- Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), BCL-2, and BAX expression in fibropapilloma tumor tissue and skin tissue of sea turtles.
- Creator
- Bancalari-Schmidlapp, Angela., Charles E. Schmidt College of Science, Department of Biological Sciences
- Abstract/Description

In sea turtles, the study of the etiology and development of fibropapillomatosis is not fully understood. Sea turtle fibropapillomatosis is a disease characterized by the proliferation of skin fibropapillomas and occasional internal fibromas. In this study, sea turtle fibropapilloma tumor and healthy tissue samples were used to look at VEGF, BCL-2 and Bax expression. Cancer tumors have a well established pattern of protein expression that involves overexpression of vascular endothelial growth...
Show moreIn sea turtles, the study of the etiology and development of fibropapillomatosis is not fully understood. Sea turtle fibropapillomatosis is a disease characterized by the proliferation of skin fibropapillomas and occasional internal fibromas. In this study, sea turtle fibropapilloma tumor and healthy tissue samples were used to look at VEGF, BCL-2 and Bax expression. Cancer tumors have a well established pattern of protein expression that involves overexpression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), responsible for the growth of new blood vessels, and a high BCL-2 to Bax ratio that leads to uncontrolled cell proliferation. Real time PCR was used to analyze VEGF expression, and Western blot techniques were used to measure BCL-2 and Bax expression. The results indicated that expression of VEGF was not significantly higher in tumor vs. skin tissue. For the differential expression of BCL-2 and Bax, the results were not in agreement with the established levels found in cancer studies, showing no significant change in BCL-2 expression and significantly higher levels of Bax in tumor vs. healthy tissue.

Show moreToday we live in the world where geographic distances on this planet are no longer big hurdles for information exchange. This has been possible due to widespread use of the Internet in recent years. Emergence of the Internet and the World Wide Web (WWW) have been significant in the development of low cost distance learning systems. In recent years, technologies for multimedia online publishing and online collaboration have developed significantly. Because of these developments, cost-effective information exchange and two-way communication across the Internet is possible. This thesis proposes a new virtual classroom model named Virtual Classroom Over the Internet (VCOIN). It also presents a high-level architecture and a implementation of a prototype of VCOIN. VCOIN introduces a new approach towards teaching across the Internet. It also has some unique features that brings it one step closer to being a truly virtual classroom system over the Internet. Lessons learned from various experiments of the VCOIN prototype are described in this thesis.

- VEGETATION ANALYSIS OF THE ATLANTIC COASTAL RIDGE OF BROWARD COUNTY, FLORIDA.
- Creator
- STEINBERG, BRYAN., Florida Atlantic University
- Abstract/Description
-
With the 1940 imagery and past vegetation studies in southern Florida as a base, the vegetation of the Atlantic Coastal Ridge of Broward County is mapped in detail for the first time. The vegetation including Strand, Tropical Hammock, Low Hammock, Mangrove, Swamp, Scrub, Pine Flatwoods, Dry Prairie, Wet Prairie and Marsh is similar to past studies (Harshberger, 1914; Harper, 1927; Davis, 1943). Differences in vegetation nomenclature are illustrated and the vegetation types are defined and...

The vegetation including Strand, Tropical Hammock, Low Hammock, Mangrove, Swamp, Scrub, Pine Flatwoods, Dry Prairie, Wet Prairie and Marsh is similar to past studies (Harshberger, 1914; Harper, 1927; Davis, 1943). Differences in vegetation nomenclature are illustrated and the vegetation types are defined and discussed with reference to characteristic species, ecology and soils. A checklist of the vascular flora is compiled with 645 species in 136 families. Sixty-three percent of the species are of tropical affinity, 7% are endemic and 8% are exotic.

A spatial analysis of vegetation community changes over time at the Arthur R. Marshall National Loxahatchee Wildlife Refuge will be conducted in order to identify relationships with variations in water level and water quality. The analysis will use existing current and historical data in the refuge, including water gages, vegetation surveys, fire burn data, Lidar based digital elevation data and aerial photography acquired from the United States Fish and Wildlife Service, Everglades Depth...
Show moreA spatial analysis of vegetation community changes over time at the Arthur R. Marshall National Loxahatchee Wildlife Refuge will be conducted in order to identify relationships with variations in water level and water quality. The analysis will use existing current and historical data in the refuge, including water gages, vegetation surveys, fire burn data, Lidar based digital elevation data and aerial photography acquired from the United States Fish and Wildlife Service, Everglades Depth Estimation Network EDEN, South Florida Water Management District and other sources. Understanding how vegetation boundaries and dominant species shift over time in response to water level changes and other hydrological factors will allow the National Wildlife Refuge, and other scientists, to create more responsive conservation and maintenance plans for the wetland refuge.

- VEGETATION DYNAMICS AT DIFFERENT SPATIO-TEMPORAL SCALES IN FREQUENTLY BURNED MIXED CONIFER FORESTS, NORTHERN SIERRA NEVADA RANGE, CALIFORNIA.

Mixed conifer forests in the Sierra Nevada, California, face threats from frequent highseverity fire associated with climate change and fuel accumulation leading to vegetation shifts at local and landscape scales. Under rapid climate change, a clear understanding of how vegetation responds to single and/or repeated wildfires is still lacking and needs to be investigated.

Show moreMixed conifer forests in the Sierra Nevada, California, face threats from frequent highseverity fire associated with climate change and fuel accumulation leading to vegetation shifts at local and landscape scales. Under rapid climate change, a clear understanding of how vegetation responds to single and/or repeated wildfires is still lacking and needs to be investigated. Using field and satellite data, the effects of wildfire on vegetation dynamics were explored at the plot and landscape levels in this dissertation project. Results from the field data suggest that management activities may be required in high-severity burned areas to restore dominance of mixed conifer forests and regain historical species composition in areas where live trees persist. Results from satellite data suggested that large shrub patches, created after mixed severity fire, fragment the homogenous mixed conifer dominated forest of the Sierra Nevada to create a more heterogeneous landscape, however the extent of diversity and fragmentation were dependent on fire severity and scales. Natural wildfires may restore landscape heterogeneity to conditions equivalent to the pre-Columbian era, but effects under the projected climate change scenario for 21st century remain uncertain. Mixed conifer dominated forests are predicted to be the dominant component of the Sierra Nevada landscape under historical fire probabilities and excluding higher probability of high-severity fire over the next 100 years.

Show moreThe Loxahatchee Slough is the largest wilderness island refuge existing in Palm Beach County, Florida. Cultural impacts have altered the hydrology of the area. This study provides a database of historical and geographical information regarding the Slough. Aerial photography and satellite imagery from pre- and post-channelization dates are classified according to vegetation ecosystems. GIS analysis is used to compare these diverse data sets. Changes in hydroperiod are examined, using vegetation as an indicator. Results show a general trend toward dryer hydroperiod vegetation land cover. Since 1979, the Army Corps of Engineers has raised water levels back toward pre-channelization levels, in a portion of the study area known as the Historic Region. Results indicate a positive response, with a net increase of longer hydroperiod vegetation in this region since 1979.
