Adam and Joe sit down with Dr. Joseph Winberry to talk about information sciences and community-based participatory action research (CBPAR). Dr. Winberry is an Assistant Professor at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill School of Information and Library Science. Much of his teaching and research revolves around critical librarianship, information marginalization, and older adults. Jumping into our lightning round, [00:45] Dr. Winberry walks us through the choices and experiences that led him to the crossroads of studying CBPAR and older adults.[04:33] Winberry tells us about the important work around “information marginalization” (Gibson & Martin, 2019) that guides his research and [07:22] what action research looks like more broadly in his context. At this point, our hosts dig in deeper into his dissertation study: a CBPAR project with LGBT older adults that was [09:02] “led by the community and addressing issues that they believe are important.” First, [09:11] he shares insights on what is critical to success in an action research investigation: time, relationships and flexibility. [10:35] He then offers advice to graduate students who are considering action research as their methodology for their thesis or dissertation. Joe asks Winberry to [12:54] tell us more about what brought him to community-based participatory action research, specifically. We get to hear about how his experience with community organizing and his role at the Office on Aging informed his passion for information sciences and action-oriented research. [20:02] Winberry shares some of the key scholars that shaped his work, and we share some of those references below. [21:33] Like many action research researcher-practitioners, Winberry also [21:30] faced some pushback about doing action research as part of a dissertation and walks us through his responses to those challenges. Any listeners interested in CBPAR will want to listen [23:29] to Winberry describe the methods and steps of his CBPAR process. The work led to the development of [25:33] a strategic plan, a series of community consultations to validate that plan, and then the establishment of a committee to follow up on that plan—called the Aging Rainbow Coalition or ARC. [31:19] Winberry spends some time sharing how he handled the hurdles of working with the Institutional Review Boards (IRB) for ethics approval and the important role of informal data collection. As a final discussion, our hosts prompt Winberry to talk about [33:01] positionality and reflexivity in CBPAR. For Winberry, “how I approached the study and how it ultimately looked” was absolutely shaped by his background. What are Winberry's parting words of encouragement to future action researchers? “Don't be afraid to take risks and don't be afraid to engage the community.” And more.Thanks Dr. Winberry for reaching out to us and sharing your work.How have you found yourself in the world of action research?

Listen in as special guest, Ashley Tison shares the power of Opportunity Zones to generate positive social impact alongside risk-adjusted returns.   Opportunity Zones are designated areas in the United States where real estate investments can qualify for tax incentives under the Opportunity Zone program. These areas are typically economically distressed and low-income communities, and the goal of the program is to encourage investment and economic development in these areas. Investors who invest in Opportunity Zones can receive tax benefits, including deferral of capital gains taxes, reduction of those taxes if the investment is held for a certain period of time, and elimination of capital gains taxes on any profits earned from the investment. The program was created as part of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, and it is intended to promote long-term investment and economic growth in underserved communities.   Ashley Tison (magna cum laude University of North Carolina Charlotte and University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill School of Law) is a practicing attorney and experienced entrepreneur responsible for the founding and growth of numerous enterprises across a wide array of industries.

Dr. Tamara Baker talks to host Brenda Olmos about disparities in treatment for pain management and why it is critical to acknowledge the realities of pain in older adults without equating pain with aging. Along the way, they discuss how personal histories can guide professional work, bridging the gap between research and practice, and the power of diverse representation in leadership at The Gerontological Society of America.  Guest: Tamara Baker, PhD, FGSA (Bio)—Professor, Department of Psychiatry, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill School of Medicine, in Chapel Hill, North Carolina.  Host: Brenda Olmos, MSN, APRN, FNP-C (Bio)—Reynolds Scholar, University of Oklahoma, Reynolds Center for Geriatric Nursing Excellence in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.  This podcast episode is supported by the GSA Innovation Fund: 75th Anniversary.

