by the timbal covers which extend anteriorly exposing part of the timbal dorsally, the well developed and usually angulate opercula, the trapezoidal pronotum sometimes with the posterior angles lobately produced, and the distinctly elevated metasternum in the genera of the Fidicinini (Distant 1905b; Boulard & Martinelli 1996). Species of the tribe are unique in their possession of large protuberances on the hind coxae, timbal covers that are reduced dorsally, a basal pygofer lobe that is never bifurcate, an uncus with a dorsal crest and ventral apophyses to restrain the aedeagus, and the lack of medially angulate lateral pronotal margins (Marshall et al. 2018).

Range: Red deer were abundant in extreme northeastern Korea in the early 1900s (Lee 1965) but became rare by the 1960s (Won 1968). Populations may persist in North Korea at Mt. Baekdu and adjacent areas (Woo 1990; Won & Smith 1999), although this remains uncertain (Fig. 71).
Remarks: Genetic investigations using mtDNA indicated that an eastern lineage including populations from North America had a closer relation to the populations in Mongolia and northeastern China than populations in Europe (Mahmut et al. 2002). Ancestral populations of C. elaphus emigrated from northeastern Eurasia to North America via Beringia during the last glacial period in the Pleistocene (Geist 1998). The genetic distances (2.0%) between North American and Mongolian populations provided an estimated divergence time between 52,000 and 80,000 years (Polziehn & Strobeck 1998). The recognized subspecies of red deer in Far East Asia including Korea is C. e. xanthopygus (Won & Smith 1999).
Conservation status: The North Korean government designated habitat in Samjiyeon at Mt. Baekdu a Natural Monument (Kim et al. 2015). The Red Data Book for North Korea lists C. elaphus as a ‘Rare’ species (MAB National Committee of DPR Korea 2002). The South Korean government has not addressed the conservation status of the red deer.

description: Current antiretroviral therapy is effective in controlling HIV/AIDS, but it does not cure a patient of the virus because the virus is able to lay dormant in a large reservoir of cells. In order to achieve a cure, it will be necessary to kill these virus-harboring cells. The body’s natural mechanism to kill infected cells, cytotoxic T cells, may not be sufficient because dormant viruses have typically evolved mutations to escape detection by these cytotoxic T cells. Therefore, we propose to engineer T cells with broadly-neutralizing chimeric antigen receptors (bNAb-CARs). These bNAb-CARs will contain an antigen receptor that has been shown to recognize over 95% of HIV-1 strains, so we hypothesize that they will be effective in recognizing viral mutants. In addition, they contain several activation domains that will amplify the killer T cell response. These activation domains have been thoroughly tested in other disease models, such as B cell lymphomas, and clinical trials with B cell CARs have demonstrated long-lasting tumor remissions. We hypothesize that these bNAb-CARs will provide similar broad and durable protection from HIV expansion, and they may also be a mechanism through which to eliminate the viral reservoir. To test these hypotheses, we will produce bNAb-CARs in cell cultures and measure their ability to respond to and kill other cells that are either expressing some HIV-1 proteins or completely infected with replicating virus. We will also test these bNAb-CARs in a mouse model of HIV infection, in which humanized mice are infected with HIV-1 and then treated by transplantation of bNAb-CARs. If these bNAb-CARs are successful at controlling HIV infection in vitro and in vivo, we expect that this method can be translated in therapies in humans. Such a T cell therapy may lead to a new era of HIV/AIDS treatment in which patients do not need to depend on daily administration of antiretroviral drugs.

description: The Richard Stockton College of NJ Coastal Research Center (CRC) has initiated a post-storm survey and assessment of the New Jersey shoreline in response to severe beach erosion resulting from the impact and landfall of Hurricane Sandy October 29, 2012. Declared a Federal Disaster by President Obama on October 31, 2012, this information is being prepared to show the general trend of beach/dune loss between the Delaware Bay on the west shore of Cape May County around the Point, and up the coast to Ocean City. The analysis for the 31 survey sites starting at Reeds Beach, moving around Cape May Point and up the oceanfront to Ocean City, NJ was completed November 26, 2012. Beach front clean up work was all but complete in most locations because all of Cape May County was south of the point of landfall for the storm. The consequence was that the second high tide was opposed by the southwest wind on the back side of the storm; therefore the surge was up to 10 feet lower than documented in Long Branch. This initial report is focused on the impact to municipal dunes and beaches from Hurricane Sandy. All of the Cape May NJ Beach Profile Network (NJBPN) sites were surveyed earlier in the fall, so site was re-surveyed to wading depth to get as much information as fast as possible. In the spring of 2013,the normal long profiles will be run to see longer term comparisons with the spring of 2012 conditions.

