Der Feind in meinem Fett: Zuviel weißes und vor allem viszerales Körperfett tun uns nicht gut. Vor dem Fettabbau steht die Fettmessung: hier die Folge zu Caliper-Zange, Bioimpedanz, DEXA-Scan und anderen Methoden zur Messung der Körperzusammensetzung. Zum Nachhören: die Folge, in der Genetik-Experte Dr. Stefan Wöhrer den pharmakogenetischen Test von Andreas ausgewertet hat – mit extrem überraschenden Ergebnissen. Spezielle Rabatte für Gen-Tests gibt es für Hörerinnen und Hörer der Biohacking Praxis hier. Eine sehr preisgünstige Caliperzange zum Herumspielen gibt es hier. Eine aufwändigere Caliperzange (inklusive Körper-Maßband) gibt es hier. Bioimpedanz-Waagen sind tatsächlich in der Regel – wie in der Folge erklärt wurde – zwar nicht absolut zuverlässig, aber relativ. Für zuhause sind sie eine vernünftige Möglichkeit, Entwicklungen zu verfolgen. Hier und hier gibt es zwei Modelle mit guten Bewertungen. Es gibt in nahezu allen größeren Städten im DACH-Raum Einrichtungen, die DEXA-Scans anbieten, am besten googlen. Weil er angesprochen wurde: Der „belgian blue“ oder „weißblaue Belgier“ ist der Bodybuilder unter den Rinderrassen. Die blauen Belgier verdanken ihren enormen Muskelanteil einer genetischen Mutation im Myostatin-Gen. Dieses Gen reguliert normalerweise das Muskelwachstum, und durch die Mutation wird seine Funktion gehemmt, was zu einem übermäßigen Muskelwachstum führt. Bilder gibt es im Internet zuhauf. Warum das für Menschen relevant ist? Bryan Johnson unterzog sich 2024 einer Follistatin-Gentherapie. Sie beeinflusst das Myostatin-System. Durch die Erhöhung von Follistatin wird die hemmende Wirkung von Myostatin auf das Muskelwachstum reduziert, was zu einer Zunahme der Muskelmasse führt. Diese Behandlung ist aber äußerst experimentell, Johnson ist mit den Ergebnissen sehr happy, wie er in seiner Netflix-Doku erklärt. (Übrigens wirklich eine tolle Doku.)
In today's episode, we're diving into Follistatin 344. Whether you're interested in performance enhancement, muscle growth, or just curious about the science behind peptide therapies, this episode is for you. What is Follistatin 344? Let's start with the basics – what exactly is Follistatin 344? Follistatin 344 is a naturally occurring protein in the human body, specifically a variant of the follistatin protein. Follistatin itself plays a crucial role in regulating various biological processes, most notably muscle growth and the regulation of myostatin, which is a negative regulator of muscle development. Follistatin 344 is a synthetic form of this protein and is often used in peptide therapy for its muscle-building properties. Is Follistatin 344 a peptide? You would be right to point out that the typical definition of a peptide is a chain of amino acids that is usually 50 amino acids or fewer. By this standard, Follistatin 344 technically exceeds the usual peptide range, as it is a protein fragment consisting of 344 amino acids. This is much larger than what would typically be classified as a peptide. Follistatin 344 is still often referred to as a "peptide" in certain contexts, especially within the realm of peptide therapy and bodybuilding communities. This is because it's a synthetic fragment of a larger protein (follistatin), and it operates in a manner similar to smaller peptides that influence biological processes like muscle growth. So, while it's not a "peptide" by the strictest definition, in many practical uses, it is referred to as such due to its role in peptide therapy and its functional characteristics similar to smaller peptides. How Does Follistatin 344 Work? Now, let's talk about how Follistatin 344 works within the body. Myostatin is a negative regulator of muscle growth. It essentially acts as a ‘brake' on muscle tissue, limiting how much muscle you can build. In individuals with high myostatin levels, muscle growth is naturally suppressed. This is where Follistatin 344 comes in. Follistatin 344 binds to myostatin and prevents it from exerting its inhibitory effects on muscle development. This leads to increased muscle mass, strength, and performance. The action of Follistatin 344 is similar to lifting the restrictions on muscle growth, essentially removing the natural “limiters” that might otherwise hinder progress. Potential Benefits of Follistatin 344 So, why might someone be interested in using Follistatin 344? What are the potential benefits? Increased Muscle Mass: By inhibiting myostatin, Follistatin 344 promotes muscle growth. This makes it popular among bodybuilders and athletes who are looking to increase lean muscle mass without the use of traditional anabolic steroids. Improved Muscle Strength and Performance: Along with muscle mass, strength can also improve as muscle tissue is allowed to grow more effectively. This can translate into better performance in sports and physical activities. Faster Recovery: Some users report faster recovery times from intense workouts or injuries. This could be due to the increased muscle repair and regeneration that Follistatin 344 promotes. Fat Loss: Follistatin 344 may also indirectly support fat loss. As muscle mass increases, the body's metabolism tends to accelerate, which could lead to more efficient fat burning. Potential for Anti-Aging Benefits: There's ongoing research into the potential for Follistatin 344 to slow age-related muscle loss. As we age, we naturally lose muscle mass and strength, so this peptide could potentially help mitigate these effects. Potential Side Effects and Warnings While Follistatin 344 has promising benefits, like any therapy, it's important to be aware of potential side effects and warnings. Unknown Long-Term Effects: As with many peptide therapies, the long-term effects of using Follistatin 344 are not yet fully understood. Most research has been done in animal models, and human studies are still relatively limited. As a result, the long-term safety profile remains unclear. Muscle Imbalance: Because Follistatin 344 inhibits myostatin, there's the possibility of muscle imbalances. Overuse of this peptide could lead to muscle growth in certain areas of the body, while other muscles may not develop as effectively. This could result in a distorted appearance or even strain on the body's natural systems, including the cardiovascular system. Potential Impact on Other Growth Factors: Follistatin also regulates other growth factors in the body. There could be unintended effects on areas like bone growth, fat distribution, and organ function. More research is needed to understand these potential risks. Hormonal Disruption: Peptides like Follistatin 344 interact with various hormonal pathways in the body, so improper use could potentially lead to hormonal imbalances. It's important to approach peptide therapy with caution and consult with a healthcare professional before starting any new regimen. Thanks for listening to The Peptide Podcast.

