Understanding The Relationship Between How The Availability Of Vaping Devices And Student Use Are Related: A Quantitative Study, Felicia L. Owen
Understanding The Relationship Between How The Availability Of Vaping Devices And Student Use Are Related: A Quantitative Study, Felicia L. Owen
ATU Theses and Dissertations 2021 - Present
The number of teens in Arkansas who are vaping continues to increase despite state and national laws and regulations. The availability of vaping devices to teens continues to occur; but limited research is available that explores if the availability is accessible through peers, families, or community members, or is self-sought. It is crucial to gain a better understanding of why vaping continues to increase among high school students in Arkansas. The purpose of this study is to understand the relationship between how the availability of vaping devices and student use are related. The analysis of exposure and student use varies …
The Synergistic Effect Of Loganetin And 5-Fluorouracil On The Carcinogenesis Of Glioblastoma Cancer Cells, Jonathan Wollenberg
The Synergistic Effect Of Loganetin And 5-Fluorouracil On The Carcinogenesis Of Glioblastoma Cancer Cells, Jonathan Wollenberg
ATU Research Symposium
Chemoresistance is a discouraging trend that affects chemotherapeutic agents like 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) and leads to decreased efficacy of treatment. This has led to numerous studies into compound synergism. Glioblastomas are a type of lethal cancer that has shown chemoresistance to therapeutic agents such as 5-fluorouracil. Being the most common and lethal primary brain tumor, research on mechanisms of growth inhibition is vastly important (Lustig, 2018). The purpose of this study was to analyze whether 5-fluorouracil and a compound named Loganetin could synergistically inhibit glioblastoma cancer cells. This specific study utilized an extract created from the Lonicera etrusca plant. It was …
