Podcasts about biomarkers

Send us a textMost people say they want to live longer. Fewer stop to ask: what does “longer” actually feel like?In this episode, Dr. Kevin White joins Dr. Nicki Byrne and Dr. Matt Kaeberlein for a fast-moving, smart, and practical conversation about health span — and what it really takes to stay strong, clear, and independent as you age.The trio breaks down the four pillars of health (eat, move, sleep, connect) and how to apply them in real life. You'll hear stories from the clinic, data that matters, and the kind of takeaways you can actually use — whether you're a curious patient or a clinician trying to make sense of continuous glucose monitors, inflammatory markers, or why one of your patients still eats sardines.This is part one of a two-part conversation originally recorded for the OptiSpan Podcast, hosted by Dr. Kaeberlein. Stay tuned for part two, where they dig into blood work, hormones, LP(a), genetic testing, and the future of personalized longevity medicine.

BUFFALO, NY - July 18, 2025 – A new #editorial was #published in Volume 16 of Oncotarget on July 16, 2025, titled “microRNAs in soft tissue sarcoma: State of the art and barriers to translation.” In this article, Elizaveta K. Titerina, Alessandro La Ferlita, and Joal D. Beane from Ohio State University discuss the role of microRNAs in soft tissue sarcomas (STS), a rare and diverse group of cancers that begin in connective tissues, like bone or fat. The authors explain how these small molecules regulate cancer-related processes and highlight their potential as non-invasive biomarkers for diagnosis and monitoring. They also outline the main challenges that need to be addressed before microRNA-based strategies can be used in clinical settings. Soft tissue sarcomas include over 50 subtypes, making precise diagnosis and effective treatment difficult. The editorial describes how microRNAs influence cancer growth, spread, and response to therapies. Because microRNAs are stable in body fluids like blood and saliva, they could be used for early detection and to help guide treatment decisions. Such as, certain groups of microRNAs are linked to how patients respond to specific drugs, showing their potential as tools for precision medicine. “For example, miR-17-92 and miR-106b-25 clusters have been associated with sensitivity or resistance to eribulin in STS.” The authors also explain that microRNAs could help distinguish between tumor types that are often difficult to differentiate, such as benign lipomas and malignant liposarcomas. Recognizing these differences is crucial for guiding treatment decisions. Specific patterns of microRNA expression in blood samples may enable clinicians to make quicker and more reliable diagnoses without the need for invasive procedures. Beyond their diagnostic role, microRNAs are also being explored as therapeutic tools, but applying microRNA-based therapies to patients remains challenging. These molecules can act as either cancer promoters or suppressors, depending on the environment, which complicates the development of safe and targeted treatments. However, new delivery methods such as lipid nanoparticles show promise in improving precision and safety. Overall, microRNAs are emerging as an important focus in STS research, offering new possibilities for advancing diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment. As researchers continue to address the current challenges, these small molecules could become valuable tools in improving cancer care.

Prostate cancer remains the most commonly diagnosed cancer and second leading cause of cancer death among men in the U.S., with evolving screening and treatment practices reshaping care in 2025. UCSF's Dr. Matthew Cooperberg highlights a shift away from overdiagnosis and overtreatment of low-risk cancers, focusing instead on identifying aggressive disease through tools like MRI and advanced biomarker tests. A new “smarter screening” model now guides primary care, recommending long testing intervals for men with low PSA levels. While active surveillance has increased nationally, significant variation in care remains, and racial disparities—especially for Black men—persist. Patients are encouraged to take time in making treatment decisions, as prostate cancer often progresses slowly and allows for thoughtful, personalized care.

The Cleveland Clinic is in the third year of a first-of-its-kind brain study that was launched in 2022. The aim of the study is to identify biomarkers for neurological disorders earlier and either slow the progression or stop the progression all together. It's estimated that 1 in 6 people worldwide live with a neurological disorder—a broad term that can include Alzheimer's, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's, and stroke among others. The study is expected to last for 20 years. Currently, more than 3,500 people from 46 states including Northeast Ohio are taking part in the study. But more participants are needed. Later, we talk to historian and author Brandy Schillace, Ph.D., about her new book, “The Intermediaries: A Weimar Story.” The book traces the story of the founding of the Institute for Sexual Science, the world's first center for homosexual and transgender rights.  We conclude the show with the latest episode of our podcast, “Shuffle.”

