Fairy Prion - The fairy prion tītī wainui is a small blue seabird that once bred all around the coastline of mainland Aotearoa. Voracious introduced predators forced fairy prion colonies onto offshore islands – but one mainland population clings to survival on steep cliffs near Ōtepoti Dunedin, where Forest and Bird carries out predator control to protect these precious birds. Dunedin Wildlife Hospital's Jordana Whyte is joined by Graeme Loh, who runs the Friends of the Prion fence project up on the St Clair cliffs. This show was broadcast on OAR 105.4FM Dunedin - oar.org.nz

From Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE) to Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD), Neil Mabbott, Ph.D., has worked for nearly 2 decades on understanding the mechanisms by which prion proteins become infectious and cause neurological disease in humans and animals. He discusses the remarkable properties of prions and addresses complexities surrounding symptoms, transmission and diagnosis of prion disease.

Biomedical researcher Sonia Vallabh's life was turned upside down when she learned she had the genetic mutation for a rare and fatal illness, prion disease, that could strike at any time. Thirteen years later, her search for a cure has led to new insights about how to catch and prevent disease — and how to honor our grandest, most mysterious inheritance: our brains.

FOR PRION OUT LOUD PART 1APRIL, 7TH 2024      AARON SMITH      SEASON 1      EPISODE 67 SHOW NOTES: (AI generated)Have you ever wondered just how deep the rabbit hole goes when it comes to the science and satire surrounding public health policies? I'm Aaron Smith, and this episode pulls back the curtain on the controversial topic of mRNA COVID vaccines, with a sprinkle of humor to start us off. We kick things off with a spoof recording that might make you chuckle, but then we get down to the nitty-gritty. Why have I chosen to steer clear of the jab? It's not a decision I've made lightly, and I'm here to share the peer-reviewed research that's had me thinking twice. Together with special contributor Brock Tanslacks, we're stirring up a crucial conversation about vigilance and personal choice in the face of experimental medical treatments.Strap in for a chapter that shifts gears from playful banter to the pressing issue of potential health risks that accompany uncharted scientific territory. Adopting the mindset of 'guilty until proven innocent,' we examine the principle of doing no harm in the face of emergency medical interventions. And as we ponder the hypothesis correlating the spike protein in COVID vaccines with prion diseases, it's clear that this is no laughing matter. The stakes are high, and the need for greater scrutiny is evident. By the end of this episode, you'll have a whole new perspective on the delicate balance of information and the implications our health choices today could have for years to come.LINKS:NIH- A Potential Role of the Spike Protein in Neurodegenerative Diseases: A Narrative Reviewhttps://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9922164Wikipedia UK Mad Cow Disease:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Kingdom_BSE_outbreak#ReferencesDeadly Feasts:https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/Deadly-Feasts/Richard-Rhodes/9780684844251Brain Trust:https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/Brain-Trust/Colm-A-Kelleher/9781416507567Pinky and the Brain:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e_mPrhwpZ-8THE SUBTLECAIN SPOTLIGHT: MOE FACTZ WITH ADAM CURRYhttps://www.moefactz.comSupport the showYou are valued, you are loved, and you are worthy.

Get your DEMYSTICON 2024 tickets here: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/demysticon-2024-tickets-727054969987 Today we are hanging out with our friend Dr. Michael Hughes, a post-doctoral fellow at St. Jude's Research Hospital in Memphis. Michael has a long history of trying to understand the role that water plays in fundamental biological operations from structural assembly to diseases like Alzheimers and Prion disorders. Presently, he is hard at work on a biological theory of everything where water plays out the role of central actor in biological processes from form to consciousness. Our conversation today begins with Michael's journey into the water rabbit hole, exploring the strange way that water structures itself within cells. We work toward an understanding of water as a photo-electrically, an electro-statically sensitive molecule capable of mechanically altering cellular function in response to conscious and external signals. We hope to have Michael back to explore a mutual fascination with the historic interface of spirituality and science by way of Rudolph Steiner and Western esotericism.

New clinical trials for treatments of an always fatal brain disease, and what happens with pests when a conventional and organic farm are neighbors   First up on this week's show, a new treatment to stave off prion disease goes into clinical trials. Prions are misfolded proteins that clump together and chew holes in the brain. The misfolding can be switched on in a number of ways—including infection with a misfolded prion protein from an animal or person. Staff Writer Meredith Wadman talks with host Sarah Crespi about new potential treatments—from antisense nucleotides to small molecules that interfere with protein production—for these fatal neurodegenerative diseases.   Next on the show: Freelance producer Katherine Irving talks with Ashley Larsen, associate professor of agricultural and landscape ecology at the University of California, Santa Barbara, about the effects of organic farms on their neighbors. If there are lots of organic growers together, pesticide use goes down but conventional farms tend to use more pesticides when side by side with organic farms.   This week's episode was produced with help from Podigy.   About the Science Podcast   Authors: Sarah Crespi; Katherine Irving; Meredith Wadman LINKS FOR MP3 META   Episode page: https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.z91m76v