This podcast is part of a series focused on the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our food system. Today we're looking at how North Carolina's School Meal Programs have adapted during the pandemic and how some school children are continuing to get the nutrition that they need.   It's my pleasure to welcome public health advocates, Elle Evans Peterson, the Director of Family Engagement for the North Carolina Parent Teacher Association, and Morgan Wittman Gramann, the Executive Director of the North Carolina Alliance for Health. So Elle, let's begin by asking you how North Carolina's school districts have responded during the pandemic with respect to school meal programs.   [Elle] Thank you so much for this opportunity, Kelly. Just as a little bit of background, our state is unfortunately ranked eighth in the country in food and security for children under the age of 18. In fact, 900,000 students in North Carolina qualify for free and reduced priced meals, which is up from 800,000 just last year. So the need is definitely growing. And Feeding America estimates that nearly 30% of North Carolina children are now food insecure. Unfortunately, more North Carolina children than ever are relying on school nutrition programs for essential nutrition.   On March 14th of this year when Governor Cooper issued his Executive Order and closed North Carolina public schools statewide, the first challenge was how do we continue to offer this essential service and feed our students? Immediately, the North Carolina Department of Public Construction, or DPI, which is our state's education agency, began filing for USDA waivers. In all, North Carolina filed 21 federal waivers. And we were one of the first states in the nation to submit these applications.   Just in case anybody's not sure what these waivers actually do, there are a lot of regulatory details about running a school nutrition program that feeds children. That's for safety reasons, and to make sure that the meals have full nutrition. What the waivers do is they allow the individual school nutrition programs to have much more flexibility. So, it might be something as simple as, instead of serving the meal in the school cafeteria, we can serve it out on the sidewalk. We can do a grab and go and people can drive up and get their meals and take it with them. One of the requirements is that you have to have milk with each meal in order for it to be reimbursable. And so one of the waivers was, serve milk if you can, but if there's one day where you don't have milk, or you can't keep it cool to follow public health guidelines, and it's okay if you substitute it out for juice instead, things like that. The other thing that also happened at that same time is that school nutrition and transportation staff were deemed essential personnel. That was really important so that they could continue to feed our kids, and do their work. These federal waivers allowed things like not feeding them in the school cafeteria, but in some other options. This meant that some of our community partners like faith-based groups, and other non-profits could apply to help serve school meals across our state. These waivers allow the kind of flexibility in how the food is served and meal pattern guidelines, still following safety issues of course. But, they do permit options like grab and go, and curbside pickup, and delivery. In fact, Yellow School Buses have been out delivering meals in many districts. If you have seen a Yellow School Bus on the road this spring since March 14th, they were probably out delivering meals to our kids. In total, North Carolina school nutrition programs have served more than 18 million meals since March 16th. And that includes operating more than 1,000 pickup and drive through meal sites, and more than 2100 Yellow Buses out delivering those meals. That really is pretty incredible results.   It's really heartening to know that the school bus drivers can play such an important role in this. And so in addition to the school buses, are there other things now that are working especially well?   [Elle] You know, Kelly, I appreciate you asking me that because there have been some amazing success stories that have come out of this. First of all, I will say that DPI was very efficient in submitting those waivers. Those requests went in as early as possible, and that set up the situation for great success. Then DPI and No Kid Hungry partnered very early on as well to set up a direct text line so that families had a tool with a mapping feature to help them find their closest feeding site. Many local school nutrition managers also changed their menus right away to grab and go, and creative packaging, and the curbside pickup, and that innovation, this is not something that school nutrition has ever been asked to do. To do this on the scale that they operate on a daily basis, five days a week, every week, on such short notice is really just an incredible feat. In fact, the meal delivery on school buses has never been done before. That innovation and pragmatism is what makes North Carolina School Nutrition Program staff so amazing. Meals were delivered at school bus stops, and other alternate locations. We offered weekend food kits, sometimes some locations offered like a full week of nutrition. And all of these creative options were first time innovations of the school nutrition programs across the state.   Many, many community partners have stepped up. Regional food bank partners, our faith-based partners, the Meals on Wheels, the local community centers, and the local senior centers. The YMCAs, the Boys and Girls Clubs, and just many, many other non-profits across the state. In some locations, the North Carolina National Guard has even been helping serve meals. It has truly taken this entire group to make these meals available for our kids. The response has really been overwhelming.   