"There's incentive to keep people sick because Big Pharmaceutical will profit off of it, and then they'll prescribe the medications and the medications to combat the side effects of their own medications. It's a vicious cycle that's very hard to escape." - Nathan Graville Peptides + MSCs "Peptides and MSCs are the future of longevity. These are two therapeutics that will get us to living into our hundreds. When you do a MSC IV, it's going to find out where in your body you need healing and it's going to go to those areas on its own. This is potentially the most powerful therapeutic that we know about in existence as it relates to longevity." - Nathan Graville Feeling Healthy Doesn't Equal Being Healthy "There's no way to know if you're healthy based on just how you feel. You can have elevated markers that are directly correlated to all-cause mortality. Which is why looking underneath the hood is so crucially important. The only way to know is by doing a routine blood work." - Nathan Graville Links From Today's Show  Nathan Graville Geviti Conscious Capitalism by John Mackey + Raj Sisodia 734 Kirk Parsley MD | Sleep As Medicine: How To Sleep Like Royalty + Stop Being Sick 694 Shawn Wells | Your Ultimate Guide To Healing Mental + Physical Health NOOTOPIA (10% off with code JOSH10) Joy Kong MD   Josh's Trusted Products | Up To 40% Off Shop All Products Biohacking⁠ MANNA Vitality - Save 20% with code JOSH20 HigherDOSE - 15% off with the code WELLNESSANDWISDOM PLUNGE - $150 off with discount code WELLNESSFORCE Pulsetto - Save 20% with code "JOSH" SaunaSpace - 10% off with discount code JOSH10 Ultrahuman Ring Air - 10% off with code JOSH NutriSense - 30% off with WELLNESSFORCE Wellness Test Kits Choose Joi - Save 50% on all Lab Tests with JOSH Blokes - Save 50% on all Lab Tests with JOSH FertilityWize Test by Clockwize - Save 10% with code JOSH Tiny Health Gut Tests - $20 off with discount code JOSH20 VIVOO Health Tests - Save 30% off with code JOSH SiPhox Health Blood Test - Save 15% off with code JOSH Nutrition + Gut Health Organifi - 20% off with discount code WELLNESSFORCE SEED Synbiotic - 25% off with the code 25JOSHTRENT Paleovalley -  Save 15% off here!

Inflammation has become a nutrition buzzword, often used in extreme or misleading ways. This episode aims to clarify what inflammation is, how it relates to diet and health, and whether specific foods truly provoke inflammatory responses in the body. The episode provides a nuanced, evidence-based look at inflammation and diet. It explains the difference between acute and chronic inflammation, outlines the role of chronic low-grade inflammation in disease, and emphasizes that overall dietary patterns – rather than any single food – are what influence our inflammatory status. Commonly demonized foods (such as sugar, wheat, and dairy) are scrutinized, and the conversation debunks myths about them being uniformly “inflammatory.” In this episode, Danny takes a look at what the scientific evidence actually shows about anti-inflammatory diets.

