hopefully someone invents a way to download memories, personality, cravings, and habits or the mind entirely to pair with jellyfish immortality (cloning?). Immortality without regression sounds kind of really far, unless robotics progresses enough Edit: Grammar and forgot a word or 2
I love this channel so much, I started studying biology this semester and we just covered hydrozoa but in a way less interesring way. Its amazing how you can make the exact same topic that much more interesting
I did not learn anything that really counts about Quantum Mechanics and General Relativity when I studied Physics. UA-cam videos told me the real story.
It took 100 years after its discovery to realize the powers of this jellyfish. It might take another 100 years to implement the beneficial aspects of this.
It doesn't just roll back into a 'baby', it essentially turns back into a fetus. It's hard to consider this "immortality", it's arguably the same organism but once the babies spawn from the polyp it's certainly not the same individual. In a human, a process that could take us back that far would wipe clean all of the memories and scars that define a person's identity. You, as an individual human person, would slowly die as your brain shrunk and congealed into a mass of cells with no capacity for cognition. The resulting person(s) would essentially be a clone of the original. As she pointed out, that's not the purpose of the research, I'm just quibbling about how these creatures are commonly referred to as immortal. The research into telomeres could result in some kind of Lazarus treatment, but as pointed out in the video, in humans this would likely not result in us de-aging to such an extent. Most likely it would only "stop the clock" at our current age, but it could also potentially allow us to (very slowly) reverse the negative effects of aging to have the bone, neuron, and muscle resilience of a 30 year old.
Yeah, it could be something like: if your DNA is taken and a clone baby is created who looks just like you, then it wouldn't mean that it's you, in fact far from it, it will have different personality and will act differently than you... "You" isn't just your body, it also includes your feelings and consciousness which can't be simply added to your clone.
Another Paradoxical question that arises is that let's say a way is created by which you can make your own clone which has same consciousness, feelings and memories, as you have... does that mean it's really you? Like, is it really you or it's just your clone with your feelings and personality?
@@verytiredhonestly Jellies definitely bring up the question of where the boundaries of cognition, consciousness, and individuality are. They don't have brains, but they do have a complex, distributed nervous system capable of forming engrams. It can't be known whether these engrams are purely for motor memory, or they are capable of some level of experiential memory that could imply base level consciousness. There's more going on than flora that reflexively seek light, water, or rich soil. But less going on than more neurologically complex fauna capable of recognizing relatives and forming social bonds as individuals.
@@NTdredd This is the concept of 'continuity of consciousness', the idea that no mater how perfect and complete, a copy of you is not 'you'. In sci-fi t's often brought up in criticisms of the idea behind star-trek style teleporters, even by characters in the Trek universe who don't trust the technology.
6:21 Senescence is not cell death. On the contrary. It is living cells deteriorating in function and ceasing of cell division. They're rather accurately called "zombie cells" because they are indeed still active, just dysfunctional. They're still however releasing proinflammatory mediator chemicals, etc. (The so-called SASP, senescence-associated secretory phenotype).
I think there's an overlooked aspect of the regression -- the polyp becomes multiple adults. This isn't one adult reverting to childhood and growing up again to refresh itself. This is an adult reproducing in a way that consumes itself. In an organism, over any given period of time, each cell has a chance of malfunctioning. Over time, these malfunctions accumulate until they threaten the life of the overall organism. In reproduction, a small number of cells are used to start a new organism. Fewer cells, fewer chances for malfunctions, lower chance of enough malfunctions accumulating to prevent the offspring from reaching maturity. If you sample enough conceptions that the number of starting cells is equal in number to the cells of an adult, you will be able to witness the chance malfunctions in the form of birth defects and nonviable larvae/fetuses/etc. But plenty of offspring did not experience those malfunctions, allowing the species to continue. In this regression-based reproduction, there may be a far greater number of old cells which will contribute to each new organism, meaning more defunct cells to start with and thus a reduced viability of each offspring. I'm interested to see if research has been done regarding that.
@@cgrisby1965 the regression prior to the stress-reproduction is unique, and studying it definitely has the potential to improve medicine, buy it's far from immortality
@@klikkolee yes I agree that it's NOT Immortality, I was simply using the word immortal because I'm guessing it's part of it's name. NOTHING on Earth is immortal or incapable of death or destruction.
So basically like making a copy of a copy. Or a better analogy would be like using a plate to print. Every copy becomes less and less sharp than the original.
Is it really hard too tho? 75% of the planet is water. We are the ants in comparison my friend. What's out in the ocean is why beyond what humans will ever be as a whole, on this planet that is
