description: White button mushrooms are found to suppress breast cancer cell growth by preventing the synthesis of estrogen, the female hormone. Estrogen plays a major role in the development of breast cancer. In estrogen-dependent breast tumors, estrogen stimulates the formation of growth factors that are essential for breast cancer growth. In cells, a protein called aromatase produces estrogen, and in breast cancer patients, tumors contain an abnormally high level of aromatase, which generates a large amount of estrogen.

 During the last several years, both preclinical and clinical studies have demonstrated that aromatase inhibitors (such as letrozole and anastrozole) are better drugs than tamoxifen (an antiestrogen) in treating hormone-dependent breast cancer. Results have also been obtained that suggest that aromatase inhibitors are useful drugs to prevent breast cancer. Preliminary results from this laboratory have shown that mushrooms contain chemicals that inhibit aromatase and that the oral intake of mushroom extract suppresses breast tumor formation in mice. Therefore, it is thought that white button mushrooms (species Agaricus bisporus) may be a useful chemopreventive agent for breast cancer, given that they suppress aromatase/estrogen biosynthesis. In this proposed study, more extensive animal studies using nude mice will be performed to critically evaluate the preliminary findings. Gene array analysis will be performed to identify genes in tumors whose expressions are modified by mushroom feeding. In addition, experiments will be designed to identify the active components in mushrooms that are responsible for the suppression of breast tumor formation.

 This research will provide us with a scientific basis as to why mushrooms are capable of suppressing breast tumor formation. The proposed research has potential for a translational impact on breast cancer in that the results generated should be very useful for designing prevention strategies against breast cancer by using mushrooms. Such a prevention method should be readily available and affordable to the general community of California.

Type species: Helioctamenus hippopotamus Schaufuss, 1882
Taxonomic assignment. The specimen under consideration belongs to the tribe Sarrotriini based on the combination of the following characters: (1) dorsally concealed antennal insertions; (2) antennae setose, 10- or 11-segmented, without distinctly separated antennal club; (3) antennal insertions distant from eyes; (4) procoxal cavities open posteriorly; (5) all tarsi tetramerous, not dilated; (6) prosternal process wide, emarginate apically; and (7) metacoxae separated by intercoxal abdominal process with rounded apex. The tribe includes three genera from the Western Palearctic: monotypic Diplagia Reitter, 1882; Orthocerus Latreille, 1796 with two European species; and comparatively diverse Helioctamenus (Ślipiński & Schuh 2008). The new extinct species is assigned to the genus Helioctamenus based on: antennae sparsely and shortly setose (in contrast to Diplagia and Orthocerus), not fusiform (in contrast to Orthocerus); interfacetal setae absent; body sparsely setose dorsally; and pronotum distinctly narrower than elytral base (in contrast to Diplagia).

Reforming local government in developing countries

Year: 2013

description: Engaging citizens in the decision making process is the fundamental principle of democratic governance. Making budget decisions transparent and open for citizens strengthens social accountability and restores the public’s confidence in overall government (Tanaka, 200&).   This dissertation explores the challenges in implementing a donor-driven driven participatory budgeting process in the transitional country - Kyrgyzstan. It also seeks to examine the sustainability of participatory budgeting and its effect on local budgets and politics. This study employs a qualitative dominant sequential mixed methods approach and is built on the implementation theoretical framework. The study covers 16 local governments using face-to-face interviews with local administrators, experts representing donor agencies, and citizens. In addition, over 33 local governments were surveyed across five regions in Kyrgyzstan. The data was collected in several stages. In-depth interviews were conducted using semi-structured interviews, which were followed by surveys.  The qualitative analysis reveals that barriers hindering the implementation of successful participatory budgeting (P.B.) range from simple organizational issues - poor facilities and inadequate level of professional management skills - to complex problems, such as lack of trust and limited financial resources. This study revealed differences between challenges faced by urban and rural local governments. At the same time, the sustainability of budget hearings was found to be connected with local government capacity, local leadership, human capital, as well as the level of trust. Donor-driven budget hearings were found to be a sustainable practice.  The interview analysis demonstrates some effect of budget hearings on improving efficiency of service delivery. Having budget hearings is perceived to empower not only citizens, but also local legislative council members.   The quantitative analysis - which employed the probability of conducting budget hearings as a dependent variable - confirms that individual characteristics of local leaders, local economic development, and the history of budget hearing are statistically significant and influence the probability of having budget hearings.  This study recommends the implementation of performance-based budgeting, citizen committees to oversee the inclusion of citizens’ recommendations into the budget, and using multiple participatory tools along with budget hearings to make the process effective.

