B7-H4 as a Therapeutic Target in Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma

BUFFALO, NY - December 4, 2024 – A new #editorial was #published in Oncotarget's Volume 15 on November 22, 2024, entitled “B7-H4: A potential therapeutic target in adenoid cystic carcinoma." Researchers Luana Guimaraes de Sousa and Renata Ferrarotto from The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center made an important discovery about adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC), a rare and aggressive cancer of the secretory glands. The study found that B7-H4, an inhibitory immune checkpoint, helps ACC tumors avoid attacks from the immune system. This discovery could lead to new treatments for ACC, which currently has very limited options for patients, especially when the cancer spreads to other organs. ACC is known for behaving in two distinct ways. The aggressive form, called ACC-I, spreads quickly to organs like the liver and lungs and leads to a short survival time of approximately three years. The less aggressive form, ACC-II, grows more slowly and often allows patients to live much longer, sometimes over 20 years. However, treatment options for both forms are limited, and once the cancer spreads, it becomes difficult to treat. The study showed that the protein B7-H4 is found at high levels in the aggressive ACC-I tumors. This protein blocks immune cells from entering the tumor, allowing the cancer to grow without being attacked by the immune system. Patients with high levels of B7-H4 in their tumors were found to have worse survival outcomes. To explore possible treatments, the researchers tested a new drug called AZD8205, designed to specifically target and block B7-H4. In preclinical tests on mice, the drug showed remarkable success. Tumors derived from patients shrank in every case, and in many cases of aggressive ACC, the tumors disappeared completely. Importantly, the drug had little effect on less aggressive ACC-II tumors, which have lower levels of B7-H4. This shows that the treatment is highly specific to tumors with high B7-H4 levels. These results have already led to clinical trials that are testing similar drugs in patients with ACC. “These trials represent attractive, rationale therapeutic opportunities for patients facing this rare, aggressive, and chemo-refractory disease, for which no systemic therapy is currently available.” In conclusion, this discovery represents a significant breakthrough in ACC research, identifying B7-H4 as a crucial factor in cancer growth and immune evasion. By leading the way for personalized treatments, it offers promising new therapeutic options and the potential for improved outcomes for ACC patients.

Arina Puzriakova: What is a polygenic disorder?

In this explainer episode, we've asked Arina Puzriakova, Scientific Curator at Genomics England, to explain what a polygenic disorder is. You can also find a series of short videos explaining some of the common terms you might encounter about genomics on our YouTube channel. If you've got any questions, or have any other topics you'd like us to explain, feel free to contact us on info@genomicsengland.co.uk. You can read the transcript below or download it here: https://www.genomicsengland.co.uk/assets/documents/Podcast-transcripts/What-is-a-polygenic-disorder.docx Florence: What is a polygenic disorder? I'm joined by Arina Puzriakova, Scientific Curator for Genomics England to find out more. So, Arina, first things first. How can our genes affect our health?   Arina: So, genes are short sections of DNA that contain information that the cells in your body need in order to make proteins. Each gene carries the instructions for making a specific protein, and each protein performs a different task that allows the body to develop and function properly, depending on the genes that we inherit from our parents. Also determines our unique physical features such as our eye colour, hair colour, and height.  When a gene contains a change that disrupts the gene's instructions, also known as a gene variant, in some cases, this can lead to the production of a defective protein or prevents a protein from being made altogether. A missing protein or one that is not working properly can have a knock-on effect on how the body functions and this can result in health issues or the development of a genetic disorder.  Florence: So then how can a gene variant lead to a disorder?   Arina: So the genetics of each disorder are unique. In some cases, a change in a single gene is enough to cause a genetic disorder, and these are known as monogenic disorders. These conditions often occur in childhood and tend to cause severe illness. individually, they are more rare affecting a smaller number of people in the population, and usually they run in families as parents pass the damaging variance onto their children.  But these changes can also happen spontaneously without a known cause. An example of a monogenic disorder, which some may be familiar with, is cystic fibrosis. Cystic fibrosis affects one in every 2,500 babies born in the UK, meaning that there's about 11,000 people living with cystic fibrosis.  Florence: So, we've just talked through monogenic disorders. What do we mean by polygenic disorder?   Arina: So polygenic disorders are on the other end of the spectrum for disorders.  They are caused by the combined effects of multiple different genes. Individually, each gene has a very small effect on causing the disease, but many variations in different genes can act together to have a great impact on individual's susceptibility to that condition. Environmental and behavioural factors such as your lifestyle and diet also often have an effect.  Polygenic disorders are much more common, typically affecting millions of people in the population, and they're usually diagnosed in adulthood.   