Oceanic life has been around far more longer then land life. So I feel that is why its more unique. Simply because evolution has been occuring in the oceaan far more longer then land. Not to mention land life has been in more recent extinctions. Humans I feel are still more advanced considering we havevent been on the planet for long yet we evolved so quickly within a small period of time. But oceanic life is far more diverse because life has had more time to evolve. We have to remember that human brain cells are still critical on how humanity will evolve. I feel like oceanic life cells evolved to survive, that will be the critical piece for human brain cells. To create the tools to survive.
@@1224chrisng could also be that even in the UK and former colonies, (minus America (and maybe India) because they have to be special) aglets is a pretty rare term, and outside of those countries it's basically unheard of.
I remember watching a documentary about a scientist in Japan that was obsessed with them, and how they may be the key for immortality in humans or much longer lifespans.
your layout for all your videos are amazing. You explain a little bit, then explain further with strong vocabulary and high res pics and good editing. Nice videos.
You should do a video on the naked mole rat. It’s the only mammal that they’ve discovered that doesn’t age. They’ve also found that lobsters also don’t age. Maybe with a combination of Crisper CAS -9 and these animals we can find a way of extending human life.
That's not really the case though, as lobsters certainly become more feeble and prone to illness with age. Aging is a much more complex process than just telomeres. As for naked mole rats, it might be said they age in a different way, or don't show signs of age the way other mammals do (even for the naked mole rat, their DNA shows signs of aging).
@@Ryodraco Agreed, if anything, the most fascinating thing about mole rats is that they're eusocial mammals.... like wasps and ants. Oh and they're nearly ectotherms. Weird creatures
I would love to do this, presuming these are light sensitive, split the groups into two tanks (or one per jelly), and flash lights red for a tested timeframe (say a day- so it's not too long or short), then some of the jellyfish a pinch to trigger it going back to polyp. The other is a control group of course. Then keep repeating this to see if the jellyfish starts reverting based on seeing the red light.
Not only microRNA and telomere elongation, but gene silencing by chromatin condensation is very important in the aging process (probably causes the Second one). We need to shed more light on how the process works.
Imagine how amazingly stellar the leap to immortality will (hopefully) be in the future of our species. Learning about this little creature is truly inspiring!
Did you know the has avocado we eat technically comes from one single tree! This is true for a lot of stuff, you can find examples of negligible senescence everywhere but it's much less common in vertebrates.
Are you sure this is the case with avocados? While true for specific varieties that are reproduced through grafting, avocados produce genetically unique edible varieties from seed unlike some other fruits. There’s wild avocados everywhere where I live and they are all a little different. Every once and a while you can get a unique variety from seed that has desirable qualities and can then be grafted to other rootstocks. I seem to remember that the banana that we know and love was the result of a single genetic mutation though and we cultivate those as clones of the original varieties. For this reason many banana varieties are seriously at risk from the spread of diseases from which they cannot develop resistance to since they are all clones
@@maukaman I'm pretty sure it's true for the "Has" variety of avocado, that's why i specified, and yeah most commercially grown bananas are genetically identical.
I would love to see a vocab list at the end btw, some might find it annoying, but I feel like I’d be able to remember more if the videos had this feature
i think the most interesting thing that could happen is life not being extended at all even if we physically retain our more youthful looks for longer so we just end up with 80 year Olds looking like 30 and 40 year olds.
Well actually everything in my life is all based off my previous actions and behaviors it seems via trolling......, even all the YT videos are regurgitated tid bits from previous trollings ' actually....., and then as a result the behavior of every single person is now the same in person as a result as well basically,( because of the trolling) basically a groundhog day scenario basically...to a lesser degree lol!
I heard a theory once that we lost the ability to regenerate telomeres as a defense against cancer (cancer cells can regenerate telomeres), is this jellyfish any more likely to get cancer?
Well I’ve got good news and bad news for you! Good news, we can! Bad news… turns out giving cells extra telomerase can definitely make them cancerous 😅.
@@ashleyfarre Not if we can figure out to take out the side effects of that cancer I am guessing cause whales and larger animals do provide clues on how to stop cancer in their bodies.
3:44 this is the generalized life cycle for scyphozoan jellies ("true jellyfish"), not for the hydrozoans, which Turritopsis belongs to. Turritopsis medusae develop as buds on the stalks of the polyp colony, and then detach as young medusae which resemble smaller versions of the mature medusae. They don't strobilate, i.e., divide via transverse divisions along the stalk of the polyp like is shown here, and they do not have an ephyra-like appearance as young medusae-the term "ephyra" is only used to describe young scyphozoan medusae.
I would almost like the idea of immortality, if the universe itself he'll or our solar system and galaxy weren't going to die themselves and come to an end. It all seems pointless then. So maybe just a way to slow down aging, some sort of nanotechnology that can be created on a micro level to keep the telomeres elongated will work better for us.
@@ik6non712 yesyes agreed ...but also like .. In my country, the textbooks here are more focused on pushing knowledge into our brain, rather than creating a curious mind. So i think that plays a role too for growing intrest in a subject

