Thanks Trevor. Of course, thanks to your research, we also know that as the "intraphagocytic microbiota" are killed off and health is restored, the human cells are able to restore their proper gene expression. Based on that, we can repair the damage done even by previous generations, whether the damage was epigenetic or otherwise.

I had previously thought that anything passed on by previous generations was caused by the "pea soup" or whatever bacteria was passed on by our parents via the sperm/egg. So now I imagine that it's caused by both the bacteria passed on and whatever epigenetic changes have already been made to the DNA before all the cell division starts at conception.

Hi guys,

Are we talking about the kinds of genetic changes seen in chromosome abnormalities like this:


Chromosome 5q deletion syndrome (chromosome 5q monosomy, 5q- syndrome) is a rare disorder caused by loss of part of the long arm (q arm, band 5q31.1) of human chromosome 5.
(from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromosome_5q_deletion_syndrome)

Or something different? This genetic stuff is really confusing. I had genealogical DNA testing done - can the intraphagocytic microbiome cause changes in that too?

Thanks in advance for any enlightenment!

We cover this in the new chapter we have just written, but can't put the text online yet :X The short answer is "yes" -- both from errors in testing caused by genomes that the test lab wasn't expecting to find, and from epigenetic interactions between the microbiota and the human cells (and back the other way, too).

Interesting. I did testing for the genographic project at National Geographic, which is supposed to give results 100's of generations back, tracing the migration of human beings. Other companies are using it to prove family relationships, not anything close like paternal testing, but in the distant past.

Will have to keep an eye on what happens in that field.

Does that mean stuff like Down's Syndrome could potentially be reversed?

I hope I have not missed that someone else has already posted about the below mentioned video
Bonnie Bassler talking about 'Quorum sensing'.
I have enjoyed it very much!

Good video and interesting there is a glimmer that mainstream are starting to accept that Koch was wrong, biofilms have been around longer than we have and we need to be innovative in fighting disease.

I still think that antimicrobial peptides are natures way of doing the right thing and the idea of man creating more mass spectrum antimicrobial drugs is a scary prospect.....

I saw "I am Legend".....;) 


Thanks for posting a very enjoyable presentation.

After viewing the video, which was so informative and full of much science which gives me excitement for the MP, I now ask a question.

Where does the VDR receptor reside?  On the cell wall?  Or is this molecule floating around inside the cell?

Sorry about these basic questions.

Sherry

Sherry,
The VDR transits between the cytoplasm and the nucleus. It gets its ligand in the cytoplasm, and then translocates to the nucleus (where the DNA is located) in order to transcribe the genes.
 
At least, that is what is currently believed :)

Thanks Trevor. And what types of cells is the VDR in? Also, are the cells that the VDR is in located everywhere in the body?

Thanks for asking Sherry--that was on my list too. :) No question is too basic. When I started reading about the VDR, I thought it was some singly located thing in the brain like the pineal gland or something!!! How crazy is that? We all have to start where we're at and learn from there.

Marysue,
If you ask a specialist in mouse biology you will get a totally different answer for "what type of cells is the VDR in?" That is why there is confusion on this topic. Mice VDR are very different from Human VDR (remember my video of Olmesartan in each).

All nucleated cells have VDR in them. It is believed that activation of the estrogen beta receptor, along with other cofactors, causes expression of the VDR. In turn, the VDR expresses Estrogen receptors. So there is a careful ying-yang relationship which has to be maintained.

The cells which interest us most are the phagocytic cells - the monocytes, macrophages and lymphocytes, as it is in these cells that the innate immune system is suppressed by the microbiota.

Just wanted you to know that I really appreciate your research! It is something that I probably wouldn't know where to find on my own and I get to benefit from your efforts.   Thank  you  :cool::cool::cool:  Thats one of the many things I love about this sight the wealth of knowledge that is shared so generously with each other!

The problem of bacterial induced suppression of Innate Immunity seems to be an old problem in Life. According to a publication of 2006, plants face similar problems:

A Bacterial Virulence Protein Suppresses Host Innate Immunity to Cause Plant Disease
http://www.sciencemag.org/cgi/content/abstract/313/5784/220

An MP Pathology model...for Plants ? :)

Hello Alex,

thank you for sharing this article. Another 'reason' to keep on talking to the plants around me.
Going from there I have found another one article:

http://rstb.royalsocietypublishing.org/content/364/1513/85.full

It gives a fine overview of recent knowledge.
Now I feel as a kind of Neandertal scientist studying  Translational Medicine thinking
what and how they stick to their human DNA-protein in the body thesis and wonder about obstacles why this 'reality' does not reward them with blockbuster drugs....

Take care,
Titta
