Dr. Karine Gaelle Le Roch is a Professor in the Department of Molecular, Cell and Systems Biology and Director of the Center for Infectious Disease and Vector Research at the University of California, Riverside. Karine's research focuses on parasites, and much of her work has focused on the parasite that causes malaria in humans. She is working to better understand the life cycle of the parasite, how the molecular components in its body work together, and how the parasite's function can be disrupted after a person has been infected in order to treat and cure malaria. When she's not doing science, Karine enjoys sailing in the San Diego Bay, skiing in the winter, spending time with her son, and watching him play soccer. She received her BA in Biochemistry and Microbiology from the University Paris-Sorbonne, her MS in host-parasite interactions between Oxford University in the UK and the University of Lille in France, and her PhD in Parasitology and host-parasite interactions from the University Paris-Sorbonne. Afterwards, she conducted postdoctoral research at The Scripps Research Institute in La Jolla and subsequently she was an Institute Fellow at the Genomics Institute of the Novartis Research Foundation. Karine joined the faculty at UCR in 2006. She has earned various honors and awards throughout her career, including the Academic Senate Regent Award for Outstanding Research from the University of California, she was a participant in the Provost Faculty Leadership Program at UCR and the University of California's Women's Initiative for Professional Development. In our interview, Karine shares more about her life and science.

What if the secret to longevity lies not only in our genes but in our lifestyle choices and our resilience? Welcome back to another engaging episode of Inflammation Nation. This time, we take a leap into the subject of aging and resilience, zooming in on how this gradual process impacts our bodies differently and at varying rates. Listen closely as we unmask the markers of resilience in your body systems and unravel the importance of maintaining balance and control amidst stress.We then venture into the fascinating realm of cellular aging, shedding light on the structural and functional abnormalities that occur in our organs due to accumulated damage. Have you ever wondered why more people are living past a century but aren't necessarily healthier in their bonus years? We dissect this paradox, highlighting differences in longevity between men and women. Our exploration goes deeper to discuss fertility, childbearing, and caregiving and their intriguing impacts on brain health, hormonal balance, and immune system competence.Lastly, in the quest to answer the question: "How can we retain resilience as we age and improve our health span?" we dig into the world of genetics, focusing on the APOE gene and unique gene mutations. We also illuminate our paths with the molecular mechanisms of longevity, including the role of telomeres, DNA repair, and the heroes of the story, the sirtuins, in ensuring we age well. Get ready for an intense, enlightening session as we dissect longevity, telomeres, and cellular aging. Let's unravel the secrets of aging well, together.https://www.instagram.com/drnoseworthyhttps://www.facebook.com/becomeautonomoushttps://www.tiktok.com/@drsnoseworthy

"The genes sort of load the crossbow and the environment pulls the trigger," says Sara Pugh.   In the latest Quantum Biology Collective podcast, Meredith Oke teams up with returning guest, Sara Pugh. Sara has a degree in Biochemistry Genetics, a PhD in Molecular Mechanisms, as well as training in Functional Neurology, Pilates, and Hypnosis. Sara and Meredith dissect the interplay between our genetics and our environment and provide a great orientation for QBC listeners who are newer to the topic.   Dispelling the notion that genes alone shape our health, Sara introduces the environment as a crucial activator, determining gene expression. Zeroing in on light, she reveals how our skin and eyes capture different light wavelengths, influencing our genes and the vital mitochondria.   Sara underscores the ripple effects of light on our health, showing how misaligned exposure can contribute to conditions like obesity or mood disorders. Advocating for alignment with natural rhythms, she emphasizes morning sun exposure and genuine nighttime darkness, and natural unprocessed food.   Sara offers actionable insights, suggesting ways to mitigate modern lifestyle pitfalls, from grounding oneself to harnessing natural light indoors. There is an illustrative story in this episode which involves a truck driver whose outdoor meals ignited a significant health turnaround!   Quotes: "The important thing to understand is that the genes sort of load the crossbow and the environment pulls the trigger." (02:04 | Sara Pugh)  "Our bodies go into chaos and they don't know what to do when we give an incorrect signal, like bright light when it's supposed to be dark or darkness when it's supposed to be day." (11:37 | Sara Pugh) "So in the old paradigm, their genetics determine everything. And then the old paradigm, like an ice cream cone is an ice cream cone. It has this many calories and this many grams of fat and that's that. But in the quantum paradigm, walking to the ice cream parlor and getting an ice cream and walking outside in the sunshine while you eat it has a different effect than eating an ice cream cone at home, watching television when it's dark outside and you're being bombarded by even though the ice cream may have the same calories and the same fat, the effect on your body is totally different depending on the environment and the actions that you're taking while you're eating it." (31:20 | Meredith Oke) "We want to increase the signals that create coherence in the body. Those signals tend to come from nature and natural food, things that nature produced." (43:28 | Sara Pugh)  "The light and other frequencies give the signal to our bodies to be in coherence and that when our bodies are in coherence, we feel better."

