Welcome to our podcast series from The Super Network and Pop4D called Tubi Tuesdays Podcast! This podcast series is focused on discovering and doing commentaries/watch a longs for films found on the free streaming service Tubi, at TubiTV Your hosts for Tubi Tuesdays are Super Marcey, ‘The Terrible Australian' Bede Jermyn, Prof. Batch (From Pop4D & Web Tales: A Spider-Man Podcast) and Kollin (From Trash Panda Podcast), will take turns each week picking a film to watch and most of them will be ones we haven't seen before.Movie Starts Playing At: 00:09:59Welcome back to The Tubi Tuesdays Podcast, the number one Tubi related podcast that's hosted by two Australians, one Canadian and one American! All four hosts are indeed here (for the most part) with Super Marcey, Bede Jermyn, Prof. Batch and Kollin! This week is Bede's pick, however his choice of film isn't a terrible one and it's one that Marcey also really enjoys with The Golden Bat aka Golden Ninja (1966)! For some reason the film goes by the title Golden Ninja on Tubi, but it is best known as The Golden Bat or Ôgon batto. The character of The Golden Bat may actually be the first comicbook superhero predating Superman, he may actually be the most fashion hero as well. Enjoy the show!The Golden Bat aka Golden Ninja was directed by Hajime Satô, it stars Sonny Chiba, Andrew Hughes, Wataru Yamagawa, Hisako Tsukuba, Emily Takami, Kôji Sekiyama and Kôsaku Okano.If you have never listened to a commentary before and want to watch the film along with the podcast, here is how it works. You simply need to grab a copy of the film or load it up on Tubi (you may need alcohol), and sync up the podcast audio with the film. We will tell you when to press and you follow along, it is that easy! Because we have watched the films on Tubi, it is a free service and there are ads, however we will give a warning when it comes up, so you can pause the film and provide time stamps to keep in sync.Highlights Include:* Phew Marcey is back!* Kollin's up and down due to the kids!* Gotta love that The Golden Bat dresses like Skeletor and Liberace!* Is there more unofficial product placement this episode?* Did you acknowledge your Tribal Kief today?* Look we really couldn't tell ya what's happening in this film!* The film is on the cheap side but quite a lot of fun!* Plus much, much more!Check out The Super Network on Patreon to gain early access to The Tubi Tuesdays Podcast!DISCLAIMER: This audio commentary isn't meant to be taken seriously, it is just a humourous look at a film. It is for entertainment purposes, we do not wish to offend anyone who worked on and in the film, we have respect for you all. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

F. F. Abstract: Dyskinesia is involuntary movement caused by long-term medication with dopamine-related agents: the dopamine agonist, L-DOPA, to treat Parkinson disease (L-DOPA-induced dyskinesia [LID]) or dopamine antagonists to treat schizophrenia (tardive dyskinesia [TD]). However, it remains unknown why distinct types of medications for distinct neuropsychiatric disorders induce similar involuntary movements. Here, we searched for a shared structural footprint using magnetic resonance imaging-based macroscopic screening and super-resolution microscopy-based microscopic identification. We identified the enlarged axon terminals of striatal medium spiny neurons in both LID and TD model mice. The striatal overexpression of vesicular gamma-aminobutyric acid transporter (VGAT) was necessary and sufficient for modeling these structural changes; VGAT levels gated the functional and behavioral alterations in dyskinesia models. Our findings indicate that lowered type 2 dopamine receptor signaling with repetitive dopamine fluctuations is a common cause of VGAT overexpression and late-onset dyskinesia formation, and that reducing dopamine fluctuation rescues dyskinesia pathology via VGAT downregulation.

Abstract: This study presents a newly developed method to rapidly and efficiently induce human spinal lower motor neurons (LMNs) from induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) for elucidation of the amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) pathomechanism and drug screening. Previous methods had several limitations such as poor efficiency and low purity of LMN induction and labor intensiveness of the induction and evaluation procedures. Our new protocol achieved nearly 80% induction efficiency in only 2 weeks by combining a small molecule-based approach and transduction of transcription factors. To overcome cellular heterogeneity, we analyzed morphology and viability of iPSC-derived LMNs on a cell-by-cell basis using time-lapse microscopy and machine learning, thus establishing a highly accurate pathophysiological evaluation system. Our rapid, efficient, and simplified protocol and single cell-based evaluation method allow the conduct of large-scale analysis and drug screening using iPSC-derived motor neurons.