I will give you a couple of examples of some interesting partnerships and innovations. The school nutrition out in Currituck County had to contend with all the other regular delivery issues, but Currituck County is out in the outer banks. She needed to create alternative packaging option for her meals, so that the food would stay steady during the deliver that included a ferry ride. In Durham County, in their school district, they created a new partnership named The Durham Feast, which was created specifically to address some unmet needs. Local restaurants there were enlisted to help feed the district students. In Yadkin County, we know that the school nutrition there partnered with 13 different faith-based organizations and they all helped to provide essential needs, including the packaging supplies. You don't really think about it, but grab and go is not something that we normally offer a lot of in a regular school nutrition setting. Also, PPE was something that they helped provide. And additional perishable foods, including fresh fruit, apples and bananas that they were able to include in their meals. And then finally, in Halifax County, the school nutrition director there partnered with churches for supplies. Their local Meals on Wheels group helped deliver their meals in their, primarily rural, school district. They needed a little help to make sure that they covered the entire county, in addition to the district's Yellow School Buses.   So the creativity and innovation that all of our school nutrition staff have exhibited is just amazing. But one thing was consistent, and Morgan and I heard this time and time again, no matter where the school was located, or what its size.  When school nutrition team members talked to us about the impact of school closures and continuing to serve meals to our children, they have told us that they have been in absolute crisis mode since day one of school closures. They report that they're working seven days a week. This is since early March. Most of their staff is too, to meet the needs, they're so dedicated, and this is just remarkable, their endurance is incredible. We truly appreciate every single one of them. It's nothing short of heroic, for sure. But obviously, this is just not a sustainable model.   It's so heartening to hear stories of commitment and passion, and hard work. So thank you for sharing those. Morgan, let's turn to you. What are we learning now about weaknesses in school meal programs? And are there issues that are front and center now with the backdrop of COVID?   [Morgan] So I first want to echo Elle, and just say that school nutrition program staff are really doing a phenomenal job making sure that our children are fed. Funding and flexibility have really been highlighted as weaknesses.   School nutrition programs operate like small businesses, and they're tasked with generating enough revenue to cover all of their expenses, from food, to equipment supplies, even employee salaries and benefits. They rely heavily on the sale of a la carte items, and paid meals to help balance their budgets. This is problematic under normal circumstances, but it's especially problematic now because school nutrition programs aren't able to sell food, so they're not bringing in that revenue. Programs do receive limited federal funds in the form of reimbursements for free and reduced priced meals. The state does provide a 30 cent reimbursement to cover the copay for students who qualify for reduced price breakfast, as required by the USDA for the match. But, the state doesn't provide any additional funding. So again, the school nutrition programs are having to bring in enough revenue to cover a lot of their expenses.   Going back to my discussion about employee salaries and benefits, the school nutrition program staff are state employees, but programs are expected to cover the costs of the salaries and benefits, despite the fact that these costs are controlled by the state. So for example, if the state legislature provides a state employee raise, school nutrition programs have to increase their sales enough to be able to cover this expense. And that can just be a really daunting task for them. Programs are also required to pay indirect costs. They pay a rate that's significantly higher than what we see with other programs that receive federal funding. So not only are they having to raise their own revenue, and balance their own budgets, but they're also having to pay out a lot of that money into the district. So they lost the final revenue from food sales, and then they've also accrued the additional costs related to adapting to COVID-19 as Elle talked about with delivering meals, and the grab and go items, and hazard pay and PPE, and all of those things.   We also know that in a typical school year, school nutrition programs accrue meal debt throughout the year when students aren't able to pay for their meals. Typically, school nutrition programs would rely on the district, or sometimes a donor, to pay off that debt. But we know that budgets are tight all around, and that just isn't as possible this year. A lot of the school year was a typical year. School nutrition programs do have that debt. And now, because of COVID-19, they're left without support to be able to pay it off. In addition to having lost revenue and accrue additional costs.   