Florence: Could you give me an example of a polygenic disorder?   Arina: A common example of a polygenic disorder is type two diabetes. It affects almost 4 million people in the UK.  So this means that we know there are many genetic variants that could have made these individuals more susceptible to diabetes, but there are also other factors such as age or being overweight that could have increased their risk.  Florence: Are there specific challenges when it comes to diagnosing or treating polygenic disorders?  Arina: So, if I start with monogenic disorders, these are much easier to test for because we simply need to look for the presence or the absence of a faulty gene in order to determine whether someone is a carrier of a genetic disorder. On the other hand, testing for a polygenic disorder is a lot more complex as they are influenced by the combined effects of many genes.  Meaning there is no single genetic test or treatment that will work for all patients with the same condition. We need large and diverse groups of patients to study in order to accurately determine which genes are important and which ones are not.  And this can be challenging to obtain. Also accurately measuring and comparing lifetime environmental factors and exposures further complicates the assessment.  Another challenge with polygenic disorders is that even though they can cluster in families, the inheritance is not as clear cut or predictable as it is with monogenic disorders. Carrying a specific combination of genetic variants that are already known to be associated with polygenic disorder does not necessarily mean that you will definitely develop that disorder.  However, this information can be used to calculate something known as a polygenic risk score, and this provides an estimate for the risk of developing polygenic disease at some point in life based on individual's unique genetic profile.  Florence: And why can knowing apologetic risk score be helpful?  Arina: So, by being informed about the probability of developing a particular polygenic disease, an individual can make behaviour or lifestyles changes that could help reduce their risk. To go back to the previous example, somebody who is more likely to develop type two diabetes based on their genetic makeup can do things like maintain a healthy weight. And eat a healthy diet to help reduce their risk of developing type two diabetes in the future.  Florence: That was Arina Puzriakova explaining what we mean by polygenic disorder.

I. Lately we've been discussing some of the ethics around genetics and embryo selection. One question that comes up in these debates is - are we claiming that some people are genetically inferior to other people? If we're trying to select schizophrenia genes out of the population - even setting aside debates about whether this would work and whether we can do it non-coercively - isn't this still in some sense claiming that schizophrenics are genetically inferior? And do we really want to do this? I find it clarifying to set aside schizophrenia for a second and look at cystic fibrosis. Cystic fibrosis is a simple single-gene disorder. A mutation in this gene makes lung mucus too thick. People born with the disorder spend their lives fighting off various awful lung infections before dying early, usually in their 20s to 40s. There's a new $300,000/year medication that looks promising, but we've yet to see how much it can increase life expectancy. As far as I know, there's nothing good about cystic fibrosis. It's just an awful mutation that leads to a lifetime of choking on your own lung mucus. So: are people with cystic fibrosis genetically inferior, or not? https://www.astralcodexten.com/p/nobody-can-make-you-feel-genetically

Een groep onderzoekers gaat maar liefst tien jaar twee piepkleine eiwitjes bestuderen, met de hoop dat ze een aantal hardnekkige ziektes daarna beter kunnen behandelen. De keuze voor juist deze twee eiwitten heeft een goede reden: ze spelen een belangrijke rol in de ziekte Cystic fibrosis (CF) en Parkinson. Waar ze specifiek naar gaan kijken dat zijn de begeleiders van deze eiwitten: de zogeheten chaperonnes die de eiwitten in elkaar zetten. Want juist bij het vouwen en vormen van de eiwitten kan een heleboel misgaan. Snappen ze dit proces voor deze twee eiwitten, dan levert dat ook meteen belangrijke kennis op voor een heleboel andere aandoeningen.  Onderzoeker Ineke Braakman van de Universiteit Utrecht vertelt dat het uiteindelijke doel is om van wieg tot graf te begrijpen wat deze eiwitten allemaal doormaken en door wie ze worden begeleid, om ze uiteindelijk beter te kunnen helpen of manipuleren.  Lees hier meer over het onderzoek: Zwaartekrachtsubsidie voor FLOW: “Wij beschikken straks over het lot van eiwitten”See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this explainer episode, we've asked Ana Lisa Tavares, Clinical Lead for rare disease research at Genomics England, to explain what a rare condition is, in less than 10 minutes. You can also find a series of short videos explaining some of the common terms you might encounter about genomics on our YouTube channel If you've got any questions, or have any other topics you'd like us to explain, feel free to contact us on info@genomicsengland.co.uk.   