F., Takahashi, S., Suzuki, K., Kassai, H., Aiba, A., Shiozawa, S., Okano, H., Osakada, F. Abstract: Studying the non-human primate (NHP) brain is required for the translation of rodent research to humans, but remains a challenge for molecular, cellular, and circuit-level analyses in the NHP brain due to the lack of NHP brain system. Here, we report an NHP cerebral model using marmoset (Callithrix jacchus) embryonic stem cell-derived cerebral assembloids (CAs) that recapitulate inhibitory neuron migration and cortical network activity. Cortical organoids (COs) and ganglionic eminence organoids (GEOs) were induced from cjESCs and fused to generate CAs. GEO cells expressing the inhibitory neuron marker LHX6 migrated toward the cortical side of CAs. COs developed their neural activity from a synchronized pattern to an unsynchronized pattern as COs matured. CAs showed mature neural activity with an unsynchronized pattern. The marmoset assembloid system will provide an platform for the NHP neurobiology and facilitate translation into humans in neuroscience research, regenerative medicine, and drug discovery.

Abstract: Cortical excitatory neurons (Cx neurons) are the most dominant neuronal cell type in the cerebral cortex and play a central role in cognition, perception, intellectual behavior, and emotional processing. Robust in vitro induction of Cx neurons may facilitate as a tool for the elucidation of brain development and the pathomechanism of the intractable neurodevelopmental and neurodegenerative disorders, including Alzheimers disease, and thus potentially contribute to drug development. Here, we report a defined method for the efficient induction of Cx neurons from the feeder-free-conditioned human embryonic stem cells (ES cells) and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS cells). Using this method, human ES/iPS cells could be differentiated into ~99% MAP2-positive neurons by three weeks, and these induced neurons displayed several characteristics of mature excitatory neurons within 5 weeks, such as strong expression of glutamatergic neuron-specific markers (subunits of AMPA and NDMA receptors and CAMKII), highly synchronized spontaneous firing and excitatory postsynaptic current (EPSC). In addition, the Cx neurons showed susceptibility to A{beta} oligomer toxicity and excessive glutamate excitotoxicity, which is another advantage for toxicity testing and searching for therapeutic agent discovery. Taken together, this study provides a novel research platform for studying neural development and degeneration based on the feeder-free human ES/iPS cell system.

Link to bioRxiv paper: http://biorxiv.org/cgi/content/short/2022.09.21.508952v1?rss=1 Authors: Hata, J., Nakae, K., Tsukada, H., Woodward, A., Haga, Y., Iida, M., Uematsu, A., Seki, F., Ichinohe, N., Gong, R., Kaneko, T., Yoshimaru, D., Watakabe, A., Abe, H., Tani, T., skibbe, h., Maeda, M., Papazian, F., Hagiya, K., Kishi, N., Shimogori, T., Yamamori, T., Okano, H. j., Okano, H. Abstract: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a noninvasive neuroimaging method beneficial for the identification of normal developmental and aging processes and data sharing. Marmosets have a relatively shorter life expectancy (approximately 10 years) than other primates, including, humans because they grow and age faster. Hence, the common marmoset model is effective in aging research. The current study investigated the aging process of the marmoset brain and provided an open MRI database on marmosets with a wide age range. The Brain/MINDS Marmoset Brain MRI Dataset contains brain MRI information on 216 marmosets aged between 1 and 10 years. During its release date, it is the largest public dataset worldwide. Further, it comprises multi contrast MRI images. In addition, 91 of 216 animals have corresponding ex vivo high-resolution MRI datasets. Our MRI database, which is available at the Brain/MINDS Data portal might help understand the effects of different factors, such as age, sex, body size, and fixation, on the brain. Moreover, it can contribute to and accelerate brain science studies worldwide. Copy rights belong to original authors. Visit the link for more info Podcast created by PaperPlayer

Abstract: In contrast to mammals, the avian cochlea, specifically the basilar papilla, can regenerate sensory hair cells, which involves fate conversion of supporting cells to hair cells. To determine the mechanisms for converting supporting cells to hair cells, we used single-cell RNA sequencing during hair cell regeneration in explant cultures of chick basilar papillae. We identified dynamic changes in the gene expression of supporting cells, and the pseudotime trajectory analysis demonstrated the stepwise fate conversion from supporting cells to hair cells. Initially, supporting cell identity was erased and transition to the precursor state occurred. A subsequent gain in hair cell identity progressed together with downregulation of precursor-state genes. Transforming growth factor beta receptor 1-mediated signaling was involved in induction of the initial step, and its inhibition resulted in suppression of hair cell regeneration. Our data provide new insights for understanding fate conversion from supporting cells to hair cells in avian basilar papillae. Copy rights belong to original authors.

