Insecticide Resistance Profile In Nashville Culex Spp. Mosquito Populations, Ellie Sebaugh, Zachary Bement, Abelardo Moncayo, Darlene Panvini

Science University Research Symposium (SURS)

Mosquitoes may develop resistance to insecticides used by control programs, potentially increasing population density and the risk of mosquito-borne diseases. Culex spp. mosquitos are the primary vector of West Nile Virus (WNV), the leading cause of mosquito-borne disease in the United States and a reportable disease in Tennessee. Resistance profiles were constructed for two insecticides, permethrin and malathion, in a Culex spp. population from Nashville, Tennessee. Adult female mosquitoes were live-captured using gravid traps and tested using the Centers of Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) bioassay protocol to assess resistance or susceptibility. Three inhibitors were also included to identify metabolic …

Small For Gestational Age Subgroups Have Differential Morbidity, Growth, And Neurodevelopment At Age 2: The Interbio-21st Newborn Study, Aris T. Papageorghiou, María C. Restrepo-Ménde, Rose Mcgready, Fernando C. Barros, Francois Nosten, Shama Munim, Roseline Ochieng, Rachel Craik, Hellen C. Barsosio, Zulfiqar Ahmed Bhutta

Department of Obstetrics & Gynaecology

Background: Small for gestational age is a complex perinatal syndrome associated with increased neonatal morbidity, mortality, and impaired childhood growth and neurodevelopment. Current classifications rely primarily on birthweight, which does not capture the heterogeneity of the condition nor predict long-term health outcomes. Here we aim to identify and characterize distinct small for gestational age subgroups and assess their neonatal and early childhood health trajectories.
Objective: To refine the classification of small for gestational age by identifying subgroups based on maternal, fetal, and environmental factors and evaluating their associations with neonatal morbidity, growth, and neurodevelopment at age 2.
Study design: Prospective …

Assessing The Tumor Suppressive Impact And Regulatory Mechanisms Of Spdef Expression In Breast Cancer, Maansi Solanky, Maninder Khosla, Suresh K. Alahari

School of Graduate Studies Faculty Publications

Background/Objectives: Breast cancer is a heterogeneous disease, and the role of the transcription factor SPDEF remains controversial. We aimed to clarify the prognostic value of SPDEF, explore demographic and molecular correlates of its expression, and investigate potential regulatory mechanisms underlying its dysregulation. Methods: Genomic and clinical data for 1218 breast cancer tumors were obtained from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). SPDEF mRNA expression was compared across intrinsic subtypes, age, and race, and prognostic significance was evaluated by Kaplan–Meier analysis. Promoter methylation patterns and DNA methyltransferase (DNMT) expression were examined as potential regulatory drivers. Co-expression analysis was performed using gene panels …

Redefining Central Nervous System Multiple Myeloma: From Rare Phenomenon To Emerging Entity, Ian Landry, Adam F. Binder, Marc Yorker, Sarah Ramirez

Department of Medical Oncology Faculty Papers

BACKGROUND: Central nervous system involvement in multiple myeloma (CNS-MM) is considered a rare but devastating manifestation of extra-medullary disease (EMD) associated with aggressive biology and dismal outcomes. Treatment advances over the past few decades have improved survival in patients with MM, however, it has not translated into a similar survival benefit for those with CNS-MM. Early recognition and targeted management of CNS-MM remain major clinical challenges.

OBJECTIVE: This literature review summarizes the current literature on epidemiology, risk factors, clinical features, diagnostic modalities, and therapeutic approaches to CNS-MM. It focuses on emerging biomarkers and new treatment options that may affect the …

Myeov Is A Novel Marker Of Differentiated Corneal Epithelium, Yoshiko Fukuda, Chao Zhang, Bruce R. Ksander, Vickie Y. Jo, Christine G. Lian, George F. Murphy, Markus H. Frank, Natasha Y. Frank, Yuzuru Sasamoto

Research outputs 2022 to 2026

Purpose. Myeloma overexpressed gene (MYEOV) was initially identified as a gene amplified in several malignancies and was found to promote cell proliferation and metastasis. Our previous comparative RNA sequencing and epigenetic analyses revealed high MYEOV levels in differentiated corneal epithelial cells and showed that TET2 epigenetically regulated MYEOV expression. In the current study, we aimed to further characterize the expression and regulation of MYEOV in the human ocular surface. Methods. MYEOV expression was examined by immunostaining of the human corneas and by analysis of the publicly available single-cell RNA sequencing data. Gene knockdown (KD) of MYEOV and the regulators of …