R., Hegde, N., Wendling, C., Di Mattia, T., Martinet, A., Chimata, P., Alpy, F., PADINJAT, R. Abstract: Lipid transfer proteins mediate the transfer of lipids between organelle membranes in eukaryotes and loss of function in these has been linked to neurodegenerative disorders. However, the mechanism by which loss of lipid transfer protein function leads to neurodegeneration is not understood. In Drosophila photoreceptors, depletion of Retinal Degeneration B (RDGB), a phosphatidylinositol transfer protein localized to endoplasmic reticulum-plasma membrane contact sites leads to defective phototransduction and retinal degeneration but the mechanism by which RDGB function is regulated and the process by which loss of this activity leads to retinal degeneration is not understood. RDGB is localized to membrane contact sites (MCS) and this depends in the interaction of its FFAT motif with the ER integral protein VAP. To identify regulators of RDGB function in vivo, we depleted more than 300 VAP interacting proteins and identified a set of 52 suppressors of rdgB. The molecular identity of these suppressors indicates a role for novel lipids in regulating RDGB function and for transcriptional and ubiquitination processes in mediating retinal degeneration in rdgB. The human homologs of several of these molecules have been implicated in neurodevelopmental diseases underscoring the importance of VAP mediated processes in these disorders.

Are your mental health pills making you feel bad? In this episode of The Evolving Wellness podcast, I am joined by Dr. Rachel Brown and Dr. Sara Pugh to discuss the impact of mental health medications on the body. We live in a world where these types of medications, such as SSRIs, are over-prescribed, and thus too many people experience negative side effects. Oftentimes, these pills are prescribed before a patient is recommended to fix basic pillars of health, such as diet, sleep, and exercise. We explore a few things one can do to improve their mental health naturally and easily before one resort to prescription drugs. We also chat about the dangers of over-supplementing melatonin. When we ingest too much of it, these supplements don't act as supplements anymore but as contraceptives as they start to repress our bodies' natural ability to create melatonin itself. This can cause a lot of damage to our overall health.  Dr. Sara Pugh has a degree in Biochemistry Genetics and a Welcome Trust Ph.D. in Molecular Mechanisms. She studied protein folding, which plays a role in Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease, antioxidants, and fluorescence. She worked as a postdoctoral researcher on heart muscle cells, cholesterol, and statins. She is published in various peer-reviewed journals. Dr. Rachel Brown works as an NHS Consultant Psychiatrist in Scotland. She qualified in medicine from the University of Edinburgh in 2003 and has worked in psychiatry since 2004. She has a Master's degree in Medical Laws and Ethics from the University of Edinburgh, in addition to being a certified Functional Medicine Practitioner.

