Today we have Dr. Rudolph E. Tanzi, who is perhaps best known for co-discovering all three familial early-onset Alzheimer's disease genes. In addition, Rudy's lab was the first to use human stem cells to create three-dimensional human brain organoids and three-dimensional neural-glial culture models of Alzheimer's disease, which became known as “Alzheimer's-in-a-Dish.” These models were the first to recapitulate all three of the key pathological hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease and have made drug screenings faster and cheaper. Rudy is the director of the Genetics and Aging Research Unit as well as the director of the Henry and Allison McCance Center for Brain Health. Rudy is also co-Director of the Massachusetts General Institute for Neurodegenerative Disease at Massachusetts General Hospital and serves as the Joseph P. and Rose F. Kennedy Professor of Neurology at Harvard Medical School. Rudy has published more than 700 research papers and is one of the top 50 most cited neuroscientists in the world. He is author of “Decoding Darkness,” and a co-author of two books with Deepak Chopra, “Super Brain” and “The Healing Self.” Show notes: [00:03:18] Ken opens the interview mentioning that Rudy began playing the accordion when he was just seven years old. Ken goes on to ask Rudy about the time his father gave him a Jimmy Smith album and some advice. [00:05:51] Ken mentions that, in addition to Rudy's musical talents, he was also interested in science growing up. Ken asks about Rudy's participation in the Westinghouse Science Talent Search and what that experience was like. [00:07:09] Ken asks Rudy about growing up in Cranston, Road Island. [00:08:39] Rudy talks about how he ended up at the University of Rochester after high school. [00:09:51] Ken mentions that both Rudy's grandfather and father passed away at the age of 45. Ken asks Rudy if this played a role in his pursuit of a career in genetics research. [00:10:57] Rudy explains how he chose Harvard Medical School for his Ph.D. [00:12:47] Ken pivots to ask Rudy about his time working with Jim Gusella in the early 80's at Mass General, where they were the first to ever find a disease gene. Family studies at the time had shown that the Huntington's disease gene was linked to a polymorphic DNA marker. Rudy talks about this discovery and how the chromosomal localization of the Huntington's disease gene was the first step in using recombinant DNA technology to identify the primary genetic defect in this disorder. [00:16:07] Ken asks Rudy about his work in 1987, when he discovered the first Alzheimer's gene, recombinant DNA technology, which causes the production of amyloid. Ken goes on to explain that mutations in the APP gene can cause a rare form of early onset Alzheimer's. Rudy talks about the paper that came out in “Science” that detailed this discovery. [00:18:38] Rudy discusses his personal philosophy and approach to research. [00:19:43] Ken mentions that in Rudy's book, Decoding Darkness, he writes that few nightmares on Earth can compare to Alzheimer's disease. Ken asks Rudy to talk more about this book. [00:21:50] Ken explains that in the same way our physical capabilities will suffer some form of decline with age, it is also expected that we have some decline in memory and cognitive ability as we age as well. However, Ken goes on to say that when people begin to experience age-related memory lapses, it can lead to a lot of anxiety about their genetic predisposition to Alzheimer's. Ken asks Rudy to talk about the lifestyle factors that play into whether someone predisposed to develop Alzheimer's can stave off or avoid disease development. [00:26:09] Ken explains that aging appears to intensify when people stop challenging themselves with new things. Given this, Ken asks Rudy what his thoughts are on challenging our brains as they age to protect our cognitive abilities. [00:29:08] Ken asks Rudy about the principal advances in...