You can read the transcript below or download it here: https://files.genomicsengland.co.uk/documents/Podcast-transcripts/What-is-a-rare-condition.docx   Naimah: What is a rare condition? Today I'm joined by Ana Lisa Tavares, Clinical Lead for rare disease research at Genomics England, and she's going to explain more. Ana Lisa: There are thousands of rare conditions. I hesitate to say a number as we're learning all the time, so this keeps changing. There are estimated to be perhaps around 10,000 different rare conditions, as an order of magnitude. Many rare conditions start in childhood, 75% or three quarters affect children. A little over 10% affect adults, only adults, and some, around 20% can start in children or adults. Naimah: So, what makes a condition rare? Ana Lisa: A rare condition can be defined as affecting less than one in 2,000 people in the general population. This is a definition that's used in Europe. Different parts of the world use slightly different numbers and definitions, so for example, the number of people with a rare condition living in that country, there isn't one single universal definition. The important part I think is that this is a practical way to help shine a spotlight on rare conditions, which collectively affect a lot of people, and the particular challenges in making diagnoses and finding treatments for rare conditions. So together, it's estimated 7% of people are affected by a rare disease in their lifetime, or one in 17, so that means that there are 3 and a half million people in the UK affected by a rare disease, and in the world, probably somewhere between 250 to 450 million people, so perhaps 350 million people, a really huge number. When you look into these numbers, there are rare conditions that are much more common than others. So, 80% of people with a rare condition have one of the 150 most commonly occurring rare conditions. Cystic fibrosis would be an example that many people will have heard of, and if you look at those numbers from a different angle, 85% of rare conditions affect less than one in a million people, so are very rare, and it's important to bring together these different voices to solve some of the common challenges. Naimah: Can you explain to me how these differ from more common conditions? Ana Lisa: The simplest answer is that they are defined by the frequency, so how often they happen in the general population, and one reason for grouping together thousands of rare conditions is to highlight some of the particular challenges. This includes delays in getting a correct diagnosis that can often take years, an increased chance of a misdiagnosis before getting to an accurate diagnosis, and treatment challenges, as 95% of rare conditions don't have a specific treatment. This is a very good question, and I would like to note that it's also an artificial distinction to some extent. So, human conditions have a range of underlying causes that can be broadly grouped together, including genetic and environmental, such as a viral infection. However, it gets complicated, for example, a proportion of common conditions that may have many different causes will have a genetic component, so for example causing an early onset familial form of a condition, such as diabetes. And in fact, genetic causes may give or can give the clue or the key that's necessary to develop a new drug therapy that can then help many people with the condition, so those that may have a rare genetic cause and those that have a more common cause, such as for high cholesterol. So, one other way that rare and common conditions can differ, not just based on frequency, is the causes of those rare conditions and common conditions. I'll start by saying that there are lots of rare conditions that aren't genetic, and there are common conditions that do have a genetic basis, so none of these observations are absolute, but there's a spectrum of different causes for rare and common conditions. So, I would say there are more rare conditions that are caused by a single genetic cause, and there are more common conditions that might be caused by many very small genetic effects acting together, and also many different environmental causes. Naimah: So, are rare conditions always genetic? Ana Lisa: The short answer is no. Many rare conditions do have a genetic cause, perhaps 70 to 80% of rare conditions, so if you had 10 people with different rare conditions together in a room, the chances are that 8 of them will have a genetic component to their rare condition. And when we talk about genetic causes, these can of course be very varied, from a single letter change in the DNA code to an extra chromosome with several hundred genes. Rare conditions include ones without any known genetic cause, so for example some rare infectious diseases and some rare cancers. And I think it's important to say that there's a lot that we collectively don't know yet about rare conditions, so our understanding is incomplete and imperfect, and there's still a huge amount to understand. Naimah: And it would be good to understand what challenges patients with rare conditions might face. Ana Lisa: There are many challenges in achieving an accurate diagnosis, getting well organised, coordinated care, and the fact that 95% of rare conditions don't have a specific treatment. There's a big impact on emotional wellbeing for those with rare conditions and their parents and carers. Genomic Alliance did a survey showing that 88% of those with a rare condition felt emotionally exhausted from having their rare condition, and there are big impacts on other aspects, such as education, employment, etc.  Naimah: And what do you think the future looks like for the treatment of patients with rare conditions? Ana Lisa: So, this is a huge question with many answers. I think key is coordinated care, and I'm personally really excited about the potential for new rare therapies to be made for particular types of genetic causes that perhaps one day could be modified to treat many different types of rare conditions. To me, this would be incredibly powerful and would be a dream to transform therapies for rare conditions. Naimah: That was Ana Lisa Tavares explaining what a rare condition is.

