Ultrastructure of oligochaete cocoons and polychaete tubes suggest an evolutionary link
Creators: name: Rossi, Anthony M.
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2013

description: Despite divergence of several hundred million years, polychaetes and oligochaetes produce tube-like structures. Specifically, polychaetes secrete protective dwellings and/or brood tubes for reproduction, while oligochaetes secrete egg cases or cocoons. Cocoon secretion in oligochaetes is preceded by hypertrophy of glandular Type-II and Type-III cells in a specialized epithelial region, the clitellum. Histological data from the polychaete Phragmatopoma caifornica identified parapodial cells similar to clitellum Type-II cells that may be responsible for the tube sheath that lines the worm’s “sandcastle” home. Further, tubes and cocoons appear to display similar physical properties. Both remain stable when challenged against thermal extremes of heat and cold, proteases and chaotropic agents. Additionally, ultrastructural aspects of tubes and cocoons appear related. Oligochaete cocoons comprise a fibrous cocoon wall sealed at each end with an operculum (i.e., glue-like plugs). Likewise, the polychaete tube sheath from P. californica comprises fibrous shards similar to that observed in the cocoon secreted by Erpobdella obscura. These observations may suggest that the secretory cells and biomaterials that characterize oligochaete cocoons are transformative, and were derived from an ancestral, tube-dwelling polychaete that acquired the ability to seal the ends of its tube.

description:
Background The infiltration of tumor-infiltrating B cells and plasma cells in early-stage breast cancer has been associated with a reduced risk of distant metastasis. However, the influence of B-cell tumor infiltration on overall patient survival remains unclear. Materials and methods This study explored the relationship between an antitumor immune response, measured by a 14-gene B-cell/immunoglobulin (IGG) signature, and mortality risk in 9638 breast cancer patients across three datasets. Associations with tumor subtype, stage, and age were examined. IGG was characterized using spatial GeoMx profiling and single-cell RNA sequencing, and its relationship with tertiary lymphoid structures (TLSs) was evaluated. The predictive value of each of the 14 IGG genes for B-cell receptor (BCR) and T-cell receptor (TCR) clonality and longevity was also assessed, along with its association with longevity in other cancer types. Results High IGG signature expression was significantly associated with a 41%-47% reduction in death risk in breast cancer survivors (P < 0.001), regardless of age, tumor stage, or subtype. Similar associations were observed in other cancers, including melanoma. In breast cancer, the IGG signature was significantly linked to overall survival without relapse in patients aged 41-70 years at diagnosis. Additionally, IGG expression correlated with the presence of TLSs and higher B- and T-cell polyclonality. A specific subset of seven IGG genes strongly correlated with BCR and TCR clonality, with predictive power for identifying clonality and improved longevity, especially when combining two of these genes. Conclusions This study uncovers a significant link between immune gene expression in tumors and extended longevity in breast cancer survivors, even in the absence of recurrence. The IGG signature, particularly its key gene subset, emerges as a powerful marker of sustained antitumor immunity and overall patient fitness. These findings pave the way for personalized treatment strategies that enhance both survival and long-term health outcomes.

description: Many patients with metastatic breast cancer use Chinese herbal therapy, despite the fact that its effectiveness has yet to be scientifically documented. We have recently shown that an extract of Herba Scutellaria Barbatae (HSB), a Chinese herb traditionally used to treat MBC, inhibits the growth of breast cancer cells in the laboratory. We believe that HSB presents an ideal model for studying Chinese herbal therapy in controlled clinical trials and have obtained permission from the FDA to administer it to women with metastatic breast cancer. The UCSF review board through a process that involves breast cancer advocates has approved our study design. We will also conduct animal studies to determine how HSB is metabolized and distributed within the body.

