Is aging a disease that can be cured? Neil deGrasse Tyson and cohosts Chuck Nice and Gary O’Reilly discover the field of epigenetics, the Information Theory of Aging, and curing blindness for mice with Professor of Genetics at Harvard Medical School, David Sinclair.
What is epigenetics? Discover the difference between genetics and epigenetics. We discuss whether aging is a disease and if there have been any changes in aging throughout the centuries. David breaks down the information theory of aging and how epigenetic inheritance works. Plus, Chuck tells us about some of the studies he’s reading and how behaviors during your lifetime can be epigenetically passed onto your children.
Could we someday cure death? What does aging look like in the broader animal kingdom? We look at aging from an evolutionary standpoint, restoring vision in blind mice, and what the length of your telomeres tells you. We break down conflicting information regarding diet and how to not just live longer but live younger, longer. What are the genes that control aging?
We break down what anti-aging medicine would look like and whether it would be affordable for everyday people. Learn about the world's oldest mice with the youngest eyes. We discuss the Yamanaka genes and how they can be utilized to turn back time on a cellular level. Is DNA destiny?
Thanks to our Patrons Jason L, Daniel Holzmann, Anne P Vance, Unknown, Myles G Blanton, Paul A. Straus, and Gregory Dees for supporting us this week.

The first thing that came to mind is that this could be great for interstellar travel. Extend life for long journeys outside our Solar System, rather than trying to travel at the speed of light, missing opportunities for great research along the way. On Earth, the average of 90 years is enough for many who have no interest in space travel, but for those who dream of getting to know the universe, they need more time to at least travel within our galaxy. Jaime P Oliveira

@iohio8677 Месяц назад

Glad to see David Sinclair after a long time. I've been following him since 2016 and been a huge fan. Unfortunately, there have been a few controversies surrounding his work recently. Also, there's a doctor from New Zealand called Brad Stanfield who regularly criticizes him with seemingly well-researched and balanced takes. Would be great if Dr Sinclair could dedicate sometime to address the issues raised by Dr Stanfield, particularly when it comes to NMN.

I had a tooth implant treatment in Japan. They made a stem cell mixture from my tissue and filled the hole from the extracted tooth. After a couple months that hole completely filled in with bone. The result is I don't need metal plates or anything artificial to support the new tooth which will be made completely from Zirconia. There is current research being done in Japan to grow new teeth. So maybe we won't need implants in the near future.

@-Mohog Месяц назад

Quite amazing. This is also interesting regarding space traveling. If we can increase our lifespan significantly, we don't have to worry about the distances and time it takes to travel from one place to another quite as much then anymore and it would make it possible to make longer trips even if we won't discover some new amazing way to travel significantly faster. Although the distances in space are so vast the lifespan increase should also be quite immense. But at least in our Solar System and perhaps even enabling us to travel to Proxima Centauri and back within a human lifetime could become more of a reality. Perhaps even a few other closest star systems. Very intriguing interview and information.

I and my 2 sisters are into our 60s with no health issues, maybe just lucky, but personally I also think it has something to do with your genes past down from your parents, having 1 balanced meal a day gives your body a chance to repair itself rather than spending most of its time digesting food, I'm not to sure, but I definitely think genes play an important role in longer life, great show, all the best from the UK.

what about: myeloablation and transplantation where patient receives stem cell transplant from a compatible donor (allogeneic transplant), has studies been done on patients with total myeloblation, whether they become young as the donor? surely this has been tested in patients with leukemia? I assume this would test the information theory?myeloablation" or "ablation," depending on the intensity of the regimen. Transplantation: After the conditioning regimen, the patient receives the stem cell transplant. The stem cells can be donated by a compatible donor (allogeneic transplant) (post a deep fasting period of 5 days?)

@MythicosQc74 Месяц назад

1) Allogenic transplants are an incredibly hard procedure to go through, with a death rate at 2 years of 5-30%, depending on the exact type; 2) Long term survival of patients is often predicated on the transplant's ability to completely replace the receiver's original stem cells with the donor's. There's no guarantee it will succeeds, and it takes only one leukemic cell of the donor to have survived myeloablation to make the disease come back; 3) Only the stem BLOOD cells (the ones produced by the bone marrow resulting in the different blood cells (platelets-red blood cells-white blood cells)) are replaced; this won't change anything to the DNA or epigenetics of the receiver's other cells, i.e. there's no positive influence on the patient's long term survival (other than the fact that the procedure will potentially heal the cancer, of course).

@wanfuse Месяц назад

@@MythicosQc74 I was not suggesting it as a method for general use, but rather as a method of proof for the information theory, that is, does it result in a short term reversal, performing the procedure only on the person with leukemia that has no other alternative anyway.