Shall I stop for a couple of weeks and start again?   Anonymous: Hi Dr Cabral, Thank you for all the work you do! I have SIBO and am doing the CBO protocol and will be doing the "killing" phase for the 90 days followed by the 90 day "repair" phase. During both of these phases do we need to remove dairy, gluten & alcohol completely? I have a celebratory event in the later part of the year and was hoping to enjoy 1-2 cocktails, but unsure if this will ruin the entire protocol. Any advice?   Kelsi: hi dr. cabral! thank you i'm advance. ive struggled with mild cystic acne for many years, however, lately ive been getting a couple that somehow turn infected. they get incredibly swollen, have to be lanced and the culture comes back positive for staph infection. i avoid antibiotics at all costs but with staph (as ive listened to every podcast), you've stated this is one occasion that it's necessary…so i do. of course, i take S. bouldarii while on them. i'm just looking for confirmation that i'm on the right path. this is my plan. 21 day detox. CBO protocol / finisher heavy metal detox ive also ordered the stress mood and metabolism test to see my hormone levels. also, am i right to take the antibiotic if i have staph in the future?   Julia: Hi Dr Cabral! Just asking because i have been attempting to take an at home hormone blood test that was purchased from another company- before i discovered you. I want to do the test however i have an iud and have no menstruation in order to track where I'm at in my cycle. I started taking ovulation tests to check my LH in attempt to track my cycle but find it is not consistent. Do your blood tests require tracking cycle? Also any tips on finally testing my self! This stemmed from low libido. Im 34 yr old and feel like Im 70   Stacey: Hello Dr. Cabral I hope you are having such a beautiful and blessed day . I have a question on DNRS brain retraining . What's your opinion on this way of healing ? I recently bought the program and going to start once summer vacation is over with .

Cystic fibrosis is a rare disease that has been an area of significant innovation. New therapies have provided life-changing treatments for most patients, but about 10 percent of people with the condition don't benefit from these treatments because of the specific mutations underlying their condition. We spoke to Jamie Chang, senior medical director at the contract research organization Rho, about the advances that have been made to treat cystic fibrosis, the treatment gap that remains, and what's working its way through the pipeline that may change that.

Thank you for joining us for our 2nd Cabral HouseCall of the weekend! I'm looking forward to sharing with you some of our community's questions that have come in over the past few weeks…   Joesph: Hey dr. I've been a huge fan for about 4 years now and I'm feeling great I take the dns and the dfvb everyday. I'm 50 years old and very active I play sports a few days a week and hit the gym a few days a week I had my testosterone checked a couple months ago thinking it might be too high since I'm so active and always feel pretty' good. When I got my results back it was the complete opposite it was very low only a 40 my health coach thought I need to work on lowering my stress so put me on adrenal sooth Is there any other steps I should be taking and when should I test again. Thanks so much for all you are doing   Wendy: Hi Dr. Cabral, I was diagnosed with HES (hypereosiniphilic Syndrome) in early 2021. My body produces too many white blood cells and attacks my skin and organs. It's a rare autoimmune disease that I'm told there is no cure. My skin is my main issue and I have been on many meds and antihistamines. Steroids was the double edged sword that was the worst as it helped with my hives/itch but gave me cataracts, thinning hair and weight gain. I finally tapered down to zero steroids and one immune suppressant that seemed to work until my joints started to hurt me so bad I felt like I was a lot older than 55. So I tapered off those and am now only on my vitamins, and healthy eating. My rash is coming back and nights are becoming sleepless again. Please advise with any advice. Thank you!   Jessica: Hi Dr. Cabral! Thank you for all the content that you put out. I have learned so much and am so grateful for everything to do to help the community!My question is about cyclic acne specifically on my back. I have heard that your gut health is directly linked to your skin. I have run a few 7 day detoxes and noticed it it improves when I run the detox. I also have noticed that the acne only shows up in the winter when I am exposed to less sun (I live in Colorado). When I have a tan and more sun exposure it almost completely disappears. I am taking about 2000 IUs of vitamin D in capsule form/day, have recently quit drink alcohol and have been working towards healing my gut. I was hoping you might have some insight on what is going on and how I can heal this issue. Thank you.   Chelsea: Hi Dr. Cabral! Question about infrared saunas. Whenever I use my sauna bag, my Oura ring detects a workout and calorie burn of 200 cals or so. Is this real? If so what exactly is happening here and is it the same stimulus as a workout and why? Second question unrelated - what's your take on hydrogen water? And when you travel, is there a portable filter you use, or do you buy spring water?   