Those who study neurological diseases and their underlying cellular and molecular mechanisms have a number of scientific models at their disposal. In vivo animal models, particularly those bearing targeted genetic modifications, remain the gold standard, especially when it comes to assessment of behavioral readouts and neurobiological disease mechanisms in vivo. Historically, animal models have been widely used for preclinical validation of drug efficacy and safety.  Increasingly there is a move away from this approach, and human cellular models using induced pluripotent stem cells and their derivatives such as three-dimensional organoid models have recently provided unprecedented genetic and mechanistic insights into disease mechanisms. Human/animal chimeras made by xenografting human cells into the animal brain have unparalleled potential to study human cells in the context of the whole organism. Our guests today review the use of these types of model systems to understand neuropsychiatric diseases, focusing on Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, Down syndrome, and schizophrenia and provide critical appraisal of the impact of human-rodent xenografting approaches for advancing our understanding of those diseases and brain development.

Today, I am blessed to have Dr. Georgia Ede here with me. She is a Harvard-trained psychiatrist specializing in nutritional and metabolic psychiatry. Her twenty-five years of experience include twelve years at Smith College and Harvard University Health Services, where she was the first to offer nutrition-based therapies as an alternative to psychiatric medication. Dr. Ede speaks internationally about nutrition science and dietary approaches to psychiatric conditions and developed the first and only medically accredited Ketogenic Diets for Mental Health Clinician Training Program. In 2022, she co-authored the first inpatient study of the ketogenic diet for serious mental illness and was named a recipient of the Baszucki Brain Research Fund's Metabolic Mind Award. In this episode, Dr. Ede identifies the most harmful foods contributing to brain decline and chronic disease as refined carbohydrates, refined vegetable oils, alcohol, grains, and legumes. She explains that refined carbohydrates, such as sugar and flour, and seed oils, like soybean and canola oil, undergo extensive processing that strips them of natural properties, leading to excessive linoleic acid intake. Tune in as Dr. Ede emphasizes that a ketogenic diet is not a list of foods but a powerful metabolic intervention that can significantly alter the brain's functioning. By drastically reducing carbohydrate intake, individuals can lower their insulin levels, which is crucial for entering ketosis.

“All I will say is that my scientific opinion is that there is something real going on in New Brunswick that absolutely cannot be explained by the bias or personal agenda of an individual neurologist.” Those are the words of Dr. Michael Coulthart, a microbiologist employed by our federal government, specifically by Public Health Canada. He's talking about the mysterious neurological disease that is striking down people in New Brunswick. We were not supposed to read his words. They are from a leaked email obtained by Canadaland, first published by the newspaper The Guardian.Then there was another leaked email. Doctor Samuel Weiss, a neuroscientist and the scientific director of the Canadian Institutes of Health Research. In his leaked email, he states, “I felt incredibly optimistic that an all out government effort to unravel the mystery was in the cards.

Why is it that women are almost twice as likely to develop Alzheimer's disease, and what are the greatest risk factors associated with developing dementia? Today on SHE MD, Mary Alice and Dr. Aliabadi team up with Dr. Kellyann Niotis to explore what women can do to prevent cognitive decline.Dr. Kellyann Niotis is one of the world's only preventative neurologists, specializing in personalized risk reduction for neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, Lewy Body Dementia, and Parkinson's disease.In this episode, Dr. Niotis delves into known contributors to dementia and outlines her non-negotiable principles for maintaining brain health. Dr. Niotis walks our hosts through the way hormone fluctuations during menopause play a role in neurodegeneration and the critical health markers that signal red flags for neurologists. A strong advocate of the idea that "your genes are not your destiny," Dr. Niotis offers a wealth of research-backed advice and preventative measures to combat brain disease.Dr. Niotis highlights specific risks associated with the APOE4 gene and addresses common questions about brain disease, hormone replacement therapy, alcohol consumption, over-the-counter sleep aids, and even the role of the Herpes Simplex Virus in neuroinflammation. Tune in for the essential tools women need to protect themselves against cognitive decline.What if you could do more to understand your risk of breast cancer?

