(Figure 19 F–G)
Material examined. One specimen. ZMBN117018, ZGWS, 0 2 Feb. 2012, 21m, 49mm.
Habitats. Subtropical rocky reef.
Occurrences. Zavora.
Geographic distribution. Indo-west Pacific. Indonesia (Fahrner & Beck 2000) and potentially Mozambique.
Remarks. This specimen shares features with P. varicosa, P. coelestis, P. marindica and particularly P. haegeli (Fahrner & Beck, 2000). All have rhinotubercles, a greyish background, ridges formed by yellow-capped tubercles, black bands and golden-yellow rhinophores (Brunckhorst 1993; Fahrner & Beck 2000). Phyllidia coelestis differs by having a middle longitudinal black band and Phyllidia marindica by a single median ridge. Phyllidia varicosa resembles Phyllidia haegeli dorsally, but living specimens have a distinctive line on the sole of the foot and they are usually larger, lighter in colour and less flattened (Fahrner & Beck 2000, Fahrner & Schrödl 2000). Few differences exist between our specimen and Phyllidia haegeli. The collected specimen has outer black bands that unite anterior to the rhinophores, while in P. haegeli they converge but do not merge. Furthermore, the specimen exhibits inner longitudinal bands that unite posteriorly but in P. haegeli they are shorter and do not merge. The main distinction is associated with the outer longitudinal black bands: in the collected specimen, these bands are shorter and connect with the radial lines to create an inverted “V”. As Phyllidia can be highly variable (Stoffels et al. 2016), it is not possible to confirm the taxonomic status without further molecular or anatomical review.

description: The All-UC Group in Economic History, active on the UC campuses since 1973, will apply for continued funding from UCOP in the next grant cycle. The All-UC group is a collaboration of economic historians across most of the campuses of the UC system to promote graduate education and research in the field of economic history. Members of the group include faculty and graduate students from economics, history and political science departments. Economic history is a modest sized research group on any particular campus, but the All-UC group has allowed for a critical mass of researchers to interact. It has thus played an important role in graduate education in economic history at the UC, and in the strong placement of graduate students in this field in tenure track positions. Typically 35-40 percent of the group budget has been spent on graduate student support, and we will continue this in the current proposal. The group also brings together faculty in the various UC campuses for 2-3 conferences per year. These conferences have attracted considerable outside financial support from such as Caltech, the Huntington Library, Stanford, Chapman University, and the San Francisco Federal Reserve Bank. They have thus fostered a vibrant research community in economic history in the UC system, one that is known internationally. UCOP is a vital source of funding for this group within the UC system. While individual campuses, such as UC Davis, have made significant contributions to the group, and will make substantial contributions in this next grant cycle, UCOP support is essential.

description: Memory impairment is an increasing burden on California, due to shifting age demographics. Neuroscience has made great progress in understanding why memory fails; but, there has been almost no progress in intervention. Damage to the medial temporal lobe (MTL) of the brain is the main cause of memory impairment. The actual contents of memories are not stored in MTL, however. Rather, MTL creates a tag or "index" for each memory, which is distributed among the many cortical modules that store sub-components of each memory. Recent memories are retrieved when some components become active and cause reactivation of the original index in MTL. This triggers retrieval of the missing items. When MTL is dysfunctional, remote memories are still recoverable, but no new memory is acquired. Thus, MTL helps retrieve recent memories, and helps 'consolidate' them (during sleep) into an MTL-independent form. Can we find a way to substitute for a dysfunctional MTL and thus restore memory function? In theory, "all" that is needed to retrieve a memory is to recreate its index. This leads to a bold new idea on how to create a memory prosthesis to restore MTL function. It should be possible, during learning, artificially to stimulate the cortical layers that register the index, with complex random patterns, one for each memory, to retrieve these memories later by reinstating their artificial index codes, and to 'consolidate' them by replaying their indices during sleep. We propose a well-coordinated technological, computational and experimental assault on this problem with a collaboration involving 11 investigators and their trainees, from 5 UC campuses, representing outstanding expertise in the neurophysiological and neurocomputational basis of memory and in the creation of microelectronic, brain-computer interfaces. We will create a prototype memory-indexing prosthesis; a completely wireless, implantable array of several thousand tiny contacts that permit 2-way communication with the cortex. The array, which has several promising applications beyond memory prosthetics, will be tested in rodents with MTL damage, guided by computer modeling of cortical circuitry. The animal prototype will be scalable to future studies in humans. Our proposal has a strong interdisciplinary training component, with ~75% of the budget supporting students, meetings, workshops and cross-training of graduate students and postdocs in different participating labs.