Dr Glenn McConell chats with Associate Professor Chris Fry from the University of Kentucky, USA. Joint injury causes muscle weakness and atrophy (reductions in muscle size) due to the the inactivity but also separately due to the injury itself. Substances are released from muscle to help repair the joint/bone. Prehab is important before surgery. There can be residual effects long after joint injury. We also discussed hypertrophy and aging and the importance of having a lot of muscle capillaries as age to obtain the optimum response to resistance training. Lots more. We had a really great chat.

DRUGS N STUFF 123 - DAVE CROSLAND & SCOTT MCNALLY - TIME STAMPS BELOW
Hi everyone and welcome back to BFR Radio. Thanks for joining in and hope that your training is going well. Before I head into today's article review, a quick reminder that if you're looking for practical ideas on how to implement BFR into your own training check out my Instagram (@chrisgaviglio) or my Youtube channel which is SportsRehabAus. If you follow me on social media, I've also been trialling a few different things. The first one is 60second snippets of the best bits of the podcast as well as Instagram text image posts – which do you prefer? Also if you're enjoying the podcast, please give it a rating on iTunes. Its also been a while since my last episode and I thank you for your patience. I've had a few presentations recently and one was for the ASCA. This year was an online style conference and my presentation I spoke about how I periodise strength training utilising a myriad of different concepts. In particular it was a case study of one of the decathletes that I coached for the Tokyo Olympics. I've also had a work change as well so navigating that has taken some of my time. One of the positives is that I am spending more time putting together some other S&C and BFR concepts that I've been wanting to do for a while. In particular I am providing an online S&C service which means that if you've been thinking about improving your training, I can help provide this for you. Just contact me through my socials or the contact us on my website. I also have some big plans for BFR specifically so stay tuned for that. The last few episodes was a short series of papers which reviewed different sports specific training with BFR and highlighted potential direct benefits to sports performance. For me it shows that BFR can be used for more than just strength training and stationary cardiovascular-based training. To change it up, it's time for a “Your questions answered” segment. Interestingly I got 3 independent emails on a very similar subject within the last month. In particular it is on the subject of using BFR with youth athletes. Hopefully not too controversial, but I thought I'd tackle this subject. To give some context behind the questions the first question was from a physiotherapist who is involved in the training of elite Artistic gymnasts aged between 10-26. Common injuries include growth-related injuries such as osgoods and, tendinopathy injuries especially the Achilles Tendon as well as boney stress injuries (foot, shin, and back). And in previous podcasts I'd alluded to BFR being a great tool for tendon pain as well as recovering from bone stress injuries and such could BFR be used in this specific population. The second question was from another physiotherapist who works with dancers and in particular young dancers and pretty much similar. They want to know the youngest age I'd use BFR training with? And are there any contraindications for use in those under 18years? So how to best answer this question? Unfortunately there isn't any position statement with respect to BFR and Youth. There is very little out there but I will piece this together to give you a balanced answer and perhaps rather my opinion. No use sense sitting on the fence right?? To answer this question, I am going to break this into 3 parts. Firstly I want to briefly discuss the idea of strength training in youth in general (that is without BFR). Secondly, I will highlight a few studies in younger age groups and then finish up with my own view and personal experiences. I hope you enjoy this one. I feel I have given a balanced view with respect to this concept and before I go I want to emphasis a few points if you decide that BFR may be useful with the youth athletes that you train: Like all training interventions you need to be clear why you are using it. This type of training needs strict supervision, and at this age in particular. At a young age who are fit, healthy and performing general training, I would not prescribe it. I think there are so many other skills and physical activities that you need them to be exploring before worrying about BFR. However if they are have specific injuries or issues that need addressing it may be a useful intervention. The paper's that I briefly mention are: Effects of practical blood flow restriction training on adolescent lower-body strength. (15-18year old girls) Luebbers, P. E., Witte, E. V., Oshel, J. Q., & Butler, M. S. (2019). The Journal of Strength & Conditioning Research, 33(10), 2674-2683. Effect of eight-week aerobic training with blood flow restriction on lipid profiles and body composition in obese adolescent boys. (13-16year old boys) MOHAMMADI, S., Rajabi, H., Motamedi, P., Khaledi, N., & Abdollahi, M. (2019). Response of Myostatin to Resistance Exercise with and without Blood Flow Restriction in Immature Male Athletes. (10-14year old boy gymnasts) Shabkhiz, F., Choobineh, S., Ghafarioun Isfahani, A., & Yari, M. (2017). Sport Physiology & Management Investigations, 9(3), 9-19. A pediatric case with an unstabilized neck treated with skeletal muscle electrical stimulation and KAATSU training®. (2yrs-4months boy ) Iwashita, H. (2015). International Journal of KAATSU Training Research, 11(1), 7-12. The Australian Strength & Conditioning Association (ASCA) position stand on youth strength training link: Resistance Training for Youth - Position Stand I'd love to hear from anyone who's used BFR in these age groups. I think it could be a good extension to this podcast. Contact me through my website (sportsrehab.com.au) or DM me through my Instagram or Twitter @chrisgaviglio. Before I go, A couple of favours from me to you. If you know of someone who would benefit from this episode, please share it. And if you're interested in purchasing your own set of BFR cuffs please visit my website which is www.sportsrehab.com.au I can also help you with your training so contact me via my website or DM me through my socials which is @chrisgaviglio.

The Thoroughbred is a horse breed best known for its use in racing. Intense selection for speed and stamina has led the Thoroughbred to develop energy-efficient muscles, with a high aerobic capacity relative to skeletal muscle mass. Dr Mary F. Rooney and her colleagues from University College Dublin and Trinity College Dublin, Ireland, investigated how different myostatin genotypes in equine muscle are correlated with muscle fibre composition and, ultimately, influence the race distance aptitude of the Thoroughbred horse.
Myostatin-related muscle hypertrophy is a rare condition characterized by reduced body fat and increased muscle size. Affected individuals have up to twice the usual amount of muscle mass in their bodies. They also tend to have increased muscle strength. This condition is not known to cause any medical problems, and affected individuals are intellectually normal. Myostatin-related muscle hypertrophy is caused by mutations in the MSTN gene. It follows an incomplete autosomal dominant pattern of inheritance. In layman's terms: Too LITTLE Myostatin causes too MUCH muscle. Our guest today is discussing her son's condition where he has twice the normal myostatin in his body, and yet he has more muscle mass and less fat in his body than his peers! It is possible that he is the only living person with this particular disorder, thereby officially kicking off our "Rare-Diseases Segment" of PodcastDX. Shari Graber knew, without a doubt, her son was special the day he was born. From her hospital bed, she saw her infant, only hours old, lift his head from his bassinet in the hospital room and look around the room! "No one would ever believe me" she thought to herself- and Dylan's life began with gusto! Listen to this week's episode to hear this incredible story!