Abstract: The order of Cyanidiales comprise seven acido-thermophilic red microalgal species thriving in hot springs of volcanic origin characterized by extremely low pH, moderately high temperatures and the presence of elevated concentrations of sulphites and heavy metals that are prohibitive for most other organisms. Little is known about the molecular mechanisms of Cyanidiales long-term adaptation to such hostile environments, in particular to heavy metals, yet elucidation of these processes is important for understanding the evolution of the metabolic pathways underlying heavy metal detoxification for developing rational strategies for heavy metal bioremediation. Here, we investigated the long-term adaptive responses of Cyanidioschyzon merolae cells, a member of Cyanidiales, to extremely high nickel concentrations. Through complementary approaches based on physiological, microscopic and elemental analyses we dissect several molecular mechanisms underlying the long-term adaptation of this model extremophilic microalga to high Ni exposure. These include: (i) extrusion of Ni from the cells and lack of significant Ni accumulation inside the cells; (ii) maintenance of efficient photoprotective responses including non-photochemical quenching and state transitions; (iii) dynamic remodelling of the chloroplast ultrastructure such as formation of metabolically active prolamellar bodies and plastoglobuli together with loosening of the thylakoid membranes; (iv) activation of ROS amelioration metabolic pathways; and (v) preservation of the efficient respiratory chain functionality. All the dynamically regulated processes identified in this study underlie the remarkable adaptability of C. merolae to extremely high Ni levels that exceed by several orders of magnitude the levels of this heavy metal found in the natural environment of this extremophile.

Gun Control and The Vaule Of Life (8:09)   Vitamin B6 Supplements In High Doses Can Calm Anxiety, Depression   University of Reading (UK), July 18, 2022 Taking high-dose vitamin B6 supplements may help to reduce feelings of anxiety and depression, a new study reveals. Researchers from the University of Reading in England report that young adults taking a dose 50 times the recommended daily dose reported feeling less anxious and depressed after a month. Vitamin B6 increases the body's production of GABA (Gamma-Aminobutyric Acid), a chemical that blocks impulses between nerve cells in the brain. Vitamin B6 is found naturally in a variety of foods, including salmon, tuna, chickpeas, and bananas.  Vitamin B6 helps the body produce a specific chemical messenger that inhibits impulses in the brain, and this study links this calming effect with reduced anxiety among the participants.” The study provides evidence lacking in previous studies as to what exactly drives the stress-reducing effects of marmite and multivitamins. More than 300 participants took either a placebo or Vitamin B6 or B12 supplements at 50 times the recommended amount – around 70mg. Each participant took one tablet a day with food. Vitamin B12 had little effect compared to the placebo, but B6 showed a statistically reliable difference. The team also detected subtle but harmless changes in visual performance, consistent with controlled levels of brain activity. Health officials in the United Kingdom recommend that people do not take too high a dose – more than 200mg a day – as it can lead to a loss of feeling in the arms and legs. In a few cases, this has become permanent in people who have taken very large doses for several months.   “Many foods, including tuna, chickpeas and many fruits and vegetables, contain Vitamin B6. However, the high doses used in this trial suggest that supplements would be necessary to have a positive effect on mood,” Dr. Field continues. “It is important to acknowledge that this research is at an early stage and the effect of Vitamin B6 on anxiety in our study was quite small compared to what you would expect from medication. However, nutrition-based interventions produce far fewer unpleasant side effects than drugs, and so in the future people might prefer them as an intervention.   Study Ranks Healthiest ‘Powerhouse' Vegetables, Which is #1?  William Paterson University, July 14   Research from William Paterson University attempted to rank fruits and vegetables according to the amount of nutrition within. In all, they list 41 “powerhouse” vegetables and fruits, scoring them according to the presence of 17 nutrients. The produce was scored by the presence of: fiber, potassium, protein, calcium, folate, vitamin D, vitamin A, vitamin B12, and more.   To make the study's “powerhouse” list, the researchers calculated each fruit or vegetable's “nutrient density” score based on the percentage of your daily need for each nutrient the food provides. (The study assumed a 2,000 calorie per day diet and 100 grams of each food.) The scores were capped to ensure that a fruit or vegetable that provides a huge amount of just a single nutrient wouldn't receive a disproportionately high overall score.” So, which earned the top spot? Super easy-to-grow watercress. Watercress scored an even 100, with Chinese cabbage closest behind with a score of 91.99. In third place was chard (89.27), followed by beet greens (87.08), spinach (86.43), and chicory (73.36).  