 We hypothesize that HSB can be safely given to women with metastatic breast cancer and studied by controlled clinical trials in the same scientific manner as other Western-style drugs. The HSB trial has been designed to gather safety data, as well as preliminary measures of tumor growth. Subjects will be 25 patients with metastatic breast cancer, who will drink a tea containing HSB as their only cancer therapy for 1 year or until there is progression of cancer. Patients’ cancer will be evaluated at the beginning of the study and thereafter at 3-month intervals by both physical examination and X-ray scans; side effects will be monitored monthly. Standard statistical measures will be used to analyze the data in regards to safety, toxicity, anti-tumor activity and quality of life. Laboratory techniques will be used to evaluate how HSB is stored and distributed in the body. Breast cancer advocates are involved in the review and design of all breast cancer-related clinical trials at UCSF and also have developed an education and outreach plan for clinical trial participation at UCSF. Much support has been shown in this general area of study.

 This study presents an innovative design for studying alternative therapies for breast cancer, such as Chinese herbal therapy, using scientifically rigorous clinical trials. It will provide women who use Chinese herbal therapy accurate information about the safety and effectiveness of this particular herbal compound. Our work can serve as a model to other investigators interested in studying alternative therapies in a scientifically-controlled environment. However, the ultimate benefit will be for patients, who will be able to make the same informed decisions about alternative therapies as they can about conventional pharmaceutical agents. This study can serve as a model for future trials that may identify other herbal agents that could be beneficial in treating advanced breast cancer.

description: Man Cave is a novel about the façades that men construct in order to escape their lives. Pete, a suburban professional with a family, is desperately trying to construct a “man cave,” a getaway in his basement where he can cool off from the pressures of modern life. Andy, a disturbed, alcoholic carpenter, is obsessed with knives and has built an underground home in the forest behind Pete’s house. When they meet, each man’s strengths covers the other’s deficiencies, but only for so long. Eventually, even the most carefully built façade crumbles.

description: Public awareness has heightened in recent years concerning the degradation in water quality and recreational potential of many of the lakes, ponds, and reservoirs of New Jersey. The observed deterioration of water quality and its ramifications are accelerated by cultural factors. Although the eutrophication of a lake is a slow natural process - one which proceeds gradually over thousands of years, it may be accelerated by human activity. Watershed urbanization, the discharge of insufficiently treated sewage and septage, soil erosion, and the application of fertilizers all increase the nutrient load entering the receiving water body. Consequently, increased nutrient loads stimulate productivity and accelerate the eutrophication process. The fact that a lake is aging (eutrophic) is realized when symptoms such as taste and odor problems, algal blooms, nuisance growths of aquatic plants, oxygen depletion, the accumulation of organic sediments and fish kills are observed. It is at this point that a call for the improvement or restoration of the affected water body is publicly voiced. Recognizing the need to assist the local governments in managing their lakes, the Department's Lake Management Program was initiated in 19&5. The development of a statewide inventory was followed shortly thereafter by water chemistry sampling at over 450 lakes. Approximately 30% of New Jersey's lakes were presumed to be eutrophic based on field observations and limited water chemistry data. Final determination of trophic state and the development of management plans, however, necessitated more extensive chemical sampling and analyses.

description: Estrogens are a class of hormones critical to female sexual development and functioning, but, paradoxically, strong evidence links them with the induction of breast cancer. Precisely which estrogen is responsible is unknown, but high levels of 16a-hydroxyestrone (16a-OHE), a metabolite of the estrogen estradiol, are strongly correlated with the susceptibility to and presence of breast cancer in human and animals. Additional evidence suggests that certain dietary and environmental factors may alter estrogen production or metabolism and thereby function as "xenoestrogens." Xenoestrogens are broadly defined as substances that alter normal estrogen homeostasis (regulation) and function. For example, dietary substances found in cruciferous vegetables, e.g., broccoli or cauliflower, lower the effective levels of 16a-OHE and decrease mammary tumor incidence by inducing competing metabolic pathways. On the other hand, ethanol is thought to increase tumor formation by enhancing metabolic pathways that form 16a-OHE. Definitive studies showing the relationship between 16a-OHE levels, enzyme induction or inhibition, and xenoestrogen exposure have not been conducted and are the subject of this proposal. These studies will define the relative ability of estradiol and its metabolites (e.g.,16a-OHE) to alter genetic material and will examine how xenoestrogens influence the formation of these genotoxic compounds by altering the metabolic pathways leading to their formation. This knowledge may ultimately lead to effective methods for identifying susceptible populations, detecting early stages of breast cancer, reducing preventable causes of breast cancer, and designing chemicals that will help prevent development of breast cancer. We will address two priority issues of the Breast Cancer ResearchProgram: the role of genotoxic agents in the origin of breast cancer, and early detection of breast cancer.