Today's Episode Dr. Raj talks with Dr. Rudy Tanzi about his work in Alzheimer's Disease research, his acronym SHIELD for evading its progression, and how his background as a musician has intersected with this work. Today's Guest Dr. Tanzi is the Vice-Chair of Neurology, Director of the Genetics and Aging Research Unit, Co-Director of the Henry and Allison McCance Center for Brain Health, and Co-Director of the MassGeneral Institute for Neurodegenerative Disease at Massachusetts General Hospital. He also serves as the Joseph P. and Rose F. Kennedy Professor of Neurology at Harvard Medical School. Dr. Tanzi received his BS (microbiology) and BA (history) at the University of Rochester in 1980 and his PhD (neurobiology) at Harvard Medical School in 1990. Dr. Tanzi co-discovered the first Alzheimer's disease (AD) gene, the amyloid precursor protein (APP) gene, and the two other early-onset familial AD genes, presenilin 1 and presenilin 2. As leader of the Cure Alzheimer's Fund Alzheimer's Genome Project, Dr. Tanzi identified several other AD genes, including CD33, the first AD gene shown to regulate neuroinflammation. He also discovered the Wilson's disease gene and other neurological disease genes. Dr. Tanzi's team was the first to use human stem cells to create three-dimensional neural-glial; cell culture organoids of AD, dubbed “Alzheimer's-in-a-Dish”. This model was the first to recapitulate all three key AD pathological hallmarks in vitro, and first to definitively show that amyloid plaques directly cause neurofibrillary tangles - and also made drug screening for AD faster and more cost-effective. Using this system, Dr. Tanzi has developed several novel therapies for AD including gamma secretase modulators targeting amyloid pathology and AMX0035, which was already successful in a clinical trial of ALS and now seeking FDA approval. Dr. Tanzi also discovered that beta-amyloid plays a functional role in the brain as an anti-microbial peptide, supporting a role for infection in AD pathology. Dr. Tanzi serves as Chair of the Cure Alzheimer's Fund Research Leadership Group and numerous advisory and editorial boards. He has been named to TIME magazine's list of TIME100 Most Influential People in the World. Dr. Tanzi is a New York Times bestselling author who has co-authored the books Decoding Darkness, and the bestsellers Super Brain, Super Genes, and The Healing Self with Dr. Deepak Chopra. Dr. Tanzi has hosted several shows on public television, regularly appears on television news programs, and has testified to Congress on both Alzheimer's disease and brain health. About Dr. Raj Dr Raj is a quadruple board certified physician and associate professor at the University of Southern California. He was a co-host on the TNT series Chasing the Cure with Ann Curry, a regular on the TV Show The Doctors for the past 7 seasons and has a weekly medical segment on ABC news Los Angeles.

英语知识|研究:吃超加工食品会导致认知能力下降Eating ultraprocessed foods for more than 20% of your dailycalorie intake every day could set you on the road to cognitive decline, a newstudy revealed.一项新研究发现,如果每日摄入的卡路里中超加工食品占比超过20%,就会导致你的认知能力下降。We all know eating ultraprocessed foods that make our liveseasier -- such as prepackaged soups, sauces, frozen pizza and ready-to-eatmeals -- isn't good for our health. Nor is gobbling up allthe pleasure foods that we love so much: hot dogs, sausages, burgers, frenchfries, sodas, cookies, cakes, candies, doughnuts and ice cream, to name just afew.我们都知道吃方便的超加工食品对身体没好处,比如即食汤、调味酱、冷冻披萨和熟食。那些我们很爱吃的带来快感的食品也不利于健康,比如热狗、香肠、汉堡、炸薯条、汽水、曲奇饼、蛋糕、糖果、甜甜圈、冰淇淋,这里就不一一列举了。Studies have found they can raise our risk of obesity, heart andcirculation problems, diabetes and cancer. They may even shorten our lives.研究发现,吃超加工食品会提高患肥胖、心脏和血液循环问题、糖尿病和癌症的风险,甚至可能缩短我们的寿命。Now, a new study has revealed eating more ultraprocessed foodsmay contribute to overall cognitive decline, including the areas of the braininvolved in executive functioning -- the ability to process information andmake decisions.