Fruits scored lower, with red pepper at the top (41.26), followed by pumpkin (32.23), tomatoes (20.37), and lemons (18.72). Many of these are surprising considering they aren't the “superfruits” we are accustomed to hearing about. But, that's largely because of the nutrients measured in this study. Fruits like blueberries, that are considered healthiest by many, earn that spot because of their antioxidant levels. This study didn't capture the concentration of antioxidants, however.       Can listening to the Beatles improve your memory? New research says music just might stir the brain Northeastern University, July 19, 2022 When Paul McCartney wrote "Get Back," he never would have predicted how useful or relevant the song would become for music therapists. The song's refrain—"Get back to where you once belonged"—might as well be a therapist encouraging a dementia patient to recall a distant memory. In new research, Psyche Loui, an associate professor of music, is attempting to do exactly that. Published in Scientific Reports, Loui found that for older adults who listened to some of their favorite music, including The Beatles, connectivity in the brain increased. Specifically, Loui—and her multi-disciplinary team of music therapists, neurologists and geriatric psychiatrists—discovered that music bridged the gap between the brain's auditory system and reward system, the area that governs motivation. The researchers had a group of older adults between the ages of 54 and 89 from the Boston area listen to a playlist for an hour every day for eight weeks and journal about their response to the music afterward. Loui and the team would scan the participants' brains before and after listening in order to measure their neurological response. Playlists were highly personalized and featured a combination of the participants' self-selected songs, which ranged from The Beatles to Bruce Springsteen, and a preselected mix of classical pieces, pop and rock songs and new compositions.The most important lesson that we learned from the music therapist was that there is no one-size-fits-all for what kind of music works best," Loui said. What the researchers found was striking: Music was essentially creating an auditory channel directly to the medial prefrontal cortex, the brain's reward center. Notably, the medial prefrontal cortex "is one of the areas to lose its activity and functional connectivity in aging adults, especially in folks with dementia," Loui said. Music that was both familiar and well-liked tended to activate the auditory and reward areas more. However, the music that participants selected themselves provided an even stronger connection between these two areas of the brain.   DHA omega-3 linked to ‘significantly improved periodontal outcomes': Harvard data Harvard University, July 14 ,2022 Scientists from Harvard report that supplementation with DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) omega-3 may improve periodontal outcomes in people with periodontitis. Periodontitis is a serious gum infection that destroys the soft tissue and bone supporting the teeth. It is reportedly the second most common disease worldwide, with 30–50% of the US population suffering from it. Data published in the Journal of Dental Research indicated that DHA supplementation was associated with a decreased the average depth of the pockets between the teeth and the gums, and the gingival index, which is used to assess the extent of gum disease. In addition, inflammatory biomarkers in the gum tissue were significantly reduced. Participants were randomly assigned to receive either 2,000 mg per day of DHA or placebo (soy/corn oil) for three months. All of the participants also received 81 mg per day of aspirin. Results showed DHA levels in red blood cell membranes increased between 3.6% to 6.2%, whereas no such increases were observed in the placebo group. In addition to the improvements in pocket depth and gingival index, the researchers reported that levels of the inflammatory biomarkers C-reactive protein (CRP) and interleukin-1 beta (IL-1beta) decreased significantly in the DHA group.      This “Holy Herb' Shows Promise in Treating Alzheimer's Disease Yerba santa may also treat brain swelling in dementia patients Salk Institute, July 14, 2022 A shrub known as Yerba santa, dubbed “holy herb” in Spanish, appears to show promise in treating Alzheimer's disease, researchers say. It has the potential to reduce brain swelling in people with dementia.  