So, I think COVID-19 has really just highlighted that this funding structure that school nutrition programs have is not sustainable. And then again, continuing with our themes, program flexibility, there are many restrictions on school nutrition programs, and how they serve and what they serve and to whom they serve. There is oversight needed. We are serving meals to children, we want to make sure that they're nutritious, and safe, and healthy, and all of those things. But some of these requirements are significantly limiting access. Too often, it's the students who need the meal the most that are being left out.   As Elle discussed, there are a number of waivers in effect currently that have been necessitated by COVID-19 that are making meals more accessible to students, for instance, the school nutrition programs are allowed to give many meals at once, rather than requiring the students to return to the meal site for each meal, and consume the meal on-site. They can serve meals on a more flexible schedule. They can make substitutions, she addressed the milk. They can adjust their nutrition guidelines if necessary. And then also, parents and guardians are able to pick up the meals for the child, rather than requiring the child to be there. This has increased the number of children who are receiving the meals, ensuring that they're getting access to nutritious food. And highlighting that there really are barriers in normal circumstances, and the flexibility can really increase access.   So I'd especially like to hear from each of you on this question, what do you believe policy changes are needed to create a more resilient school meal system? Elle, let's hear from you first, if you wouldn't mind.   [Elle] Thank you for asking about that, Kelly. I think that is a really critical discussion that we need to have. And now is the time. And I'm going to let Morgan parse this answer in a little more detail, but simply put, school nutrition programs need state funding, and they need it now. With a loss of the a la carte sales, and the loss of retail revenues in school nutrition programs, an average of about 3.2 million dollars per week during the recent 12-week school closure, school nutrition programs need state funding to survive. And unfortunately, local districts have also suffered enormous revenue losses, and just can't make up the difference. In a post-COVID-19 world, we have to realize that all costs have increased. And this adds another level of complexity. Supply chains have been impacted, so food prices are continuing to rise. Following the news, CDC serving guidelines, and providing PPE to staff, those things all have additional associated costs. So if there was ever a time for state funding for school nutrition programs in North Carolina, that time is now.   And Morgan, your thoughts?   [Morgan] I agree with Elle. I think it all goes back to funding and flexibility. Additional funding is absolutely critical, and will continue to be critical moving forward. I think reducing the indirect costs that school nutrition programs are required to pay, will go a long way, and will allowing them to be able to continue to provide these services. And then going back to the waivers, I think a lot of the waivers that are currently in place should be permanent. I'm not suggesting that safety is not important, and nutrition is not important. But a lot of the waivers are providing increased access, and that is so critical. We know that the meal programs, specifically in the summer, which is the model that's being used now, while kids are out of school, is very underutilized.   We know that one of the biggest barriers to utilization is being able to get to the meal site. Without the waivers that are in place now, the student has to be in person at the site to consume each meal. In practice, this means that the students have to get to the meal site, sit there and eat breakfast within a specific timeframe, leave, and then return, eat lunch, again, within a specific timeframe. For so many students, that just isn't possible. It's difficult for them to get to the meal site once, much less twice a day. Having the flexibility to have a parent and guardian go pick up more than one meal at a time, in a larger timeframe is just really essential. We've seen that it's increased access, and utilization of these programs. We know that that means more children are accessing the nutrition meals that they rely on.   And then, continuing some of the innovative partnerships and programs that have been developed, using yellow buses to continue meal deliveries, and working with restaurants, potentially. I think putting some funding into piloting those programs on a larger scale, and flushing out the details, and seeing how we can continue to support and involve school nutrition programs is really vital. Programs are feeding children this summer, and they're going to continue to do so into the next school year and throughout the year, like they always have, no matter what school looks like. And they're really providing a critical service, and we need to make sure that they have the funding, and the flexibility to do so in a way that's going to serve the most children. And serve the most children who rely on school meals for their nutrition.     Well thank you both so much for pointing out a really important problem, food insecurity in children and their families in general. But especially during the time of a crisis, like the pandemic. And thank you also for sharing the inspiring work that you and others are doing to make such a difference in the lives of children. So again, thank you both so much for joining.   Speaker Bios   Elle Evans Peterson is the director of family engagement for the North Carolina Parent Teacher Association (NC PTA), the state's oldest and largest volunteer organization, advocating for every child to reach their full potential.

