- We humans can't give virgin birth because of a struggle in the embryo between genes coming from the mother's side and genes coming from the father's side. This holds true to all mammals. But with simple genetic modifications mice can give virgin birth. But how?

Another article where mice that gave virgin birth were produced. In the initial study by Kono and colleagues the number of mice produced was very small. In this study the methodology was perfected and another imprinted region (Dlk1-Dio3) deleted from the maternal chromosome. This gave a very high success rate. Thus the IGF2 imprinted control region and the imprinted Dlk1-Dio3 region are the only regions that block the parthenogenesis in mice.

Did you know there were mice that were born from a virgin mother? Spread the love and share the channel!
I enjoyed this video. Great information; very intriguing! TFS👍🏾
Super interesting video! Would love to see more about epigenetics.
Glad you liked it!
Wau!! This was the most interesting thing I have watched all week. Thank you, I will share this to my friends :)
Thank you so much! :)
Super interesting! Thanks for the informative video:)
Glad you liked it! :)
Great videos!! Good job!
Thank you!!
The virgin birth, despite its impossible paradoxes, is still very much with us. According to a recent longitudinal study published in the British Medical Journal, there were 45 virgin births reported in the United States between 1995 and 2008. Nearly
We all know those women just lied and they either had an affair or just didn't want their parents knowing they had intercourse with someone.
Where’s your source??
@@ticktockbam it’s more likely they think they are virgins because they didn’t have PIV sex. You can get pregnant without PIV sex just add some semen around the vaginal area.
Say what?
@@ticktockbamI’m not sure about without intercourse, but I have read on pub med about development of an embryo without fertilisation but sperm cell activated the egg without inputting genetic code
R.I.P. to all the innocent mice who died, were murdered, in laboratories for our knowledge, for our and other species' benefit.
While I personally couldn’t do it, I do absolutely see the benefit to the numerous medical breakthroughs they’ve produced.
Wow ...🤩
Was good explanation 😃
More videos please🥺❤️
Question, so when the control epigenerocs are NOT capped, it in suppressive action? And when it is capped, it is in productive action? So the mom’s is in a permanent state of suppression?
Ini luar biasaaa, terima kasih 😮
U should make a new year special video. If you can😊 that would be good right 🤔
Please make videos daily.
When are these epigenetic markers re-coded?
You develop with some male and female epigenetic marked chromosomes, then by the time the chromosomes go into your own gametes, they're only coded as the sex that you are. When does the change happen?
There is no change whatsoever, if is a female the individual will develop a set amount of gametes in a intermediate state from its embrionary state, wich already includes all the genetic information and the epigenetic markings corresponding to it, if the individual is male the gametes will develop later in life during spermatogenesis and it will include a series of chromosomal copies randomized with combination of the different variable genes, however the epigenetic markers will be allocated according to the disposed chrosomal order, this epigenetic marker order will be determined by the sexual differentiation of the individual and it's not recoded, the chromosomes forming your own gametes are not the ones you inherited from your parents but cooies of them and thus they will have the same epigenetic coding according to sexuak differentiation as previously noted, this is an evolutionary mechanism for maximizing variation and survival in binary species.
@@topmoe6802, when a chromosome is copied, is the epigenetics on it copied also?
Can has more videos?
To be fair, the genetics of the embryo has nothing to do with whether the mother is a virgin.
Regardless of the embryo being viable or inviable, the IVF process isn't sex. And I don't think virginal status affects whether or not implatation from IVF will work.
This. I felt the term "virgin birth" was sort of misleading... Otherwise informative video
Goddam you are stupid, the term virgin is used to denote the lack of fertilization wich can only come from sexual gametes mixing, an unfertilized female is thus denoted as a virgin female, since fertilization usually comes from sexual exchange the term is also used for females who have not partaked in sexual intercourse, when the female egg is fertilized the female is not a virgin anymore, since by definition it has been fertilized, and the sexual exchange has taken place.
So what you are saying is that, it is possible for a female virgin birth but not probable? What is the chance of it ever happening in modern times?
Technically only one Virgin birth has occurred but ......
My teacher said there was a vigin berth, but the baby died in the seventh month. Is that right?
I think the baby wernt alive in the first place. Even when you read the bible. It says God FORMED Man from the dust of the Ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breathe of LIFE. It didn't say he brought a living man from the groin nd. Likewise maybe a female could potentially create the FORM of a human by herself but the male puts the life in her. That's what I believe anyway since researching this because it makes no sense if you logically think about it. In order for an apple tree to grow. You need an apple seed to have fallen into the ground. The ground doesn't just miraculously bring up and apple tree by itself.
Its actually a child alive from virgin birth

