We’re Not That Far From Being Able to Grow Human Bones in a Lab
www.smithsonian...
“‘Grow your own bone’ might not sound like much of a business slogan, since even children do just that naturally. But EpiBone, a two-year-old company based in Harlem, New York, has adopted the slogan because it sees a big opportunity: Surgeons perform about a million bone grafts in the United States each year, either with the patient’s own bone tissue, necessitating two surgeries, or with synthetic or donated material, which a patient’s body sometimes rejects.”
3D-Printed 'HyperElastic Bone' Could Quickly Mend Breaks
www.seeker.com...
“A cheap and easy to make synthetic bone material has been shown to stimulate new bone growth when implanted in the spines of rats and a monkey's skull, researchers said. Human trials using the biomaterial, called Hyper-Elastic Bone (HB), could begin in the next five years, according to the research team from Northwestern University.”
Bone Growth
www.bbc.co.uk/s...
“The skeleton of a newborn baby is made up of more than 300 parts, most of which are made of cartilage. Over time, most of this cartilage turns into bone, in a process called ossification. As the baby grows, some of its bones fuse together to form bigger bones.”

the fourth method was used on me after i had a terrible accident. they took out some bone out of that iliac crest of mine, the left side... about the volume of a tablespoon... then they grafted it to two of my left hand fingers which were completely shattered due to the accident. took about 2-3 months of bed rest but was worth it. my iliac crest grew on its own and is good as new now.
Siddhant Agarwal Congrats dude!
Did that to my destroyed clavicle as well. Had 8 screws with a plate which broke, suggested this and am better off, although if I am to bump that part anywhere (a year after) still can see the stars. Healing iliac crest was way more painful than healing clavicle.
Andrius Bruzas may god give you the power to heal as soon as possible... it did not happen with me, mine recovered in lest than 3 months. take care brother
does that mean i can grow taller
Looking for more about buddy? Is it really possible?
Yes. There are surgeries for that.
Half and half is not my best freind there’s a significant risk bro
Tell me
maybe
I hope teeth are next!!
Manny Manny
teeth are bones so they are coming at the same time
Manny Manny I could switch out a tooth or 2.
I wonder how strong a Human with bones made of the same thing teeth are would be...
DanteLeLoyal that's an idea.
DanteLeLoyal hard body
"Why are we not funding this?!" ~Peter Griffin
I hope we can grow taller
Me too... but not sure of in our lifetime...
yeah hopefully soon
There's a surgery that can do that
I had that done to my ankle during a second surgery. I had a fracture that was not healing. Automatically I could feel it working and now my ankle works better than ever because of the stem cells I had injectioned during surgery
When I can regrow my missing teeth, then I'll be impressed.
i cant remember who, i think seeker or discovery did a piece on that a couple of months ago.
some college kid did it with a 3d printer
need to return with the source latter
just need to put shark dna into yours then abra kadabra! Infinite Teeth!
Salman Shaikh That's actually a good idea I might try that. But I need a shark and a CRISPR kit to start
1stPCFerret lizards are the answer
This. This is more of what I want from this channel. Actual people telling us about scientific breakhroughs with their actual faces and personalities rather than a voice-over or just music playing...more of this.
does that mean stem cells will help blind people gain their Vision back and help deaf people gain their hearing back?
adrian ortiz depends on whether you were born blind or injured.we can fix injured or lost eyes. but being born blind is sometimes caused by genetics. their own stem cells likely could not help unless it was an epigenetic mechanism
adrian ortiz if born blind and/or deaf, there's nothing you can do but to adapt to it. If you somehow lost your vision or hearing at some point in your life, however, then stem cells can come to your rescue.
Not really. I mean not yet...First we have to wait for a successful eye transplant but is almost impossible doe to the insane complexity of nerve system of the eyes.
Actually, it's not that hard now. We have been doing the wrong tech. Recently, we have started reconnecting severed spinal cords of para/quadriplegic patients. So eyes are the next step. Instead of trying to connect them. We inject stem cells and allow them to set up their own pathways. The spinal cord thing was middle of last year.
That's fascinating. Thank you guys for the responses. I was a bit confused.
There is a 4th option, synthetic bone graft. I had one implanted several years ago to repair a hole in my tibial plateau. The graft is gradually resorbed and replace by one's own newly generated bone tissue.
I can't wait to see what life is like when I am 40.
Depends on how old you are now (Mona Lisa suggested: 10) ;-)
I can tell you that after retiring early life becomes incredibly good. Better than ever before.
You will see this profile picture very often
But now with our knowledge it will become an even bigger leap.
You will see this profile picture very often That's not the scale because the rate that technology advances is speeding up so life in 30 years will be much more different than 30 years ago
The Law by 40 there will be robots and superhumans and us regular folks will just be waiting to die so the new races can take over.