one thing about the telomere repair,, we do have telomerase naturally in our bodies, it's just that their production and function and restricted. this is because if our cells were constantly repairing themselves and replicating and never died, we'd just start growing and growing and growing until we couldn't sustain enough energy to keep our metabolism functioning. in fact, one of the key mutations that causes cancer changes the restrictions of telomerase, which makes tumor cells essentially immune to time.
Success depends on the actions or steps you take to achieve it. Show me a man without investment and I’ll tell you how long it takes to go bankrupt. Investing creates a safe heaven for the future. Thanks to Rose Albert
I agree with you, I had a senior colleague at work who lived well but never had an investment, unfortunately his job ended so he went from living well to surviving with his family.
It made perfect sense, as he said for an investment, the person has to consider the rate of profit versus the rate of loss at least 2% minimum risk and also experience for you to guide and help them.

@@ashleyfarre Not if we can figure out to take out the side effects of that cancer I am guessing cause whales and larger animals do provide clues on how to stop cancer in their bodies.
this channel doesn't deserve to be watch for free. Incredible quality!
3:44 this is the generalized life cycle for scyphozoan jellies ("true jellyfish"), not for the hydrozoans, which Turritopsis belongs to. Turritopsis medusae develop as buds on the stalks of the polyp colony, and then detach as young medusae which resemble smaller versions of the mature medusae. They don't strobilate, i.e., divide via transverse divisions along the stalk of the polyp like is shown here, and they do not have an ephyra-like appearance as young medusae-the term "ephyra" is only used to describe young scyphozoan medusae.

Jellyfish: I'm bout to ruin this mans whole career
I'm curious, could we use telomerase in some way to reverse damage to our own telomers?
Absolutely fascinating
Your videos have such amazing production quality. It is always well presented and is a treat for curious folks. Keep up the good work. +1
To have it as own is amazing
I would almost like the idea of immortality, if the universe itself he'll or our solar system and galaxy weren't going to die themselves and come to an end. It all seems pointless then. So maybe just a way to slow down aging, some sort of nanotechnology that can be created on a micro level to keep the telomeres elongated will work better for us.
Yes! Her voice is everything!
imagine it gets a lifetime prison amount
Life is incredible
Who came here after Miles told you about the immortal jellyfish?
Narrarator really knows how to advertise. I need something to binge watch
Tbh , as a Zoology student i learnt more about animals from this channel than my textbooks lol😆
I think it's because textbook word things in unnecessarily convoluted way, whilst videos are often more colloquial. But yeah, this channel is a gem
@@ik6non712 yesyes agreed ...but also like .. In my country, the textbooks here are more focused on pushing knowledge into our brain, rather than creating a curious mind. So i think that plays a role too for growing intrest in a subject
@@swagatbaruah7839 Bro that happens everywhere. Try to get an internship so you get exposure to research methodology. Unless you go to a standard Institute, which is extremely tough in India, you will not get to have the advantage of both theory and research-oriented programmes. It takes effort, but internship at a good place will change the way you see your subject.
I love that you have the references!!!!! I actually want to read more about this
Fascinating! Nice content and presentation. This seems like a shortcut around nature's genetic blender though, and could lead to dead ends in the paths of evolution.
Not necessarily, because would it exist if you didn't know it could evolve?
@@neanda changes in allele frequencies in a population
this is the coolest thing ever!!!!!!
So we can use the jellyfishes telomerase to repair our telomeres? maybe we could have some kind of telomerase injections to boost telomere repairs
There is an atmospheric chamber therapy that regenerates our telomeres.
I'm obsessed with your channel. I love learning about different animals, especially aquatic animals.
Scientists discover that living cells are machines and life is intelligently designed. It shouldnt have taken them so long.