Last month, the Supreme Court denied certiorari in City of Boise v. Martin, a case out of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. The case involved a challenge to Boise’s enforcement of its criminal law prohibiting public camping against the homeless. The Ninth Circuit held that the Eighth Amendment’s prohibition on cruel and unusual punishment prohibits the enforcement of the law against the homeless when there are insufficient beds available in shelters. Although the Court denied review, the Ninth Circuit’s decision raises many important questions about many issues, including the effect on the homeless and surrounding communities, ways that law enforcement might react to their inability to enforce this law, and the potential constraints placed on the approximately 1600 municipalities in the Ninth Circuit—in particular San Francisco and Los Angeles, which have significant homeless populations—in their efforts to combat homelessness and the ills associated with it.

[intro music]   Dan Keller: Hello, and welcome to Episode Thirty-six of Multiple Sclerosis Discovery, the podcast of the MS Discovery Forum. I’m your host, Dan Keller.   This week’s podcast features an extended interview with Jenny Ting, an immunologist who studies the inflammasome, a multi-protein oligomer that’s part of the innate immune system. But to begin, we’d like to tell you something about why we started the MS Discovery Forum.   MSDF, located at www.msdiscovery.org, is an online portal providing news and information about research in MS. We offer a unique combination of news and background articles written by professional science journalists, viewpoints from thought leaders and subject matter experts, and technical resources that enable sharing and analysis of information and open discussion among MS stakeholders in academia, industry, and the clinic. Membership in MSDF is free, and all content on the site is provided on an open-access basis to the entire MS community.   MSDF stands apart for its comprehensive and independent coverage of MS research. Readers can depend on MSDF to report and verify, not merely re-run press releases. MSDF’s overarching goal is to accelerate progress toward clinically useful advances.   We launched MSDF in April 2012 with the aim of filling a knowledge gap in MS research. The plan was to promote collaboration among scientists who are separated by specialized skill sets, institutional boundaries, and geography. It’s well known that these individuals attend different meetings and read different journals. And while it’s common knowledge that scientific breakthroughs and medical advances most typically result from cross fertilization of ideas, in today’s world scientists still do not easily share ideas and collaborate on solutions. We wanted to change that, and to bring thoughts, knowledge and ideas out from the lab into the open to enlighten and inform all stakeholders in the effort to cure MS, including health care providers and people affected by MS.   To that end, we employ the highest standards for independent journalistic reporting, including the use of multiple viewpoints to give a full picture of a finding’s impact. We aim to make scientific findings accessible to everyone, from busy clinicians to cutting-edge researchers to people with MS and their loved ones. We avoid short-cuts, such as the use of jargon, that get in the way of comprehensibility. We highlight the potential clinical impact of the research we cover, even when we’re covering basic research that may be years from direct clinical relevance. And we seek innovative ways to communicate important information to our audience.   [transition music]   Now to the interview. Dr. Jenny Ting is Professor of Microbiology in the Institute for Global Health & Infectious Diseases at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill School of Medicine. In addition to MS, Dr. Ting’s research interests include the role of the immune system in infection, inflammation, and cancer. Science Journalist Carol Morton caught up with Dr. Ting at a recent Keystone meeting.   Carol Morton: I appreciate your taking time out to talk to MS Discovery Forum. So we’re at the Keystone meeting on Neuroinflammation in Taos, New Mexico, and you gave a very interesting talk today.   Jenny Ting: Thank you.   Morton: So can you tell us what you’re talking about when you’re talking about the inflammasome and the particular proteins that you’ve been looking at.   Ting: The groups of proteins that we work on are cytokines, and cytokines are made by immune cells. And they have a tremendous impact on inflammatory responses. As you know, in MS there is a big immune component, so these cytokines will influence it. And in most cases cytokines activate the immune system. One of the key cytokines that we’ve studied is called IL-1, interleukin-1 beta; this is the one, for example, that causes fever, inflammation, and so forth. So it’s called interleukin-1 because it was the first one discovered, and it turns out it’s probably one of the most important ones.   