This week, Dr. Kahn discusses new data indicating that the 5-day Fasting Mimicking Diet, called PROLON, can assist in improving measures of diabetic control in Type 2 disease. PROLON is available at prolonfmd.com/drkahn. He also discusses blood pressure and brain health, as well as heart disease after menopause. For the main topic, Dr. Kahn highlights a new research article describing silent brain disease in heart patients. Up to two-thirds of patients have white matter lesions, silent brain infarctions, and other pathologies on MRI scans. Dr. Kahn discusses how it may be possible to prevent these findings and whether all heart patients should have a brain MRI.

Guest Anna Lembke is a psychiatrist and a specialist in the behavioral sciences who studies addiction. While there is tremendous variety in the things people can be addicted to, all forms are tied to dopamine, a biochemical that is key to human senses of pleasure, reward, and motivation. She says that new treatments are combining traditional abstinence with programs that help patients reenergize dopamine centers in the brain through physical exercise, which is a known producer of dopamine. If patients can reach 30 days of abstinence there is a good chance at recovery, Lembke tells host Russ Altman on this episode of Stanford Engineering's The Future of Everything podcast.Episode Reference Links:Anna Lembke's Stanford ProfileAnna Lembke's WebsiteHow do we fight the disease of addiction?

A brain researcher says anyone who's experienced repeated head injuries, or knocks, is at risk of developing chronic traumatic encephalopathy, or CTE.  The family of Billy Guyton, a former Blues and New Zealand Māori halfback who died last year aged 33, received a report from the Brain Bank this week after extensive testing, confirming a diagnosis of CTE. New Zealand Rugby says it is concerned about the possibility that repeated head impacts in rugby may contribute to neurodegenerative diseases in later life. It says it's supporting world-leading research on long-term impacts, including understanding any link between concussion in rugby and long-term brain health. Dr Helen Murray, who plays ice hockey for New Zealand and is a fellow at the centre for brain research at the University of Auckland, spoke to Morning Report.

A UK neuroscientist Dr. Kevin McCairn has exposed the fact that the deadly mRNA injections are leading to a massive increase in brain wasting prions disease. Several other major doctors are warning of the same. McCairn has been warning of mRNA's connection to prions since 2013, yet few have listened until recently. The injections continue to be exposed for their part in excess deaths, heart problems, cancer, strokes among countless other illnesses across the board. It's truly incredible how many people are still running out to get them. In fact, the 10th booster shot has now been recommended for people. Imagine being so incredibly stupid as to get a 10th shot. How are these people still alive? Meanwhile, as more studies come out against injections, the French government is banning criticism of mRNA injections in a newly revised bill.