BB Bailey By that time there will be nanobots that create things from atoms so it will basically be free to upgrade yourself so you won't have to die. It will be common to upgrade to superhuman and probably by 2050 you will be able to upload your consciousness to a robotic body for almost free
So can we grow taller using this?
What did you expect, Pumpkin Juice?
I love you
Alex Christian I love you😘😍
Sanugon no lemon juice.
the harry potter reference just shows how science is basically magic. the wonders that science has/have/and will give us is amazing.
Can't wait for this to be used to make us taller
Not sure this will be affordable in our lifetime though......
yes! this may happen very soon, you never know...
Can it increase height
Salute to ultimate talented scientists
This shows people why I like this channel.
It's reasons like this that I want to go into this field as a career. There are so much possibility and opportunity with this branch of science that can help so many people.
Hey Seeker News team, I know you've already done lots of videos already on HIV, but could you make a short one on some of the new amazing HIV treatment medications? They have come a long way in the last 10 years and have some pretty interesting ways to stop viral replication. More people need to be aware of HIV undetectable people as well to stop the ever present stigma of HIV/AIDs patients and how they spread. You guys are amazing, love the videos, keep it up!
Amy is awesome.
Could steam cell replace plastic surgery?
I don't think people realise how much of a game changer this could be.
she's so endearing
O.O amazing what science is accomplishing.
what about height? what science discovery can make me taller?
I have had bone taken from my hip to replace bone in my jaw! It was very very painful and took a long time to heal. I also have a titanium plate in my jaw as well. This is fantastic news for the future!!
All the links in the description are about cancer treatment. I want to read more about THIS topic.
Seeker is the best in representing contents
Seeker... I miss your style of videos on Seeker Daily. Sinced it has changed to Now This the stories aren't explored like before!! Bring back Seeker Daily please!!!
The scaffold will still take time to fully repair so no quick fix yet unfortunately ;)
Amazing i get this as first recommended video after a daunting day in the lab! Doing my PhD on this exactly.
If coral reef is grownable then our bone can be built too but it need a molding and accelerated time space MRI and thermokibetic that filling calcium to grow
I wouldn't take more risks, but it's pretty awesome that it will be possible to grow bones. And I hear growing organs and other tissue is coming too.
lab grown bones is cool! +1 for science
Since Seeker has done an episode about stem cell based bone replacement, how about one on gene editing technology like CRISPER?
I had to undergo foot bone surgery at a young age ,and they had to do the fourth option on me ,aka,take bone from below my knee and transplant it into my foot....just felt like saying that
when are scientist going to make dogs live to the average age of 40?
Meme Machine Yell at your local breeders. We've spent hundreds of years breeding for look, build, drive, etc but most have not been breeding for longevity.
Meme Machine When Cats stop taking over and controlling us!!!!!!!!!
+Syed -- yeah! I hate cats.
I don't trust them, they kill me (allergy), and they shouldn't be on earth (well, at least not with humans).
+Meme -- About the same time they make humans live to 200
ozdergecko No , I love them and they love me .......No , I love them and they love me.......No , I love them and they love me ....... HELP ME!!!!!!!!!!!
Dear Seeker,
Hemophilia Day is coming up on April 17th, it would be nice if you guys would make a video for it.
Can I get embryonic stem cell treatment anywhere in the U.S? Or world?
i guy in Sweden did something like this on people with lung cancer but all of them died even though the cancer cells where gone
so if this is possible now what about genes? Can we turn on genes on and off in our bodies? what about growing taller if we can get new bones???? I want to be 6'3
I hope to bro I hope so
Good nutrition can actually help with that. Crispr might do something with the genes. But that is kinda useless. Because we are already getting taller
How long tell I get Wolverine bone claws?
Emmanuel Morris First you need to be a mutant that has claws on his hands. Then has the ability to heal your wounds quickly with a good dosage of healing factor. Finally we need adamantium to spray on your bones. So... you'll probably be dead before any of this ever becomes a reality unless science advances faster than it is now. Or magic. You could try that...:/
We can rebuild them better, FASTER, *STRONGER*!
Megalus Doomslayer. how dear please explain.i really worry about my 5 year kids height??
this might mean we can replace prosthetic limbs with actual lab-grown arms and legs. This is great!
that would be great for treating bone defects
1:17 that's not 3d printing. it's milling
She looks so excited and happy about it XD
never thought about that but if I don't have to worry about breaking my bones I'll be doing some crazy shit
Would stem cells be able to regenerate damaged nerves? I.e. curing chronic pain and inflammation?
And just a question, when you are talking about how as of now, there are only these options of growing human bones, are you strictly talking in the context of the US, do you also speak for European countries? Germany? Sweden? Poland? Latvia? etc. Because I would really love to know and not have confusion.
My concern is how they plan on reattaching ligaments and tendons to reattach muscles.
Sure is nice to have all these medical breakthroughs.
Sure sucks that nobody who earns their money honestly can afford any of it.
