In this episode of the Epigenetics Podcast, we talked with Mitinori Saitou from Kyoto University about his work on germ cell development, focusing on proteins like BLIMP1 and PRDM14, reprogramming iPSCs, and his vision to address infertility and genetic disorders through epigenetic insights. To start our discussion, Dr. Saitou shares the foundation of his research, which centers on the mechanisms of germ cell development across various species, including mice, non-human primates, and humans. He provides insight into his early work examining the roles of two key proteins: BLIMP1 and PRDM14. These proteins are essential for germline specification in mammals, and their functions are unveiled through detailed exploration of knockout models. In particular, Dr. Saitou elucidates the critical events in germ cell specification, highlighting how disruptions to the functions of these proteins lead to significant impairments in development. As the conversation deepens, we discuss Dr. Saitou's groundbreaking advances in human-induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). He elaborates on the processes involved in reprogramming these cells to form primordial germ cell-like cells, emphasizing the significance of understanding various cellular contexts and transcriptional regulation. Dr. Saitou then details how overexpression of certain factors in embryonic stem cells can induce these germline characteristics, presenting the promise of innovation in regenerative medicine and reproductive biology. We end our talk with the exploration of chromatin remodeling that occurs during germ cell development, including fascinating details about DNA and histone modification dynamics. Dr. Saitou articulates how the epigenetic landscape shifts during the transition from pluripotent states to germ cell specification, providing a detailed comparison between mouse and human systems. This highlights the complexity of gene regulation and the importance of specific epigenetic markers in establishing and maintaining cellular identity.   References Yamaji, M., Seki, Y., Kurimoto, K. et al.

“In the Grand Scheme of things, “I” is not important.” Born and raised in Japan, Yujiro Seki discovered his passion for film-making when he was in high school. Through making his first feature film, Sokonashi Deka (The Enigmatic Detective), he became enamored with the imaginative possibilities of cinema and vowed to master the art through study in the United States. Seki earned a BA in Film from the University of California, Berkeley, and completed a short film, Sashimi Taco, for his senior, honors thesis. Following his graduation, Seki moved to Los Angeles to work as a director of the video department for Intermarket Design, and as a film instructor at Montecito Fine Arts College of Design. After attaining permanent U.S. residency, Seki began studying full-time in the Cinematography program at UCLA Extension. Upon graduating from that program, he embarked on the journey of making his feature documentary project, “Carving the Divine: Buddhist Sculptors of Japan.”Carving the Divine has become the official selection for 29 film festivals, showing a total of 22 countries, and won awards at 12 festivals worldwide, such as winning the Best Director Award for a Foreign Language Documentary at World Cinema Milan and premiering at the famous Raindance Film Festival in London.Carving the Divine is a documentary film that offers a rare look into a 1400-year-old Buddhist woodcarving tradition and the practitioners struggling to preserve its legacy in a rapidly changing Japan.Along with the version with English subtitles, we have released versions with Spanish, French, Portuguese, Italian, German, Dutch, and Hebrew subtitles to start with.

You should say – when you had it – where you had it – what kind of meal it was – and explain why it was unusual. I'd like to talk about a rather extraordinary meal I had during my trip to Japan last year. It was an unforgettable experience that took place in a traditional Japanese inn located in the quaint town of Takayama. The meal itself was a traditional Kaiseki dinner, which is a multi-course dining experience renowned for its artistic presentation and use of seasonal ingredients. The meal began with a series of beautifully arranged appetisers, which included some familiar items like sashimi and tempura. But as the courses progressed, I was introduced to a variety of uncommon dishes. One of the most peculiar delicacies was Hoba Miso, a regional specialty where miso paste, wild mushrooms, and vegetables were cooked over a magnolia leaf. The earthy aroma and rich flavours were unlike anything I had tasted before. Furthermore, the chef proudly served a platter which I believe was called Seki-saba, a local delicacy of fermented mackerel. While its intense pungent smell might have deterred some, I decided to embrace the experience fully. To my surprise, the taste was surprisingly complex and utterly delightful. Another dish that added to the uniqueness of the meal was Kuro-udon, which was black udon noodles made with bamboo charcoal. The dramatic colour contrast against the traditional white tableware was visually striking and added an artistic element to the dining experience. What truly made this meal unusual was the combination of the serene surroundings, the artistic presentation, and the rare ingredients. I unfortunately don't think I'll have an experience like this again anytime soon. Trying these unfamiliar and rare dishes opened my eyes to the vast diversity of Japanese cuisine and its strong connection to regional traditions and culture.

