Targeting Pediatric Glioblastomas By Combining Olig2 Inhibitor Ct-179 With Fractionated Radiation In A Panel Of Patient-Derived Orthotopic Xenograft Mouse Models., Holly Lindsay, Yuchen Du, Lin Qi, Huiyuan Zhang, Sibo Zhao, Frank K Braun, Mari Kogiso, Clifford Stephan, Gordon Alton, Gregory Stein, Graham Beaton, Santosh Kesari, Steven Neuhauser, Timothy M Stearns, Jeffrey Chuang, Emily L Jocoy, Carol J Bult, Beverly Teicher, Malcolm A Smith, Xiao-Nan Li

Faculty Research 2026

The poor clinical outcomes of pediatric high-grade glioma (pHGG) highlight the urgent need for new therapies. Oligodendrocyte lineage transcription factor 2 (OLIG2) is a pro-mitotic transcription factor highly expressed in glioma stem cells and may represent a novel therapeutic target. To evaluate the therapeutic efficacy of an OLIG2 inhibitor CT-179 in pHGG, we determined the OLIG2 mRNA expression in 10 patient-derived orthotopic xenograft (PDOX) models. In vitro activities of CT-179 were analyzed in monolayer and neurosphere cells (0–10 µM) with and without radiation (XRT) (0–8 Gy), brain penetration was evaluated in tumor-bearing PDOX mice, and in vivo efficacy was determined …

Passed Down Like Prayer: The Burden And Inheritance Of The Superwoman Schema, Keyishi Shante Peters

Tennessee State University Alumni Theses and Dissertations

This qualitative phenomenological study examined how Black Baby Boomer and Millennial women perceive and internalize the Superwoman Schema (SWS), a cultural expectation emphasizing strength, emotional restraint, and self-sacrifice. Grounded in Black feminist thought, the analysis explored how the SWS is passed down like prayer, quietly inherited, spiritually charged, and embedded in the everyday practices of survival. Four themes emerged: Being Everything to Everybody, Carrying It All Until It Breaks You, We Were Taught Not to Say No, and Learning to Put the Cape Down. Baby Boomers often described the SWS as a necessary legacy forged through historical struggle, while Millennials …

Seeing Beyond The Words: What Interdisciplinary Methodologies Reveal About International Law, Matthew S. Erie, Mark Pollack, Wolfgang Alschner, Beth Simmons, Katerina Linos

Scholarly Articles in Law Reviews & Journals

INTRODUCTION: On April 24, 2025, the International Law and Social Science Interest Group debuted at the ASIL Annual Meeting with a panel that posed a deceptively simple question: how can social science tools advance the work of international lawyers? Chaired by Chantal Thomas, the session brought together Matthew Erie, Wolfgang Alschner, Beth Simmons, and Katerina Linos— scholars who bridge doctrinal and empirical inquiry—to show how ethnography, computational text analysis, counterfactual inference, and mixed-method design can illuminate legal puzzles that doctrine alone cannot solve. The four short essays in this symposium provide parallel illustrations of this core theme: Erie’s ethnographic approach …

On The Need Of Pluralism And Common Ground In Sla, Simona Pekarek Doehler, Steven L. Thorne, Soren W. Eskildsen, Marije C. Michel

World Languages and Literatures Faculty Publications and Presentations

Hyperbolic claims that SLA is in crisis (!), that a unifying theory is overdue, or that research must be oriented toward pedagogy have resurfaced once again—most recently in the response by Lantolf et al. (2025) to the Special Issue on Synergies in Second Language Acquisition and Teaching (SLA/T) (Atkinson et al., 2025). Our own position is diametrically opposed to such claims.