So because it’s a master cytokine, and once it goes it kicks off all the other cytokines, so there’s a cascade that goes on. So it could activate other cells to make other cytokines, so it’s like a vicious cycle. Obviously, this becomes a pretty important target to think about. The process that causes this cytokine to be produced is a very big molecule that’s comprised of different proteins. And these different proteins, they are, together, called the inflammasome for inflammation large complex because “some” means large complex. Inflam- is inflammation, as in inflammasome. It’s the name given by Jürg Tschopp.   And so this process where you have this big complex, and as a result you get the cytokine called interleukin-1 beta, what happens is that interleukin-1 beta has now been implicated in so many diseases including arthritis, very rare diseases that causes a lot of inflammatory responses. It’s involved in skin allergies. It’s involved in colitis, you name it, and it’s involved in smoke-induced chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, COPD, that we see advertised on TV. So all of these have this component of this molecule.   Morton: So anything that releases IL-1 beta, inside the cell there’s a cluster of proteins that have to come together to make it.   Ting: Right.   Morton: And then it gets secreted and does its job.   Ting: Yes. And as we learned today, and actually it’s been published, but may be new to some of the audience, is that this whole complex can also be excreted in some ways into the cell, you know, pushed outside of cells so it can go from perhaps one cell to the other. So we have previously found that this can be a complex that’s membrane bound, and that’s called an exosome. So it’s both just like a minicell that goes from one cell to the next and make the next cell inflammatory as well. The speaker today showed that, in addition to that, it can also go out as a complex, perhaps naked. It seems like they are not really membrane bound, so that’s a different form. So it could be different forms that goes out from one cell to the next causing inflammasomal activation in the next cell and therefore perpetuates this IL-1 process.   Obviously, in normal hosts there must be a way to turn off this process, otherwise we would be, you know, a little ball of pus sitting on a chair. So obviously these don’t go on forever. The problem with chronic inflammatory diseases is many of these things, they don’t go on probably all the time, but they do increase. So what we did is really look at mice lacking genes that can make these proteins. This complex is usually comprised of at least three components; you knock out one and you can’t make IL-1 anymore. Actually, I should say five components. So we did that, and what we found was that if you take this out, the models of MS suggests the well-known mouse model, EAE, and another model that we’ve been really pushing, although it was initially worked on in the late 1960s and early 70s, this model of neurotoxicant-induced demyelination. In both of those models this process of inflammasome/IL-1 turned out to be bad.   So if you remove this process, the disease is much more attenuated. So that’s one of the really interesting parts about what we had found is that potentially this could be a target. And the good thing is that there is certainly some companies that have successfully made anti-IL-1s. So there is an IL-1 receptor antagonist that inhibits this process. There is an antibody against IL-1 that will inhibit this process. So certainly there are therapies, if this is true, that this is part of the MS problem that this could be used as a therapy.   The other thing we have found, which I didn’t get a chance to talk about, is that we did look at the remyelination phase and found out that, for example, IL-18 is not very good for remyelination. Of course, remyelination is what everybody would like to have, is a reparative process. And so one possibility is, can we block the IL-18 pathway, and can we get better remyelination processes. So those are some of the thoughts that we have.   Morton: So have you examined a number of the ILs from 1 to 18 or…?   Ting: No, because 18 is the product. So this inflammasome actually has many different targets. One of them is IL-1 beta; that’s the key one. Another one is IL-18. So we went from there to look at what’s downstream of the inflammasome and found out that IL-18 actually has a role both in making MS disease models worse and in reducing the extent of remyelination. So it doesn’t look like it’s a great protein to have around. So the question is can we try to inhibit this molecule.   