BrainWaves is an academic audio podcast whose mission is to educate medical providers through clinical cases and topical reviews in neurology, medicine, and the humanities, and episodes originally aired from 2016 to 2021. Originally released: July 18, 2017 Prions are perhaps some of the most terrifying infectious particles known to man. But did you know that patients with some prion diseases actually shed these contagious proteins in their urine? These and other facts about prion diseases are discussed in this week's episode of BrainWaves. BrainWaves podcasts and online content are intended for medical education only and should not be used to guide medical decision-making in routine clinical practice. REFERENCES Zabel MD, Reid C.

Mad cow disease, also known as bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) was first discovered in cattle in the UK in 1986. In 1996, BSE made its way into humans for the first time, setting off panic and fascination with the fatal disease that causes rapid onset dementia. In this episode, Sam and Deboki cover the cause, spread and concern surrounding mad cow and other prion diseases. The Tiny Show & Tell stories are here and here.

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Will the growing deer prion epidemic spread to humans? Why not?, published by eukaryote on June 25, 2023 on LessWrong. Helpful background reading: What's the deal with prions? A novel lethal infectious neurological disease emerged in American deer a few decades ago. Since then, it's spread rapidly across the continent. In areas where the disease is found, it can be very common in the deer there. Chronic wasting disease isn't caused by a bacteria, virus, protist, or worm – it's a prion, which is a little misshapen version of a protein that occurs naturally in the nervous systems of deer. Chemically, the prion is made of exactly the same stuff as its regular counterpart – it's a string of the same amino acids in the same order, just shaped a little differently. Both the prion and its regular version (PrP) are monomers, single units that naturally stack on top of each other or very similar proteins. The prion's trick is that as other PrP moves to stack atop it, the prion reshapes them – just a little – so that they also become prions. These chains of prions are quite stable, and, over time, they form long, persistent clusters in the tissue of their victims. We know of only a few prion diseases in humans. They're caused by random chance misfolds, a genetic predisposition for PrP to misfold into a prion, accidental cross-contamination via medical supplies, or, rarely, from the consumption of prion-infected meat. Every known animal prions is a misfold of the same specific protein, PrP. PrP is expressed in the nervous system, particularly in the brain – so infections cause neurological symptoms and physical changes to the structure of the brain. Prion diseases are slow to develop (up to decades), incurable, and always fatal. There are two known infectious prion diseases in people. One is kuru, which caused an epidemic among tribes who practiced funerary cannibalism in Papua New Guinea. The other is mad cow disease, also known as bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) AKA Variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, which was first seen in humans in 1996 in the UK, and comes from cows. Chronic wasting disease (CWD). Is, like every other animal prion disease, a misfold of PrP. PrP is quite similar in both humans and deer. Is found in multiple deer species which are commonly eaten by humans. Can be carried in deer asymptomatically. But it doesn't seem to infect people. Is it ever going to? If a newly-emerged virus were sweeping across the US and killing deer, which could be spread through consuming infected meat, I would think “oh NO.” I'd need to see very good evidence to stop sounding the alarm. Now, the fact that it's been a few decades, and it hasn't spread to humans yet, is definitely some kind of evidence about safety. But are we humans basically safe from it, or are we living on borrowed time? If you live in an area where CWD has been detected, should you eat the deer? Sidenote: Usually, you'll see “BSE” used for the disease in cows and “VCJ” for the disease in humans. But they're caused by the same agent and this essay is operating under a zoonotic One Health kind of stance, so I'm just calling the disease BSE here. (As well as the prion that causes it, when I can get away with it.) In short The current version of CWD is not infectious to people. We checked. BSE showed that prions can spill over, and there's no reason a new CWD variant will never do the same. The more cases there are, the more likely it is to spill over. That said, BSE did not spill over very effectively. It was always incredibly rare in humans. It's an awful disease to get, but the chance of getting it is tiny. Prions in general have a harder time spilling over between species than viruses do. CWD might behave somewhat differently but probably will stay hampered by the species barrier. Why do I think all of thi...

While it's true enough that the response in the U.S. was damaging economically, these countries with national healthcare systems enforced vaccination of mRNA shots on their citizens directly, revealing strong, undeniable trends that show the folly in this thinking. Join me in today's show where we focus on the destructive fallout experienced in Canada following these mandatory inoculations of the experimental mRNA technology.