如今,一项新研究揭示,吃更多超加工食品可能会导致认知能力全面下降,包括对负责执行功能(处理信息和做决定)的大脑区域造成负面影响。In fact, men and women who ate the most ultraprocessed foods hada 28% faster rate of global cognitive decline and a 25% faster rate ofexecutive function decline compared with people who ate the least amount ofoverly processed food, the study found.事实上,摄入最多超加工食品的男性和女性整体认知能力和执行功能的下降速度比摄入最少超加工食品的人分别快28%和25%。"While in need of further study and replication, the newresults are quite compelling and emphasize the critical role for propernutrition in preserving and promoting brain health and reducing risk for braindiseases as we get older," said Rudy Tanzi, professor of neurology atHarvard Medical School and director of the genetics and aging research unit atMassachusetts General Hospital in Boston. He was not involved in the study.没有参与该研究的哈佛医学院神经学教授、位于波士顿的麻省总医院遗传学和衰老研究中心主任鲁迪·坦齐称:“尽管还需要进一步研究和再试验,但是新研究结果相当有说服力,并且强调了适当的营养对于保持和增进大脑健康以及降低大脑老化疾病风险的关键作用。”Tanzi, who has written about ultraprocessed foods in his book"The Healing Self: A Revolutionary New Plan to Supercharge Your Immunityand Stay Well for Life," said the key problem with ultraprocessed foods isthat "they are usually very high in sugar, salt and fat, all of whichpromote systemic inflammation, perhaps the most major threat tohealthy aging in the body and brain.坦齐曾在他的著作《自我修复:快速增强免疫力和保持终身健康的革命性新计划》中写过超加工食品,并指出超加工食品的关键问题在于“它们通常糖、盐和脂肪含量都很高,所有这些都会加剧全身炎症,也许对于身体和大脑的健康老化是最大的威胁。”"Meanwhile, since they are convenient as a quick meal, theyalso replace eating food that is high in plant fiber that is important formaintaining the health and balance of the trillions of bacteria in your gutmicrobiome," he added, "which is particularly important for brainhealth and reducing risk of age-related brain diseases like Alzheimer'sdisease."他补充道:“与此同时,因为超加工食品都是很方便的快餐,所以取代了富含植物纤维的食物,后者对于保持肠道菌群中数万亿细菌的健康和平衡很重要,而这对于保持大脑健康和降低患阿尔茨海默症等与年龄相关的脑部疾病的风险尤为重要。”The study, presented on August 1 at the 2022 Alzheimer'sAssociation International Conference in San Diego, followed over 10,000Brazilians for up to 10 years. Just over half of the study participants werewomen, white or college educated, while the average age was 51.8月1日在圣地亚哥举行的2022老年痴呆症协会国际会议上展示的这一研究在十年间跟踪调查了1万多名巴西人。刚过半数的研究参与者为女性,这些女性是白人或接受过大学教育,平均年龄为51岁。Cognitive testing, which included immediate and delayed wordrecall, word recognition and verbal fluency were performed at the beginning andend of the study, and participants were asked about their diet.该研究在开头和结尾开展了认知测试,包括即时和延时词语回忆、词语识别和口头表达流利度,并询问了参与者的饮食习惯。"In Brazil, ultraprocessed foods make up 25% to 30% oftotal calorie intake. We have McDonald's, Burger King and we eat a lot ofchocolate and white bread. It's not very different, unfortunately, from manyother Western countries," said coauthor Dr. Claudia Suemoto, an assistantprofessor in the division of geriatrics at the University of So Paulo MedicalSchool.该研究的合著者、圣保罗大学医学院老年病学系助理教授克劳迪娅·末元博士称:“超加工食品在巴西人摄入的卡路里总量中占了25%到30%。在巴西,人们吃麦当劳、汉堡王的快餐,还吃很多巧克力和白面包。不幸的是,许多其他西方国家的饮食也大同小异。”"Fifty-eight percent of the calories consumed by UnitedStates citizens, 56.8% of the calories consumed by British citizens, and 48% ofthe calories consumed by Canadians come from ultraprocessed foods," Suemotosaid.末元教授指出:“超加工食品在美国人、英国人和加拿大人摄入的卡路里总量中分别占据了58%、56.8%和48%。”Ultraprocessed foods are defined as "industrialformulations of food substances (oils, fats, sugars, starch, and proteinisolates) that contain little or no whole foods and typically include flavorings,colorings, emulsifiers, and other chemical additives," according to thestudy.该研究对超加工食品的定义是“食物成分(油、脂肪、糖、淀粉、分离蛋白)的工业配方,其中几乎不含全天然食物,通常包括调味料、色素、乳化剂和其他化学添加剂”。"People who consumed more than 20% of daily calories fromprocessed foods had a 28% faster decline in global cognition and a 25% fasterdecline in executive functioning compared to people who ate less than20%," said study coauthor Natalia Gonalves, a researcher in the departmentof pathology at the University of So Paulo Medical School.