Morton: Just to make sure that I’m clear on that: the inflammasome is a cluster of proteins that come together in an immune cell, like a T-cell, or a…   Ting: Usually it’s a macrophage or a microglia or an astroglia.   Morton: A macrophage or a microglia. And then that makes the IL…   Ting: So what you have is – I don’t know if the audience might be familiar with the coagulation pathway where you have one protein that has to be cleaved into a smaller protein. Then this protein B goes and cleaves a second protein from a bigger form to a smaller form. And the smaller form, in every case, is the mature protein that has activity. The bigger protein is the inactive form that doesn’t do anything. So this exactly the same. Pro-IL-1 has to be cleaved into IL-1. Pro-IL-18 has to be cleaved into IL-18. And what that cleavage process is this inflammasome complex producing an enzyme that will cleave these proteins.   Morton: So the inflammasome is like Edward Scissorhands running around cutting proteins making them active.   Ting: Yes, that’s a great analysis. So it’s just exactly like that. The inflammasome produces this – like you said – Edward Scissorhand that then this guy can go and prune the roses and prune the bushes, and they’re different, and they have different functions.   Morton: And it’s the starting block for the activity of the IL-1 and IL-18.   Ting: Right, so the bushes are like – if the roses are the IL-1, you can decorate it; you can give it to somebody; you can make it into a bouquet. So that’s the kind of idea. And then if you have a bush, you know, you can potentially do other things with it. Or if he’s cutting some edible plants you can use that for cooking. So that’s the whole idea. Whatever you produce has different effects. And it turns out IL-18, in our hands, looked like it’s not a good molecule. We have previously found that a cytokine called TNF, which has different roles depending on what it binds. So if it binds to TNF receptor 1, then it’s not so good. If it binds to TNF receptor 2, it actually enhances remyelination, so again, something you want.   And there’s recent talks and there are small molecules where people tried to activate the TNF receptor 2 pathway, and they found that that really enhances the remyelination process. It’s kind of really neat; if you can dissect these pathways well enough, then you might be able to use drugs to target MS.   Morton: So what are the next questions that you’re asking? Where are you going from here?   Ting: So we have a number of directions. Certainly, like I say, I raised the concept of IL-18; so can we target that molecule? In our own lab we’re also looking at several other pathways. So we have found a pathway that’s really important for cell-cell interaction that’s important for MS activation. And the molecules are called plexins and semaphorins. And this is a pair of proteins that seems to activate the immune system especially during MS. So we’ve done that in disease models, and we actually produce a blocker of that pathway. And we have treated mice, and they look much better. We showed that when they’re going through relapse, we can actually prevent them from coming back with a relapse.   So, very similar to some other MS drugs that are on the market, we’d like to think about this as additional possibilities. So those are some of the things that we’re doing.   Morton: What cells are these on?   Ting: These are T-cells and dendritic cells so they’re…   Morton: They’re talking to each other.   Ting: Yes, exactly, they’re talking to each other. And in an MS situation they talk to each other, they activate T-cells, which destroys the myelin. So if you can block that interaction, many of the drugs that are used for MS actually are targeting exactly that interaction pathway. For example, Tysabri is one that’s not so much dendritic cells and T-cells, but it reduces T-cell migration through the vasculature into the blood brain barrier. So that’s one of them where they block T-cell activation. So we are trying to block T-cell activation as well, but at the face of these two cell types.   Morton: If the inflammasomes, if they were superheroes or characters in an Oscar-winning movie, what would their personalities be, do you think?   Ting: I think they would be very powerful because they impact a lot of disease processes, yet they have very strong roles so that, when they’re used properly, they can defend against all sorts of stuff. Whey they’re used improperly, they can really cause a lot harm. So if they’re a superhero, people always say Batman has a dark side, right, a really dark side and a really good side. Maybe that’s what they are.   Morton: That’s a good analogy.   Ting: They’re not like Superman because Superman seems like all good.   [transition music]   Keller: Thank you for listening to Episode Thirty-Six of Multiple Sclerosis Discovery.