Anonymous: Hi Dr. Cabral, I have been listening to the podcast for years and it transformed my life. I realized that I am a vata-pitta dosha and that I had a candida and bacterial imbalance that has led to leaky gut, digestive discomfort, sensitivity to foods and environmnent, skin issues, hair loss. I started taking neem tea two months ago to help with the bacterial imbalance and it has been super helpful. I would love to purchase the CBO protocol but I won't be able to afford it anytime soon. Do you think the neem will be enough to get me to heal, in combination with diet, meditation and sleep? If not what else would you recommend in the meantime...until i am able to purchase the CBO protocol. Appreciate all you and your team do!   Thank you for tuning into this weekend's Cabral HouseCalls and be sure to check back tomorrow for our Mindset & Motivation Monday show to get your week started off right!   - - - Show Notes and Resources: StephenCabral.com/2585 - - - Get a FREE Copy of Dr. Cabral's Book: The Rain Barrel Effect - - - Join the Community & Get Your Questions Answered: CabralSupportGroup.com - - - Dr. Cabral's Most Popular At-Home Lab Tests: > Complete Minerals & Metals Test (Test for mineral imbalances & heavy metal toxicity) - - - > Complete Candida, Metabolic & Vitamins Test (Test for 75 biomarkers including yeast & bacterial gut overgrowth, as well as vitamin levels) - - - > Complete Stress, Mood & Metabolism Test (Discover your complete thyroid, adrenal, hormone, vitamin D & insulin levels) - - - > Complete Food Sensitivity Test (Find out your hidden food sensitivities) - - - > Complete Omega-3 & Inflammation Test (Discover your levels of inflammation related to your omega-6 to omega-3 levels) - - - Get Your Question Answered On An Upcoming HouseCall: StephenCabral.com/askcabral - - - Would You Take 30 Seconds To Rate & Review The Cabral Concept?

VIDEOS: Paul Marik speaks about the silencing of doctors who want to speak out about the COVID vaccines (18:00) Jeffrey Sachs: US biotech cartel behind Covid origins and cover-up ( start at 0:36) Neil Oliver – ‘…digital enslavement is coming…' (19:06) New Rule: A Unified Theory of Wokeness | Real Time with Bill Maher (HBO)   Quinoa-Based Diet Stabilizes Blood Sugar In Older Adults University of Barcelona (Spain), October 2, 2022 According to a recent study published in the journal Nutrients, a quinoa-based diet was able to normalize glucose metabolism, and this effect was more pronounced among elderly people with impaired glucose tolerance, suggesting that quinoa is a healthy pseudocereal that is far more beneficial and nutritious than other cereal products. This study examined the effects of a quinoa-rich diet on mediating hyperglycemia and other metabolic risk factors. Glycemic data was collected by glucose sensors operating over extended periods of time with regular prespecified recording points that could be analyzed using the functional data analysis approach to yield glucose concentrations over time. All of the participants in this pilot study were aged 65+, without a history of diabetes, and fasting glucose levels were between 100-125 mg/dL. The participants ate grains, legumes, and tuber daily while also consuming quinoa, quinoa flakes, and quinoa flour as well as biscuits, brioche, sponge cake, baguettes, sliced bread, and pasta which all had a quinoa content of 70% or greater. During the initial four weeks, the participants consumed their regular diets, then they were switched to the quinoa-based diet for the following four weeks, during this time all grains, grain-based products, legumes, and tubers were substituted with quinoa-based products without changing the overall composition of nutrients with exception to the cereal. During the study, all food products were provided to the participants who commonly consumed them. Additionally, eight recipes were introduced to the participants using quinoa substitutions. At the beginning of the study most of the participants had an overweight profile, and hypertension, 45% had high blood lipids, and 33% had one or more close family members with disease. At the end of the study glucose levels were reduced before and after the quinoa-based diet, and glycated hemoglobin levels were reduced by the end of the study, as was weight and waist circumference by slight decreases. Additional analysis revealed that multiple nutrients were associated with enhanced or reduced glucose concentrations: Gamma-tocopherol, soluble fiber insoluble dietary fiber, and ORAC were associated with enhanced glucose concentrations, while fatty acids, fructose, citric acid, cellulose, phytic acid, omega-6 PUFA, theobromine, and the proportion of total energy from proteins had a link with reduced glucose concentrations. The nutritional profile of quinoa accounts for the difference in nutritional intake between the two diet phases. Consuming more carbs increases insulin levels, and fat storage and reduces the metabolic rate causing a cycle of fat accumulation. A high-fat diet with the same amount of calories reduces insulin secretion by triggering fat turnover in the cells making free fatty acids available for use in energy production. Dietary proteins also