Biochemical And Anti-Triple Negative Metastatic Breast Tumor Cell Properties Of Psammaplins, Yu-Dong Zhou, Jun Li, Lin Du, Fakhri Mahdi, Thuy P. Le, Wei-Lun Chen, Steven M. Swanson, Kounosuke Watabe, Dale G. Nagle Nov 2018

Biochemical And Anti-Triple Negative Metastatic Breast Tumor Cell Properties Of Psammaplins, Yu-Dong Zhou, Jun Li, Lin Du, Fakhri Mahdi, Thuy P. Le, Wei-Lun Chen, Steven M. Swanson, Kounosuke Watabe, Dale G. Nagle

Faculty and Student Publications (Open Access)

Breast tumors reprogram their cellular metabolism, nutrient uptake, and utilization-associated biochemical processes. These processes become further transformed as genetically predisposed metastatic breast tumor cells colonize specific organs. Breast tumor cells often metastasize to the brain, bone, lung and liver. Massagué and colleagues isolated organotropic subclones and established organ-specific gene signatures associated with lung-, bone-, and brain-specific metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) MDA-MB-231 cells. Using these genetically characterized metastatic subclones specific to lung (LM4175), bone (BoM1833), and brain (BrM-2a), we evaluated marine natural products for the ability to differentially suppress metastatic breast cancer cells in a target organ-dependent manner. Psammaplin-based histone …

Oral History Project (all interviews)

Dora Rivas has dedicated more than thirty-five years of service to child nutrition and related programs. A Texas native, she grew up in the small town of Los Fresnos and attended collage at Texas A & I University (now Texas A & M) where she received a degree in nutrition and dietetics. She first entered the field of school nutrition in 1977 as a school dietitian and eventually promoted to Assistant School Director and then School Director in Brownsville, Texas. In 2005, she moved to Dallas, Texas to work as the Executive Director in the Dallas Independent School District until …

Biochemical And Functional Characterization Of Anthocyanidin Reductase (Anr) From Mangifera Indica L., Lin Tan, Mei Wang, Youfa Kang, Farrukh Azeem, Zhaoxi Zhou, Decai Tuo, Lina María Preciado Rojo, Ikhlas A. Khan, Zhiqiang Pan Nov 2018

Biochemical And Functional Characterization Of Anthocyanidin Reductase (Anr) From Mangifera Indica L., Lin Tan, Mei Wang, Youfa Kang, Farrukh Azeem, Zhaoxi Zhou, Decai Tuo, Lina María Preciado Rojo, Ikhlas A. Khan, Zhiqiang Pan

Faculty and Student Publications (Open Access)

Mango (Mangifera indica L.) is abundant in proanthocyanidins (PAs) that are important for human health and plant response to abiotic stresses. However, the molecular mechanisms involved in PA biosynthesis still need to be elucidated. Anthocyanidin reductase (ANR) catalyzes a key step in PA biosynthesis. In this study, three ANR cDNAs (MiANR1-1,1-2,1-3) were isolated from mango, and expressed in Escherichia coli. In vitro enzyme assay showed MiANR proteins convert cyanidin to their corresponding flavan-3-ols, such as (−)-catechin and (−)-epicatechin. Despite high amino acid similarity, the recombinant ANR proteins exhibited differences in enzyme kinetics and cosubstrate preference. MiANR1-2 and MiANR1-3 have the …


Anti-Leishmanial And Cytotoxic Activities Of A Series Of Maleimides: Synthesis, Biological Evaluation And Structure-Activity Relationship, Yongxian Fan, Yuele Lu, Xiaolong Chen, Babu Tekwani, Xing-Cong Li, Yinchu Shen Nov 2018

Anti-Leishmanial And Cytotoxic Activities Of A Series Of Maleimides: Synthesis, Biological Evaluation And Structure-Activity Relationship, Yongxian Fan, Yuele Lu, Xiaolong Chen, Babu Tekwani, Xing-Cong Li, Yinchu Shen

Faculty and Student Publications (Open Access)

In the present study, 45 maleimides have been synthesized and evaluated for anti-leishmanial activities against L. donovani in vitro and cytotoxicity toward THP1 cells. All compounds exhibited obvious anti-leishmanial activities. Among the tested compounds, there were 10 maleimides with superior anti-leishmanial activities to standard drug amphotericin B, and 32 maleimides with superior anti-leishmanial activities to standard drug pentamidine, especially compounds 16 (IC50 < 0.0128 μg/mL) and 42 (IC50 < 0.0128 μg/mL), which showed extraordinary efficacy in an in vitro test and low cytotoxicities (CC50 > 10 μg/mL). The anti-leishmanial activities of 16 and 42 were 10 times better than that of amphotericin B. The structure and activity relationship (SAR) studies revealed that 3,4-non-substituted maleimides displayed the strongest anti-leishmanial activities compared to those for …

The Economic Impact Of Potential Closures Of Rural Hospitals In Mississippi, M. Maya Mcdoom, Cyril Chang, John Gnuschke Nov 2018

The Economic Impact Of Potential Closures Of Rural Hospitals In Mississippi, M. Maya Mcdoom, Cyril Chang, John Gnuschke

Delta Directions: Publications

Rural hospitals across the nation are facing a crisis due to ever-changing economic, policy, and population factors. To better understand how the present economic climate and policies are impacting rural hospitals in Mississippi, this report provides a comprehensive assessment of the: health and economic characteristics of hospitals and the communities they serve, factors that impact hospital viability, economic impacts of the “most at-risk” hospitals in Mississippi, and potential innovations and policy considerations to address the challenges facing rural Mississippi hospitals.


Improving Mental Health And Substance Abuse Treatment In Juvenile Detention Facilities, Harvard Law School Mississippi Delta Project Nov 2018

Improving Mental Health And Substance Abuse Treatment In Juvenile Detention Facilities, Harvard Law School Mississippi Delta Project

Delta Directions: Publications

Mental health and substance abuse treatment services are an essential component of a well-functioning rehabilitative juvenile justice system. These services are especially important in juvenile detention facilities, which contain a disproportionate number of juveniles suffering from mental illness due to the association between such issues and delinquency and the relative lack of services in the community.