研究的另一位合著者、圣保罗大学医学院病理学系研究员娜塔莉亚·贡萨尔维斯称:“和加工食品摄入量不到每日摄入卡路里总量20%的人相比,每日摄入加工食品超过卡路里总量20%的人整体认知能力和执行功能的衰退速度分别要加快28%和25%。”For a person who eats 2,000 calories a day, 20% would equal 400or more calories -- for comparison, a small order of fries and regular cheeseburgerfrom McDonalds contains a total of 530 calories.对于一个每日摄入2000卡路里的人而言,20%相当于至少400卡路里。作为对照,麦当劳的一小份薯条和中等大小的芝士汉堡总热量达530卡路里。Those in the study who ate the most ultraprocessed foods were"more likely to be younger, women, White, had higher education and income,and were more likely to have never smoked, and less likely to be currentalcohol consumers," the study found.研究发现,摄入最多超加工食品的研究参与者“更多的是年轻人、女性、白人、受过高等教育者、高收入者、从不抽烟者,而且不太可能有饮酒的习惯”。"People need to know they should cook more and preparetheir own food from scratch. I know. We say we don't have time but it really doesn't takethat much time," Suemoto said.末元教授称:“人们要知道,自己应该多下厨做饭,从头开始烹饪。我知道,大家都说自己很忙,但是做饭其实没那么费时间。”"And it's worth it because you're going to protect yourheart and guard your brain from dementia or Alzheimer's disease," sheadded. "That's the take-home message: Stop buying things that aresuperprocessed."她补充道:“而且这么做很值得,因为你是在保护你的心脏,防止大脑患痴呆症或阿尔茨海默症。这就是研究的终极结论:不要买超加工食品。”编辑:丹妮英文来源:美国有线电视新闻网gobble英[ˈgɒbl];美[ˈgɑbl]v. 狼吞虎咽地吃inflammation英[ˌɪnfləˈmeɪʃn];美[ˌɪnfləˈmeʃən]v. 使做好准备from scratch英[skrætʃ];美[skrætʃ]从头做起,从零开始

Ira Pastor Comments: On this episode we are going to journey back to the topic of Alzheimer’s disease (AD), projected to affect over a 100 million people worldwide by mid century. Dr. Rudolph Tanzi: Dr. Rudolph Tanzi is the Joseph P. and Rose F. Kennedy Professor of Neurology at Harvard University, Vice-Chair of Neurology, Director of the Genetics and Aging Research Unit, and Co-Director of the Henry and Allison McCance Center for Brain Health at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH), and has been investigating the genetics of neurological disease since the 1980s when he participated in the first study that used genetic markers to find a disease gene for Huntington's disease. In 1990, Dr. Tanzi received his Ph.D. in neurobiology at Harvard Medical School, where his doctoral thesis was on the discovery and isolation of the first Alzheimer's disease gene - the amyloid precursor protein (APP), published in 1987 in Science. Dr. Tanzi's work in Alzheimer's disease research: Dr Tanzi co-discovered all three familial early-onset Alzheimer's disease (FAD) genes and several other neurological disease genes including those responsible for Wilson’s disease. Dr Tanzi also serves as Chair of the Cure Alzheimer's Fund Research Leadership Group and leader of the Cure Alzheimer's Fund Alzheimer’s Genome Project, where he has carried out multiple genome wide association studies (GWAS) of thousands of Alzheimer’s families leading to the identification of novel AD candidate genes, including CD33, and ADAM10 genes. Dr Tanzi has also worked on the role of zinc and copper in AD, on gamma secretase modulators for the prevention and treatment of Alzheimer's, and on human stem cells to create an “Alzheimer’s-in-a-Dish”, three-dimensional neural culture system, that was the first to recapitulate both pathological hallmarks of Alzheimer’s disease. Dr. Tanzi has published over 500 scientific papers, including the top three most cited papers in the field of Alzheimer's disease research. Dr. Tanzi also co-authored the books "Decoding Darkness: The Search the Genetic Causes of Alzheimer's Disease", the New York Times Best Selling book “Super Brain: Unleashing the Explosive Power of Your Mind to Maximize Health, Happiness, and Spiritual Well-Being”, "Super Genes: Unlock the Astonishing Power of Your DNA for Optimum Health and Well-Being", and "The Healing Self: A Revolutionary New Plan to Supercharge Your Immunity and Stay Well for Life" with Deepak Chopra.