Hear about travel to Hikone and Gifu in Central Japan as the Amateur Traveler talks to Miyuki Seguchi from the Japan Experts Podcast about he home region of Japan where she is a tour guide. Why should you visit Central Japan? Miyuki says, "A lot of travelers from North America or the West when they travel to Japan, they will stay in Japan for two to three weeks, and they usually travel from the eastern part of Japan to the western part of Japan or vice versa, but most of them do not stop off at the central region especially the southern part of Gifu to the eastern part of Shiga. So this part of Japan is simply not as well known as major tourist destinations, but there are a lot of places to visit, and these places are usually less busy and easy to access by public transport. If you want to explore some unique local areas with hidden gems that give you a great idea of authentic local life." The journey begins with a visit to Hikone, a city located in the Chubu region, home to the well-preserved Hikone Castle, one of Japan's five national treasure castles. Visitors can also enjoy a boat ride on the moat surrounding the castle and explore the beautiful gardens. Additionally, Miyuki recommends a boat trip to Chikubu Island on Lake Biwa to experience the coexistence of Shinto and Buddhism. Next, the itinerary takes travelers to Sekigahara, a town known for the historic Battle of Sekigahara which changed Japan's history. Here, they can visit the Battlefield Memorial Museum to learn about the battle. Moving west, the tour arrives in Gifu City, the largest city in Gifu Prefecture. A unique highlight here is the Ukai Cormorant Fishing, a tradition dating back over 1,300 years. This fishing method involves trained cormorant birds catching fish. The fishermen have an honorary position delivering fish to the Japanese imperial family. The Nagaragawa Ukai is famous for preserving this tradition, and visitors can experience it between May and October. There's also the opportunity to visit the Ukai Cormorant Fishing Museum for deeper insights into this cultural practice. Go out at night on a boat to watch this spectacle. For accommodations, staying in a traditional ryokan is recommended, where you can try the high-quality multi-course Japanese meal called kaiseki ryori. Don't miss the chance to visit a hot spring or onsen. The next day, explore the Kawaramachi district, a historic area with traditional merchant houses. The Nagaragawa River, one of Japan's cleanest rivers, has contributed to the development of craft-making, particularly Japanese paper called washi. Climb Mt. Kinka to get a panoramic view of the region, including the Japan Alps and the city of Nagoya. The summit can be reached by cable car or a one-hour hike. In the north of Gifu, you can explore Mino and Seki cities. Seki is renowned for its sword and knife-making tradition, offering the chance to witness skilled craftsmanship. Mino is also famous for its washi paper production, and you can visit the Washinary shop for various washi products. Overall, Gifu Prefecture offers a blend of traditional culture, scenic beauty, and unique experiences. If you travel between Tokyo and Kyoto, you will pass right by. show notes - https://amateurtraveler.com/travel-to-hikone-and-gifu-japan/

The spring and early summer is a common time for overuse injuries and other joint pain. Shoulder pain being one of the most common. It's that nagging ache in your shoulder that refuses to let up. Maybe it comes and goes, maybe it's a constant throb, but either way, it's starting to interfere with your daily life. Now you're here, asking the important questions: "Why do my shoulders hurt?" "What are the causes of shoulder pain?" and crucially, "What can I do about shoulder pain?" The good news is, you're not alone. Shoulder pain affects millions of people worldwide, making it a public health concern. A study in the Journal of Physical Therapy Science indicates that the prevalence of shoulder pain in the general population could be up to 66.7%.Takahashi, N., Aoba, Y., Shiozawa, H., & Aizawa, J. (2019). Effect of posture on shoulder muscle activity during smartphone use. Ergonomics, 62(10), 1316-1324. And just like you, many people are searching for answers. Hopefully, by the end of this article, you'll have found most of those answers. If not, leave a comment or post your question. The Complex Design of the Shoulder: A Blessing and a Curse Your shoulder isn't just a singular entity. It's a complicated system, a mechanical marvel, that has been designed for an impressive range of motion. The shoulder is made up of three bones - the clavicle (collarbone), the scapula (shoulder blade), and the humerus (upper arm bone). These bones work together through four distinct joints, namely the glenohumeral, acromioclavicular, sternoclavicular, and the scapulothoracic joints.Ackland, D. C., Pak, P., Richardson, M., & Pandy, M. G. (2008). Moment arms of the muscles crossing the anatomical shoulder. Journal of Anatomy, 213(4), 383-390. Surrounding these bones and joints is a network of muscles, tendons, and ligaments. This includes the rotator cuff, which comprises four key muscles providing stability to the shoulder joint, and the deltoid muscle, which powers the lifting of the arm.Lewis, J. S. (2016). Rotator cuff tendinopathy: a model for the continuum of pathology and related management. British Journal of Sports Medicine, 50(19), 1187-1191. This complex structure enables your shoulder to perform a myriad of tasks every day. From reaching for a can on the top shelf, to throwing a ball, or even brushing your hair, few body parts offer such diversity of movement. However, this benefit comes at a cost. This inherent mobility of the shoulder makes it susceptible to a range of injuries and conditions. Overuse, trauma, or strain can cause a variety of shoulder conditions, including rotator cuff tears, impingement, and frozen shoulder. The intensive use of the shoulder in sports, especially those requiring repetitive overhead movements, further raises the risk of injuries.Yang, J. L., Chang, C. W., Chen, S. Y., Wang, S. F., & Lin, J. J. (2017). Mobilization techniques in subjects with frozen shoulder syndrome: randomized multiple-treatment trial. Physical Therapy, 97(10), 1003-1013. While our shoulder's dynamic capability is a boon for performing diverse movements, it also increases the risk of injury and pain. In the following sections, we will delve into how everyday habits, such as posture, can further affect your shoulder health. The Common Causes of Shoulder Pain Understanding the causes of shoulder pain isn't always straightforward. While injuries and conditions related to the shoulder anatomy we've discussed are prevalent, there are other potential causes to consider. Age-related wear and tear is a common cause. With time, the cartilage in our shoulders naturally deteriorates, leading to conditions like osteoarthritis.