It's a wrap! The Spotify variety, if you know what I mean... This year I thought it would be fun to do a live "unwrapping" of the Podcasters Wrapped, which provides fun information and insights about your podcast (those that use Spotify are oh so familiar with this fun annual event!). I found it amazing and hysterical that The Red Light Report community has nearly identical tastes to me, both in regards to  top podcast genres listened to and top music genres listened to. I have no doubt we could all get along!   On a more mitochondrial note, I found a highly interesting research article on methylene blue and its potential as an anti-aging drug. To a large degree, this should come as no surprise given methylene blue's immense and dynamic impact on the mitochondria and, as we all know, the inherent tie our mitochondria's health and function has on our overall welling and lifespan. The review discusses the anti-aging effects of MB with a focus on the relationship between mitochondrial dysfunction and aging.The article did a fantastic job of verifying this by looking at the profound role "the blue" can play on the aging brain, particularly those neurodegenerative conditions we associate with our latter years -- Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease. From the article: "​Since MB is an FDA-approved medicine with a long history, the safety of MB usage has been thoroughly evaluated. The exploration of MB utilization in aging-related conditions can help us understand the aging process. Derivatives of MB can also be developed to improve its effects."Could methylene blue be one of the most effective (while still being incredibly safe) anti-aging drugs ​known to mankind? The jury is out, but the current data is quite strong. Let's not forget it's remarkable synergism with red light therapy...​​ As always, light up your health! - Key points Introduction, Holiday Greetings, and Spotify 2023 Wrapped (00:00:00 - 00:16:41) Additional Avenues for Red Light Therapy, Mitochondrial Health, and Methylene Blue (00:16:41 - 00:17:08) Article Introduction on Methylene Blue as an Anti-Aging Drug (00:17:09 - 00:17:34) Free Radicals Theory of Aging and Mitochondrial Health (00:17:35 - 00:23:36): 00:20:35 - 00:26:36 Methylene Blue as an Anti-Aging Drug (00:23:37 - 00:24:39): 00:26:37 - 00:27:39 Synergistic Effects of Red Light Therapy and Methylene Blue (00:24:40 - 00:25:39): 00:27:40 - 00:28:39 Methylene Blue's Permeability, Historical Uses, and Applications (00:25:39 - 00:26:49): 00:28:39 - 00:29:49 French Study on Methylene Blue and Potential Antiviral Effects (00:26:49 - 00:28:03): 00:29:49 - 00:31:03 Dosages, Safety, and Benefits of Methylene Blue (00:28:03 - 00:29:58): 00:31:03 - 00:32:58 Recommendations and Personal Example (00:29:58 - 00:32:35): 00:32:58 - 00:35:35 Ongoing Benefits, Comparisons to Red Light Therapy (00:32:35 - 00:33:54): 00:35:35 - 00:36:54 Applications Section - Methylene Blue in Brain Aging (00:33:54 - 00:35:09): 00:36:54 - 00:38:09 Methylene Blue's Impact on Mitochondrial Function and Brain Diseases (00:35:09 - 00:37:43): 00:38:09 - 00:40:43 Role in Alzheimer's and Parkinson's Diseases (00:37:44 - 00:41:23): 00:40:44 - 00:44:23 Memory Enhancement and Benefits in Treating Brain Aging (00:41:23 - 00:43:12): 00:44:23 - 00:46:12 Summarizes Importance of Methylene Blue in Mitochondrial Health (00:43:46 - 00:46:47): 00:46:46 - 00:49:47 Potential Derivatives, Broader Implications (00:46:47 - 00:47:36): 00:49:47 - 00:50:36 Pervasive Role of Mitochondria, Simple Health Improvement Strategies (00:47:36 - 00:49:24): 00:50:36 - 00:52:24 Encouragement for Ratings and Reviews (00:49:44 - 00:49:48): 00:52:44 - 00:52:48 Conclusion - Wishing Listeners an Amazing Week and Prioritizing Health (00:49:48 - End) - Learn more about methylene blue & BioBlue: Methylene blue​ ​BioBlue - Dr. Mike's #1 recommendations: Grounding products: Earthing.com EMF-mitigating products: Somavedic Blue light blocking glasses: Ra Optics - To learn more about red light therapy, methylene blue, and shop for the highest-quality red light therapy products, visit https://www.biolight.shop - Stay up-to-date on social media: Dr. Mike Belkowski: Instagram LinkedIn   BioLight: Instagram YouTube Facebook

In the mornings, Sonia Vallabh and Eric Minikel's first job is to get their two garrulous kids awake, fed and out the door to daycare and kindergarten. They then reconvene at the office and turn their focus to their all-consuming mission: to cure, treat, or prevent genetic prion disease. Prions are self-replicating proteins that can cause fatal brain disease. For a decade, Sonia Vallabh has been living with the knowledge that she has a genetic mutation that will likely cause in her the same disease that claimed her mother's life in 2010. Upon discovering she had the mutation, Sonia and her husband made a massive pivot: They went from careers in law and urban planning to earning their Ph.D.s, and founding a prion research lab at the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard. On today's episode, Sonia and Eric talk with Short Wave's Gabriel Spitzer about what it's like to run a lab with one's spouse, cope with the ticking clock in Sonia's genes, and find hope in a bleak diagnosis.