Reading about this 9 year old power lifter in Louisiana got me thinking about individuals with a mutated myostatin gene. This rare condition has no negative side effects (that we know of), so it is a very interesting topic that, if it could be manipulated by scientists, could bring about this super-hero-esq human, in theory, of course.

It’s theorized in the bodybuilding community that the reason Flex Wheeler and other top Olympia caliber bodybuilders are able to build such incredible physiques is due to Myostatin deficiency. Other popular theories circulate around that include ideas as vastly different as androgen receptor sensitivity is higher in top bodybuilders, to the complete opposite side of the spectrum where some believe that training past a certain pain threshold is what separates champions from the rest and that genetics are just a small factor in determining bodybuilding success.…
When I first started getting into bodybuilding and learning about pharmacology, a strategy I would see commonly advised on forums and by industry gurus was switching compounds at week 6 or week 8 to avoid androgen receptor downregulation and circumvent a plateau on a steroid cycle.…

Do Androgen Receptors Downregulate? There is a very common misconception in the bodybuilding community that androgen receptors downregulate during a steroid cycle, or during long-term steroid use. A plateau in muscle gain is commonly attributed to this “androgen receptor downregulation”. If you've ever cycled anabolics, you can also attest to the fact that during a new cycle the gains always seem to come within the first 8 weeks or so, and then the weeks following that it is typical to notice a blatant diminishing returns effect.…

Feeling bad becomes the new normal.The crappy beta versions of human enhancement that some people are experimenting with today, often to their detriment. When will better enhancements be available?Maybe we need a drug to make us take as much joy out of activity as a five-year-old. For them it's not exercise... it's play.

Pioneer in the world of Gene therapy, Dr. Theodore Friedman shares with us today the exciting future of what gene therapy holds. Listen in as we hear how manipulating certain lacking or misbehaving genes from causing disease has been proven in several types of diseases through clinical experimentation and how it will benefit future generations. We discuss whether or not it will be a solution to all disease. What the census is on how fast it will take or the prediction of genomic therapy within the scientific world. Gain greater awareness of gene modification within the world sport arena (Olympics), what kind of testing has been approved, used and how the tests are able to find modified genes or the presence of agents used to deliver those editing genes. What is the ethical answer of testing in sports when certain individuals naturally have genes that give increased ability to perform at a higher level than others? Applying Gene Therapy Attack of genetic disease - using your genes as your tools for treatment rather than pharmaceutical drugs. The Molecular Biology field starting asking this question in the 1970s of how to manipulate genes in cells and living organisms to prevent the expression of disease causing genes. Introducing new genes or modifying genes with experimental testing certain diseases are being able to be manipulated or managed. How will the genes be edited with those that have existing diseases present not just a gene known to cause disease? Not all genes can be manipulated – there will still need to be preventative action, people will still have illnesses as not everyone has access to genomic testing and information on how to prevent disease through gene therapy. How will all of this sophisticated knowledge be delivered to all types of people? For gene manipulation to work the editing gene has to be delivered at the right time, to the right cell in the correct controlled situation for it to work properly. Using Gene Therapy to Enhance Sport Performance Which if you didn't hear in the 2016 Olympic Games there was testing for a gene known as EPO (Erythropoietin) within athletes. As this awareness has been around for a decade and through research and scientific understanding testing was made available for detection of EPO distributed through the AAV virus into the person's genomes. With new technology emerging testing will and will not be possible depending on how the gene is manipulated or delivered into the athlete's correct cells. Most are being edited through various agents/viruses that more often than not do leave a fingerprint or sequence that may be found in current approved tests. Other attributes of enhancing an athletes' performance is to use gene therapy to knock out or minimize a gene such as Myostatin which may inhibit muscle cell growth and differentiation. This also can be tested by looking for a mutant myostatin gene – which may be detected by a mixture of several different genomes.

She created and maintains the website you stem.org this site consolidates opportunities in science, technology, engineering and math for primary and secondary school students in the Greater Bay area. Assistant Professor Ming Hammond. Welcome to spectrum. Hello. Thank you. Would you give us an overview of [00:01:30] the research that you're doing and in so doing, remind us what DNA and RNA are and how they're different. Speaker 1: Okay. Okay. I think a analogy that I like to use to describe the difference between DNA and RNA is that you can think of DNA as kind of an instruction manual for life. So that a very large instruction manual, several billion letters in length and it has all the instructions for how to make [00:02:00] all of the molecules, all the functioning parts of the cell RNA are messenger RNA is, are basically xerox copies of some pages of the DNA instruction manual that, um, gets used by the cell to translate the instructions into making proteins like enzymes and other components of the cell. Um, my lab is interested in how these RNA sequences are [00:02:30] regulated, how they're sent to different places in the cell and also how to change them so that we have, maybe we can control how the instructions are being used by the cell. Speaker 3: And so with that research, are you trying to create a generally applicable way to alter the RNA so that the gene is expressed differently? Speaker 1: Um, yes, exactly. And [00:03:00] first of all, understanding in nature how natural systems, um, control gene expression. And one reason we're interested in this is because for multicellular organisms like humans or plants, you have the same instruction manual in every single cell and yet you have multicellularity, right? So you have differences, different sets and instructions are being expressed [00:03:30] in different cell types, in different organs and in different portions of plants. For example, and were interested in understanding the basic mechanism for how the Messenger RNA is involved in ensuring that specific instructions are being followed in specific tissue types or specific cell types. Speaker 3: Does that then also include the idea that you mentioned of [00:04:00] certain of the messages are incorrect on purpose and so understanding that sounds complex, Speaker 1: right? So it's kind of interesting that one of the ways in which you can control, for example, whether a specific gene is expressed in the heart versus in the liver or the brain for example, is that messenger RNA for the same gene in the [00:04:30] brain is correct and can give rise to the proper protein and in the heart the same gene set of instructions can be spliced into messenger RNA in this specific way. That gives you a slightly different form of the protein. For example, one that has a slightly different function and therefore specific for that tissue. And then in the other