    E6 Inhibtion-Mediated Combinatorial Therapy for HPV+ HNSCC

    Get PDF
    High-risk human papillomaviruses (HPV) are the causative agents of virtually all cases of cervical cancer and up to 80% of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). Current treatment options include chemo- and radiotherapy, though the effectiveness of these therapies is limited by the viral oncoprotein E6, which disrupts apoptotic pathways by binding to and accelerating the degradation of molecules such as p53 and caspase- 8. Our hypothesis was that inhibiting E6 and rescuing the apoptotic mediators would increase the effectiveness of apoptotic agents. The aims of this study were to first, develop an HPV+ HNSCC xenograft model to test small E6 inhibiting molecules; and second, to evaluate the antitumor efficacy of lead molecules in an established in vivo model. We fulfilled the first aim by optimizing an HNSCC xenogral model using UM-SCC47 cells, incorporating Matrigel, and applying luciferase technology. Our lab has identified two E6 inhibitors from two different sources: spinacine was identified following screening of the TimTec Actiprobe 2K library, and 30-hydroxygambogic acid (GA-OH) was identified following screening of the Kansas University 5K library with subsequent follow-up. Both compounds were shown to rescue the apoptotic signaling molecules and to re-sensitize cancer cells to apoptosis in vitro. To further explore the therapeutic potential of these small molecules, we determined their toxicity and antitumor efficacy in vivo. Spinacine exhibited no toxicity to mice at doses up to and including 20 mg/kg but did not yield evidence of efficacy on tumor growth either alone or when combined with apoptotic agents. Subsequently, our lab demonstrated that GA-OH had higher specificity and effectiveness than our previous lead molecules in vitro. Therefore, we assessed GA-OH’s toxicity and evaluated the effectiveness of GA-OH in combination with chemotherapy. Behavioral/physical assessments, body weight, organ necropsy, and blood tests, with the possible exception of creatine kinase, all pointed towards lack of significance toxicity, predicting tolerance. Moreover, we were able to demonstrate that our animal model was functional, and that cetuximab slowed and regressed tumor growth. We found that GAOH alone did not slow tumor growth; however, when combined with cisplatin, GA-OH enhanced cisplatin’s efficacy in HPV+ HNSCC in vivo

    Perceived Business Skills Needs of MFTs: Implications for a Doctoral Program

    Get PDF
    The purpose of this study was twofold: a) to determine the training that MFTs should have to effectively work in organizational / business settings and with organizational / business issues in the role of clinician, administrator / manager, consultant, coach, and researcher and b) to determine what components should be included in a model curriculum in the area of organizational / management studies in an MFT doctoral program. Using the e-Delphi method, consensus from a panel of experts (in the profession of marriage and family therapy as well as in business / management / organizational issues) was obtained. Panelists identified thirty-eight business disciplines / topical areas that MFTs should be exposed to, with varying degrees of emphasis. Of these thirty-eight areas, eight were identified as themes that should run across the curriculum. For the remaining thirty areas (of which six were perceived as deserving of being the primary focus of a course) suggestions were made as to learning activities and learning resources. Panelists also provided suggestions pertaining to additional training and the nature of course learning modalities. Using the study results, course syllabi were developed by the researcher for four of the six key areas. Additionally, consistent with the study’s theoretical framework, these thirty-eight areas were organized by the researcher according to Bronfenbrenner’s bioecological system theory of human development

    Non-Pharmacological Interventions for Alzheimer’s Disease Patients

    Get PDF
    Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) research often focuses on the pharmacological treatment and neurological basis of the disease. However, in the absence of disease-modifying treatments, interventions that target symptom reduction may improve quality of life and delay institutionalization. Given the limitations and risks associated with pharmacological AD treatments, this paper reviews non-pharmacological interventions to improve memory function and reduce symptoms of depression in patients with AD including music therapies, Cognitive Rehabilitation, and Bright Light Therapy
