Podcasts about zygotes

When does life begin? In this episode of Stanford Legal, co-hosts Rich Ford and Pam Karlan dig into the recent decision by the Alabama Supreme Court that has sent shockwaves through the fertility treatment community. The ruling, which considers frozen embryos as children under state law, has wide-ranging implications for in vitro fertilization (IVF) practices. Bioethics and law expert Hank Greely joins the discussion, providing insights into the background of the case, its legal implications, and the potential ramifications for IVF clinics and patients in Alabama—and throughout the country. The conversation highlights the intersection of law, medicine, and ethics, revealing the complex challenges surrounding embryo rights and reproductive freedoms.Connect:Episode Transcripts >>> Stanford Legal Podcast WebsiteStanford Legal Podcast >>> LinkedIn PageRich Ford >>>  Twitter/XPam Karlan >>> Stanford Law School PageStanford Law School >>> Twitter/XStanford  Law Magazine >>> Twitter/XLinks:Hank Greely >>> Stanford Law School Page | Twitter/X(00:00:00) Chapter 1: Introduction & The Alabama Supreme Court RulingHank Greely, discussing the recent Alabama Supreme Court decision regarding frozen embryos.

Link to bioRxiv paper: http://biorxiv.org/cgi/content/short/2023.08.04.552031v1?rss=1 Authors: Lang, C. F., Anneken, A., Munro, E. Abstract: The PAR polarity network is a paradigmatic example of how systems of mutually antagonism interactions among peripheral membrane binding proteins allow them to form and maintain complementary polar domains in response to a transient polarizing cue. The oligomeric scaffolding protein PAR-3 has emerged as a keystone member of the PAR network in many different contexts. In early C. elegans embryos, PAR-3 is required for all other PAR asymmetries, and it can form stable unipolar asymmetries when its known inhibitors are absent and all other members of the PAR network are cytoplasmic or spatially uniform on the membrane. But how PAR-3 forms stable unipolar asymmetries absent mutual antagonism is unknown. Here we combine single particle analysis with quantitative modeling and experimental manipulations to determine how the dynamics of PAR-3 membrane binding, oligomerization and dissociation allow PAR-3 to maintain stable asymmetries in the one cell C. elegans embryo. We find that two forms of positive feedback contribute to sustaining PAR-3 asymmetries: First, a sharp size-dependent decrease in oligomer dissociation rates makes the effective dissociation rate of PAR-3 decrease sharply with its membrane density. Second, membrane-bound PAR-3 promotes additional binding of PAR-3 to the membrane through a mechanism that requires the presence of anterior polarity proteins CDC-42, PAR-6 and PKC-3. Through a combination of modeling and quantitative measurements, we show that these two feedback loops are sufficient to dynamically stabilize asymmetries of the magnitude observed in polarized C. elegans zygotes. These results establish a dynamic basis for stabilizing monopolar PAR-3 asymmetries; they underscore a crucial role for the oligomerization and add to the growing body of evidence that point to a central role for oligomerization of peripheral membrane proteins in the establishment and maintenance of cell polarity.

Link to bioRxiv paper: http://biorxiv.org/cgi/content/short/2023.03.21.533625v1?rss=1 Authors: Rosfelter, A., de Labbey, G., Chenevert, J., Dumollard, R., Schaub, S., Machaty, Z., Besnardeau, L., Hebras, C., Turlier, H., Burgess, D., mcdougall, a. Abstract: Although it has been studied for more than a century, the question of how one cell divides into two equal parts is still not fully resolved. Zygotes have provided much of the mechanistic insight into how the mitotic apparatus finds the center of the cell since the centrally-located mitotic apparatus is created from a large sperm aster that forms at the cortex and thus far from the zygote center. Here we show that in ascidians, the sperm aster extends throughout the cytoplasm during interphase yet remains located near the cortex and does not migrate towards the zygote center. It is only at mitotic entry, when the sperm aster has duplicated and the mitotic apparatus is being assembled, that most of the migration and centration occurs. This temporal pattern of centration behavior is mirrored by primate zygotes (including human). The current mechanisms of aster centration include cytoplasmic pulling that scale with microtubule (MT) length, MT pushing against the proximal cortex or MT-based cortical pulling. However, it is not yet known whether and how these 3 mechanisms are coordinated to prevent aster migration during interphase and trigger migration at mitotic entry. By monitoring quantitatively all three mechanisms (cytoplasmic pulling, pushing and cortical pulling) we have discovered that cortical pulling is switched off as the zygote enters mitosis while both cytoplasmic pulling and proximal cortical pushing remain active. Physical simulations could recapitulate both the static and migratory aspects of sperm aster and mitotic apparatus behavior. We therefore surmise that the reduction in cortical pulling at mitotic entry represents a switch that allows proximal cortical pushing forces and cytoplasmic pulling forces to center the nascent mitotic apparatus.

I attended a night of music on Friday Feb 19. First I went to Yellow Cab Tavern for SKRT, the Zygotes, and Manray. The Zygotes and Manray were both releasing new music to the packed all ages show. Then I headed to Blind Bobs for the bands Gay Black Republicans, the Involuntarys, Duderus, and Grand Mammoth. On Sat Feb 20, the crew went to the 2016 Independent Creators Expo and Film Festival at the Crowne Plaza in Downtown dayton. We recorded content to be released later, and we also released an episode of Epic and the Beard. This one will be called Izzy and the Beard After the Independent Creators Expo, I went to W.O. Wrights in Fairborn, Ohio for the Violent Kind, Swimming With Sharks, Good English, and Nightbeast Izzy Rock and Mark DaGrossa recorded this two part episode at the Montessori School of Dayton for the 2016 Dayton Brew HaHa. "The Dayton Brew Ha-Ha is an annual fundraiser for the Montessori School of Dayton. The event started in 2011 and raises funds for the school?s capital improvement fund. Although each year has seen exponential growth, we are committed to maintaining the event as a premier boutique beer tasting, where residents of our community can come to mingle, try regional and local beers, and learn more about the school and about craft beer. Our beers have always had a regional focus. Previous iterations have seen offerings from the Great Lake States, as well as a Michigan vs. Ohio showdown (2014) and Daytonâ??s first All Ohio tasting (2015). In 2016, they returned to their Midwestern roots, showcasing the best our region has to offer."

Background: In mammals the parental genomes are epigenetically reprogrammed after fertilization. This reprogramming includes a rapid demethylation of the paternal (sperm-derived) chromosomes prior to DNA replication in zygotes. Such active DNA demethylation in the zygote has been documented for several mammalian species, including mouse, rat, pig, human and cow, but questioned to occur in rabbit. Results: When comparing immunohistochemical patterns of antibodies against 5-methyl-cytosine, H3K4me3 and H3K9me2 modifications we observe similar pronuclear distribution and dynamics in mouse, bovine and rabbit zygotes. In rabbit DNA demethylation of the paternal chromosomes occurs at slightly advanced pronuclear stages. We also show that the rabbit oocyte rapidly demethylates DNA of donor fibroblast after nuclear transfer. Conclusion: Our data reveal that major events of epigenetic reprogramming during pronuclear maturation, including mechanisms of active DNA demethylation, are apparently conserved among mammalian species.