description: We propose to dramatically enhance structural biology UC system wide. First, we will take one of the world’s most prolific macromolecular crystallography (MX) facilities, the UCB/UCSF beamline 8.3.1, and upgrade it to the sharpest possible focus with diffraction-limited x-ray optics and a state-of-the-art detector. Second, we will leverage the resulting increase in data-collection capacity to extend access from the current UCB/UCSF partnership to a total of more than 75 structural biology labs at all UC campuses. Third, we will continue to lead the world in MX productivity and methods development, directing our efforts to the specific problems faced by UC researchers and passing on that knowledge at each beamline visit. 8.3.1 was constructed at the ALS in 2001 with $1.9M in NSF and private support. A total of 923 scientists from 51 institutions, including 555 scientists from UCB/UCSF, have used 8.3.1 to solve more than 1163 structures of biologically important macromolecules and complexes. This resulted in 488 publications with 182 in the highest-impact journals and led directly to more than $132M of NIH funding into the UC system and $935M into the California economy when our industrial partner Plexxikon was sold to Daiichi Sankyo in 2011. Advances in technology have created an opportunity to enhance 8.3.1’s ability to tackle the ever-increasing challenges of structural biology. The two most crippling challenges today are systems that grow only very small crystals, and/or crystals that are not ordered enough to diffract to sufficient resolution. Large complexes, such as the ribosome [2009 Nobel Prize], membrane proteins [2012 Nobel Prize], and amyloids responsible for neurodegenerative diseases are all examples of one or both of these problems. A $450k optics upgrade will focus down our X-ray beam, simultaneously taking full advantage of small crystals and reducing resolution-destroying background scatter. No amount of photons can make a disordered crystal ordered, but upgrading our detector to the newly released ADSC HF-4.2M ($1.4M) will not only count every diffracted photon, but sample crystal patches 150x faster (at 50Hz). Only with MRPI funding for these upgrades can access be opened to UC-wide research groups that use protein crystallography as a key part of their effort. With the proposed upgrades, we can break through size and resolution barriers and position UC as an internationally recognized powerhouse of macromolecular imaging.

Alteration of Dietary Fat To Reduce Breast Cancer Metastasis

publisherIdentifier: https://ror.org/00dmfq477
publisherIdentifierScheme: ROR

description: The overall goal of this project is to determine how altered dietary fat may reduce the growth and metastasis (the spread to other parts of the body) of human breast cancer. Despite advances in surgical techniques and the development of aggressive therapies for the treatment of primary breast cancer, most deaths are caused by metastasis. Since less than 10% of women with breast cancer have full-blown metastasis in distant organs when their cancer is first detected, if methods were developed to reduce or block metastasis, great advances could be made in the prevention of disease progression.

 Some studies of human populations and disease patterns have reported an association between breast cancer and dietary fat intake, while others have reported that no such association ("positive correlation") exists. A major focus of this proposal is to enable us to understand how certain dietary fats reduce human breast cancer metastasis.

 We, as well as others, have shown that when animals are fed diets with high concentrations of a specific fatty acid, linoleic acid, which is abundant in dietary oils derived from plants, their breast tumor incidence increases and the time required for tumor appearance is greatly diminished when compared to animals fed low levels of linoleic acid. The main differences between the human studies and animal studies are that fat intake in the animal studies are controlled during the progression of the tumor whereas human studies rely on food intake histories (which are limited in their accuracy), often taken after the tumors have started to develop. However, numerous studies with human cell lines indicate a role of dietary fat in the alteration of mammary tumor metastasis. Thus, we hypothesize that dietary fats, particularly those containing fish oils (n-3 fatty acids), may differentially alter primary breast tumor growth and metastasis. We have chosen to focus on two mechanisms that alter the production and responsiveness to a fatty acid based mediator, prostaglandin E2: blood vessel growth, and expression of enzymes associated with metastasis.

