- We made a meat-leaf. What more really needs to be said? Well it's also a demonstration of the cutting edge of regenerative medicine, and bioengineering. And maybe the first stop on the road to meat-robots.

This man is basically the biology version of Nilered and I'm all for it
With less failed attempts 😂 at least from what's being shown in videos
@@MagicalKidImagine he has a "failed attempt" while making a virus and makes the next pandemic lmfao
He is much more than Nilered. Nilered's experiments are something chemists have been doing for decades. This man over here is bringing cutting edge investigation to his own lab and youtube! Pretty insane.
His alcohol aging video had him sharing a bunch of drinks with Nile and Nile just says "They all taste the same".
They're IRL friends so that's probably not an accident that they have similarities
I still want you to take a meat base, decellularize it, and give it plant based cells. I want to see a plant monster.
so a plant based heart
see if you can give humans photosynthesis

If you want a vegetable I can give you my braindead mother in law
@@jamescheddar4896 i don't think you could live off of water and the sun, concerning the efficiency of photosynthesis...
I work in a lab. My work is mostly computational but I've done plenty of cell culture work as well. The fact that youre able to afford this is very impressive.
How expensive do you think it would be to do this process once? Ballpark
@@Ton12extremely. Need for extremely sterile conditions and components like FBS make it very expensive.
Ballpark? If you had no equipment or facility, I'm assuming a minimum investment of at least $100,000 USD@@Ton12
meat leaf
I also work in a lab, and I wondering if he has a lab or something, because how would he have all this 😭
You're unnervingly close to making the mythology of homunculus a reality, which is in turn a great first step to making mad science Pokemon. Keep going, I wanna see meat monsters because I have problems and meat monsters are the solution.
The picatrix would be a fun read for you
When the man made horrors are within comprehension! 😊👍
May I point out that he used "occult philosophy" as a text book for this project😂? 7:43 .
We need a venn diagram of man made, horrors, and within comprehension
@@heavencanceller1863 sounds like something xkcd would do.
Great comment.
When will they become beyond our comprehension? Will it be AI or will be be walking meat leaves?
The fact that the end goal of this series is "create a novel organism like Frankenstein without the lightning" is simultaneously concerning and amazing.
man made horrors
"When humans play gods, it ends in total dismay and destruction, and so we are playing gods now." Can't remember who said that, but i totally agree with that quote.
@@Cyanfox3006 nah, if it's fun it was worth it. In any case, the high adaptability of the human species is rooted in our inclination to play god, as we can adapt the environment to serve us.
The creature from the original telling of Frankenstein wasn’t brought to life by lightning, the lightning thing came from how Victor was inspired to start learning alchemy because he saw a tree get obliterated by lightning (sorry, I’m not intentionally being a book snob, that’s just one of my favorite useless facts)
@@gemma7438that's actually a cool fact! I didn't knew that
I loved the concept of 100% meat based spinach salad selling right in front a 100% plant based meat shop 😂😂😂😂😂
I want to see that SO bad!!
Please dont stop this series i want to see veggie fish!
same lol.
I love how science goes from things like "how does the universe move" to "we're growing a meat leaf"
Tbf, the meat leaf is actually a lot more useful for humanity than trying to understand how dark matter works.
@@lambda653well the thing is that all of science is useless out of context I mean right now it may seem that this only fills useless textbooks but maybe one day we'll find a way to revolutionize travel or find alien civilizations
First learn how this stuff works, then do stuff with it
@@lambda653 understanding how dark matter and energy works could in the far future lead to HUGE innovations in travel, energy generation and stuff we can't even imagine yet
@NexusLore Probably not though. All of those potential discoveries fall under black swan events, which means something fundamental about our understanding of physics completely changes. That's definitely not impossible, but considering how accurate our current theories are, and just how many resources we've already put into to find every possible potential application of every single physics theory, at this point we're pretty sure that if there is a use, it will be so advanced and complicated that we'll never see it come into fruition within the next century. This is not the case with many other fields of science like molecular biology or neuroscience. We're pretty certain that there are world changing advancements waiting to be made in those fields within the next 100 years. Like curing blindness or permanent paralysis. Obviously, there could still be some hookup about human biology that would completely stall our progress in curing blindness, but the difference is that our current scientific knowledge of physics suggests that any practical use for dark matter is completely useless and unfeasible, while our current scientific understanding of biology suggests that it is completely physically feasible to repair or replace eyeballs.
meat leaf, meat based robot, and vegetable fish are word combinations i never thought i would hear
Meat salad
@@Zamu273Meat salad
imagine a pork mango
Fish IS a vegetable.
-Ron Swanson
You just haven't read enough wh40k lore
So we noticed something very similar when we 3D printed scaffolds from plant based materials and seeded them with fibroblasts....is that the cells were most aligned and viable around the edges and ridges. One of the reasons this could be is that ECM mechanical properties play a crucial role in determining cell orientation and so mechanical properties on the ridges are highest hence fibroblasts will more likely align and grow there most. Interesting work in this video...Our lab works on tissue engineering using 3D printing and I am open to connect
Shots fired at Nile Red, My man's a Savage.
Finally, we've had vegetarian versions of meat dishes for years now. It's about time we got a meat version of a vegetarian thing lol

A small population of humans are transgender. Then there have been these jokes about transveganism. In that vein, would these be called.. transplants?
I think popeyes once made a carrot shaped sausage, they called it the "marrot"
What kindof of dish is “leaf”
How does a meat leaf salad sound?
I love how this guy actually takes the time to explain everything hes doing so that people who dont know the technical jargon can actually follow along
Thanks to these *clear* instructions, I was able to make a beating heart!.... I hate it
Precisely my thoughts. It's hard enough to know all this science, maintain a lab and work in it. The fact that they manage to film everything and explain all the processes with transparence (pun intended) is outstanding!!
This is how vita carnis universe began...