TODAY'S GUEST: Neal Barnard, M.D., F.A.C.C., is an adjunct associate professor of medicine at the George Washington University School of Medicine and Health Sciences in Washington, D.C., president of the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine, and founder of Barnard Medical Center. Dr. Barnard is a fellow of the American College of Cardiology, the 2016 recipient of the American College of Lifestyle Medicine's Trailblazer Award, and has led numerous research studies investigating the effects of diet on diabetes, body weight, and chronic pain, including a groundbreaking study of dietary interventions in type 2 diabetes, funded by the National Institutes of Health. Dr. Barnard has authored more than 70 scientific publications as well as 18 books, including the New York Times best-sellers Power Foods for the Brain, 21-Day Weight Loss Kickstart, and the USA Today best-seller Dr. Barnard's Program for Reversing Diabetes. As president of the Physicians Committee, Dr. Barnard leads programs advocating for preventive medicine, good nutrition, and higher ethical standards in research. He hosts four PBS television programs on nutrition and health and is frequently called on by news programs to discuss issues related to nutrition and research. Originally from Fargo, N.D., Dr. Barnard received his medical degree from the George Washington University School of Medicine and completed his residency at the same institution. He practiced at St. Vincent's Hospital in New York before returning to Washington to found the Physicians Committee. In 2015, Dr. Barnard founded the nonprofit Barnard Medical Center, which opened in January 2016, in Washington, D.C. Barnard Medical's board-certified physicians, nurse practitioners, and registered dietitians provide complete primary care. Barnard Medical also helps patients tackle the causes of illness, with extra attention on improving health through prevention and nutrition. Barnard Medical takes advantage of years of research conducted by the Physicians Committee research team and other researchers, showing how a new approach to medicine and nutrition could help prevent and reverse serious health problems, such as obesity, diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure, elevated cholesterol, migraines, and arthritis. Barnard Medical's focus on nutrition includes comprehensive nutrition counseling with registered dietitians and group cooking classes. As a child in Fargo, North Dakota, Barnard studied piano, cello, and guitar, and took his love of music with him to Washington, DC, where he attended medical school while establishing himself in the DC music scene. Barnard started composing and recording songs in the 80s, and he played music professionally throughout his medical school and residency. With a penchant for the avant-garde, Neal constantly writes songs that defy any genre categorization. He chooses unconventional time meters as well, in order to “tilt the song ever so slightly and give you that little jolt between the ears,” as he puts it. Be sure to check out the debut CarbonWorks CD - out today on all digital music sites! More about Neal Barnard CarbonWorks music will surprise those who know Barnard as the physician who has authored more than 70 scientific publications and 18 books, whose NIH-funded research revolutionized the nutritional treatment of diabetes, and who is a recognized authority on science and health. As founder of the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine and a faculty member at the George Washington University School of Medicine, the trailblazing physician has dramatically influenced U.S. nutrition policies, arm-wrestled with the food industry, and worked to replace the use of animals in education and research with kinder methods. In keeping with the tradition of luminaries like Albert Einstein, who played violin with symphony orchestras and Harvard researcher Rudy Tanzi, who played keyboards with Aerosmith, Barnard's scientific innovations are complemented by his explorations in music. As a way of bridging together these two worlds, Barnard gives talks about his findings on how music profoundly affects the brain and “why it beats heroin and Velveeta!” For more info: CarbonWorksMusic.com Follow Barnard Medical Center on Facebook @BarnardMedical.

Today we’re talking about the incredible influence that we have to shape our brains, and even our genes! Did you know that the lifestyle choices that we make can actually optimize how our genes and brains behave, allowing us to reach a state of health and fulfillment undreamed of even a decade ago. Our guest is Harvard Neuroscientist Dr. Rudy Tanzi. Dr. Tanzi is a professor of Neurology at Harvard and Director of the genetics and aging research unit at Mass General Hospital. He is one of the world's foremost experts on the causes of Alzheimer’s. and was name to TIME magazine’s 100 most influential people in the world. Dr Tanzi collaborated with physician and mind-body expert Deepak Chopra and co-authored two books - Super Brain and Super Genes, both of which absolutely blew open my mind! Their first book, Super Brain, is a manual for relating to our brain in a new way. It shows us how to use our brain as a gateway for achieving health, happiness, and spiritual growth. And then in their follow up Super Genes - they say that our experiences actually sculpt our genes! Crazy, right?! They say, you will always have the genes you were born with, but genes are dynamic, responding to everything we think, say, and do. So, we are the user and controller of our genes, the author of our biological story. And our everyday lifestyle and habits, whether good or bad, are changing our gene activity. Chopra and Tanzi propose, that through a person’s increased self-awareness and conscious intention, the brain and genes can be taught to reach far beyond their present limitations. They say the brain and genes are capable of incredible healing and constant reshaping. And Through a new relationship with both you can achieve, what they call, radical well-being.

For the first time, researchers have been able to replicate Alzheimer's outside of the brain – they're calling it "Alzheimer's in a Dish." This advancement will allow scientists and doctors to evaluate their experimental treatments and techniques that – until now – would have required human subjects for testing. This could speed up the research process and help us find a way to stop Alzheimer's faster. We're thrilled to have the head of that groundbreaking team, Dr. Rudolph E. Tanzi of Boston's Massachusetts General Hospital, on this Alzheimer's Talks.Support the show (https://www.usagainstalzheimers.org/ways-donate)
We will not be able to find a cure for Alzheimer's, until we understand what causes this horrible disease.