 We hypothesize that 16a-OHE may initiate tumor formation by interacting directly with proteins and DNA, thereby leading to chromosomal breakage or loss. Furthermore, since the metabolism of estradiol to 16a-OHE is dependent upon xenoestrogen-inducible metabolic enzyme systems, we also hypothesize that the formation of this metabolite may be affected by xenoestrogens. Specifically, we will study the chromosome-damaging effects of estradiol and its metabolites, investigate covalent binding of estradiol and its metabolites to large molecules both in cell cultures and in breast tissue of animals with varying susceptibilities to breast cancer, study the effect of selected xenoestrogens on the profile of covalent binding, and examine how xenoestrogens alter estradiol metabolism and estradiol-induced genetic damage.

Hybrid Grid-Detector to Improve Early Detection Imaging

description: The early detection of breast cancer is presently the single most important factor in terms of improving the prognosis of individuals stricken with the disease. Screen-film mammography is currently the best technology for discovering early breast cancer. However, it is widely recognized that significant improvements can be made to conventional screen-film detectors, and such improvements can lead to even earlier detection of breast cancer. A Hybrid Grid Detector is the topic of this research. This system is designed to specifically improve the detectability of breast cancer. The hybrid grid detector should allow physicians to visualize breast cancer at an earlier phase of development, which will improve treatment prognosis and reduce mortality.

 The current generation of x-ray sensors, including the conventional screen-film cassette presently used for mammography, use a two-step process for x-ray detection. First, an x ray is absorbed in an x-ray phosphor, which emits visible light after the x ray is absorbed. Second, the visible light is detected by a sensor that is light sensitive, for example, film. Newer, digital sensors such as Charge Coupled Devices (CCDs) can also be used as the light sensor for digital mammography. Coupling the x-ray phosphor with a CCD sensor, however, leads to loss of light because of the optics needed (e.g., lenses). The proposed hybrid grid detector design should markedly increase the amount of light released by the x-ray phosphor, improving spatial and contrast resolution. Spatial resolution is the ability to see very small objects, such as the micro-calcifications that are present in about 40% of breast cancers. Contrast resolution is the ability to see objects that have subtle contrast, such as the breast tumor itself. The research plan involves computer simulations of the system, construction of the detectors, and evaluation of their performance in the laboratory. The hybrid detector is constructed of a very fine (0.05 mm) honeycomb of leaded glass, with the pores packed with x-ray phosphor. A special fluid will fill the rest of the pore, allowing efficient light propagation. The glass partitions will also absorb unwanted scattered x-ray radiation. The pores will conduct light without lateral spreading to improve spatial resolution. By increasing the light output, reducing x-ray scatter, and enhancing the spatial resolution, the contrast resolution will be improved.

 The hybrid grid detector should lead to a significant advance in imaging performance, with concomitant gains in the early breast cancer detection capability of mammography.

Mapping regulatory DNA that governs Drosophila eggshell patterning
Creators: name: Pope, Nicole
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied

description: Organogenesis relies on extensive tissue patterning by regulating the expression of genes in a  spatiotemporal manner. During oogenesis, the follicle cells, a monolayer of epithelial cells surrounding  the developing oocyte, are patterned to drive the formation of the Drosophila eggshell; an organ  that shelters the developing embryo. While follicle cells’ patterning has been vastly documented, the  regulatory domains that govern tissue patterning are mostly unknown. To find regulatory domains, we  cross-listed 81 genes known to be expressed during oogenesis with the large collection of the Gerald M. Rubin (GMR) lines containing noncoding DNA fragments, and we found 19 common genes. These genes are represented by 223 GMR lines. Of great advantage, all GMR lines are driving the expression of a GAL4 thus providing an opportunity to screen these lines by crossing them to a GFP reporter gene. Of the tested GMR lines, 55 lines, (25%), express GFP during oogenesis, and 18 lines (33%), recapitulate the partial or full endogenous pattern of their corresponding genes. We found that regulatory information is enriched in certain positions of the genes’ locus. We also demonstrated the use of the new driver lines to disrupt morphologies of the eggshell and other tissues. Our comprehensive screen identified multiple regulatory DNA fragments that govern eggshell patterning.