case that I described, you might find in yet another tissue type that the same [00:05:00] message can be spliced so that it actually has a signal that says this is a garbage sequence, this is a nonsense message, don't follow this message. And the sal is smart enough to read these nonsense messages and know them to be nonsense. And what they do is the cell actually degrades these RNA. So for example, in that specific tissue type that the protein is never made. And so that's how you get [00:05:30] specialization of self. Speaker 3: And in your research are you trying to understand all of those cases? Speaker 1: We do most of our work in plants and we're very interested in the case where you can effectively shut off Accion in one condition, in war one cell type versus having it on or expressed in another cell type. So in plants, the mechanism that we study is [00:06:00] how these messages are lysed in these different ways. And that's called alternative splicing. And the predominant function of alternative spicing and plants appears to be this latter case where the messages either made and it's correct or it's made and has nonsense, but the reason I mentioned the other case is that it turns out something that's differentiates humans, for example, or mammals from plants. Besides the obvious differences, but a subtle [00:06:30] difference. The one I'm interested in is it turns out the majority of alternative splicing in mammals is actually to make different forms of that protein, so it's kind of interesting how the same basic mechanism is used by different organisms to do different things. Speaker 4: [inaudible]Speaker 3: you were listening to spectrum on k a l x Berkeley. Today we're talking with assistant professor Ming Hammond about [00:07:00] her work in messenger RNA and gene expression Speaker 4: [inaudible]Speaker 3: does the nonsense message have some value that you are researching that you are interested in understanding what is, what is the value of it to the, to the organism. Speaker 1: Okay. It's very important for the organism in general that the cell needs to have a way to know when a message or when a messenger RNA is [00:07:30] instructing nonsense because it's actually known that you can have mutations, for example, if you have a mutation in your gene that gives you a bad message. If sometimes that message then gets expressed as a protein, that protein with this altered function or ane may in fact lead to detrimental results, bad results for the south. Right. Um, and so, um, in general, the, there's a, [00:08:00] we call it a surveillance mechanism, so the cell is actually looking out for dad copies of the Messenger RNA. And so the cell normally has these surveillance mechanisms to, to, to play a very important role in keeping the, and keeping the cell healthy. And so I think what has happened is that the cell has started exploiting this mechanism to regulate chains for [00:08:30] tissue specificity and all of these other things I mentioned Speaker 3: in this regard. Are some cells smarter than others? Speaker 1: Hmm. I, I wouldn't say that [inaudible] Speaker 3: in terms of evolutionary activity, it would seem that this is kind of the place where that might go on in terms of changing an organism over time. How would RNA and nonsense allow for some sort of an evolutionary capacity to happen? Speaker 1: Okay. [00:09:00] First of all, the surveillance mechanism does not change the genomic DNA or she does not change the DNA instruction manual. Speaker 3: It's too far down the pipeline, right? So it's just reacting to the DNA instruction set, right? So it's really not there that any evolutionary activity is going to happen. It's going to happen at the higher lows. Right? Speaker 1: There are people that look to see for example, which, uh, which organisms do have this mechanism, right? So it's not that [00:09:30] some cells are smarter than others, but more that there are some organisms that don't have this surveillance pathway, for example. And bacteria do not, as far as we know, have NMD pathways, um, this nonsense mediated decay pathways, but a lot of organisms with a nucleus to have this mechanism. But one of the things that we're interested in in the lab is there is a lot of people that study this mechanism in humans and in other mammals. [00:10:00] And we're working in this in plants and we're looking at the comparison between them. What are the differences and what are the things that are similar Speaker 3: in your research? I noticed that there's something called molecular sensing that you're interested in. Can you explain that? Speaker 1: Sure. So, um, I mentioned that were studying how gene expression is regulated at the RNA level. And one of the really fascinating [00:10:30] things that I worked on as first as a postdoc and now that we're still working on in the lab is it turns out some of the Messenger RNA [inaudible] that exist in bacteria don't just encode the sequences for making proteins. But there is a little extra part of the Messenger RNA in the beginning part of the messenger RNA sequence that encodes what we call a ribo [00:11:00] switch. You can think about the riboswitch as basically a natural chemical sensor that's hooked up to the Messenger RNA. And what the rabis switch does is it responds to the presence of a chemical, for example, whether there is plenty of an amino acid in the south and the RNA is able to sense the presence of say the [00:11:30] amino acid and when it binds to this chemical, it changes its shape and through this confirmation or shape change, it causes the message downstream to actually get shut off. If you have enough of the amino acid, you turn off the gene that is used to make that amino acid because you don't need anymore. So I turns out there are many, many of these rabis switches [00:12:00] performing this simple chemical, boolean logic at the RNA level doing molecular sensing and in my lab were of course interested in the natural, these natural ones. And we're also interested in making unnatural ones as well. Speaker 3: And how is it that you utilize that information? Speaker 1: One way you can make use of the [inaudible] switch as I mentioned, is that its normal function is to turn on or turn off a chain depending on [00:12:30] the natural chemical logic is. So it turns out you can take the DNA sequence that encodes the ribo switch and you could put it in front of a different gene. And now that other gene also responds to this chemical. So it's actually a portable logic gate, so to speak. And what we're interested in is in making new Ribas switches, for example, making ones that can work in plants [00:13:00] because there is so far as we know, only one natural rubber switch that functions in plants and were interested in exploring whether we can transport these chemical sensors and utilize them and in other organisms including plant. Speaker 5: This is spectrum. I'm k a l x Berkeley. We're talking with the assistant professor Ming Hammond [00:13:30] about her research with messenger RNA and how it interacts with DNA genes. [inaudible] Speaker 3: so are you building those pre-IPO switches yourself or are you borrowing them from other organisms? Speaker 1: Um, well I would say it's actually a mix of both. We are also fundamentally interested in the mechanics of it too, right? How, how riboswitch with dysfunction. What is really amazing about Rabis, which is [00:14:00] is that there are so many different species of bacteria that utilize these Ribas switches and these bacteria live in all different types of climates than of them can live in extreme temperatures, both hot and cold and others are more, you know, soil dwelling organisms and live at pretty close to room temperature and all of them have the same sensor. And it's kind of an interesting question to ask how it is that the same sensor works [00:14:30] in all of these