description: Many studies have shown that one of the first changes observed in the development of solid malignant tumors, such as breast tumors, is loss of normal tissue morphology.

 The Slits are a family of secreted proteins that are candidates for mediating interactions betweens cells and their environment. They were originally discovered in the nervous system where they repel and attract axons, and promote their branching. Receptors for Slits, called Robos, have also been discovered in the nervous system and appear to mediate the many, diverse functions of Slits. Members of both the Slit and Robo families are expressed in other developing organs, but their function in these tissues is unknown. Our preliminary data shows that Slit2, Slit3, Robo1 and Rig1 (Robo3) are expressed in the mammary gland and there is growing evidence that these genes function as mammary tumor suppressors. Given so little information about the normal role of Slits outside the nervous system, we do not understand how their loss of expression during cancer progression affects their function. The aim of this grant is to elucidate the biology of Slits and Robos in the developing mammary gland by analyzing their loss-of-function phenotypes. With these studies we will establish the foundation for understanding the role these genes play as

 tumor suppressors in breast.
Constructing an integrated model of public-sector leadership competencies

description: Driven by the forces of globalization, the sweeping developments of recent decades have prompted changes in societal perceptions of leadership. The meaning of the concept itself has changed so dramatically that public leadership does not mean public-sector leadership anymore as the sectoral boundaries have been crossed to include individuals from the private and nonprofit sectors, civic leaders, and community volunteers involved in addressing pressing social, economic, and environmental problems (Luke, 1998). And yet, the chain of recent, universally acknowledged public sector leadership failures indicate that lack of leadership in public organizations is, if not immediately apparent, quite real.    Increasingly, leadership quality is being linked to leadership training and development. In particular, an approach to leadership development and selection that is gaining momentum under “the pervasive influence” of New Public Management in the US and a number of other countries (Mau, 2009) is based on a set of identifiable personal characteristics called competencies.   This research offers an analysis of competency-based approaches and addresses the need for better articulation of leadership models to ensure a better fit with the public sector (Trottier et al., 2008). The purpose of this theory-building exercise has been to create an integrated model of public-sector leadership competencies that could be used as a template in developing a leadership training program for public sector executives and/or managers. Exploratory in nature and qualitative in terms of methodology, the research offers a phenomenological perspective and provides critical assessment of the competency movement’s place within the processes transforming public service. Grounding the analysis in the existing leadership and public administration literature, I ask the questions: How well does the competency-based approach serve the mission of producing public leaders capable of sustaining high performance in their work communities—departmental units or agencies? And is it capable of capturing and integrating new and emerging competencies as they appear?  The synthesis of selected competency models into the integrated model brings the disparate and disjointed language of competency modeling one step closer to a common denominator, thus deepening our understanding of this phenomenon. It also responds to the perceived need to further develop competency-based theory of leadership and contributes, through the advancement of the topic, to the improvement of our civil service and its leadership cadre’s training and development.
From dadaism to free jazz