Go away.

You'd think this designer would be smart enough to at least let us live longer. Maybe make us taller, not have to eat as much, something
@@arkkon2740 His intent is to emphasize the vanity and brevity of this life. The book of Ecclesiastes might interest you....
@@TheSharperSword Well whats the reason exactly? He created us and kinda forced us into existing, so whats even the point of giving your creations life if they dont want to live it sometimes?
Why is there a theory about octopodes being aliens when jellyfish exist?
When adulting gets hard..
For more information about the Buteyko method you can read the following 2 articles:

Brb, let me crawl back in my mom's womb
I'm trying to find the comment about how all human... interaction ( not with nature) is all the same now , and then got diverted away from the comment which I later eventually realized( how could I not lol!) that too , was ANOTHER! ex about how there ..."technically" ....is no longer any surprises for me anymore lol! cuz THAT TOO .....was another behavior that has occured ...why ? .....hmmmmm....oh I know...CUZ I WAS TROLLED...IN....THE.... PAST! ....LOL! ..... Instead this time it was trolling seconds or min in THE PAST lol! ..... unlike the usual day, month, yr , or yrs ' ... type of trolling this time lol!
Let me crawl back up into my Petri dish!!! Hahaha 😂
“Can’t eat your lunch until you find something good to watch” been there 😅
Im convinced jellyfish aren’t from earth cause this is incredible
Maybe they are from Earth and we are the aliens.
one thing about the telomere repair,, we do have telomerase naturally in our bodies, it's just that their production and function and restricted. this is because if our cells were constantly repairing themselves and replicating and never died, we'd just start growing and growing and growing until we couldn't sustain enough energy to keep our metabolism functioning. in fact, one of the key mutations that causes cancer changes the restrictions of telomerase, which makes tumor cells essentially immune to time.
Real Science lapel pins 🥺👉👈
omg. yes
What a fantastic animal
How does a jellyfish taste like when cooked and eaten?
Only one way to find out ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Absolutely nothing
@@Babigoldfish wait you're telling me you cooked and ate a jellyfish?
Did it sting?
@@Zamu273 We use em in salads. Don’t like them at all cus they don’t even absorb the vinegar/nuoc mam sauce. We don’t eat poisonous ones obviously
@@Babigoldfish I thought Jellyfish produced jam?
Solid video, thanks
Despite the economic downturn,I'm so happy☺️. I have been earning $90,000 returns from my $7,000 investment every 14days.
Success depends on the actions or steps you take to achieve it. Show me a man without investment and I’ll tell you how long it takes to go bankrupt. Investing creates a safe heaven for the future. Thanks to Rose Albert
I agree with you, I had a senior colleague at work who lived well but never had an investment, unfortunately his job ended so he went from living well to surviving with his family.
It made perfect sense, as he said for an investment, the person has to consider the rate of profit versus the rate of loss at least 2% minimum risk and also experience for you to guide and help them.
Reading these comments encourages me alot, I have come across this Mrs Rose Albert many times in review. I would love to communicate with her. Thanks for sharing this 👍

For today This video just satisfied my hunger for knowledge ( Most importantly really attractive voice )
This happened to my buddy eric ones
boy i love this channel.
literally started watching this video for my lunch, what a sales pitch for the sponser.
Wish I could go back to when I hadn’t watched this
WOW THATS FREEKING AMAZING,,I MEAN JELLYFISH ARE BEAUTIFUL!! BTW I LOVE ALL YOUR VIDEOS PLEASE KEEP MAKING THEM ,IVE LEARNED ALOT OF THINGS I DIDNT KNOW!!❤❤❤❤❤
Truly an amazing organism