organisms? What part of the sequence of the, the switch of the RNA is responsible for for that [inaudible]. Speaker 3: So largely you, you work from the gene DNA area down into the RNA to control the expression of that gene. Speaker 1: Everything that we do does start the DNA level and we have in mind and designed for messenger RNA that we want. And then we can go back and say, okay, [00:15:00] at the DNA level, this is what the DNA instructions have to be to make that messenger RNA. And then we see, okay, let's build it weak. Then express it and see, okay, is the RNA doing? What we want it to and then further on is this messenger RNA being shut off the way that we want it to under this condition and then turned on under a different set of conditions. Speaker 3: And how do you judge whether or not you've had success? Is it pretty black and white [00:15:30] or is it somewhat gray? Speaker 1: One of the kind of very basic techniques that we use is a very simple assay. So you can imagine if we wanted to see whether under condition a this messenger RNA we designed is not making the protein versus condition B when when it is. So what we ended up using is what we call a reporter gene, a gene that expresses a protein that is fluorescent so that if [00:16:00] you shine light at a certain wavelength, you get a light emission from this protein. So we express the gene and in this case on the surface of the plant leaf and we can scan the leaf and let's say condition a is on the left hand side and condition B is on the right hand side. And we'll actually see that the right hand side, the leaf will be glowing and the left hand side of leaf not be glowing because of Ganar that we use to tact [00:16:30] the light emission from the surface of the leaf. Uh, it actually shows up as a gray scale limit. So that's how it turns out. Speaker 3: The organisms that you're currently working with, how do you select them? Speaker 1: One of the ways that you would want to select an organism is, is that other people have worked with the organism and that it's been shown by other researchers that it's easy to do the experiments that you're planning and that there are protocols developed for the experiments [00:17:00] that you're planning. And so it's kind of expedient, but we pick a plant called Nicole [inaudible], Tami Ana that is actually cousin to the tobacco plant, which is of some agricultural interests and also has been shown by other people to be very easy to work with for our experiments. Speaker 3: How has the hardware and the software that you use to do your research changed over the past? What 10 years that you've been doing this [inaudible] Speaker 1: [00:17:30] so we don't actually use much software. We can talk about the hardware. Sure we can like the development of technology to do DNA sequencing very, very rapidly has really been astonishing to see. And for my research in the RNA field, it has an equal impact I would say as well because it turns out if you want to study an RNA sequence, one of the ways we study it is that we do what's called a [00:18:00] reverse transcription. So we convert the RNA back to DNA and then we sequence the DNA that's made from the RNA. So it's kind of the reverse of the normal case of things that technology has enabled people to not just look at the human genome, but what we called a human transcriptome. So this is what are all the Messenger RNHS that are being expressed in different tissue types. And so that has led us to discovering, for [00:18:30] example, these differences in expression at different, um, messenger RNA is on a much, much grander scale. It much, much higher throughput scale than was possible 10 15 years ago. More fundamentally, it has made certain experiments that were impossible to do possible. Now the next challenge is how to sort through all that data Speaker 6: [inaudible]Speaker 5: you are tuned to k a l [00:19:00] x Berkeley. You're listening to spectrum. We're talking with Assistant Professor Mang Hammond about RNA based gene regulation Speaker 6: [inaudible].Speaker 1: Can you explain the a youth stem.org website and I believe you started this, didn't right. So my lab and I started this website called youth stem.org and the inspiration for the website is, it's actually kind of a personal story, [00:19:30] but I think it resonates with a lot of young scientists and other scientists is when I was a younger student, even before I went off to college and I was deciding what subjects I liked, what I like to do, I had these opportunities where yes, some of my science teachers saw something in me or thought that I would enjoy science and wanted to encourage me in the sciences and they would suggest that I go and do some of these programs that [00:20:00] are available in the state of Maryland, for example, where my family is from. And you know, I had a chance to work in a lab at the University of Maryland School of Pharmacy. Speaker 1: And I remember that made a really big impression on me when I was a freshman in college. And my freshman advisor asked me what I wanted to do for work study. I said that, well of course I wanted to do research in a lab because I said why I was already in a lab and in high school and I really liked it [00:20:30] and that's what I want to do for work study. And it was really exciting and really fun. So that's the origin story I guess of you stem. And in fact we have a lot of programs on the Berkeley campus for students interested in science that are, and that some of which pay actually a stipend. And not everyone can afford to pay money to do a summer program, but we have these free programs [00:21:00] that are I think really great. So I wanted to have a mechanism to point that out to local area students. Speaker 1: And the kind of idea I had was, well wouldn't it be great if we had like essentially a craigslist for bay area free local science and engineering and math programs? And so that's um, basically what we intend for a stem to be. [00:21:30] You can actually go on the website. It's you stem.org and you can click on a subject. You know, my favorite subject of course is chemistry. And so you could pick chemistry and it'll actually show you just the programs that are for students interested in chemistry. You can search by your grade and it tell you which programs are for you or you also filter by the location. So we're focused a lot on the East Bay, but there are also programs down in the South Bay down [00:22:00] in San Jose, Santa Cruz that we found in ones up in Monterrey. Speaker 3: So for people locally within the bay area who do have programs, they could contact you through the web. Speaker 1: Right? There's actually a link on the bottoms saying you're saying if you're a program director and you would like to list your program, the criteria is that we're interested in listing programs where the students can apply themselves or it can be nominated by a teacher that it's open to [00:22:30] any student that wants to apply. And uh, certainly we emphasize programs that are free or that pass state band. Speaker 3: And you recently received the NIH director's new innovator award. How did that happen? Speaker 1: Well, the short answer is I applied but um, yes. So it's, it's a really great honor to have received it and actually [00:23:00] to a members of the chemistry department received the new innovator where I this year, myself and Michelle Chang, another assistant professor in the same department. And so it, that was just really great news for both of us. And yeah, it was really a day for celebration in the lab for sure. I mean Hammon thanks very much for coming on spectrum. Thank you. It's a pleasure to be here. Thanks for having me. Brad. Speaker 6: [inaudible]Speaker 3: [00:23:30] irregular feature of spectrum is to mention a few of the science and technology events happening locally over the next few weeks.