description: What does it mean for something to be called “avant-garde”? The ambiguity of such a label fails to define the works of which it is typically applied. It’s more relevant to think of the term as an on-going process that explores new artistic possibilities. This thesis will look at some factors that helped propel such a process into motion and the shared aesthetics that came as a result.     An avant-garde process began in the early 20th century as individuals and groups sought out a divergent worldview that began to question the rapidly developing Western worldview dominated by science and its frameworks. By looking at the works and statements of key individuals of the time such as the surrealist André Breton, psychologist Carl Gustav Jung and poet Charles Olson, one gets a clearer picture of the many factors that fueled this divergence.  The most notable being World War I with its atrocities and globalized horrors, the splintering of social groups between capitalism and communism and increased secularization.       In cataloguing the connections between both political and artistic groups it becomes clear how the collective skepticism and questioning of the then dominant worldview led to the eventual creation of an altogether new worldview centered around concepts and ideas not available in old. The development of jazz is seen within this light as a uniquely culturally positioned art form. From more traditional jazz styles to more experimental, jazz is looked at as following a parallel trajectory into a moment of avant-garde synthesis. In looking at the early development of progressive jazz musicians Ornette Coleman, Cecil Taylor and John Coltrane, this thesis aims to cement the 1950s as a hotbed in which an avant-garde aesthetic converged, ultimately resulting in music of the likes of free jazz and beyond.

description: A key predictor of breast cancer prognosis is metastasis (the movement of breast cancer to other tissues/organs): the higher the degree of metastasis, the lower the rate of survival. Because cancer is a consequence of a broad alteration of cell signaling pathways, the ability of cells to metastasize may be due to changes in a limited number of pathways related to invasiveness and metastasis. We believe that a molecular dissection of these pathways may lead to a better understanding of the basis of breast cancer and the role of metastasis in breast cancer, ultimately contributing to diagnosis and treatment of the disease.

 In this project, we will use a very relevant mouse model to investigate the metastatic pathways at a molecular level. One of the mouse mammary tumor lines we have demonstrates 100% metastasis to the lungs. The other exhibits only 9% metastasis to the lungs. By utilizing several powerful gene expression techniques (cDNA microarrays, RT-PCR, suppression subtractive hybridization, tyrosine kinase profiling) studying the molecular differences between these two tumor lines, we may be able to identify key genes involved in the development of metastatic breast cancer. The goal of this project is to gain a clearer understanding of the molecular pathways involved in metastatic breast cancer, ultimately determining clinically relevant predictive gene expression patterns that will guide therapy for the individual patient.

Food allergy presents a significant global health concern with up to 10% of the population affected in developed nations and a steadily increasing prevalence. In many cases, particularly with peanut, tree nut and shellfish, food allergy is a lifelong and potentially life-threatening diagnosis. While no 'cure' for IgE-mediated food allergy exists, oral immunotherapy (OIT) is a promising treatment modality with the peanut OIT drug Palforzia (Aimmune Therapeutics) the only treatment for food allergy that is currently approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration. OIT primarily induces a state of desensitization with only a minority of subjects achieving sustained unresponsiveness, a state of limited clinical remission that appears to be immunologically distinct from natural tolerance. Early humoural changes during OIT include an initial increase in allergen-specific IgE, which eventually decreases to below baseline levels as OIT progresses, and a gradual increase in allergen-specific IgA and IgG4 that continues throughout the course of OIT. Basophil hyporesponsiveness and decreased skin prick test wheal size are observed within the first year of OIT, and persistence after completion of therapy has been associated with sustained unresponsiveness. In the T-cell compartment, there is an initial expansion followed by a decline in the number and activity of T helper 2 (TH 2) cells, the latter of which may be dependent on an expansion of IL-10-producing cells, including regulatory T-cells. Our understanding of the immunomodulatory effects of OIT continues to evolve, with new technologies such as single-cell transcriptional profiling and antibody epitope analysis allowing for more detailed study of T-cell and B-cell responses to OIT. In this review, we present evidence to illustrate what is currently known about the immunologic changes induced by OIT, explore potential mechanisms and emphasize knowledge gaps where future research is needed.
Recommendations in mobile and pervasive business environments

Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2013

description: Advances in mobile technologies have allowed us to collect and process massive amounts of mobile data across many different mobile applications. If properly analyzed, this data can be a source of rich intelligence for providing real-time decision making in various mobile applications and for the provision of mobile recommendations. Indeed, mobile recommendations constitute an especially important class of recommendations because mobile users often find themselves in unfamiliar environments and are often overwhelmed with the "new terrain" abundance of unfamiliar information and uncertain choices. Therefore, it is especially useful to equip them with the tools and methods that will guide them through all these uncertainties by providing useful recommendations while they are "on the move."     In this dissertation, we aim to address the unique challenges of recommendations in mobile and pervasive business environments from both theoretical and practical perspectives. Specifically, we first develop an energy-efficient mobile recommender system which is to recommend a sequence of potential pick-up points for taxi drivers by handling the complex data characteristics of real-world location traces. The developed mobile recommender system can provide effective mobile sequential recommendation and the knowledge extracted from location traces can be used for coaching drivers and lead to the efficient use of energy. The experimentations on real-world spatio-temporal data demonstrate the efficiency and effectiveness of our methods. Moreover, we  introduce a focused study of cost-aware collaborative filtering that is able to address the cost constraint for travel tour recommendation. Specifically, we present two ways to represent user's latent cost preference and different cost-aware collaborative filtering models for travel tour recommendations. We demonstrate that the cost-aware recommendation models can consistently and significantly outperform several existing latent factor models. In addition, we introduce a Tourist-Area-Season Topic (TAST) model. This TAST model can represent travel packages and tourists by different topic distributions, where the topic extraction is conditioned on both the tourists and the intrinsic features (i.e. locations, travel seasons) of the landscapes. Then, based on this topic model representation, we present a cocktail approach to generate the lists for personalized travel package recommendation. When applied to real-world travel tour data, the TAST model can lead to better performances of recommendation. Finally, we introduce the collective training to boost collaborative filtering models. The basic idea is that we compliment the training data for a particular collaborative filtering model with the predictions of other models. And we develop an iterative process to mutually boost each collaborative filtering model iteratively.

description: The purpose of this research is to chronicle the vastly under-documented independent jazz environment that existed within the borough of Brooklyn, the manner in which it developed, and to a lesser extent examine the related social and socio-economic conditions that brought about its development, and those which also came to be as a result of its continuation throughout the years described. This has been done by drawing upon several sources of information, including examination of historical newspapers, published books on jazz and related topics, interviews with primary figures from the Brooklyn jazz scene, and to a lesser extent the author’s own personal recollections from living and playing jazz in the borough. A common misconception when considering the Brooklyn jazz scene is that it was miniscule when compared to that of Manhattan during the years of the music’s most popular, most creative, and most commercially viable period. This research has found that not only was this not the case, but that it is possible that for a number of years the overall scene in Brooklyn was as active as that in Manhattan, and in the case of a particular neighborhood, Bedford-Stuyvesant, the number of jazz venues present there may have even eclipsed that of its Manhattan counterpart, Harlem, and possibly that of the entire island. During the course of this research several items of newly discovered information have been presented, and in other instances the content of previously known information has been expanded upon and collected in this singular location for the first time. Among these are items such as the whereabouts and activity of pioneering early jazz trumpeter Freddie Keppard during the summers of 1919 and 1920, an extensive documentation of the jazz activity and programming tendencies of Brooklyn’s downtown theaters during their most active periods, the Brooklyn origins of the inspiration to Ella Fitzgerald’s hit recording “A Tisket, A Tasket”, the whereabouts and musical activities of many of the important sidemen which contributed to the early Bebop and Rhythm and Blues periods, and a detailed picture of the history and activity of many important Brooklyn jazz clubs, such as Tony’s Grandean, The Continental, The Putnam Central, and Soldier Meyer’s.
A recognition theorem for polynomial growth outer automorphisms of the free group

description: Feighn and Handel’s recognition theorem for Out(F7n) provides invariants that canonically determine any forward rotationless outer automorphism of the free group. We ask to what extent those invariants can be extended to outer automorphisms with some periodic behavior. Many of the same constructions do not have natural analogs, in particular because of the possible lack of principal representatives in this setting. However, by restricting our attention to polynomial growth outer automorphisms and using train track technology, we are able to find a special set of lines in the free group that encode all the dynamical information of these non-forward rotationless maps.