Native to California, Yerba santa has long been used as a treatment for fevers, headaches, and other common ailments. But researchers at Salk's Cellular Neurobiology Laboratory believe it could be used to treat much more serious health problems. In fact, millions of dementia patients stand to benefit from the natural treatment, they claim. A molecule in the shrub called sterubin – the plant's most active component – could be the key to transforming millions of lives. The team found that sterubin had a significant anti-inflammatory effect on brain cells called microglia, which are involved in the development of Alzheimer's disease, among other ailments. The researchers further found that sterubin effectively removes iron. This is an important discovery, as iron contributes to nerve cell damage in the aging brain and neurodegenerative diseases. Sterubin was found to effectively reduce numerous causes of cell death in the nerve cells.   An inflammatory diet correlates with colorectal cancer risk The risk of developing colorectal cancer for individuals that follow a pro-inflammatory diet is two times higher than usual Bellvitge Biomedical Research Institute (Spain), July 15, 2022  Researchers from the Molecular Mechanisms and Experimental Therapy in Oncology program (Oncobell) of the Bellvitge Biomedical Research Institute (IDIBELL) and the Catalan Institute of Oncology (ICO) published in Nutrients the results of a multicenter study that unveils a correlation between inflammatory and antioxidant diets and the risk of developing colorectal and breast cancer.  "We have observed an association between the risk of developing colorectal cancer and the inflammatory potential of the diet. That is, the participants who followed an inflammatory diet had almost twice the risk of developing colorectal cancer, which is the 4th most frequent cancer worldwide", explains Dr. Mireia Obón. An inflammatory diet is usually characterized by the consumption of refined carbohydrates, red and processed meat, and saturated or trans fats. In an antioxidant diet, the consumption of vegetables, legumes, fruits and nuts predominates. "In this study we have focused on the role of diet, and specifically on its inflammatory and antioxidant capacity, as there is evidence that both chronic inflammation and oxidative stress influence the development of these two types of cancer", says Dr. Víctor Moreno. "Following a pro-inflammatory and pro-oxidant diet is a very important risk factor for colon cancer.  We should reorient our eating habits towards a Mediterranean diet, rich in fruits and vegetables, nuts, whole grains and healthy oils, such as olive oil and move away from a more pro-inflammatory diet", she argues.     OCCUPY PEACE & FREEDOM RALLY INFO Saturday, July 23 -- 2:00 pm Kingston, NY (at the historical 4 corners -- Crown and John Streets) Speakers: Gerald Celente Judge Andrew Napolitano Gary Null Scott Ritter Phil Giraldi (former CIA official) Live music, food and drink

It does the inverse in men and women. 10:04 Men's poor metabolic health drives the formation of extra estrogen. 10:14 Women's poor metabolic health drives the formation of extra testosterone. 12:44 97% of obese women have PCOS. 65% of non-obese women have PCOS. 13:14 Fat cells secrete hormones, called adipocytokines. One of these is leptin. 13:54 Leptin decreases activity of T-regulatory cells that help to prevent autoimmunity. 16:04 Belly fat cells convert androgens into estrogens. This is impacted by insulin. 18:14 Nutrition and exercise are fundamental ways to address poor metabolic health. 18:24 A ketogenic or low carb diet is helpful because it manages blood sugar and insulin, and ketones have immune signaling properties. 19:24 Intermittent fasting can support glycemic variability and improve insulin sensitivity. 19:46 Time restricted feeding with a 16 or 18 hour fast is also helpful for longevity, burning fat, and supporting metabolic health. 20:14 Poor sleep exacerbates insulin resistance. Tape your mouth shut when you sleep. 21:24 Resistance training decreases androgens in women with PCOS. All exercise supports underlying metabolic dysfunction. 22:24 Magnesium is helpful for supporting insulin sensitivity. 23:15 Myo-inositol and inositol makes ovaries more sensitive to insulin, preventing the increase in androgens. 24:04 Vitamin D is involved in blood sugar regulation, immune health, and sleep quality. 24:19 Gut health is important to metabolic health. Eat real food and ferments. 24:54 Berberine hydrochloride, 500 mg 1 to 3 times per day, is a natural Metformin. Studies Mentioned Witchel, S. F., & Plant, T. M. (2020).

I describe the mechanisms by which deliberate heat exposure impacts body temperature, metabolism, heart health, hormone production, exercise recovery, cognition, mood, and longevity. I detail specific protocols for deliberate heat exposure, including exposure times, temperature ranges to consider, time of day, and delivery mechanisms (sauna vs. hot bath vs. open air heat, etc.) in order to achieve different specific outcomes, including dramatic growth hormone releases, or reduction in cortisol levels. I also discuss the ability of locally applied heat to heal or otherwise improve various bodily tissues and new data on how local application of heat may induce the conversion of metabolically sluggish white fat to metabolically robust beige fat.