Chris OkanoA segment!Cam comes in late (fucker).Japanator is touched upon, but MicroKok incoming!Kathy Kat, your favorite Jvlogger (apparently) releases a cringe top ten list.Daniel Lord exchanges cereal for cheesecake.Nobita tries to protect gaijin from toxic Japanese women.Tkyosam kicks Jay out of Sam’s Discord group. Sam also says that KoK needs to “do their research”. An untrue statement that Jay ended up taking way too fucking seriously!Yes sir! That is one fine looking A segment.Segment BUnlike our regular jvlogger flunkies, who grow up dirt poor and try to etch out a life with zero skills, Chris Okano was born to money, and still wound up with zero skills. Okano like all jvloggers creates content layered in dullness and unawareness. But the insidiousness of a Chris has another layer, he is a gigantic tit that has given milk to other jvloggers and is partially responsible for the current Jvlog industry.Previous nominee Jvloggers such as Sharla and Kelly Morita are actually employees of his old company Tokyo Creative. And the sponsorships might actually play a hand in the gross spread of misinformation that Jvloggers espouse.Segment B takes a dry departure from our regular comedic content. It is the result of a fall down a rabbit hole, but leads to some rich understanding of the “why” of Jvlogging.

In this episode Dr. Kenichiro Okano displays how shame and social phobia could manifest differently between the Eastern and the Western countries, and investigates them from a psychoanalytical point of view. With his personal history of becoming a bicultural psychiatrist and psychoanalyst in the United States and in Japan, he considers that while passivity and non-action induced by shame can be misunderstood in Western culture, it can potentially exert some paradoxical power and influence, at least in the Japanese society. In its conceptualizations, the dissociation construct plays a central role, consistent with its research and clinical experience. Dr Kenichiro Okano is a Japanese psychiatrist and psychoanalyst, and professor of Clinical Psychology at Kyoto University Department of Education. He is a training and supervising analyst in the Japan Psychoanalytic Society. He is the author of 26 books on psychoanalysis, dissociative disorder, and neurobiology. In 2016 he won The Japanese Psychoanalytical Association’s Distinguished Publications Award.This episode is availablealso in Japanese

Y., Kuwako, K.-i., Okahara, J., Bae, B.-I., Okuno, M., Mashiko, H., Shimogori, T., Walsh, C. A., Sasaki, E., Okano, H. Abstract: GPR56, a member of the adhesion G protein-coupled receptor family, is abundantly expressed in cells of the developing cerebral cortex, including neural progenitor cells and developing neurons. The human GPR56 gene has multiple presumptive promoters that drive the expression of the GPR56 protein in distinct patterns. Similar to coding mutations of the human GPR56 gene that may cause GPR56 dysfunction, a 15-bp homozygous deletion in the cis-regulatory element upstream of the noncoding exon 1 of GPR56 (e1m) leads to the cerebral cortex malformation and epilepsy. To clarify the expression profile of the e1m promoter-driven GPR56 in primate brain, we generated a transgenic marmoset line in which EGFP is expressed under the control of the human minimal e1m promoter. In contrast to the endogenous GPR56 protein, which is highly enriched in the ventricular zone of the cerebral cortex, EGFP is mostly expressed in developing neurons in the transgenic fetal brain. Furthermore, EGFP is predominantly expressed in GABAergic neurons, whereas the total GPR56 protein is evenly expressed in both GABAergic and glutamatergic neurons, suggesting the GABAergic neuron-preferential activity of the minimal e1m promoter. These results indicate a possible pathogenic role for GABAergic neuron in the cerebral cortex of patients with GPR56 mutations. Copy rights belong to original authors. Visit the link for more info