Visit www.boneroompresents.com for more information now a few news items. Here's the Rick science [00:26:00] news reviews. A January 5th article in science by Sandra Garrett and Joshua Rosenthal at the University of Puerto Rico Medical Sciences campus in San Juan that shows that while octopuses in the Arctic have very similar DNA with warm water octopuses, their nerve cells are very different. This difference allows them to operate in the frigid waters and arises due to m RNA edits. These edits change the way that nerve cells opening includes gates to produce electrical impulses based on the species of octopus. This is the first [00:26:30] discovered example of m RNA editing to help an organism adapt to its environment and speculation remains as to how quickly and prevalent the mechanism might be. Speaker 3: In December, NASA announced seventh 2012 as the new target launch date for the space x commercial orbital transportation services milestone missions two and three. This mission begins with the liftoff of the Falcon nine rocket from Cape Canaveral boosting the Dragon's [00:27:00] spacecraft into low earth orbit. The space x dragon spacecraft will perform all of the commercial orbital transportation services, milestone mission two objectives, which include numerous operations in the vicinity of the International Space Station, and thereafter we'll perform the commercial orbital transportation services milestone mission three objectives. These include approach birthing with the International Space Station, astronauts opening the dragon spacecraft [00:27:30] and unloading cargo. Finally, the astronauts will close the space craft and send it back to Earth for recovery from the Pacific Ocean off the coast of California. This mission, if successful, will mark a major milestone in commercial American space flight Speaker 7: did January 4th issue of the Journal of neuroscience has an article by UCLA is Jenn Lang and others that reports promising anti-alcohol effects of a seed extract from the Asian Havana Dakis or Japanese [00:28:00] raising tree. This was first claimed to be a hangover remedy in the year six five nine rats that took dihydro, Myostatin or [inaudible] were found to take longer to become intoxicated and recovered four times more quickly than rats who did not take the extract. The extract further decrease the likelihood of hangover, anxiety and seizures in the rats. DSM also curved alcohol consumption. Rats consumed more and more alcohol gradually when it allowed, but d h m leased alcohol does not lead to this increased [00:28:30] consumption. DHM blocks alcohol's effects on Gaba receptors and the team has found no side effects in animal testing. They old next study the health effects on people Speaker 2: [inaudible]Speaker 4: the music heard during the show is from a low stone, a David album titled Folk and Acoustic released under a creative Commons attribution license 3.0 Speaker 2: [00:29:00] [inaudible] Speaker 4: production assistance from Rick Karnofsky Speaker 2: [inaudible].Speaker 4: Thank you for listening to spectrum.

Assistant Professor Ming Hammond. Welcome to spectrum. Hello. Thank you. Would you give us an overview of [00:01:30] the research that you're doing and in so doing, remind us what DNA and RNA are and how they're different. Speaker 1: Okay. Okay. I think a analogy that I like to use to describe the difference between DNA and RNA is that you can think of DNA as kind of an instruction manual for life. So that a very large instruction manual, several billion letters in length and it has all the instructions for how to make [00:02:00] all of the molecules, all the functioning parts of the cell RNA are messenger RNA is, are basically xerox copies of some pages of the DNA instruction manual that, um, gets used by the cell to translate the instructions into making proteins like enzymes and other components of the cell. Um, my lab is interested in how these RNA sequences are [00:02:30] regulated, how they're sent to different places in the cell and also how to change them so that we have, maybe we can control how the instructions are being used by the cell. Speaker 3: And so with that research, are you trying to create a generally applicable way to alter the RNA so that the gene is expressed differently? Speaker 1: Um, yes, exactly. And [00:03:00] first of all, understanding in nature how natural systems, um, control gene expression. And one reason we're interested in this is because for multicellular organisms like humans or plants, you have the same instruction manual in every single cell and yet you have multicellularity, right? So you have differences, different sets and instructions are being expressed [00:03:30] in different cell types, in different organs and in different portions of plants. For example, and were interested in understanding the basic mechanism for how the Messenger RNA is involved in ensuring that specific instructions are being followed in specific tissue types or specific cell types. Speaker 3: Does that then also include the idea that you mentioned of [00:04:00] certain of the messages are incorrect on purpose and so understanding that sounds complex, Speaker 1: right? So it's kind of interesting that one of the ways in which you can control, for example, whether a specific gene is expressed in the heart versus in the liver or the brain for example, is that messenger RNA for the same gene in the [00:04:30] brain is correct and can give rise to the proper protein and in the heart the same gene set of instructions can be spliced into messenger RNA in this specific way. That gives you a slightly different form of the protein. For example, one that has a slightly different function and therefore specific for that tissue. And then in the other case that I described, you might find in yet another tissue type that the same [00:05:00] message can be spliced so that it actually has a signal that says this is a garbage sequence, this is a nonsense message, don't follow this message. And the sal is smart enough to read these nonsense messages and know them to be nonsense. And what they do is the cell actually degrades these RNA. So for example, in that specific tissue type that the protein is never made. And so that's how you get [00:05:30] specialization of self. Speaker 3: And in your research are you trying to understand all of those cases? Speaker 1: We do most of our work in plants and we're very interested in the case where you can effectively shut off Accion in one condition, in war one cell type versus having it on or expressed in another cell type. So in plants, the mechanism that we study is [00:06:00] how these messages are lysed in these different ways. And that's called alternative splicing. And the predominant function of alternative spicing and plants appears to be this latter case where the messages either made and it's correct or it's made and has nonsense, but the reason I mentioned the other case is that it turns out something that's differentiates humans, for example, or mammals from plants. Besides the obvious differences, but a subtle [00:06:30] difference. The one I'm interested in is it turns out the majority of alternative splicing in mammals is actually to make different forms of that protein, so it's kind of interesting how the same basic mechanism is used by different organisms to do different things. Speaker 4: [inaudible]Speaker 3: you were listening to spectrum on k a l x Berkeley. Today we're talking with assistant professor Ming Hammond about [00:07:00] her work in messenger RNA and gene expression Speaker 4: [inaudible]Speaker 3: does the nonsense message have some value that you are researching that you are interested in understanding what is, what is the value of it to the, to the organism. Speaker 1: Okay. It's very important for the organism in general that the cell needs to have a way to know when a message or when a messenger RNA is [00:07:30] instructing nonsense because it's actually known that you can have mutations, for example, if you have a mutation in your gene that gives you a bad message. If sometimes that message then gets expressed as a protein, that protein with this altered function or ane may in fact