Art Therapy For Trauma Survivors, Mercedes Ter Maat

Faculty Proceedings, Presentations, Speeches and Lectures

Interested in incorporating art-making into your clinical practice with trauma survivors? This presentation addresses the power of art in recalling the traumatic event and accessing trauma-related emotions in a non-threatening way. Learn how art assists trauma survivors in identifying, expressing, and containing emotions by engaging in a process that creates a safe distance from painful feelings while providing a concrete vehicle to explore potentially volatile emotions. Artwork will be shown to illustrate this process.

Connecting The Molecular Function Of Micrornas To Cell Differentiation Dynamics., Russell Posner, Reinhard Laubenbacher

Faculty Research 2019

MicroRNAs form a class of short, non-coding RNA molecules which are essential for proper development in tissue-based plants and animals. To help explain their role in gene regulation, a number of mathematical and computational studies have demonstrated the potential canalizing effects of microRNAs. However, such studies have typically focused on the effects of microRNAs on only one or a few target genes. Consequently, it remains unclear how these small-scale effects add up to the experimentally observed developmental outcomes resulting from microRNA perturbation at the whole-genome level. To answer this question, we built a general computational model of cell differentiation to …

Effects Of Dabigatran In Mouse Models Of Aging And Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy, Neethu Michael, Mher Mahoney Grigoryan, Kelley Kilday, Rachita K. Sumbria, Vitaly Vasilevko, Joanne Van Ryn, David H. Cribbs, Annlia Paganini-Hill, Mark J. Fisher

Pharmacy Faculty Articles and Research

Oral anticoagulants are a critical component of stroke prevention, but carry a risk of brain hemorrhage. These hemorrhagic complications tend to occur in elderly individuals, especially those with predisposing conditions such as cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA). Clinical evidence suggests that non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants are safer than traditional oral anticoagulants. We analyzed whether the anticoagulant dabigatran produces cerebral microhemorrhage (the pathological substrate of MRI-demonstrable cerebral microbleeds) or intracerebral hemorrhage in aged mice with and without hemorrhage-predisposing angiopathy. We studied aged (22 months old) Tg2576 (a model of CAA) and wild-type (WT) littermate mice. Mice received either dabigatran etexilate (DE) …

Connective Tissue Fibroblasts From Highly Regenerative Mammals Are Refractory To Ros-Induced Cellular Senescence, Sandeep Saxena, Hemendra J. Vekaria, Patrick G. Sullivan, Ashley W. Seifert

Biology Faculty Publications

A surveillance system in mammals constantly monitors cell activity to protect against aberrant proliferation in response to damage, injury and oncogenic stress. Here we isolate and culture connective tissue fibroblasts from highly regenerative mammals (Acomys and Oryctolagus) to determine how these cells interpret signals that normally induce cellular senescence in non-regenerating mammals (Mus and Rattus). While H₂O₂ exposure substantially decreases cell proliferation and increases p53, p21, p16, and p19 in cells from mice and rats, cells from spiny mice and rabbits are highly resistant to H₂O₂. Quantifying oxygen consumption …

Age At Menarche, Measures Of The Midlife Gut Microbiome, And Cardiovascular Risk Factors, Yan Wang

Theses and Dissertations

Introduction Early menarche has been associated with greater risks of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and CVD-related mortality but the mechanisms remain unclear. We hypothesized that early menarche and CVD may share as a common cause, changes in the natural history of the gut microbiome. Methods We obtained data on 2,400 adult female twins from the TwinsUK registry. Participants reported their age at menarche retrospectively and underwent anthropometric and clinical laboratory measures in 1992-2014. They provided fecal samples in 2007-2012. Microbial DNA sequences represent the V4 region of the 16S rRNA gene. OTU-picking was done using open-reference strategy in QIIME and the …

New Insights Into Prime Southern Ocean Forage Grounds For Thriving Western Australian Humpback Whales, Sophie Bestley, Virginia Andrews-Goff, Esmee Van Wijk, Stephen R. Rintoul, Michael Double, Jason How

Fisheries Research Articles

Humpback whale populations migrate extensively between winter breeding grounds and summer feeding grounds, however known links to remote Antarctic feeding grounds remain limited in many cases. New satellite tracks detail humpback whale migration pathways from Western Australia into the Southern Ocean. These highlight a focal feeding area during austral spring and early summer at the southern Kerguelen plateau, in a western boundary current where a sharp northward turn and retroflection of ocean fronts occurs along the eastern plateau edge. The topographic steering of oceanographic features here likely supports a predictable, productive and persistent forage ground. The spatial distribution of whaling …

Bright Green Biofluorescence In Sharks Derives From Bromo-Kynurenine Metabolism, Hyun Bong Park, Yick Chong Lam, Jean P. Gaffney, James C. Weaver, Sara Rose Krivoshik, Randy Hamchand, Vincent Pieribone, David F. Gruber, Jason M. Crawford

Publications and Research

Although in recent years there has been an increased awareness of the widespread nature of biofluorescence in the marine environment, the diversity of the molecules responsible for this luminescent phenotype has been mostly limited to green fluorescent proteins (GFPs), GFP-like proteins, and fluorescent fatty acid-binding proteins (FABPs). In the present study, we describe a previously undescribed group of brominated tryptophan-kynurenine small molecule metabolites responsible for the green biofluorescence in two species of sharks and provide their structural, antimicrobial, and spectral characterization. Multi-scale fluorescence microscopy studies guided the discovery of metabolites that were differentially produced in fluorescent versus non-fluorescent skin, as …

Glucosamine Hcl-Based Solid Dispersions To Enhance The Biopharmaceutical Properties Of Acyclovir, Darshan R. Telange, Snehal B. Bhagat, Arun T. Patil, Milind J. Umekar, Anil M. Pethe, Nishikant Raut, Vivek S. Dave

Pharmacy Faculty/Staff Publications

The objective of the work presented here was to assess the feasibility of using glucosamine HCl as a solid-dispersion (SD) carrier to enhance the biopharmaceutical properties of a BCS class III/IV drug, acyclovir (ACV). The solid-dispersions of acyclovir and glucosamine HCl were prepared by an ethanol-based solvent evaporation method. The prepared formulations characterized by photomicroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), Fourier transforms infrared spectrophotometry (FTIR), powder x-ray diffractometry (PXRD) and drug content analysis. The functional characterization of ACV-SD was performed by aqueous solubility evaluation, dissolution studies, fasted versus fed state dissolution comparison, ex vivo permeability, and stability …

Gully Erosion And Holocene-Anthropocene Environmental Change In Southern New England, Megan Hill

Doctoral Dissertations

The proposed Anthropocene epoch provides a novel framework for recognizing, measuring, and interpreting human impacts to landscapes around the world. Important also, is the need to place human impacts in the context of how these landscapes have been behaving over recent geologic time (i.e., the Late Pleistocene and Holocene). In southern New England, widespread Anthropocene landscape changes occurred throughout 17^th-20^th century following European settlement. Markers of these Anthropocene landscape changes are visible in high-resolution topographic data in the form of historic land use features (e.g., stone walls and charcoal hearths), in gullies that dissect hillslopes, and in …