Theoretical And Conceptual Approaches To Journalism Education, August E. Grant, Jeffrey S. Wilkinson, G. Nathan Carnes

Faculty Publications

Many journalism programs embrace the teaching hospital model because of its practical approach, employing working journalists as journalism educators. However, critics contend a more conceptual model of journalism education is needed. This essay explores the literature on journalism education models and seeks to integrate the teaching hospital and entrepreneurial journalism approaches with the revised Bloom's Taxonomy and Fink's Taxonomy of Significant Learning. Combined, these models provide a solid theoretical foundation for practical, applied journalism education. This essay applies these four models to journalism education, yielding a matrix of dimensions that can guide the creation or modification of curricula as well …

On The Legal-Theoretical Foundations Of Property Taxation Under State Ownership Of Land, Tianke Ban, Yilin Hou, Ping Zhang

Center for Policy Research

The general public and even some scholars challenge the legitimacy of levying the property tax under conditions where land is state-owned and multi-year land-use fees have already been collected at the time of house sales. This challenge points to the legal- theoretical foundations of property taxation: the core issue is whether the rights and economic utility of China's construction land-use-rights (CLUR) are sufficient to be treated as the object of property tax levy. China's Civil Law stipulates that CLUR holders have the rights to possess, use, and profit from the land during their use period, as well as the right …

Owing to their immunoprotective properties, natural killer (NK) cells are critical for the innate immune response to pathogens, as well as a new wave of cancer immunotherapy that harnesses natural cytotoxicity. We sought to study the genetic and epigenetic drivers behind human-specific NK cell receptors, so that we can better understand the underlying cellular function. Here, we present a transcriptomic, proteomic (CITE-seq), and chromatin (single nuclei ATAC-seq) profiling of human peripheral NK cell subsets, which was then compared with genomic databases. Through integrative multi-omics, we demonstrate that CD56^bright versus CD56^dim NK cell subsets have differential distal regulatory element …

Competitive Advantage Strategies For Independent Restaurant Owners, Bobby Mccrary

Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies

Independent restaurant owners often face challenges in achieving a sustainable competitive advantage, resulting in poor business performance and loss of profitability. Identifying practical competitive advantage strategies is essential for independent restaurant owners to surpass five years of business operations. Grounded in resource-based view theory, the purpose of this multiple case study was to explore effective competitive advantage strategies independent restaurant owners used to sustain operations beyond five years. Purposeful sampling was used to select four independent restaurant owners located in Wichita, Kansas, who sustained operations beyond five years through competitive advantage strategies. Data were collected from semistructured interviews and from …

Doctrinal Intent Versus Institutional Reality: The Gulf Countries' Antitrust Objectives, Nora Memeti

Yearbook of Antitrust and Regulatory Studies

This paper examines the intriguing contrast between the ambitious goals of antitrust laws in the Gulf countries and the reality of their enforcement. While this region seeks to protect competition and curb monopolistic practices, only Kuwait and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) have made significant strides in achieving these ideals.

Through a comparative legal analysis, this paper examines how the statutory objectives of competition law in Qatar, Bahrain, Oman, and the UAE often remain more rhetorical than substantive, with enforcement primarily symbolic. In contrast, Saudi Arabia demonstrates some enforcement activity, although its alignment with legislative objectives remains uncertain. Kuwait's …

Ubiquitination Of Oncogenic Mutant P53 Via Attenuation Of Ribosome Biogenesis Machinery Effectively Inhibits Pancreatic Tumor Growth, Mudassier Ahmad, Sahir Sultan Alvi, Haider Ahsan, Carlos Perez, Andrew Massey, Vivek K Kashyap, Neeraj Chauhan, Emmanuel Anning, Manish K Tripathi, Dae J Kim, Nirakar Sahoo, Tamer Oraby, Murali M Yallapu, Mohammad Moshahid Khan, Manu M Sebastian, Subhash C Chauhan, Bilal B Hafeez

Dysregulated ribosome biogenesis and p53 mutations are known to play oncogenic roles in various cancers, including pancreatic cancer. In this study, we demonstrated the therapeutic potential of BMH-21, a pharmacologic inhibitor of RNA polymerase I, against pancreatic cancer by uncovering a novel molecular mechanism involving RPA194-mediated ubiquitination of mutant p53 without affecting the ubiquitination of wild-type p53. Our key findings are that (i) BMH-21 selectively induces apoptosis and cell growth inhibition of pancreatic cancer cells with no effect on normal human pancreatic ductal epithelial cells; (ii) BMH-21 degrades RPA194; (iii) BMH-21 inhibits recruitment of both RPA194 and RPA135 on rDNA …