lead to detrimental results, bad results for the south. Right. Um, and so, um, in general, the, there's a, [00:08:00] we call it a surveillance mechanism, so the cell is actually looking out for dad copies of the Messenger RNA. And so the cell normally has these surveillance mechanisms to, to, to play a very important role in keeping the, and keeping the cell healthy. And so I think what has happened is that the cell has started exploiting this mechanism to regulate chains for [00:08:30] tissue specificity and all of these other things I mentioned Speaker 3: in this regard. Are some cells smarter than others? Speaker 1: Hmm. I, I wouldn't say that [inaudible] Speaker 3: in terms of evolutionary activity, it would seem that this is kind of the place where that might go on in terms of changing an organism over time. How would RNA and nonsense allow for some sort of an evolutionary capacity to happen? Speaker 1: Okay. [00:09:00] First of all, the surveillance mechanism does not change the genomic DNA or she does not change the DNA instruction manual. Speaker 3: It's too far down the pipeline, right? So it's just reacting to the DNA instruction set, right? So it's really not there that any evolutionary activity is going to happen. It's going to happen at the higher lows. Right? Speaker 1: There are people that look to see for example, which, uh, which organisms do have this mechanism, right? So it's not that [00:09:30] some cells are smarter than others, but more that there are some organisms that don't have this surveillance pathway, for example. And bacteria do not, as far as we know, have NMD pathways, um, this nonsense mediated decay pathways, but a lot of organisms with a nucleus to have this mechanism. But one of the things that we're interested in in the lab is there is a lot of people that study this mechanism in humans and in other mammals. [00:10:00] And we're working in this in plants and we're looking at the comparison between them. What are the differences and what are the things that are similar Speaker 3: in your research? I noticed that there's something called molecular sensing that you're interested in. Can you explain that? Speaker 1: Sure. So, um, I mentioned that were studying how gene expression is regulated at the RNA level. And one of the really fascinating [00:10:30] things that I worked on as first as a postdoc and now that we're still working on in the lab is it turns out some of the Messenger RNA [inaudible] that exist in bacteria don't just encode the sequences for making proteins. But there is a little extra part of the Messenger RNA in the beginning part of the messenger RNA sequence that encodes what we call a ribo [00:11:00] switch. You can think about the riboswitch as basically a natural chemical sensor that's hooked up to the Messenger RNA. And what the rabis switch does is it responds to the presence of a chemical, for example, whether there is plenty of an amino acid in the south and the RNA is able to sense the presence of say the [00:11:30] amino acid and when it binds to this chemical, it changes its shape and through this confirmation or shape change, it causes the message downstream to actually get shut off. If you have enough of the amino acid, you turn off the gene that is used to make that amino acid because you don't need anymore. So I turns out there are many, many of these rabis switches [00:12:00] performing this simple chemical, boolean logic at the RNA level doing molecular sensing and in my lab were of course interested in the natural, these natural ones. And we're also interested in making unnatural ones as well. Speaker 3: And how is it that you utilize that information? Speaker 1: One way you can make use of the [inaudible] switch as I mentioned, is that its normal function is to turn on or turn off a chain depending on [00:12:30] the natural chemical logic is. So it turns out you can take the DNA sequence that encodes the ribo switch and you could put it in front of a different gene. And now that other gene also responds to this chemical. So it's actually a portable logic gate, so to speak. And what we're interested in is in making new Ribas switches, for example, making ones that can work in plants [00:13:00] because there is so far as we know, only one natural rubber switch that functions in plants and were interested in exploring whether we can transport these chemical sensors and utilize them and in other organisms including plant. Speaker 5: This is spectrum. I'm k a l x Berkeley. We're talking with the assistant professor Ming Hammond [00:13:30] about her research with messenger RNA and how it interacts with DNA genes. [inaudible] Speaker 3: so are you building those pre-IPO switches yourself or are you borrowing them from other organisms? Speaker 1: Um, well I would say it's actually a mix of both. We are also fundamentally interested in the mechanics of it too, right? How, how riboswitch with dysfunction. What is really amazing about Rabis, which is [00:14:00] is that there are so many different species of bacteria that utilize these Ribas switches and these bacteria live in all different types of climates than of them can live in extreme temperatures, both hot and cold and others are more, you know, soil dwelling organisms and live at pretty close to room temperature and all of them have the same sensor. And it's kind of an interesting question to ask how it is that the same sensor works [00:14:30] in all of these organisms? What part of the sequence of the, the switch of the RNA is responsible for for that [inaudible]. Speaker 3: So largely you, you work from the gene DNA area down into the RNA to control the expression of that gene. Speaker 1: Everything that we do does start the DNA level and we have in mind and designed for messenger RNA that we want. And then we can go back and say, okay, [00:15:00] at the DNA level, this is what the DNA instructions have to be to make that messenger RNA. And then we see, okay, let's build it weak. Then express it and see, okay, is the RNA doing? What we want it to and then further on is this messenger RNA being shut off the way that we want it to under this condition and then turned on under a different set of conditions. Speaker 3: And how do you judge whether or not you've had success? Is it pretty black and white [00:15:30] or is it somewhat gray? Speaker 1: One of the kind of very basic techniques that we use is a very simple assay. So you can imagine if we wanted to see whether under condition a this messenger RNA we designed is not making the protein versus condition B when when it is. So what we ended up using is what we call a reporter gene, a gene that expresses a protein that is fluorescent so that if [00:16:00] you shine light at a certain wavelength, you get a light emission from this protein. So we express the gene and in this case on the surface of the plant leaf and we can scan the leaf and let's say condition a is on the left hand side and condition B is on the right hand side. And we'll actually see that the right hand side, the leaf will be glowing and the left hand side of leaf not be glowing because of Ganar that we use to tact [00:16:30] the light emission from the surface of the leaf. Uh, it actually shows up as a gray scale limit. So that's how it turns out. Speaker 3: The organisms that you're currently working with, how do you select them? Speaker 1: One of the ways that you would want to select an organism is, is that other people have worked with the organism and that it's been shown by other researchers that it's easy to do the experiments that you're planning and that there are protocols developed for the experiments [00:17:00] that you're planning. And so it's kind of expedient, but we pick a plant called Nicole [inaudible], Tami Ana that is actually cousin to the tobacco plant, which is of some agricultural interests and also has been shown by other people to be very easy to work with for our experiments. Speaker 3: How has the hardware and the software that you use to do your research changed over the past? What 10 years that you've been doing this [inaudible] Speaker 1: [00:17:30] so we don't actually use much software. We can talk about the hardware. Sure we