Ep 61The Prerequisite Problem in the A&P Course | Episode 61

Host Kevin Patton discusses issues caused by our expectations of anatomy & physiology course prerequisites and answers the question: which prerequisites work best? Recent reports of a bone-marrow recipient with donor DNA in his semen prompts a brief review of what happened. Wi-Fi fields can produce biological effects.

Bone Marrow Genome in Transplant Recipients 7 minutes Recently, the case of a bone marrow transplant recipient made the rounds. Reports mentioned that his semen contained only DNA from his donor, with none of his own DNA, which sounds weird—and perhaps not really possible. We explore what really happened—and how we might use this story to teach A&P. Thanks to Leslie Walker for the tip! After bone marrow transplant, man's semen contains only donor's DNA—His strange situation could affect the future of forensic science.

Ep 58Flashcards: Hidden Powers | Episode 58

If you think you know flashcards, think again. Host Kevin Patton outlines the learning science behind flashcards, then shows how they can go way beyond simple memorization in the first of a multipart series on the hidden powers of flashcards.

Memorization has gotten a bad rap recently. Lots of students, and even some educators, say that being able to reason is more important than knowing facts; and besides, why bother committing things to memory when you've got Google? My response to this - after I've finished inwardly groaning - is that of course reasoning is important, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't know facts as well. It's not like you have to choose between one or the other. Besides, facts give you a foundation on which to reason about things.

Anatomy & Physiology Society theAPprofessor.org/haps 3 | Summary of the Discovery 2 minutes 2019-10-07: The Nobel Assembly at Karolinska Institutet has today decided to award the 2019 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine jointly to William G. Kaelin Jr., Sir Peter J. Ratcliffe, and Gregg L. Semenza for their discoveries of how cells sense and adapt to oxygen availability. They identified molecular machinery that regulates the activity of genes in response to varying levels of oxygen. 4 | Oxygen at Center Stage 1 minute During evolution, mechanisms developed to ensure a sufficient supply of oxygen to tissues and cells. 5 | HIF Enters the Scene 3 minutes Gregg Semenza studied the EPO (erythropoietin) gene and how it is regulated by varying oxygen levels. In cultured liver cells he discovered a protein complex that binds to the identified DNA segment in an oxygen-dependent manner. He called this complex the hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF). HIF was found to consist of two different DNA-binding proteins, so called transcription factors, now named HIF-1α and ARNT. 6 | Sponsored by AAA 0.5 minutes A searchable transcript for this episode, as well as the captioned audiogram of this episode, are sponsored by the American Association for Anatomy (AAA) at anatomy.org. Searchable transcript Captioned audiogram 7 | VHL - An Unexpected Partner 3 minutes When oxygen levels are high, cells contain very little HIF-1α. However, when oxygen levels are low, the amount of HIF-1α increases so that it can bind to and thus regulate the EPO gene as well as other genes with HIF-binding DNA segments. See figure (if you can't see it, go to https://my-ap.us/35fm0O6). At about the same time as Semenza and Ratcliffe were exploring the regulation of the EPO gene, cancer researcher William Kaelin, Jr. was researching an inherited syndrome, von Hippel-Lindau's disease (VHL disease). VHL is part of a complex that labels proteins with ubiquitin, marking them for degradation in the proteasome. Ratcliffe and his research group then made a key discovery: demonstrating that VHL can physically interact with HIF-1α and is required for its degradation at normal oxygen levels. This conclusively linked VHL to HIF-1α. When oxygen levels are low (hypoxia), HIF-1α is protected from degradation and accumulates in the nucleus, where it associates with ARNT and binds to specific DNA sequences (HRE) in hypoxia-regulated genes (1). At normal oxygen levels, HIF-1α is rapidly degraded by the proteasome (2). Oxygen regulates the degradation process by the addition of hydroxyl groups (OH) to HIF-1α (3). The VHL protein can then recognize and form a complex with HIF-1α leading to its degradation in an oxygen-dependent manner (4). https://my-ap.us/35fm0O6 8 | Oxygen sHIFts the Balance 1.5 minutes It was also shown that the gene activating function of HIF-1α was regulated by oxygen-dependent hydroxylation. The Nobel Laureates had now elucidated the oxygen sensing mechanism and had shown how it works. 9 | Oxygen Shapes Physiology & Pathology 2 minutes Thanks to the groundbreaking work of these Nobel Laureates, we know much more about how different oxygen levels regulate fundamental physiological processes. For example, muscles, blood vessel formation, immunity, RBC production, placenta development, etc. Oxygen sensing is central to a large number of diseases. For example, patients with chronic renal

This chat touches on the value of respect and appreciation of human donors, proper implementation of human remains such as skeletons in A&P courses, and how that respect should extend to reproductions of human specimens. This is the first of two conversations with Aaron Fried.

This segment "continues the story" by discussing analogies. Analogies can be stories that help students understand complex concepts.

Presumably, the "live" attenuated MV used in vaccination triggers formation of memory cells against MV without causing the full-blown infection that impairs immune memory of other pathogens. 2 | Sponsored by HAPS 0.5 minutes The Human Anatomy & Physiology Society (HAPS) is a sponsor of this podcast.

The Wallendas are a family of highwire artists famous for very high/long "sky walks" and human pyramids on the wire Karl Wallenda, the most famous of the clan, died from a fall off the wire during a sky walk The famous 7-person pyramid was also marred by a tragic fall NOTE: The balance pole is normally up to about 30 pounds or so.

Scientific theories are tested every time someone makes an observation or conducts an experiment, so it is misleading to think of science as an edifice, built on foundations. Rather, scientific knowledge is more like a web. The difference couldn't be more crucial. A tall edifice can collapse – if the foundations upon which it was built turn out to be shaky. But a web can be torn in several parts without causing the collapse of the whole. The damaged threads can be patiently replaced and re-connected with the rest – and the whole web can become stronger, and more intricate. (Massimo Pigliucci) 1 | Feedback in Online tests 7 minutes In Episode 36, Adam Rich called in regarding how we can provide feedback to students taking online tests. I responded that I encourage students to get the correct response from their study buddies—or from me.

The proposed name is trans-cortical vessels (TCVs). We've discovered a new type of blood vessel in our bones (brief article summarizing the discovery) my-ap.us/2B6tHce A network of trans-cortical capillaries as mainstay for blood circulation in long bones (full research article) my-ap.us/2B6ttSq Video (gif) showing a virtual trip through a TCV my-ap.us/2B6XX6H 3 | Big Year: Content Updates & Applications 6 minutes The first of several segments in a "debriefing" of the first year of this podcast. This year brought many content updates and brief teaching snippets, from using green pens for grading to the role of platelets in immunity.