description: Genus Thanatoplagia Alekseev et Bukejs gen. nov.
Type species: Thanatoplagia tamutisi Alekseev et Bukejs sp. nov., designated herein
Taxonomic assignment. The specimen under study belongs to the tribe Sarrotriini based on the combination of the following characters: (1) dorsally concealed antennal insertions; (2) antennae setose, stout, 10- or 11-segmeneted, without clearly separated antennal club; (3) antennal insertions distant from eyes; (4) procoxal cavities open posteriorly; (5) all tarsi tetramerous, not dilated; and (6) metacoxae separated by intercoxal abdominal process rounded apically.
Differential diagnosis. The tribe Sarrotriini includes three extant genera from the Western Palearctic: Diplagia Reitter, 1882, Orthocerus Latreille, 1796, and Helioctamenus Schauffuss (Ślipiński & Schuh 2008). Despite the apparent similarity, we conclude that the studied fossil cannot be attributed to any of these genera, and thus we propose a new genus for this fossil beetle. Thanatoplagia gen. nov. clearly differs from Diplagia in lacking interfacetal setae, but possessing sparsely setose antennae, and pronotum distinctly narrower than elytral base; differs from Orthocerus in antennal structure (gradually widened towards apex, not fusiform, sparsely and shortly setose in the new genus); and it differs from Helioctamenus in having stout and strongly transverse antennomeres 4–9, and pronotum with three distinct impressions (two oval transverse, shallow impressions laterobasally and one large, rounded impression anteromedially). The new fossil genus differs from other similar sarrotriines in a well-developed antennomere 11 (as long as antennomere 10), pronounced humeri and developed metathoracic wings.
Etymology. The name of the new genus is a compound word and combines the old Greek word θάνατος (thánatos, death) and the old Greek word πλαγία (plagía, slope or hillside) referring to Diplagia, the extant genus of the tribe Sarrotriini. The gender is feminine.
Description. The new genus is monotypic. Therefore, the generic description considerably overlaps that of the type species.

description: A fundamental feature of breast cancer is that it occurs far more frequently in women than in men, although men have breast tissue and sometimes get breast cancer. This sex difference appears to be due to the presence in women of high levels of the ovarian steroid hormone estrogen, which acts on the breast to make it susceptible to tumor formation. Our studies will investigate the mechanisms whereby estrogen affects the growth of mammary and uterine tissue and contributes to the development of breast cancer. The understanding that comes from this work will be directly relevant to the design of better antiestrogens for breast cancer prevention that would lack the dangerous side effects on the uterus of current antiestrogens (i.e., tamoxifen).

 To carry out these studies, we will employ genetic means to alter the estrogen receptor, the protein which binds to estrogen, in mice. We will then examine whether the altered estrogen receptors can contribute to the growth of the breast and of the uterus and to estrogen- induced breast cancer in these animals. We hope to learn which of several pathways of estrogen receptor action lead to these effects and to identify targets for breast cancer prevention.

description: A fundamental question in studying embryonic development is to understand the regulation and integration of major developmental events, such as cell proliferation, cell specialization, cell interaction, and cell movement.  Regulation of protein transcription, translation, and signaling during development can be modeled by the developmental gene regulatory network (GRN).  In the sea urchin GRN, the animal-vegetal axis is established by polarized expression or localization of cell-fate determinants, such as beta-catenin nuclear localization in vegetal cells and bep4 expression in animal cells.    Over the last decade, the discovery of small non-coding RNA as an effector of epigenetic, post-transcriptional, and translational regulation has led to reconsideration of the GRN.  In this thesis, we investigated the role of argonaute/piwi and their association with small non-coding RNA in sea urchin development.  We characterized the sea urchin argonaute/piwi proteins, examining their developmental expression profiles, characterizing the proteins present in seawi-associated MT-RNP complexes, and examining the small non-coding RNA populations in eggs, embryos, adult tissues, and MT-RNP complexes.   We show seawi, sea urchin piwi, is expressed in germline lineage and stem cells in development, and seawi predominately associates with piRNA.  Within the seawi-associated population of piRNAs, there are specific sets of piRNA sequences, which are complementary to the mRNA of cell-fate determinants bep4 and beta-catenin.  These results lead to the potential for small non-coding RNA regulation of GRNs in sea urchin development.  We also show that mi- and piRNAs are present in sea urchin sperm.  This suggests that sperm has the ability to provide small non-coding RNAs to regulate embryonic developmental events.  This finding challenges the current theory of sperm serving only as the delivery system for the paternal genome and provides new insight for a novel paternal regulation.