can like the development of technology to do DNA sequencing very, very rapidly has really been astonishing to see. And for my research in the RNA field, it has an equal impact I would say as well because it turns out if you want to study an RNA sequence, one of the ways we study it is that we do what's called a [00:18:00] reverse transcription. So we convert the RNA back to DNA and then we sequence the DNA that's made from the RNA. So it's kind of the reverse of the normal case of things that technology has enabled people to not just look at the human genome, but what we called a human transcriptome. So this is what are all the Messenger RNHS that are being expressed in different tissue types. And so that has led us to discovering, for [00:18:30] example, these differences in expression at different, um, messenger RNA is on a much, much grander scale. It much, much higher throughput scale than was possible 10 15 years ago. More fundamentally, it has made certain experiments that were impossible to do possible. Now the next challenge is how to sort through all that data Speaker 6: [inaudible]Speaker 5: you are tuned to k a l [00:19:00] x Berkeley. You're listening to spectrum. We're talking with Assistant Professor Mang Hammond about RNA based gene regulation Speaker 6: [inaudible].Speaker 1: Can you explain the a youth stem.org website and I believe you started this, didn't right. So my lab and I started this website called youth stem.org and the inspiration for the website is, it's actually kind of a personal story, [00:19:30] but I think it resonates with a lot of young scientists and other scientists is when I was a younger student, even before I went off to college and I was deciding what subjects I liked, what I like to do, I had these opportunities where yes, some of my science teachers saw something in me or thought that I would enjoy science and wanted to encourage me in the sciences and they would suggest that I go and do some of these programs that [00:20:00] are available in the state of Maryland, for example, where my family is from. And you know, I had a chance to work in a lab at the University of Maryland School of Pharmacy. Speaker 1: And I remember that made a really big impression on me when I was a freshman in college. And my freshman advisor asked me what I wanted to do for work study. I said that, well of course I wanted to do research in a lab because I said why I was already in a lab and in high school and I really liked it [00:20:30] and that's what I want to do for work study. And it was really exciting and really fun. So that's the origin story I guess of you stem. And in fact we have a lot of programs on the Berkeley campus for students interested in science that are, and that some of which pay actually a stipend. And not everyone can afford to pay money to do a summer program, but we have these free programs [00:21:00] that are I think really great. So I wanted to have a mechanism to point that out to local area students. Speaker 1: And the kind of idea I had was, well wouldn't it be great if we had like essentially a craigslist for bay area free local science and engineering and math programs? And so that's um, basically what we intend for a stem to be. [00:21:30] You can actually go on the website. It's you stem.org and you can click on a subject. You know, my favorite subject of course is chemistry. And so you could pick chemistry and it'll actually show you just the programs that are for students interested in chemistry. You can search by your grade and it tell you which programs are for you or you also filter by the location. So we're focused a lot on the East Bay, but there are also programs down in the South Bay down [00:22:00] in San Jose, Santa Cruz that we found in ones up in Monterrey. Speaker 3: So for people locally within the bay area who do have programs, they could contact you through the web. Speaker 1: Right? There's actually a link on the bottoms saying you're saying if you're a program director and you would like to list your program, the criteria is that we're interested in listing programs where the students can apply themselves or it can be nominated by a teacher that it's open to [00:22:30] any student that wants to apply. And uh, certainly we emphasize programs that are free or that pass state band. Speaker 3: And you recently received the NIH director's new innovator award. How did that happen? Speaker 1: Well, the short answer is I applied but um, yes. So it's, it's a really great honor to have received it and actually [00:23:00] to a members of the chemistry department received the new innovator where I this year, myself and Michelle Chang, another assistant professor in the same department. And so it, that was just really great news for both of us. And yeah, it was really a day for celebration in the lab for sure. I mean Hammon thanks very much for coming on spectrum. Thank you. It's a pleasure to be here. Thanks for having me. Brad. Speaker 6: [inaudible]Speaker 3: [00:23:30] irregular feature of spectrum is to mention a few of the science and technology events happening locally over the next few weeks.

Visit www.boneroompresents.com for more information now a few news items. Here's the Rick science [00:26:00] news reviews. A January 5th article in science by Sandra Garrett and Joshua Rosenthal at the University of Puerto Rico Medical Sciences campus in San Juan that shows that while octopuses in the Arctic have very similar DNA with warm water octopuses, their nerve cells are very different. This difference allows them to operate in the frigid waters and arises due to m RNA edits. These edits change the way that nerve cells opening includes gates to produce electrical impulses based on the species of octopus. This is the first [00:26:30] discovered example of m RNA editing to help an organism adapt to its environment and speculation remains as to how quickly and prevalent the mechanism might be. Speaker 3: In December, NASA announced seventh 2012 as the new target launch date for the space x commercial orbital transportation services milestone missions two and three. This mission begins with the liftoff of the Falcon nine rocket from Cape Canaveral boosting the Dragon's [00:27:00] spacecraft into low earth orbit. The space x dragon spacecraft will perform all of the commercial orbital transportation services, milestone mission two objectives, which include numerous operations in the vicinity of the International Space Station, and thereafter we'll perform the commercial orbital transportation services milestone mission three objectives. These include approach birthing with the International Space Station, astronauts opening the dragon spacecraft [00:27:30] and unloading cargo. Finally, the astronauts will close the space craft and send it back to Earth for recovery from the Pacific Ocean off the coast of California. This mission, if successful, will mark a major milestone in commercial American space flight Speaker 7: did January 4th issue of the Journal of neuroscience has an article by UCLA is Jenn Lang and others that reports promising anti-alcohol effects of a seed extract from the Asian Havana Dakis or Japanese [00:28:00] raising tree. This was first claimed to be a hangover remedy in the year six five nine rats that took dihydro, Myostatin or [inaudible] were found to take longer to become intoxicated and recovered four times more quickly than rats who did not take the extract. The extract further decrease the likelihood of hangover, anxiety and seizures in the rats. DSM also curved alcohol consumption. Rats consumed more and more alcohol gradually when it allowed, but d h m leased alcohol does not lead to this increased [00:28:30] consumption. DHM blocks alcohol's effects on Gaba receptors and the team has found no side effects in animal testing. They old next study the health effects on people Speaker 2: [inaudible]Speaker 4: the music heard during the show is from a low stone, a David album titled Folk and Acoustic released under a creative Commons attribution license 3.0 Speaker 2: [00:29:00] [inaudible] Speaker 4: production assistance from Rick Karnofsky Speaker 2: [inaudible].Speaker 4: Thank you for listening to spectrum.
