A physician ’s infertility story
How ironic the way a young woman’s thoughts and attitudes change. We spend so many years— decades, perhaps— preoccupied by controlling our cycles. For some, it is about cycle control. For others, it is to avoid pregnancy because we are not yet ready or do not want to have a family. In thoseRead more …A physician’s infertility story originally appeared inKevinMD.com.

Impromptu Questions on the SEC ’s Climate Risk Proposal, Part 5
C. Wallace DeWittToday, let ’s wrap up our week of impromptu questions on the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (SEC) climate riskrule proposal with a parade of horribles and a look forward to what might ensue if the SEC continues to pursue rulemakings of this sort.Did anyone ask other political activists?Is there a principled basis on which to distinguish valid scientific concerns over global warming from any of the panoply of troubles that beset mankind? Are we —and is the SEC—prepared to promulgate rules to address the concerns of “all whom the flood did, and fire shall o ’erthrow, / All wh...

The hidden costs of fully covered infertility treatment  
After years of searching for answers to my pain, I was finally diagnosed with endometriosis during my second year of medical school. However, the joy of finally having a diagnosis quickly became overshadowed by the knowledge that I was now a part of the 1 in 4 female physicians who suffer from infertility.

Excitable Nanoparticles Destroy Endometriosis Lesions
Researchers at Oregon State University developed a nanoparticle system that can aid with the removal of endometrial lesions in a minimally invasive fashion. In endometriosis, endometrial tissue grows outside of the uterus, causing pain and affecting fertility. Surgery to remove these lesions is often unsuccessful and repeat surgeries are often required. The research team’s nanoparticle technology can aid in minimally invasively destroying such lesions. The iron oxide nanoparticles can be delivered intravenously and are targeted to accumulate in endometrial lesions, and also handily act as an MRI contrast agent. By ap...

Fight Aging! Newsletter, April 18th 2022
In conclusion, our results suggest that SAH extends lifespan by inducing MetR or mimicking its downstream effects. Since the lifespan-extending effects of SAH are conserved in yeast and nematodes, and MetR extends the lifespan of many species, exposure to SAH is expected to have multiple benefits across evolutionary boundaries. Our findings offer the enticing possibility that in humans the benefits of a MetR diet can be achieved by promoting Met reduction with SAH. The use of endogenous metabolites, such as SAH, is considered safer than drugs and other substances, suggesting that it may be one of the most feasible ways to ...

Dopaminergenic Neurons Regulate Longevity in Flies
An interesting commentary here notes the extended life span in flies that results from the upregulation of the Mask gene in dopaminergenic neurons only. This is accompanied by extended reproductive life span as well, indicating an overall improvement in health along with extended life. In short-lived species there are many examples of this sort of single gene alteration that results in overall improvement, demonstrating that the processes of evolution do not optimize for life span. Should we expect to find analogous single gene alterations in humans? That question is complicated by the fact that long-lived species such as ...

Evidence for a Mechanism that Operates in Oocytes to Reduce Mitochondrial DNA Mutation Rate
Researchers here show that, in primates, oocyte cells are more protected from mutations to mitochondrial DNA in later life. This suggests that one or more mechanisms are operating to produce this outcome. Given that mitochondrial DNA mutations are implicated in age-related loss of mitochondrial function and other aspects of aging, the existence of protective mechanisms is potentially interesting. It is not as interesting as the ability to repair or replace damaged mitochondrial DNA, of course. Mechanisms that can only produce sizable differences by operating over long periods of time are a poor foundation upon which to bui...

Microfluidic Chip Collects Healthy Sperm
A team at Florida Atlantic University created a microfluidic chip that can sort and collect healthy sperm cells for fertility procedures. The chip takes advantage of the fact that healthy sperm will naturally swim against cervical mucus flows and uses fluid flow to guide the cells to swim into a collection chamber. The simple approach ensures that the collected cells are intact and motile, unlike currently used centrifugation techniques, which can take a long time, with multiple steps, and which can actually damage sperm cells in the process. Sperm cells have a perilous journey before they can fertilize the egg, with a ...

Fight Aging! Newsletter, March 28th 2022
In conclusion, we summarized here evidence for a novel therapeutic approach to exploit the incredible ability of mitochondria to engage multifaceted neuroprotective stress response triggered by partial complex I inhibition. This approach promises relief for multiple human conditions, and to promote healthy aging to delay the onset of neurogenerative diseases, AD in particular, where age is the greatest risk factor. There is a mounting body of evidence generated in model organisms and humans in support of the safety of chronic application of complex I inhibitors. However, a better understanding of the molecular mechanisms i...