description: UC Solar is a multi-disciplinary research institute made up of faculty and students from nine participating UC campuses—Merced, Berkeley, Santa Barbara, Davis, San Diego, Riverside, Santa Cruz, Irvine and Los Angeles. Headquartered at UC Merced and led by Professor Roland Winston, UC Solar develops technologies that make solar energy systems more efficient, more affordable, and easier to integrate, while educating and developing tomorrow’s solar energy leaders and entrepreneurs. Every generation is faced with new challenges. One of our generation’s greatest challenges is the displacement of fossil fuels with clean, renewable energy. Solar is our most abundant and reliable form of renewable energy, and it has the potential to meet most, if not all, of our energy needs. Each day we increase our ability to convert sunlight into electricity and thermal energy, while lowering the cost of doing so. Has it taken significant effort to get to this point? Yes. Is there still progress that can be made? Yes. Is the day upon us when solar energy systems are as ubiquitous as cell phones and automobiles? Not yet, but that day can be seen on the horizon. But the more we embrace solar energy, the more we understand where the challenges and opportunities for innovation lie. For solar energy to reach its full potential: system costs must continue to decline; the environmental impacts of manufacturing and disposal must be minimized; the effects of intermittency must be reduced; and the impact of large-scale solar resources on the energy grid must be understood. These opportunities form the basis of the UC Solar research agenda, and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future. UC Solar’s value proposition is as follows: bring together the best solar scientists in the UC system to engage with energy stakeholders worldwide and develop solutions that can be brought to the marketplace quickly and integrated seamlessly. The initial MRPI award has encouraged faculty collaboration, enhanced scholarship, and gained the UC worldwide recognition for its solar energy research efforts (see Attachment E). It has also garnered the attention of state and federal agencies that award center-level grant funding, which is the key to the institute’s long term sustainability. A four-year MRPI renewal is requested in the amount of $775k per year ($3.1M total), so that this critical work can continue and the UC can lead the way to a solar energy future for California and the world.

description: Approximately half of the breast cancer cases in the U.S. cannot be explained by familial, menstrual or reproductive factors. Moreover, the established risk factors that have been identified are not easily modifiable. Thus, research to identify lifestyle-related risk factors for breast cancer that are modifiable is a priority.

 There are a number of compounds found in the environment to which humans can be easily exposed that are known to cause both genetic changes and cancer in the breast cells of rodents. These compounds may also play a role in the development of human breast cancer. (The scientific names for the classes of the compounds that we are interested in are: heterocyclic aromatic amines (HAs); polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs); and arylamines. Humans are exposed to these compounds from various environmental sources including diet (e.g., cooked meats) and tobacco smoke. However, for these compounds to exert their cancer-causing effects they have to be chemically transformed (i.e., activated or deactivated). A number of human genes have now been identified and shown to be important in the metabolism of these chemical compounds.

 Due to the difficulty in measuring the part of peoples diet that is affected by cooking conditions (mostly through using questionnaires), the role of PAHs and HAs in the diet has been largely unstudied. Numerous studies have investigated the role of tobacco smoke and breast cancer but the results are not clear. The reason for this might be due to the varying proportions of women in a given study population who possess genes that "turn on" (i.e., metabolically activate) or that "turn off" (metabolically deactivate) this chemical transformation. Thus, the goal for this study is to determine whether the genes involved in the metabolism of these compounds are associated with risk of breast cancer.

 If we can demonstrate that certain genes (called NAT1, NAT2, CYP1A1, GSTM1) involved in the metabolism of HAs (from cooked meats), PAHs (from cooked meats and tobacco smoke) and arylamines (from tobacco smoke) are associated with risk of breast cancer, it will strengthen the argument that these exposures from diet and tobacco are risk factors for breast cancer, help explain how breast cancer is caused, and provide a sound basis for diet and smoking behavior modification.