this was the original human state: parthenogenesis! bartolin glands originally produced sperm, for self seeding. an ex partner of mine, she had real issues with her glands.
Could you make an embryo from two different men or women in humans and have the fetus develop normally?
This is very interesting as it would make it possible for any two individuals to be parents together, with none of the dangers of combining the dna of relatives or oneself (cloning). Of course, it also eliminates the need for men entirely--until men come up with a working artificial womb, anyway. Perhaps that would mean men could grow their own women and no longer need the natural kind. War of the sexes might not be just a phrase, then. Or maybe everyone would just create their ideal mate themselves, once they were of age, with all the genetic features they prefer, and everyone could get along fine with no dating or other social contact necessary.
Lcd Drmr Lcd Drmr Lcd Drmr Lcd Drmr well I was more thinking along the lines of same sex couples who wanted biological children. But woah you really ran with that scenario didn’t you. 😂
Well people have more uses then reproduction. I highly doubt that this would fuel any tension towards the sexes. If the sexes wanted they could already live very seperate lives and only interact to mate then divvy up the children by sex.
I think their is a psychological need for most people to develop healthy relationships between both sexes so I wouldn’t worry about that. Also I believe most people are not that childish or immature and they can get along fine with the opposing sex.
Also I hope growing people in test tubes to suit their own needs never becomes a thing because ethically that’s just evil. Also would require more genetic manipulation then what was talked about on here.
What your writing about would make a fun and interesting Sci-Fi horror though.
I gather from the video it wouldn't just be as simple as putting the chromosomes together since the epigenetic markers would mess up the development. But maybe if one was a mutant like the mouse example, or if a way to change the epigenetic markers was developed it might be possible.
There must be some natural prosess that recodes the epigenetic markers: an individual starts with a set of chromosomes coded female from their mother and a set of chromosomes coded male from their father, but when they release their own gamete, all of those chromosomes are coded with that individual's sex.
Maybe we could just copy whatever that process is.
My suspicion is that, since cloning is possible, adult cells still have the male and female marked chromosomes, - and it is some process in the production of gametes that recodes them.
Highly unlikely, there is a lot of other genes with epigenetic markers coding a wide variety of different biological patterns and to be able to disable all of them in the parental individual will be hard and maybe even unethical to begin with, aside from that there is the issue of variability as a means of survival humans evolved as a binary species for a very good evolutionary reason and sadly we can not revert evolution.
@@LcdDrmr not how it'll work actually, the replication of the same gene pool will degrade the ability of the offspring individuals to survive given the lack of variability as a means of adaptation, also the genetic shuffle of genes between maternal and paternal individuals plays a key role in things like hystocompatibility wich controls inmunity, if the same pool of genes is recicled the resulting individuals will have less competent inmune sistems compared to the parent given the same ammount of possible genetical potential but without the ability for this genes to be expressed as a result of environmental factors, furthermore some genetical traits are offseted by interactions between gene pairings that will not be possible in this scenario, like genes controlling blood clotting or t cell differentiation wich ate ported from both parental donors and randomly selected for the offspring, that's a great part of why humans and rats as a species are so successful.
This explains the Virgin Mary story lol the one shot chance.
I was thinking the same too! Biblically accurate stuff lol
What about armadillos?
Is it pronounced MA-TRO-NOHL or MAH-TER-NAHL?
PA-TRO-NOHL or PAH-TER-NAHL?
Were the baby mice all female?
Yeah could have been
Wouldn’t artificial insemination work in virgins?
Yes u can my freind of 15 had triplets and she hates guys soo that means
😊
You can do parthenogenesis but you cannot do it anymore because of the men chromosomes
No humans have never had the ability to do parthenogenesis
Can you explain: how did women do it, genetically?
Oru pakka kadhai
The last part🤣😜😜
😄
And they say Mary was a Virgin....
Women def have but leave it to the yt man
When??
🤔
😊🙂
😊
Sure you can!
I am here because I know someone is lying.
You were afraid to feature black jesus
Mary .... lied bigtime oops!
Funny pronunciation
Oh shit, wait for the Christians coming in.
jesus
And?
@@qwertz666aye, jesus said wassup
@@alulim7 Yeah Mary gave birth to him. But sorry virgin birth is not possible. Because basic biology... You need egg and sperm.
@@qwertz666 you think god has sperm?
@@alulim7 It's already debatable if God or Gods even exists. This is basic biology...Mammal's egg cell usually won't divide until it receives a signal from the sperm. Most mammalian eggs have only half the number of chromosomes necessary for development. If there isn't any sperm, the embryo will end up with only half the DNA it needs to survive.
I'm God in Heaven
Possible
Virgin birth is possible in human
Dr dilbert Blair explains it my friend!!
No virgin birth isnt possible
@@ameirmohammed192 I’ve never heard him explain it; he asserts it.
Did he break it down genetically and could you provide that link?
Thank you!
@@DNew no he didn't explain it genetically! But the black woman lecture explains alot..🤔
Hi @@ameirmohammed192, thanks for your response. I hear the black women lecture *asserting* a lot, but it doesn’t *explain* its claims; specifically that black women (so, female humans) reproduced without men.
This is a *genetic* claim, but it’s fascinating that it’s never explained *genetically* .
The question is *HOW* (genetically speaking) did this happen?
Confess your sins to Mouse Jesus. Mouse Jesus died for your sins so that you might be saved, and smite the Lord of evil: Cat Devil and all his cat minions.
