Inheritance is a fundamental feature of life, allowing organisms to pass traits onto their offspring. It’s well known that DNA is the carrier for this hereditary information, but for a long time it was believed to be the only carrier. Over the past several decades, new and evolving research on epigenetics—the method by which the environment has the ability to change genetic expression—has emerged, and most recently, this research has focused on epigenetic inheritance in humans. Dr. Qi Chen, Assistant Professor of Biomedical Sciences at the University of California, Riverside is studying sperm RNA and how its function may be related to environmental exposure and epigenetics in humans. Dr. Chen shares a number of fascinating insights from his lab and recent experiments, while pulling from decades’ worth of knowledge on the topics at issue. On today’s episode, you will learn:  What happens when the RNA of a mouse exposed to a high-fat diet is extracted and implanted into a healthy zygote How the discovery of a subset of tRNA-derived small RNAs (tsRNA) in the mature sperm of mice might have important implications for epigenetic inheritance in humans How sperm RNA changes in response to environmental stimuli  Tune in for all the details and check out http://qichen-lab.info/people.html to learn more.

An Exploration of Epigenetic Inheritance—Dr. Qi Chen, PhD—Assistant Professor, Biomedical Sciences at UC Riverside

Each day we’re faced with countless choices: how we’ll get to work, what we plan to do over the weekend, what we’ll eat for lunch...and the list goes on. Over time, the choices we make and the environmental stimuli we encounter can actually cause changes in our gene expression, which is called epigenetics. On today’s podcast, Dr. Qi Chen, Assistant Professor of Biomedical Sciences at the University of California, Riverside discusses epigenetic inheritance in humans—the way in which epigenetic changes in humans can be passed onto offspring. In his lab, Dr. Chen is exploring this by studying sperm RNA in mice and looking at how it functions as a carrier of heritable epigenetic information. In this podcast, you will discover:  What happens when the RNA of a mouse exposed to a high-fat diet is extracted and implanted into a healthy zygote How the discovery of a subset of tRNA-derived small RNAs (tsRNA) in the mature sperm of mice might have important implications for epigenetic inheritance in humans In what ways RNA interacts with the underlying DNA  Press play to hear the full conversation and visit http://qichen-lab.info/people.html for more information about the work being done in Dr. Chen’s lab.