Abstract: The last decade has witnessed an extremely rapid increase in the number of newly established stem cell lines worldwide. However, due to the lack of a standardized format, data exchange among stem cell line information resources has been challenging, and no system can search all stem cell lines across resources worldwide. To solve this problem, we have developed the Integrated Collection of Stem Cell Bank data (ICSCB) (http://icscb.stemcellinformatics.org/), a new and largest database search portal for stem cell line data from various resources, based on the standardized data items and terms of the MIACARM framework. Currently, ICSCB can retrieve 15,796 cell lines from four major data resources in Europe, Japan, and the U.S. ICSCB is automatically updated to provide the latest cell line information, and its integrative search engine helps users collect cell line information from donors with rare diseases worldwide, which has been a formidable task, thereby distinguishing itself from other database search portals.

J., Hamada, Y., Hirabayashi, T., Minamimoto, T., Sadato, N., Okano, H., Oishi, K. Abstract: A comparison of neuroanatomical features of the brain between humans and our evolutionary relatives, nonhuman primates, is key to understanding the human brain system and the neural basis of mental and neurological disorders. Although most comparative MRI studies of human and nonhuman primate brains have been based on brains of primates that had been used as subjects in experiments, it is essential to investigate various species of nonhuman primates in order to elucidate and interpret the diversity of neuroanatomy features among humans and nonhuman primates. To develop a research platform for this purpose, it is necessary to harmonize the scientific contributions of studies with the standards of animal ethics, animal welfare, and the conservation of brain information for long-term continuation of the field. In previous research, we first developed an open-resource repository of anatomical images obtained using 9.4-T ex vivo MRI of postmortem brain samples from 12 nonhuman primate species, and which are stored at the Japan Monkey Centre. In the present study, as a second phase, we released a collection of T2-weighted images and diffusion tensor images obtained in nine species: white-throated capuchin, Bolivian squirrel monkey, stump-tailed macaque, Tibet monkey, Sykes' monkey, Assamese macaque, pig-tailed macaque, crested macaque, and chimpanzee. Our image repository should facilitate scientific discoveries in the field of comparative neuroscience. This repository can also promote animal ethics and animal welfare in experiments with nonhuman primate models by optimizing methods for in vivo and ex vivo MRI scanning of brains and supporting veterinary neuroradiological education. In addition, the repository is expected to contribute to conservation, preserving information about the brains of various primates, including endangered species, in a permanent digital form.

Abstract: Ectopic induction of optogenetic actuators, such as channelrhodopsin, is a promising approach to restore vision in the degenerating retina. However, the cell type-specific response of ectopic photoreception has not been well understood. It is not easy to obtain efficient gene expression in a specifically targeted cell population by a transgenic approach. In the present study, we established retinal ganglion cell (RGC)- and amacrine cell gene induction in a murine model with high efficiency using an improved tetracycline transactivator-operator bipartite system (KENGE-tet system). To investigate the cell type-specific visual restoration effect, we expressed the channel rhodopsin gene into RGCs and amacrine cells using this system. Then, enhancement of the visual restoration effect was observed by gene transfer not only to RGCs but also to starburst amacrine cells. It was suggested that photoresponse from amacrine cells enhanced the maintained response of ganglion cells and furthered the visual restoration effect. Copy rights belong to original authors.

Tom and Bill talk Runaways Tribute to Stan Lee 4:30-10:00 Runaways Season 1 review (Spoilers) 10:00-39:53 Preview Runaways Season 2 Notes: Main Rhenzy Feliz as Alex Wilder: A nerd who longs to reunite with his childhood friends. He has a high intellect and is the leader of the Runaways.[4] Lyrica Okano as Nico Minoru: A Wiccan who isolates herself with her gothic appearance and is a member of the Runaways.[4] Unlike the comics, Nico does not summon the Staff of One through self-harm. Okano said this was tweaked, "for good reason" as there would be "a lot of young teenagers watching the show and we don't want to promote anything like self-harm because that's serious". She added that an element of drawing blood would still be involved.[5] Virginia Gardner as Karolina Dean: A human-alien hybrid burdened by her religious upbringing who wants to pursue her own desires instead of following in her mother's footsteps, and is a member of the Runaways.[4] Karolina has the ability of flight, to glow with rainbow-colored light, and to shoot beams of light.[6] Ariela Barer as Gert Yorkes: A riot grrrl, social activist, and a member of the Runaways. She also has a telepathic link with her genetically engineered dinosaur, Old Lace.[4] Gregg Sulkin as Chase Stein: A high school lacrosse player who is often dismissed as a dumb jock, but displays brilliance in engineering and is a member of the Runaways.[4] Sulkin and the writers wanted the character to be "more layered" than the comics, and Sulkin felt that Chase was the most changed of the Runaways from the source material.[7] The character is depicted as having the potential to be as much of a genius as his father is,[8] and builds gadgets, including powerful weaponized gauntlets called "Fistigons".[9] Connor Falk portrays a young Chase.[10] Allegra Acosta as Molly Hernandez: The youngest member of the Runaways who is characterized by her positive attitude.