The effect of category adjustment model (CAM) on the stimulusestimation
Creators: name: Noh, Suyeon
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied

description: Studies on the category adjustment often use sequential stimulus estimation tasks are in which people see a target stimulus then must reproduce its size using an adjustable response stimulus. Two empirical questions remain regarding methodological considerations in such tasks. In this study, the starting length and velocity of response stimulus as well as the time interval between target presentation and response are investigated. We found that velocity and response delay affect estimates but starting size does not.
Ciliate xenomas in Crassostrea virginica from Great Bay, New Hampshire

description: During routine histological examination of oysters (Crassostrea virginica) from Great Bay, New Hampshire, a high prevalence and intensity of ciliate xenomas has been noted since 199&. Xenomas are hypertrophic lesions on the gills of bivalve molluscs caused by ciliates. Although not known to cause mortality in oysters, xenomas have not previously been reported at this high level of abundance. The objectives of this study were to characterize the xenomas, classify the ciliates, and gather baseline epizootiological data with correlations to environmental and biological parameters.   Upon gross examination, xenomas appeared as white nodules located in the gill tissue, up to 3 mm in diameter, occasionally fusing into large masses along the gill filaments. Light microscopy of histological sections revealed xenomas located in the gill water tubes that often occupied the entire cross sectional area. Higher magnification revealed dual nuclei, eight kineties, and conjugation. Transmission electron microscopy revealed dual nuclei that vary in density, a maximum of twenty cilia in each kinety radiating from the oral apparatus to the posterior, and a 9+2 axoneme structure within the cilia. Sequencing of the 18S rRNA gene produced a unique sequence not present in GenBank. These oyster gill ciliates are generally listed as Sphenophrya dosiniae (Order Rhynchodida) and although there are no representatives of Rhynchodida in GenBank’s database, all similar matches were within the class Phyllopharyngea. Since 199&, xenoma prevalence has fluctuated with peaks in 2000, 2004, and 2011. Infected oysters generally contained <30 xenomas, but 2.1% contained >100, sharply contrasting the rare prevalence and low intensity reported elsewhere. Prevalence increased with oyster size, leveling off near 50% in oysters >60mm. Infection intensity peaked in &0-90mm oysters. Individually, oyster condition was not associated with xenoma intensity, but sites with oysters in higher condition generally had a greater prevalence and intensity of xenoma infections. Seasonal data indicated an infection cycle increasing from summer to fall, peaking at 55-65% in November and dropping to <10% by spring. The oyster population at Great Bay, NH warrants further examination to understand the mechanisms and conditions controlling xenoma formation, as well as the possible effects of a changing climate.

description:
The natural, built, and social environments shape drinking water quality supplied by private wells. However, the combined effects of these factors are not well understood. Using North Carolina as a case study, we (i) estimate the demographic characteristics of the private well population; (ii) evaluate representation in well testing records; and (iii) demonstrate how spatial scale influences knowledge of well-using household demographics and representation in testing. We leverage a statewide database of 117,960 well testing records collected over 20 years and a national model predicting well locations. An estimated 25% well-using households identify as Black, Indigenous, and Persons of Color (BIPOC) and 15% have incomes below the poverty threshold. While there is robust well sampling (an average of 4,269 wells tested annually), we observed that most testing records were from predominately White block groups (BGs). Well-using households that did not participate in state testing were 2.4 times more likely to be from predominately BIPOC BGs compared predominately White BGs. Due to the spatial heterogeneity of the well population, demographic differences in well populations were more evident using higher resolution data. Multifaceted testing approaches that couple government-driven efforts with localized studies that engage underrepresented communities are needed to facilitate evidence-based management.
Comparing negative patterning and biconditional discrimination in a simulated foraging task

description: How humans solve patterning and biconditional discrimination is a topic of continued theoretical debate. Some theories assume that solving negative patterning of A+, B+, AB0 is contingent upon learning to associate outcomes with individual stimuli, whereas others assume the addition of a unique configuration of the compound is needed to solve it. Research in humans has found evidence to support both theories. However, a problem with human associative learning experiments is the use of arbitrary reinforcement stimuli, which may cause humans to use rule-based learning rather than associative learning. This paper reports a study of patterning and biconditional discrimination that uses a novel simulated foraging task in which all trials involve stimulus compounds to provide a clearer test of the competing theories.

