![]() The Human Anatomy & Physiology Society (HAPS) is a sponsor of this podcast. No time travel or superheroes, but indeed a story of a freshman chem course and a teaching and learning method that Kevin still uses. Just checking to see if anybody actually reads these notes that I spend so much time on. Kevin goes back in time to tell a story of his freshman year at the university, when an incident in a chemistry class altered his life forever. Kevin Patton is a faculty member in this program at Northeast College of Health Sciences. A combination of science courses (enough to qualify you to teach at the college level) and courses in contemporary instructional practice, this program helps you be your best in both on-campus and remote teaching. The Master of Science in Human Anatomy & Physiology Instruction-the MS-HAPI-is a graduate program for A&P teachers, especially for those who already have a graduate/professional degree. Sponsored by HAPI Online Graduate Program Human cells make a soaplike substance that busts up bacteria | A surprising cellular defensive strategy could inspire new antibiotics (summary of the discovery from Science News) /3zJvNdW.A human apolipoprotein L with detergent-like activity kills intracellular pathogens (journal article from Science) /3BNy21C.APOL2 (apolipoprotein L2 details for the biochem enthusiasts) /2WDRkXb.But did you know that soap is another of those cell defenses? Listen and find out how that works. But each cell has it’s own defenses, too-for example, interferon. When we think of immune defense, we often first think of professional immune cells like macrophages and lymphocytes. Lung cell images show how intense a coronavirus infection can be | Microscopic views reveal virus particles coating the hairlike cilia of an airway cell (a related article in Science News) /3BLlQON.The coronavirus cuts cells’ hairlike cilia, which may help it invade the lungs | Trimming the structures prevents mucus from moving the invaders out toward the throat (summary of the discover in Science News) /3zG9B4j.SARS-CoV-2 infection induces the dedifferentiation of multiciliated cells and impairs mucociliary clearance (journal article in Nature Communications has some cool images you have permission to use in your course also two AWESOME videos demonstrating movement of mucus blanket by cilia) /3jaVeyv.Here’s one viral effect that may help students better understand the vital role of cilia. We know that the SARS-CoV-2 virus potentially wreaks all kinds of havoc in the infected human body. HOW TO MAKE AN ELEPHANT APPEAR!

That mystery is revealed in this segment-in more ways than one! It was only when the other lights were removed that I could see what had been there all along. ![]() As I stared at the stars, I realized that there were always this many of them.