enhance the building of lean muscle during weight loss which also helps to expend more energy and improve the overall body composition. Mediterranean diet improves immunotherapy response rates and progression-free survival in advanced melanoma, new study suggests Eating a Mediterranean diet, rich in fibre, mono-unsaturated fatty acids and polyphenols, has been associated with improved immunotherapy response rates and progression-free survival in advanced melanoma patients. University Medical Center Groningen (Netherlands), October 9, 2022 Eating a Mediterranean diet, rich in fibre, mono-unsaturated fatty acids and polyphenols, has been associated with improved immunotherapy response rates and progression-free survival in advanced melanoma patients, a new study has found.1 Experts anticipate that the diet will play an important role in the success of immunotherapy and trials are being expanded to investigate outcomes for different tumour types, including digestive cancers. A Mediterranean diet, containing mono-and polyunsaturated fats from olive oil, nuts and fish, polyphenols and fibre from vegetables, fruit, and wholegrains, was significantly associated with an improved response to immunotherapy drugs called Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors (ICIs). ICIs, which have been highly successful in treating melanoma, work by blocking immune system checkpoints, which then force the body's own T-cells to attack cancers.2 The new multi-centre study by researchers from the UK and the Netherlands, recorded the dietary intake of 91 patients with advanced melanoma, who were treated with ICI drugs and monitored their progress with regular radiographic response check-ups. As well as having a significant association with overall response rate, a Mediterranean diet was significantly associated with progression-free survival at 12 months. The study also found that eating whole grains and legumes reduced the likelihood of developing drug induced immune-related side effects, such as colitis. In contrast, red and processed meat was associated with a higher probability of immune-related side effects. Music practice can sharpen the brain University of St Andrews (Scotland) October 1, 2022 A new study by researchers at the University of St. Andrews in Scotland concludes that people who practice playing musical instruments have sharper brains because they pick up mistakes in their performance and fix them more quickly than other people. Writing about their work in a recent issue of the journal Neuropsychologia, psychologist Doctor Ines Jentzsch and colleagues suggest playing music may help guard against mental decline, either through age or disease. “Our study shows that even moderate levels of musical activity can benefit brain functioning.” For their study, the researchers compared the mental performance of musicians versus non-musicians as they challenged them to complete simple conflict tasks. There were 36 young adult participants in total, divided into four groups of 8 to 10, according to the number of accumulated hours of practicing a musical instrument over their lifetime (from “high,” over 5,000 hours, through “intermediate,” 2,000 to 5,000 hours and “low,” between 200 and 2,000 hours, to “no,” under 200 hours). The researchers tested each participant's mental ability in a single session that lasted about 2 hours. During the session, they measured the participant's reaction times to the simple mental tasks and also took various physiological measurements. Their results show that the amount of musical practice was positively linked to response speed – the more-practiced musicians responded faster than those with little or no musical training, with no loss in accuracy. “This result suggests that higher levels of musical training might result in more efficient information processing in general […] and confirms earlier reports indicating a positive link between mental speed and musical ability,” write the authors. However, what this study particularly highlights is that more hours of musical practice were also linked with “better engagement of cognitive control processes,” which came through in more efficient error and conflict detection, and reduced levels of post-error interference and post-conflict adjustments. In other words, the more practice hours musicians had accumulated, the faster their reaction times in completing mental challenges, the better they were able to recognize and correct mistakes, and the less likely they were to go back and adjust their responses when they made mistakes. “The research suggests that musical activity could be used as an effective intervention to slow, stop or even reverse age- or illness-related decline in mental functioning.” 