 From this work we hope to determine how altering the amount and type of dietary fat may have a significant effect on the spread of breast cancer throughout the body, and thus provide information that could be used to decrease the mortality of women diagnosed with the disease.

description: Achieving a water-secure future requires strategic research to build the knowledge base for better water-resources management. Unprecedented climate change, population growth and changing landcover are radically altering the water cycle, with dramatic impacts on human and environmental uses of water. As California grapples with a multi-year drought, the need for water security is clear. Now is an ideal time for UC to establish a Water Security and Sustainability Research Initiative (WASSRI), alongside California’s water leaders. This multi-campus initiative blends UCs technical advances in water resources with parallel innovations in policy analysis and decision support to meet the state’s water-security challenges. Three elements of water security underpin the research. First, salient, credible and legitimate water information at the proper spatial and temporal scale is a bottleneck for sound decision making. WASSRI will develop innovative, quantitative water accounting and analysis methods that replace century-old technology and provide the foundation for better decisions under increasing uncertainties. Embedding modern information systems into both natural and engineered infrastructure is feasible, affordable and timely. Second, understanding the way water flows through the natural environment, and how it is extracted, conveyed and stored in built and natural infrastructure is fraught with uncertainties. WASSRI will make immediate research contributions by developing understanding of landcover changes on source-water areas, and tools and techniques for better groundwater management. Third, water-management institutions in California have not kept pace with yesterday’s scientific and engineering developments, let alone developed the capacity to adapt to 21st-century stressors. We will tightly weave legal and policy research through our scientific agenda to create an integrated whole. Through integration of measurement and modeling technologies, and drawing on UC expertise across disciplines, we will make rapid progress towards filling the gaps. Focusing initially on two natural laboratories, the Kings River basin and Pajaro Valley, we will develop approaches that link source-water variability with groundwater recharge and use. We will also develop core elements of information systems for wide adoption by stakeholders. Our approach will inform management of groundwater and surface water to enhance water quality, improve the efficiency of water storage and help the state achieve long-term water security.

description: Estrogen has been implicated in the pathogenesis of breast cancer. Since many tumors grow in response to estrogen, synthetic estrogen antagonists have been widely studied as potential therapeutic agents for hormone dependent cancers. Tamoxifen, a synthetic anti-estrogen, is among the most successful specific therapies for breast cancer. Tamoxifen, however, displays estrogen-like effects in the uterus, increasing the risk of uterine cancer. Our ultimate goal is the identification of specific anti-estrogens that can stop breast cancer without stimulating cancer in other tissues, particularly the uterus.

 Estrogen strongly stimulates breast cell division. When a cell divides, it goes through a process where it makes copies of its DNA and then splits in two new cells, each of which contains a carbon copy of the original DNA. The cells pause in what is called a resting phase between each division. During the resting phase, the cells check their DNA for damage (mutations) and repair it. We hypothesize that at least one way that estrogen may drive cancer development is by causing the cells to divide quickly and rush through this resting phase, which would mean that they would not have time to repair all of the DNA damage. The damaged DNA would produce changes in the cells that eventually cause them to become cancers. We also hypothesize that anti-estrogens will keep the cells in resting phase, thus prolonging the amount of time the cell has to repair DNA damage.

 To test this hypothesis, we will make use of human breast and uterine cells that we expose to an oxidative stress, which causes DNA damage, and estrogen or anti-estrogen. Identification of specific anti-estrogens that can decrease DNA damage in breast tissue without unwanted side effects in other tissues, particularly uterus, will provide highly effective anti-cancer therapies for the prevention and/or cure of breast cancer.

Habitats. coral reefs.
Occurrences. Nacala and Nuarro.
Geographic distribution. Indo-west, central Pacific. Phyllidiella pustulosa (Cuvier, 1804) is widely spread in the Indo-Pacific (Brunckhorst 1993). It has been recorded from Hawaii, Society Island to the Western Pacific and Indian Ocean (Gosliner et al. 2008).
Remarks. This morphotype resembles the photograph of Phyllidiella pustulosa in Brunckhorst (1993, second specimen on the left, Plate 5, fig. E). Brunckhorst (1993) stated that ontogenetic variation introduced much confusion in the literature. As a result, there are currently eight synonyms for this species (Rosenberg & Bouchet 2012). However, recent molecular studies showed that P. pustulosa is likely to be a species complex with up to four molecular operational taxonomic units (Stoffels et al. 2016). Therefore, this putative species complex and its geographic distribution needs further investigation.