Receptor Re-expression in ER and PR Negative Breast Cancer

description: It is estimated that 20% of women diagnosed with breast cancer in the California will have hormone receptor-negative (HRN) invasive breast cancer, an aggressive subtype of breast cancer that also disproportionately affects young women, African American women, and Hispanic women. HRN breast cancers are characterized by the failure of these tumors to make estrogen/progesterone receptors that allow the tumors to respond to endocrine (e.g. tamoxifen) therapies. Thus, if new approaches could be developed to re-express ER/PR in tumors, then they would potentially be more treatable.

 A growing body of pre-clinical evidence implicates excessive histone deacetylases (HDACs) as a primary mechanism responsible for loss of ER, and possibly PR, gene expression in breast cancer. Preclinical studies also indicated that inhibition of HDACs can restore sensitivity to endocrine therapy. Based on these studies, we hypothesize that histone deacetylation inhibition is capable of inducing expression of the ER and PR genes in the tumors of women with HRN breast cancer by reversing aberrant acetylation of the ER and PR genes.

 In this project we will conduct a clinical trial to determine the effect of suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid (SAHA), an inhibitor of HDACs. SAHA is already in clinical use under the name Zolinza for the treatment of cutaneous T cell lymphoma (CTCL) during or after treatment with other medicines. In our study, SAHA will be administered orally and daily for 21 days prior to surgery in women with core needle biopsy diagnosed, operable, ER-negative, PR-negative, and HER2/neu non-amplified breast cancers. Enrollment will be limited to patients with 0% ER and 0% PR nuclear IHC staining (based on Clinical Laboratory Standards testing for ER?, PR? and PRß) and no evidence of HER2/neu gene amplification by fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) to minimize the influence of arbitrary cut-offs and observer error. In these studies, ER and PR expression will be measured in pre-and post-treatment to determine the degree to which HDAC inhibition alters their expression levels. The primary efficacy endpoint will be combined PR/ER response. SAHA will not be considered sufficiently effective if only a small percentage (on the order of 5%) of patients exhibit such a response. Response rates on the order of 25% will be of clinical interest and worthy of further investigation.

 Positive results from this investigation would provide a sound rationale for the combined use of HDAC inhibitors in combination with tamoxifen for the treatment of HRN breast cancers.

description: Despite the obvious success of current anti-HIV drugs, which can often reduce levels of virus in a patient to undetectable levels, the drugs do not cure people of HIV, so that virus levels rapidly rebound if a patient stops taking the drugs. The reason for this is that low levels of latent or ‘sleeping’ HIV remain in cells, safe from attack by the drugs, but able to wake up at any point and restart an infection. In this grant we propose to develop new ways to seek out and destroy these sleeping viruses. To do this we will use sophisticated tools from gene therapy, that allow both destruction of a specific stretch of DNA, such as the HIV virus, as well as tools to deliver these reagents to the types of blood cells that are more likely to harbor these sleeping viruses. If successful, such an approach could be used in addition to conventional anti-HIV drug treatments, to eventually cure people of their HIV infection.

description: Gene therapy engineering of human cells to be resistant to HIV is one approach that in the future could allow patients to fight off HIV infection without having to take daily doses of anti-HIV drugs. We have already shown that this is possible in a proof-of-principle study using a technology called zinc finger nucleases that can block expression of the essential CCR5 entry molecule. Although these results are exciting, CCR5 gene knockout will only protect against certain types of HIV-1 that use CCR5 to enter cells, and will not protect against other strains that use CXCR4 instead. To expand protection to these other strains of HIV-1, I am now developing a next generation therapy that simultaneously knocks out the CCR5 gene in human cells while also inserting an anti-HIV gene at the same site. In this proposed work, I will determine which of a panel of candidate anti-HIV genes is the most effective at protecting human cells from infection by both types of HIV-1. The first part of my proposal will be aimed at optimizing the tools and techniques to do this efficiently in human cells, and the second part will then investigate which of the candidate anti-HIV genes works the best. I will examine this using ‘humanized mice’, which both support the growth of engineered human cells and can be infected by HIV-1.

description: Therapeutic horseback riding is used for people with many disabilities through out the country. However, these programs can be quite expensive for the families of the participants. Many programs are not funded and since they are not covered by insurances, most families have to pay out of pocket. However, Hippotherapy programs are covered by insurance companies because they require a PT or OT certified therapist with a few days of horse related training. Therefore, all therapeutic riding centers should increase their standards for instructors and have them all be PT/OT certified as well. This would increase funding for the therapy and lessen the burden of this therapy on families that wish to participate. This would also create another path for  Pre-Vet students at Rutgers University—creating another career where they can work hand in hand with animals with out going to vet school.