Taste
Creators: name: Licorish, Elizabeth
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2013

description: This thesis manuscript is the beginning of a book-length project by the same title. Taste is a memoir, dedicated to the exploration of the author’s life through a deep fixation with family dysfunction, mental illness, body image, and food. The narrative begins with the author’s childhood experience of taste, texture, and the insatiable desire to eat, tempered by an awareness of her own developing body, her family’s history with morbid obesity, her mother’s militant avoidance of “junk” food, and her father’s inability to feed his children in the aftermath of an especially vengeful divorce. The narrative follows the author’s bout with anorexia, spurred by a desire to improve a competitive figure skating career with the increased speed and rotation that inevitably follows dramatic weight loss. Once the author is hospitalized in her first eating disorders unit, she discovers the warped world of chronic eating disorder patients, women whose lives revolve around a psychological diagnosis that traps the food-obsessed for the rest of their lives. Out of the hospital, the author’s violent addiction to binge eating, anorexia, and bulimia intensifies and, during the following decade, her weight fluctuates 100 pounds, sometimes rendering her bloated and unrecognizable, other times reducing her to a 58-pound death wish. When the author wakes up one morning to discover she’s mysteriously lost her sense of taste, a life-long infatuation with food is thrown into the fire, but she’ll do anything to recapture the love of her life.
Predicting genetic interactions in the human genome
Creators: name: Kawash, Joseph
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2013

description: Genetic interaction and synthetic lethality are important tools that can be utilized to study the organization of a species genome. However genetic interaction information for mammalian and in particular human genomes is lacking when compared to other model organisms. This lack of information may be attributed to the difficulty and unreliability that seems to persist in acquiring information on genetic interactions from human cell lines. One method of resolving this problem is to use conserved genetic interactions identified in model organisms that can be extrapolated into the context of the mammalian genome. In this study, a survey is performed of genetic interaction networks from such model organisms including Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Drosophila melanogaster, and Caenorhabditis elegans to test the ability of predicting genetic interactions in mammalian genomes. Additional information supporting genetic interactions, from protein interaction datasets as well as human homologs, is used to reinforce the confidence in found potential interacting gene pairs. Using orthologous human gene identifiers, networks are overlaid in order to identify potentially conserved interactions for the purpose of identifying interacting genetic pairs in the mammalian genome. The common interactors are scored based on the model organism from which they were identified as well as their prevalence across different networks and supplemented through identification of homologous genes and human protein interactions. We find that there exist interacting gene pairs that are conserved between model organisms as well as human protein interactions. These interactions are verified using experimental information available from the literature to validate a subset of these findings.
Pre-Biblical and Old Testament rape law parallels
Creators: name: Jones, Jake J.
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2013

description: Rape legislation in ancient Near Eastern texts is very slanted in respect to a pervasive androcentric ideology that drives the punitive outcomes. Unfortunately, evidence shows the lives of women in terms of their perceived societal value are affected  (often negatively) in regard to their social status;  regardless of region or period. Women did not wield much social power in  ancient times and the laws demonstrate resolutions for prescribed transgressions that neglected to include any consideration for the viewpoint of women; who were the primary victims of the rape offense.     As a result, women suffered and were historically antagonized by the these laws which failed to protect them. This research will illuminate the disparities by examining the laws in various regions of the period and challenge the underlying themes.

description: In the eighteenth century, women masquerading as men joined the military and these female warriors were represented in every type of popular literature.  The right intersection of geopolitical and social conditions occurred allowing female warriors to flourish in literature, and by examining these conditions and utilizing the contemporary gender theories of female masculinity and performativity, for the first time we can holistically understand the reasons these women became popular cultural icons, and how they have impacted female warriors of today.