3 Weeks Of Vitamin C Supplements Reduces Inflammation In Cystic Fibrosis Patients Oregon State University, October 6, 2022 Cystic fibrosis, being the aggressive disease that it is, often presents new clinical obstacles tied to treatment. Now, a new study by Oregon State University researchers may help improve patient outcomes, revealing that CF patients who take vitamin C supplements can help increase their uptake of vitamin E, which reduces inflammation. “Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disease that is associated with increased inflammation, and like many inflammatory diseases, it comes with a large amount of oxidative stress,” says Maret Traber of OSU's Linus Pauling Institute in a university release. Traber also notes that CF patients have difficulty absorbing fat, limiting their body's ability to use fat-soluble vitamins like vitamin E. This generally means that this patient population has to take in more fat than an average person to break even. Studies have connected vitamin C to reducing inflammation and making use of oxidized vitamin E that the body wouldn't otherwise absorb. The team found that after 3.5 weeks of daily vitamin C supplementation at a dose of 1,000 milligrams, the patients had lower concentrations of malondialdehyde (MDA), which is a marker of oxidative stress. Additionally, they noticed that vitamin E wasn't leaving the bloodstream as quickly. These findings aren't just promising for CF patients, but also for smokers and people with metabolic syndrome since they normally also struggle with oxidative stress in their bodies, which may also suggest that vitamin C and E supplements could help them find relief. Traber also explains that while this study reinforces that getting ample vitamin C and E through a varied and nutritious diet is important, the effects have more to do with adding high amounts of vitamin C to a healthy diet. “This study used vitamin C far in excess of what someone can easily obtain from the diet,” Traber concludes. “One thousand milligrams is the equivalent of 15 oranges or four or five medium bell peppers. But the research does suggest a high dosage may be beneficial in inflammatory conditions.” Link Found Between High-Fat, High-Calorie Diet and Pancreas Cancer University of California Los Angeles, Oct. 1, 2022 Researchers at UCLA's Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center (JCCC) have found that mice made obese by being given high-calorie, high-fat diets (HFCD) developed abnormally high numbers of lesions known as pancreatic intraepithelial neoplasias (PanINs), which are known to be precursors to pancreas cancer. This is the first study to show a direct causative link in an animal model between obesity and risk of this deadly cancer. Cancer of the pancreas (scientifically known as pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma or PaCa) is one of the most deadly forms of the disease in humans. Overall five-year survival rates are approximately three to five percent and the average survival period after diagnosis is just four to six months. It is a particularly aggressive disease and often beyond the point of effective treatment by the time symptoms appear. Dr. Eibl and colleagues set out to develop diet-induced obesity and development of pancreas cancer in a set of mice and then compare them to another set of mice that are genetically identical but not given a high-fat, high-calorie diet. Obesity in these mice resembles several important clinical features of human obesity such as weight gain and disturbance of metabolism, and this mouse model was ideal for unraveling any underlying biological mechanisms of pancreas cancer that are put in motion by obesity. Mice that ate the normal diet gained an average of approximately 7.2 grams, plus or minus approximately 2.8 grams over 14 months. Mice that ate the high-fat, high-calorie diet gained an average of 15.9 grams, plus or minus 3.2grams. Mice fed the normal diet had mostly normal pancreases with very few scattered PanIN lesions. Mice fed the high-fat, high-calorie diet had significantly more PanIN lesions and fewer overall healthy pancreases. The study showed that the mice fed a diet high in fats and calories gained significantly more weight, had abnormalities of their metabolism and increased insulin levels, and had marked pancreatic tissue inflammation and development of PanIN lesions. These observations strongly suggest that such a diet leads to weight gain, metabolism disturbances, can cause pancreas inflammation and promotes pancreas lesions that are precursors to cancer. “The development of these lesions in mice is very similar to what happens in humans,” Dr. Eibl said. “These lesions take a long time to develop into cancer, so there is enough time for cancer preventive strategies, such as changing to a lower fat, lower calorie diet, to have a positive effect.” The vegetable that treated gunshot wounds National Geographic, October 9, 2022 One of the most expensive meals ever eaten—barring Cleopatra's show-stopping vinegar cocktail with dissolved pearl—was an onion. At least, the eater thought it was an onion. He was a (nameless) sailor in the 1630s, on board a ship transporting a cargo of tulip bulbs at the height of the European tulip craze. Now nicknamed tulipomania, this was the dot-com bubble of the day, in which speculators drove the price of tulip bulbs, recently introduced from the seraglios of the Middle East, to unsustainably astronomical heights. (Predictably, the market crashed, leaving many tulip investors ruined.) The clueless sailor, who said only that he thought his meal remarkably blah-tasting for an onion, had chowed down on a bulb of Semper Augustus, then worth 5,500 florins—a fortune on the open market. It's an interesting story because, frankly, it's hard to miss an onion. Onions—members of the odoriferous Allium genus that