description: A puzzling aspect of HIV-1 infection is that the body’s classic anti-viral response – the production of interferon (IFN) – does not seem to protect against this virus, since higher levels of IFN are associated with worse disease outcomes. Most IFN is produced from a specialized cell type called plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs). Normally, IFN is produced from pDCs for only a short period of time, and its production is limited by the action of the BST-2 protein, which binds to and activates a receptor on the surface of pDCs called ILTR7. Interestingly, HIV-1 contains protein called Vpu that blocks the expression of BST-2 on the surface of HIV-infected cells. We hypothesize that this action of Vpu has evolved to stop the BST-2/ILTR7 interaction and to thereby maintain high levels of pDC activation and IFN production, and that this in some way drives HIV-1 pathogenesis. In order to test this hypothesis we will set up systems in cell culture and in vivo to explore the ability of the Vpu protein to influence IFN production from pDCs. Understanding whether the virus has evolved to de-regulate IFN production, and the mechanism that drives this, may suggest new therapeutic approaches to limit the pathogenic consequences of HIV infection.

description: An effective treatment strategy for breast cancer requires two elements: (1) accurate diagnosis of disease and a mechanism to follow efficacy of treatment and (2) a targeted treatment of the disease that stops progression. What is needed to bridge these two elements is a disease-imaging agent capable of limiting disease progression, while also evaluating extent of disease and efficacy of therapy. Breast cancer therapy is difficult because the disease is represented by individual cells that are very heterogeneous with respect to growth and metastasis potential. In addition, therapy must exploit molecular and biochemical differences between the cancer cells and the surrounding normal breast tissues.

 Cells that make up breast cancer display surface proteins that might be efficiently used to target for drug delivery and be detected by specific imaging agents. We hypothesize that a fragment of natural human ADAM proteins (A Disintegrin and Metalloproteinase), will bind to breast cancer cells with a high specificity and limit both tumor and blood vessel growth. The ADAM proteins play regulatory roles in cell-cell interactions through proteolytic processing of the extracellular domains of cell surface proteins, such as growth factors, signaling molecules, and adhesion molecules (e.g. integrins). Among the integrins binding to disintegrin domains of ADAM proteins is ?v?3, which has been the focus of our previous research.

 In this project we propose to produce a recombinant ADAM-Derived Disintegrin (rADD), characterize its properties and evaluate its anti-tumor efficacy in mouse models of human breast cancer. We postulate that we will be able to identify a rADD that: (i) can be expressed with retention of function; and (ii) possesses a high degree of affinity for integrins ?v?3, ?5?1 and ?v?5, which are important in both tumor growth and tumor induced angiogenesis. Also, we will label the rADD proteins radioactively with a short-lived PET (positron emission tomography) imaging agent. The labeled rADDs will then allow visualization via high resolution PET imaging which then permits identification and evaluation of both primary and metastatic tumors. We will test whether treatment with the recombinant rADDs will limit tumor growth, spread, and inhibit blood vessel growth into the tumor. Finally, we will use the PET labeled form of the rADDs to follow and evaluate efficacy of treatments in mouse models of human breast cancer. The proposal is innovative because it utilizes a human-derived protein to diagnose, treat and evaluate therapeutic efficacy.

description: The Richard Stockton College of NJ Coastal Research Center (CRC) has initiated a post‐storm survey and assessment of the New Jersey shoreline in response to severe beach erosion resulting from the impact and landfall of Hurricane Sandy.The analysis for the southern 15 survey sites starting at the Manasquan Inlet, moving north to Darlington Avenue in the Borough of Deal, NJ in southern Monmouth County. The field work was completed November 12, 2012 as clean‐up work continued to clear Ocean Avenue and surrounding streets of sand. This excavated material was being returned to the beach and is included in the survey cross section since it is now part of the post‐Sandy beach. This initial report is focused on the impact to municipal dunes and beaches from Hurricane Sandy. The damage details have been organized specific to each municipal segment of the county shoreline starting at Manasquan Inlet and ending at the northern profile site in Deal, NJ. The coastal segment between Manasquan Inlet to Asbury Park was the section of shoreline where the New York District Army Corps of Engineers conducted its Phase II Shore Protection Project between 1999 (initial contract for Manasquan to Shark River) and 2001 (second contract for Shark River to Asbury Park). No subsequent maintenance work has been conducted in this reach. The 2011 CRC 25‐year report evaluated the sand quantity remaining within this reach at the 13 sites within the project extent at between 55% and 135% of the initial placement volume.