RIP
please do a video our Autoimmune Diseases! I have them & I would love others to be aware of how autoimmune diseases are. A lot about autoimmunity is still unknown but would be a good video!
over*
I wonder how close they are to growing pancreas's for type one diabetics?
wow this is ground breaking
This is so cool! can't wait till we use them for other things!
Thats why we need more research funds for stemcells. Growing organs and stuff will be the norm.
If the first year of clinical engineering would not be completely unpleasent I would have tried that to get a Master degree in Biomedical engineering. I do not regret to study chemistry in the end. Cool stuff anyway this bone thing.
even if you grow new bones how wluld you regain the nerves that also got removed ?
would*
Cybord767 Lol They would do some special science shit
You said there are only three options how we can now fix broken bones, but i had option 4. My broken bone where fixed by another bone of myself (a) so 4 options 8-)
Does that include the growth of hyaline cartilage, for joint replacement?
My boy Might Guy can walk now!!!!!
'you need to grow a sack' the future is going to be good for over the top literal pranks.
Hopefully, these lab grown bones won't require you to drink a horrible tasting liquid to work.
batmanfanforever08
why should they?
That was a Harry Potter reference, just like the host made in the video. Haven't you read Harry Potter?
Okay, now I feel guilty. Never read them.
Stefan S you should. You might like them.
batmanfanforever08 I liked it
Finally!
I have osteomalacia. I hope it heals before this comes out, though.
Question is, does it last as normal bone?
There seems to be a list of benefits for using stem cells, but how come the topic isn't spoken upon as often as it should be?
they should test this with finger bones because they are small and accessible and there is alot of them
Very cool, game changing.
Where can I place my order!
In an accident, I got fractured in my skull.
After the operation, there will be some empty bone space in the skull.
I want to Epi bone ( stem cells) for my skull
Please give me hospital information.Do you do this kind of treatment?
Pardon my stupidity in asking, but is this discovery a step towards potentially being able to create a sort of genetic trait that can control bone regeneration? I know I sound dumb asking this, but I was wondering because it would be really efficient(plus extremely cool) if we were able to personally repair our own bodies at a faster rate than what we do now.
makes you wonder what scafolding is present for normal tissue growth? if there was nothing in the body like that then cells would just grow like blobs.
what companies are leading this research?
1:15 IS THAT SOLIDWORKS??? hahaha awesome!
When is it going to start?
I heard of a material here a while back that bone grows in and take over and that material dissolve away. What ever happen to that?
is it true that one certain rib regrows ?
I wouldn't just jump of things, since maybe bones are renewable, instantaneous death isn't.
and well I'll still be doing extreme sports, with the right safety precautions of course, but I do that already..I have no irrational fears.
I've never broken a bone.
But how do we put the full grown bones without them having already produced blood??
can stem cells grow height after 30?
Yes! Let's use this to fix my bad eyes!
they can do it, they just dont want you to know its already fucking possible...
I have a severe chest wall deformity. Will this make it possible to reconstruct my chest wall by growing my ribs instead of titanium implants
alneur ?
yup.
Mary Shelly is the author you were thinking of.
Black Window is not dead.
She just changed her career.
HELL YEAH SCIENCE
also gave us chemical and nuclear weapons! so, you might want a somewhat more thoughtful position!
Can I regrow my nose?
you all keep talking about the wonders of stem cells... can someone actually start providing these services???
*Mention 3D printing, actually shows CNC mill.*
So I have serverian bone syst, I'm going to have a biopsy on the 21fst, so what would they do to my left arm?
I want a lab grown thigh of mine so that I can eat it with my favorite sauce
This gets me thinking what if we used this to theoretically create an entire new human like a clone
How does the human body know how to heal to the exact state as it was before an injury?
Steinar Jakobsen because before the injury your body grew on it's own already. It mainly follows the code in your DNA, your body has lots of copies of DNA, DNA to cells or the human body, is like lines of code to a computer. So if a bone breaks, the body grows it back the same way it was before, because that's how it grew in the first place, using that same part of stored DNA. Hope that helps explain a little :)
Closer to immortality!!!!
Does the 3D printed scaffolding remain as part of the bone itself, or is it somehow broken down or removed? What material is the 3D scaffolding made from? I’m an undergraduate trying to specifically dedicate my life to researching tissue engineering so it would be much appreciated if someone could clear this up for me :)
so i can literly have to break a bone and live almost forever?! that's amazing!
Does that mean I can cut my arm now?
Explicit Tech YES
Explicit Tech And you won't be needing to attach your old arm because your body will regenerate yourself a new arm after applying stem cells ! :D. jk Now just imagine if that was possible? lmao even aliens would be jealous of our tech.
I've got a bit of bone nercosis going on, so this will help if that's possible. I don't want arthritis.
Did this used to be DNews?
Yeah.
Some sections of this video are almost word for word from the Ted talk video 2 years before yet I see no source cited