description: In 2009 we received MRPI funding to establish the UC Medical Humanities Consortium. Before then, there was no coherent representation or structure to demonstrate what “medical humanities” could offer anywhere within the UC system. As an interdisciplinary endeavor at its core and by definition – not only bridging biomedical science and humanities, but embracing multiple sub-disciplines – the Medical Humanities Consortium uses the strength of the relationship between the UC campuses, systemwide, to establish a strong presence in healthcare training and research and is poised to draw international attention to its achievements. Humanities disciplines – history, literature, the visual arts, philosophy, and the social sciences such as anthropology – underscore the importance of holistic approaches to understanding disease and its impact on patients’ lives. Our work has bridged divergent cultures of inquiry to support projects with a mission to enhance our understanding of the human response to disease and suffering, deepen the interpretive skills of health professionals, situate medicine in its broader social and cultural context, and improve the delivery of health care. We produce high-quality research that advances scholarship and strengthens our training programs in health science campuses, answering a call by students for a curriculum more inclusive of humanistic approaches to healthcare, patients’ perspectives, and professionals’ ways of dealing with challenging issues and occupational stressors. With continued funding to support our teaching, student research stipends, and publication series, we aim to take what we learned to have the most impact from our first years and bring our curricular innovations and scholarship to the next level, demonstrating impact on academic communities as well as patient populations far outside UC and beyond California.

description: Mammography is currently used to screen asymptomatic women for breast cancer, but there is a great need to improve sensitivity and the comfort associated with this method. We are developing a breast computed tomography (CT) scanner, which we think will allow the detection of breast cancer lesions in the 3-5 mm range. This is about 1/2 to 1/3 smaller than can be seem by conventional mammography. This increased sensitivity would allow detection almost a year earlier in the course of the disease. In addition, the breast CT scanner will not require compression as mammography does, and a commercial system would require about 2 seconds per breast. Importantly, we calculate that radiation dose will be comparable or less than existing mammography examinations.

 Computed tomography (CT) is used every day for scanning heads, lungs, abdomens and pelvises, however it has not been seriously considered for breast cancer screening because of long-held misconceptions that very high radiation doses would be needed. We are questioning this dogma, and propose a scanner design that will image only breast tissue. We studied breast dose using computer simulations and performed experimental measurements on cadavers, and found that radiation levels comparable to or less than mammography could be used to produce high quality CT images of the breast. We feel that breast CT has the potential of much earlier detection of breast cancer.

 This project is a collaboration between a medical physicist (Boone) and a radiologist, physician (Lindfors). We propose to build a breast screening-specific CT scanner. Women will lay face down on a table, with one breast hanging through a hole in the table. An x-ray tube and detector will produce data that can be used by a computer to generate a series of CT images. The breast CT scanner will require less time for screening because each breast would be scanned in only one position, as opposed to two for mammography. No compression will be used, but some non-painful breast elongation will probably be required. The radiation dose will be up to 30% less for women with larger breasts, and will be about the same as mammography for others. Once tested for safety, dose, and image quality, the breast CT system will be used to evaluate about 50 women who (based on screening mammography) are likely to have breast cancer. This is a necessary step towards using the breast CT system for a clinical trial on a larger group of women, which is an FDA requirement for breast CT to become a clinical technique. Finally, an important aspect of our research will be to incorporate breast cancer advocates assisting us in the design and use of the instrument for maximum comfort.

description: Picture of dinner in honor of Cornelia Bradford, Whittier House Founder and then Director, on the 20th Anniversary of Whittier House, May 6, 1914.  Whittier House scrapbooks document Whittier House programs, events, and anniversary celebrations through newspaper clippings, lecture fliers, newsletters, event programs, and ticket stubs.  Newspaper clippings are primarily from the Jersey Journal.  There is also Whittier House fundraising materials, including pamphlets, appeal letters, brochures, and postcards.  The Whittier House Social Settlement, the first settlement house in New Jersey, was established in Jersey City, N.J. (Hudson County) in 1894.  Founded by Cornelia Foster Bradford, who would remain with the organization as headworker until 1926, Whittier House was based on the settlement house, Toynbee Hall, in England.  Whittier House provided various recreational and educational programs, along with much needed social services, for the immigrant populations of Jersey City.  Many of these successful services were used as models for large-scale social reform movements through the state.  In 1935, the Whittier House was taken over by the Boys' Club of Jersey City.

Remarks. This species has several pink longitudinal ridges formed by rounded tubercles. The foot sole is grey and the oral tentacles are pale grey (Brunckhorst 1993). This species resembles P. zeylanica but it can be distinguished in the field by its ventral colouration and smooth tubercles. This species is likely to be part of a species complex as the ridges are more frequently interrupted in Pacific Ocean specimens than in Indian Ocean animals (Gosliner et al. 2008). The collected specimen exhibited two mid-dorsal ridge interruptions posterior to the rhinophores.
