Join the nano-rare disease community! Interviews features leading physicians, scientists, biotech experts, and patient advocates. Lessons teach core concepts about drugs. Our host Dr. Crooke has led the creation of antisense technology and his foundation, n-Lorem, is using this powerful technology to discover, develop, and provide personalized experimental antisense oligonucleotide medicines to nano-rare patients for free, for life.
n-Lorem is a non-profit organization established to apply the efficiency, versatility and specificity of antisense technology to charitably provide experimental antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) medicines to treat patients (less than 30 patients) that are the result of a single genetic defect unique to only one or very few individuals. The advantage of experimental ASO medicines is that they can be developed rapidly, inexpensively and are highly specific. n-Lorem was founded by Dr. Stan Crooke, who founded IONIS Pharmaceuticals in 1989 and, through his vision and leadership, established the company as the leader in RNA-targeted therapeutics.
The podcast is produced by n-Lorem Foundation and hosted by Dr. Stanley T. Crooke, who is the Founder, CEO and Chairman. Our videographer is Jon Magnuson. Our producers are Kira Dineen, Jon Magnuson, Andrew Serrano, and Amy Williford. To learn more about n-Lorem, visit nlorem.org. Contact us at podcast@nlorem.org.

How Cells Phone a Friend: Long Distance Communication
How do cells communicate with each other? With trillions of cells in the human body, seamless collaboration is essential within this intricate cellular society. Cells work together to form organs, and when one organ needs another to perform a task, they send signals across distances—much like picking up the phone and calling someone. Organ Hotline
📞 Eyes: Hey, Brain? This is Eyes. We’re reading this post about how organs communicate, and it’s really interesting.📞 Brain: Oh, show me more! What’s it say? 📞 Eyes: Apparently, organs send signals to each other to get stuff done. Like, the liver calls the stomach when it’s time to detox! 📞 Brain: Whoa, I had no idea they were so organized! Keep reading, I need all the details! 📞 Eyes: I’m on it! But it says they made a whole podcast episode on in. 📞 Brain: Alright, I’m sold! I'm signaling to press play. On This Episode We Discuss:
How cells talk to each other
Multicellular organisms
Why cells create organs
Organ to organ communication - Electrochemical
Chemical signals - The endocrine system
Hormones created by other organs