includes some 700 species, among them garlic, leeks, shallots, chives, rakkyo, and kurrats—are crammed with smelly, eye-stinging, volatile chemicals that are distinctly absent from tulip bulbs. Collectively, these pack such a powerful sensory punch that onions and relatives have an historical reputation for effectively fending off everything from devils, demons, and vampires to witches, serpents, tigers, the black plague, and the common cold. Onions, traditionally, have also been known as fighting food. Onions were fed to Greek athletes in training for the brutally competitive Olympics, and gladiators were massaged with onion juice before entering the arena. The Roman legions, who had a passion for all things onion, distributed alliums across Europe. (One authority claims that it's possible to follow the advance of the Roman Empire by plotting range maps for garlic.) For the legionnaires, alliums were not only tasty, but militarily helpful, believed to promote strength and courage in face of the enemy. In ancient times, gamecocks and warhorses were fed garlic to boost their fighting spirit; and in Aristophanes's 5th-century BCE play The Knights, warriors stuff themselves with garlic in preparation for battle. Garlic, in Rome, was dedicated to Mars, the god of war. Onions themselves are fine-tuned biological fighting machines. The compounds generated when an onion is bitten, nibbled, sliced, chopped, diced, or otherwise disrupted are the onion's anti-pest defense mechanism, a phenomenal battery of repellants nasty enough to discourage most onion attackers from ever coming back again. When onion cells are damaged, the onion goes into red alert, releasing enzymes that act upon ordinarily benign sulfur-containing organic compounds to produce a barrage of malodorous, painful, and highly reactive molecules. It doesn't pay to mess with an onion. The Onion Equivalent of Tear Gas Some allium-generated chemicals simply smell awful: onions and garlic, for example, contain some of the same sulfurous ingredients found in skunk spray. (American cowboys once called onions skunk eggs.) Others make us cry. An abused onion undergoes chemical reactions that lead to the production of syn-propanethial-S-oxide—known as a lachrymator, from the Latin lacrima meaning “tear.” Fast-acting and potent, syn-propanethial-S-oxide, is the onion equivalent of tear gas. When syn-propanethial-S-oxide hits the cornea of the eye—which happens within seconds of chopping knife meeting onion—it activates nerve endings that, detecting an irritant, send a signal to the lachrymal glands to pump out tears to wash the invader away. And well it should; onion irritant is really irritating. Chemist and onion expert Eric Block compares its effect to a punch in the eye-socket. Combined with the water in tears, syn-propanethial-S-oxide breaks down to make sulfuric acid, which is something nobody wants in the eye. Solutions to the onion-slicing lachrymator problem—none of them totally foolproof—include goggles, fans, or dicing up your onion under cold running water. Mean as onions are, they've got a lot going for them. Onion and garlic juices are both mild antibiotics. In the Civil War, onion juice was routinely used to treat gunshot wounds. General Grant, deprived of it, sent a testy memo to the War Department in Washington: “I will not move my troops without onions.” (They promptly sent him three cartloads.) Garlic was used as an antiseptic in both World Wars I and II. Modern research shows that these weren't bad picks in a medical pinch: garlic juice, for example, inhibits Streptococcus, Staphylococcus, and the causative agents of typhus and dysentery. Alliums, if not optimal, were certainly better than nothing. Healing Properties of Onions Today onions are considered more than food. They're now touted as nutraceuticals—a portmanteau word cobbled together from “nutrient” and “pharmaceutical”—indicating that as well as adding flavor to spaghetti sauce and stew, they also have substantial medicinal and health-promoting qualities. Onions not only inhibit bacterial and fungal growth, but are laden with antioxidants, effective at protecting us from cancers and cardiovascular disease. Various chemicals in the versatile onion have been found to ameliorate everything from allergies and asthma to diabetes; and onions are lush sources of vitamins and minerals. Foodwise, it's hard to imagine living without onions. Onions are essential components of any number of global cuisines. Perhaps the best plug for the culinary versatility of the onion is the story of the 18th-century French caterer who-faced with hungry customers and nothing in the larder-served up a pair of leather gloves, shredded, and sautéed with onions, mustard, and vinegar. The recipients thought it delicious. Nowadays we may soon even be able to have all the pleasures and perks of onions without the pain. Colin Leady and colleagues, of New Zealand's Crop and Food Research, along with collaborators in Japan, have come up with a tear-free onion. It was created using a gene-silencing technology in which the gene for the enzyme that generates the onion lachrymator is shut down. The result is an onion with all the flavorful and nutritional bennies of a conventional onion, but without the tear-inducing syn-propanethial-S-oxide.