Leukemia is a terrible disease. I don't see how it could be a good place to look for hints about leaving a long time. Acute myeloid leukemia has a five year survival rate of about 20%, and that includes everyone who's been able to have a stem cell transplant. Look at the probability of survival curves for aml. You will be shocked. Survival is even worse for relapsed aml. Survival time for relapse might be three or four months. If you want a good problem to work on, find out how to eliminate leukemic stem cells. It is the one in a million leukemic stem cell, after treatment, even after treatment with a stem cell transplant, that causes relapse.

@@timtruett5184 Experimental treatments have advanced medical science across various fatal illnesses, providing hope and potential pathways to cures. Beyond gene therapy for Canavan disease and hyper-personalized medicine, other notable efforts include: Experimental gene replacements for immune deficiencies Advanced cell therapy for certain types of cancer Innovative biologics for neurodegenerative diseases Groundbreaking antiviral drugs for viral infections Cutting-edge stem cell treatments for heart disease Each of these areas represents a frontier in the ongoing battle against life-threatening conditions, showcasing the power of science and innovation in pushing the boundaries of medicine. Things that were wrongly done without patient consent include ( wrongly I am adding for clarity--- so my position is not misrepresented) HeLa cell line, derived from Henrietta Lacks' cervical cancer cells in 1951 without her knowledge or consent.

There will be a time when life expectancy would be 150 years, right now average is around 70ish years, see the way we are shocked our ancestors lived only 35 years, our future generation would be shocked how we used to have a low 70 years expectancy

Wait a minute...pls clear up the confusion. People think sinclair conned his way through with data that can't be replicated for some studies he did before...

@Theanalyst-pz1ui Месяц назад

I am a data guy, and I don't think population will increase. If we look at what happened last time life expectancy doubled. We went from having 7 children, to 2 children. We went from having children at 15 and 16 to children at 25, 26. This is because back in the 1700 and 1800s people only lives to be 30-40 years old. If you were 15, or 18, you were middle aged. Now we frown on teen pregnancies. I think based on what happened last time we doubled the life expectancy, people will wait longer to have children, and we will go from 2 children to negative birth rates.

@animeboi4010 Месяц назад

Here in Africa we still having 7 children minimum. And teenage pregnancy has become a normal thing. We so many, 30% can't even get employment

@Theanalyst-pz1ui Месяц назад

@@animeboi4010 Good point, if you lived to be 250 years old, 50 becomes the new 20. The reason you would want 7 children is normally to help with farming, and to take care of you in old age. However as countries become more developed, and life expectancy goes up, education increases, people tend to see less reason to have so many children. This is because Farming goes down, and well people start living longer. So no need to have so many children for old age or to help with farming. People are also selfish. Alot don't want to spend their early years taking care of children. So population decreasing in countries like japan, or even india is just natural. I suspect countries in africa like Nigeria or Ethiopia, egypt, will start to decline in birth rate as development continues. Its not instant.

Hey, watch yourself and each other, just look around from an ET's point of view, and you'll know we're not the endpoint of life's evolution. We're still in the teenage phase, as a species - more power than wisdom🤣. We'll each die, no matter what the clickbait says. Imagine the hubris, to think we are the endpoint of evolution, that no improvement could be made to the human form or brain, and that we won't die. If that's what people have been led to believe lately, then no wonder the world's gotten weird. Each human is born with these competitive urges that you say we've evolved past. We wish we had evolved past them, but in reality we have to do a ton of hard work to not be controlled by the impulsive and harmful aspects of "human nature". That's what spiritual training is. It's so difficult because "capitalist society" means a society whose rules take advantage of those competitive urges (thru incentives and punishments) in order to keep the goods and services flowing. That's really the source of the clash between spirituality and western culture.

@plazadepaul Месяц назад

@@GizzyDillespee Yeah but you're competing for a better society and future for all, and that includes immortality and capitalism is very conducive to that. Your reasoning and reality assertion skills seem faulty, you might be bipolar. Imagine your bewilderment when you look back on your comment and realize YOUR hubris, when simply through your attitude you're an enemy to yourself, your family and humanity itself. Sure, other species probably already got way further, yet they were at a stage similar to ours once. We're the end point of evolution on our planet and we can and need to aspire to be equal to the top tier civilizations in the universe. Spirituality is rooted in physicality, there's no 2 ways about it. And whilst spirituality promises infinity, paradise and immortality, those promises are rooted and predicated in each and every one of our bodies and we must achieve our goals. Otherwise what ethereal, nebulous, otherworldly spirituality are you referring to? Bowing down to creation and accepting death and mockery from all other extraterrestrial civilizations? Pass.

Interesting episode I hope to track down some materials to inform myself better on this. Pardon my ignorance but to convey myself I need to describe things in terms of a computer system. In terms of hardware (DNA) or operating system (epigenetics). Medically interesting about reproducing a peripheral (eye) but two things with this episode stuck with me. A backup copy exists but you are not really sure about where it exists yet. How can you trust this backup? How do you know when it was made? Also this backup does it contain the up to date drivers for the peripherals or is the experiences you have create those and your rollback actually removes your efforts to better suit those cells to its environment? Would this reset immunities built up? I hope I find the materials online to better inform myself.