Rethinking Japanese Studies. Eurocentrism and the Asia-Pacific Region (Routledge, 2018) is co-edited by Kaori Okano and Yoshio Sugimoto. The book tries to look at the discipline of Japanese Studies from a variety of perspectives and in a variety of contexts, starting from the premise that – as the authors put it – Japanese Studies is not the exclusive property of the anglophone world. In the volume, the authors try to answer several key questions: * What variations are there among the academic communities of Japanese Studies in Asia? * Is there a local intellectual approach that displays a degree of autonomy from the global scholarship in the English-using world? * In what ways have some academic disciplines or approaches been affected by Anglo-Western scholarship to a greater extent than others? Why? * What are the potential contributions of Japanese Studies in the Asia-Pacific to Japanese Studies globally? In the interview, co-editor Kaori Okano answers some of these questions.

The genome of mammals harbors chemical modifications at some cytosine residues in the form of a methyl group. These modified residues, termed 5’-methylcytosines, have been discovered more than 50 years ago (Hotchkiss 1948) and have since been shown to play important roles in the regulation of gene expression and in the execution of developmental programs. Patterns of cytosine methylation (also referred to as DNA methylation) are carefully set and preserved during cellular expansion and global methylation levels are well regulated throughout development. Changes in methylation patterns and levels have been associated with disease progression and death (Li et al. 1992; Okano et al. 1999; Ehrlich 2002). Specifically, elevated levels of global genomic methylation have been shown to play a role in the inactivation of tumor suppressor genes in many types of cancer (Ehrlich 2002). In contrast, reduced levels of methylation have been observed in a wide variety of tumors and complete demethylation in vivo causes embryonic death (Li et al. 1992; Ehrlich 2002). In an effort to study the effect of changed methylation levels in vivo and its effect on disease progression, we developed a genetic approach to study the effect of hypomethylation during embryogenesis and adulthood. DNA methyltransferase 1 (Dnmt1) is the major methyltransferase in mammals and genetic inactivation of the Dnmt1 gene causes demethylation that results in cell death in tissue culture and embryonic lethality of homozygous mutant mice at E8.5 (Li et al. 1992). In a first step, the 5’ end of the Dnmt1 gene was characterized to determine the structure of a new oocyte-specific isoform found in oocytes and early embryos. Upon elucidation of the structure of this isoform, assays were developed to test its function in vivo. Loss of this oocyte-specific isoform protein resulted in hypomethylation of an IAP reporter element suggesting a role for this protein in early development. In contrast, the somatic Dnmt1 isoform, which is present in all somatic cells, was important for maintaining this IAP element methylated following implantation of the embryo and throughout adulthood. Reduced levels of Dnmt1 in adults caused global hypomethylation and resulted in the development of thymic lymphomas which displayed a duplication of chromosome 15 (trisomic 15). The c-myc oncogene, which resides on chromosome 15, was overexpressed, and a gene expression array analysis revealed that another oncogene, Notch-1, was also overexpressed in all tumors. Cooperation between those oncogenes has been previously shown to induce thymic lymphomas. Analysis of the Notch-1 locus demonstrated the presence of IAP insertions upstream of the oncogenic cytoplasmic domain capable of activating transcription of truncated oncogenic Notch-1. IAP elements were shown to be activated by hypomethylation albeit not as much as traditional mutagenic retroviruses. These results thus show that hypomethylation may induce tumorigenesis in this model following two mechanisms. First by inducing chromosome instability and second by creating insertional mutagenesis of defective retroviral elements such as IAPs. These results demonstrate for the first time that hypomethylation can directly induce tumorigenesis in mice and induce chromosome instability.