Dr. Stephanie Seneff's newest research collaboration on neurodegenerative diseases caused by misfolded proteins from mRNA ‘vaccinations'. “Potential Mechanisms for Human Genome Integration of Genetic Code from SARS-CoV-2 mRNA Vaccination: Implications for Disease.” J Neurol Disord 10 (2022):519. Seneff, S. Kiriakopoulos, AM, McCullough, PA, and Nigh G. Some of our topics: Every protein has a natural folded state to do its job. Neurodegenerative disease are caused by misfiled proteins. Prion proteins are misfolded proteins Exosomes carrying toxins travel up the vagus nerves lead to neurological issues re: Bells Palsy, headaches, difficulty swallowing, hearing issues, nausea mRNA tech has been around for a long time but the trails keep failing Spike protein causes other proteins to misfiled and causes inflammation Cancer is caused by DNA double breaks…Spike proteins break DNA RNA eventually disappears but once it gets into the DNA it is there for life. And much more… Dr. Seneff's Website Link to FullerLife Carbon 60 (Janean does receive a small referral reward) The Universal Antidote documentary As soon as the paper is published, I will put the link here!

In this episode, we learn about prions and the neurodegenerative diseases they cause. Join us as Michael Terranova explains how these rare infectious proteins impact patients and why the medical community needs to be aware of their effects. Michael Terranova earned his BS and MS degrees at UC San Diego, and he is currently a medical student at the Loyola University Chicago Stritch School of Medicine. A lifelong interest in neurology led Michael to research the neurobiology of substance use at the San Diego Veterans Affairs Healthcare System before researching rapidly progressive dementias at the UC San Francisco Memory and Aging Center. He is also an avid automotive enthusiast, having participated in the Society of Automotive Engineers International Collegiate Design Series and restored multiple classic cars with his family.

Thank you Sean Hagedorn OMS III and Boston Loveless OMS III developing this podcast. Thank you Joshua "Superman" Hansen, OMS III for joining us! This podcast reviews the diagnosis of Prion Disease providing an overview of what we found helpful and interesting. This podcast has high yield information at the onset about the diagnosis and also has a segment near the end addressing strategies for preparing for the neurocognitive disorders questions that may present on the shelf. This is likely a high yield podcast for that topic. We enjoyed our discussion and hope you find it as interesting as we did! Thank you Jordan Turner for creating the perfect bumper music!

GUEST OVERVIEW: Dr Kevin McCairn Ph.D. is a Systems Neuroscientist with over 25 years of academic and industry experience. His specialization in functional whole brain networks, neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases has placed him at the center of the ongoing controversies surrounding SARS-CoV-2, having published some of the earliest peer reviewed work indicating a lab origin for the virus. He speaks publicly about the risks of forced gene transfection/vaccination as a method to treat SARS-CoV-2 infection. He is currently working on primate models to assess the risk of systemic and neurological adverse events from Spike Protein exposure, especially the risk from PRION disorders. He is also a signatory in a campaign to bring indictments against the individuals and organizations who are responsible for the creation of SARS-CoV-2 via 10letters.org.

Prion disorders are rare neurological diseases where a protein within the nervous system converts to a pathological form. The change in conformation affects other proteins, recruiting them to the misshapen, deleterious type. Chronic wasting disease is a neurological disease of deer, caused by prion conversion. In this episode Dr. Sandra Pritzkow from University of Texas Health - Houston describes prion related disease, and specifically the atypical transmission elements of chronic wasting disease. 

In 18th-century England, inbred sheep are afflicted with a disease that leaves them with an unscratchable itch. In New Guinea, a group of indigenous people blame sorcery for “kuru,” a disease causing tremors and uncontrollable fits of emotion. By the 1980s, scientists discovered they shared a groundbreaking link — one that could help explain why an Italian family was dying of insomnia.  Parcasters, we have exciting news!

This week on The Conduct Science Podcast, join Mitch and Tom as they dive into the body to explore proteins! Just as you might imagine though they get lost on the way talking about dreams, chocolate, and other things just to spice things up. While on topic though the boys explore what protein is and why we should eat it and what cellular proteins are inside the body! Mitch breaks down the different types of amino acids and their functions within proteins and the body while tom breaks down protein function and folding... which is wild. Mitch takes us on the GAIN TRAIN telling us exactly what happens when you lift weights and finally the boys end the show talking about the interesting but very scary: Prion diseases.

"Mad Cow Disease" emerged in the United Kingdom in 1986. Named from the symptoms seen in cattle, it was eventually renamed more appropriately to Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE). When humans are infected, the disease seen is variant creutzfeldt-jakob disease (vCJD).  This episode explores the story of how a prion shaped the beef and biotech industries and revealed a failure in questions and ethics.  We are joined by Dr. Fiona Houston (senior researcher and veterinarian), Anne McVey (ethics advocate and mother of a victim), and Kelly Creighton (biologics manufacturing regulatory expert).Join us to learn how scientists tackle emerging infections, why we need to ask the hard questions, and how this prion has shaped the industry.