Synopsis: What happens when a world-class scientist and a philanthropic legacy collide with one of medicine's greatest challenges? Dr. Howard Fillit and Mark Roithmayr of the Alzheimer's Drug Discovery Foundation (ADDF) join host Alok Tayi for an inspiring conversation on bold science, visionary funding models, and the future of Alzheimer's research. From treating Estée Lauder in the 1990s to building a $100M venture philanthropy engine, they trace ADDF's evolution into a global leader in high-risk, high-reward drug development. The discussion covers the rise of biomarkers and digital diagnostics, the foundation's partnerships with visionaries like Bill Gates and Jeff Bezos, and how ADDF's venture philanthropy approach bridges the “valley of death” in biotech. They also dive into global regulatory challenges, the economic urgency of Alzheimer's, and why the future lies in prevention, precision medicine, and a patient-first mindset. This episode is a masterclass in scientific grit, ecosystem thinking, and turning urgency into progress. Biography: Howard Fillit, MD Founding Executive Director and Chief Science Officer of the Alzheimer's Drug Discovery Foundation Howard Fillit, MD, is a geriatrician, neuroscientist, and innovative philanthropy executive, who has led the Alzheimer's Drug Discovery Foundation (ADDF) since its founding. Dr. Fillit has held faculty positions at The Rockefeller University, the SUNY-Stony Brook School of Medicine and the Cornell University School of Medicine. In 1987, he joined the Mount Sinai School of Medicine, where he is a clinical professor of geriatric medicine and palliative care, medicine and neuroscience. Dr. Fillit also maintains a limited private practice in consultative geriatric medicine with a focus on Alzheimer's disease and related dementias. He has authored or co-authored more than 300 publications and is the senior editor of Brocklehurst's Textbook of Geriatric Medicine and Gerontology. Dr. Fillit is the recipient of many awards and honors including the Rita Hayworth Award from the Alzheimer's Association. Mark Roithmayr Chief Executive Officer Mark Roithmayr is an admired nonprofit leader with four decades of experience in both start-ups and mature organizations. As CEO of the ADDF, he is responsible for steering the Foundation's overall strategy, focus, and business operations. Since joining the ADDF in 2017, the organization has transformed dramatically in impact, scale, presence, and brand. Under his leadership, the ADDF's revenue has increased five-fold from $17M to over $90M, and mission-related investing has grown over 100%. He works closely with Dr. Fillit, executive leadership, and the board to advance the ADDF's mission of accelerating the discovery of drugs to prevent, treat, and cure Alzheimer's disease and related dementias. His key accomplishments include securing donations from Bill Gates, Jeff Bezos, and MacKenzie Scott, and a 10-figure gift from the Lauder family to cover ADDF's overhead for the next 20 years.

L'arrivée des beaux jours rime souvent avec barbecue. Mais derrière ce plaisir convivial se cachent des risques pour la santé, bien documentés par la recherche médicale.Le principal danger réside dans la formation de composés chimiques toxiques lors de la cuisson à haute température. Lorsque les graisses de la viande fondent et tombent sur les braises, elles génèrent de la fumée. Cette fumée contient des hydrocarbures aromatiques polycycliques (HAP), substances classées cancérogènes probables par le Centre International de Recherche sur le Cancer (CIRC). Ces HAP se déposent ensuite sur les aliments.De plus, la cuisson de la viande à des températures élevées entraîne la formation de amines hétérocycliques (AHC). Ces molécules se créent lors de la réaction entre les acides aminés et les sucres présents dans la viande. Elles sont elles aussi considérées comme cancérogènes.Mais ce n'est pas qu'une théorie. Une étude majeure publiée en 2005 dans la revue Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers & Prevention par le Dr Kristin Anderson, épidémiologiste à l'université du Minnesota, a suivi plus de 62 000 femmes. Résultat : celles qui consommaient régulièrement de la viande bien cuite au barbecue avaient un risque de cancer du sein augmenté de 54 % par rapport aux femmes qui en consommaient peu ou pas.Les risques concernent aussi d'autres cancers : colorectal, pancréas, prostate… Plusieurs études épidémiologiques ont montré une corrélation entre une consommation fréquente de viande grillée et une augmentation de ces cancers.Autre point préoccupant : les HAP ne se contentent pas d'augmenter le risque de cancer. Ils peuvent aussi avoir des effets sur le système cardiovasculaire et entraîner des inflammations chroniques. Quant aux AHC, ils peuvent endommager l'ADN des cellules, un mécanisme clé dans le développement tumoral.Faut-il pour autant bannir le barbecue ? Pas nécessairement. Il est possible de réduire ces risques en adoptant quelques précautions :éviter de carboniser les aliments,cuire à une température plus modérée,mariner la viande, ce qui réduit la formation d'AHC,privilégier les légumes grillés, beaucoup moins concernés par ces composés toxiques.En résumé, la cuisson au barbecue expose à des substances cancérogènes connues. La recherche médicale, comme l'étude de l'université du Minnesota, démontre que leur consommation répétée augmente significativement le risque de cancer. En adaptant ses pratiques, on peut cependant continuer à profiter de ces moments en limitant les dangers. Hébergé par Acast. Visitez acast.com/privacy pour plus d'informations.
