Widescreen: Driven to Discover: Can we create a human organ?

[TheGeckoNinja]

wouldnt think make us live way longer than a normal human would, this concept also make it so you dont even age, dont you think?

[PeAcE2010Mahdi]

if the human beings ,animals and everything in this earth come together , they won't create mosquito.

Thank Allah

....the only reason why researchers like them are highly funded is cause rich guys (trump, rockefeller, hilton, Mattola ...you name it) fund them to further their life span.

they just can't accept death as their last accomplishment in life. so they want to live on... forever with this kind of research (hoping it would be finished in time before they pass on)

and like foxprogt said, this research may only be available to the rich, who knows how many dollars would be used since their monopolizing

[nepalihercules]

@bigjoe777 that's why rich people get stored in cryogenic chamber

i think its easier to develop drugs that stimulate a patient's undifferentiated stem cells and stimulate it to repair whatever damage on a particular organ.

bad too play god ;)

[scotthughesphotog]

what about using a cadaver's heart instead of a pig heart, and use one that is healthy.

This could eliminate the need for a pig heart altogether, still washing the cells away with detergents and growing new cells from the recipient's own body.

You could get dead hearts without the need to match by current transplant standards

My son is a hemophiliac Factor B, maybe one day you can produce a healthy liver for him, he's 11.

@LamaPaj

lol... these days this kind of research is done to find ways to make money... not help sick people.

[xmitchell27]

this is very interesting, deleting the dead cells and refueling it with living cells... almost like a forced regeneration.

[xultimate92x]

there already is artificial hearts so what makes this better? its like takeing a metal bone and replacing with a real one, go work on cancer

[0xJmanxo]

ultimate, anything our bodys make naturaly is inharently better than a artificial version. Natural antidepresents our body naturaly makes is inharently better than artificial antidepresents. The same goes for hearts, if you get a artificial heart or a transplant you must take pills that weaken your immune system so it doesnt reject it (aka your body kills the organ)