As a former biomedical engineer who studied tissue engineering and biomaterials, I really like how you simplified the communication surrounding what each of the compounds you were using were for. HBSS, DMEM, FBS...
It's amazing what academics take for granted with knowledge of what they think are "basic" things that are quite literally so fundamentally important.

Surprise sonny's edge mention got me remembering how much i loooove that short!!!
the clear, decellularized leaves look so cool, like jellyfish
What seems real cool about this, is that, when both the technology of 3d printing gets advanced enough, we could literally print scaffolding and then inject cells into said scaffolding and make our own transplants.
there’s literally the goal dude, catch up
Would this mean that we could never run out of meat to use or eat?
@@growlie2676 We are working on something different for that. (Selective cloning.) Meaning we only grow the parts of the animal we want to eat and it was never a thinking creature.

I was thinking the same thing.

You’re an absolute madman… basically, an evil genius! A freaking love this.
Several years ago i found this channel during my freshman year, let's just say i was mesmerized by you and the field of bioengineering. And now i have been officially accepted to the one and only Bioengineering program in my country at the best university in my country. You and this channel is very inspiring to me and kept me going on studying my hardest to do stuff like these. Keep doing what you do man, this channel is such a blessing to me.
I’m happy for you congrats
The decellularization process really puts in a new meaning to cleaning your veggies before you eat em
They remainder is pretty much nutritionally useless to humans though. Well it would work as a fibre supplement as cellulose is an indigestible sugar but everything of nutritional value is gone.
hah it looks like techno blades remains lmao
@@phlegmony tf
Similar can be done with skin cells on deceullarized cartilage medium for specific types of skin grafts. Some dont even use the cartilage medium and just let the skin form sheets for the skin graft.
I love your work! Keep going! ❤❤❤
The fact you own occult philosophical texts and showcased them in this really makes me believe you embrace how close to dark magic this is becoming atleast aesthetically and I really respect that
Science in my opinion is just fully understood dark magic, it's so fucking bizarre sometimes
@@avokka Science is looking real hard at things and (usually metaphorically) trowing rocks at them to see what happens. By definition "meddling with the unknown". The thing most wrong with your comment is the "fully understood" part.

Amazing how educational and funny this is
Hi there, great video!
I am from the group that originally decellularized spinach leaves a few years ago. Most of my colleagues have moved to lab-grown meat and cell agriculture, but I am still focused on biomedical applications.
I am sure you would love my current project, let's talk about it in private!
PS: this month I will finally get to meet Dr. Pelling, the guy that carved ears out of apples!
He may have a business email on his TH-cam page if this comment doesn’t get his attention.
Hi, are you referring to the crossing kingdoms paper (Gershlak et al. 2016)? This was a main paper for a research project we did in my Master's Course and we tried the technique on apples. Nice work.
@@lukasduday8855 Yes, but I joined in 2020 and completely took over the biomedical applications when the other members moved to cellular agriculture. Now we have a funded grant for a skin graft and I am collecting preliminary data for small diameter vascular grafts.
Poor apple
I don't know if you're serious or not. It's hard to tell these days. If you are, how about doing the human race a favor. Find a place as far away from everyone else as possible, and just stay there. None of this kind of thing is going to end well. It's gone too far already.
I feel like you could make a lot of art out of this. Especially with the bone cells. You could turn so many things into a pristine, hard, white 'sculpt.'
Bone sculptures are already a thing. Chrizelephantine and carved bone been known since ancient greece.

I'm so glad you explained that these are a stepping stone to tailored organ transplants. That's the direction this research needs to go.
There's also the branch of lab-grown meat as food, i.e. steak that tastes, feels and essentially is real, normal meat but without having to harm animals
And just considering that aspect from a climate-perspective seems pretty cool too
No.

The compilation of liquid spraying everywhere and him swearing profusely absolutely made my day
You should try it with seeds. Tobacco seeds are really small.
In order to make the plant develop, additional stem cells may be nessessary
wooooah. I was both blown away and horrified by this. really neat stuff but scary conceptually.
When one of my professors was making the rounds with his spinach leaf heart (Glenn Gaudette, he's now at Boston U but this was when he was at WPI), i started going through different leaf types in my head and what leaves might be best for them as a thought exercise. Incidentally, i think Sage would be useful for building replacement skin, and strong, unidirectionally fibrous leaves (a palm frond, just as an example) may be good for cardiac tissue. Neat stuff!
Maybe banana leaf could be useful for that
Let me answer on that, since I am currently working on it.
Gaudette did not take in consideration the need for redundancy of the venation pattern in order to achieve functional vascularization. Also, they did not look into the inner structure of the vessels, which makes re-endothelialization unlikely for spinach leaves. Serkan Dikici briefly noted this limitation in a paper in 2019.
However, there are plants that are better suited (e.g. lemons, who are naturally redundant). If you open a botanical atlas, you will find plenty of good candidates (mostly from Indonesia)!
@@diegoolivares1081 THAT WAS ONE OF MY FAVORITE ONES, I COULDN'T REMEMBER IT WHEN I WAS Typing THE COMMENT! Closest i could think is a palm frond 🤣🤣🤣. Bananas would be excellent because they're an extremely wasteful crop. The plant the berries grow from lasts only one season. That's a healthy supply of banana leaves right there (save those used for culinary purposes)
@@gmen412 i was wondering about how to deal with the open circulatory system of plants. I wondered if you could perhaps refresh the edges and bond them together somehow if you might get functional capillaries at least (I don't even wanna think about venous valves tbh). My expertise is bionics, however, not tissue engineering. I only have a working knowledge of the processes and concepts, but very little beyond that.
@@mervynlarrier9424 i don't really know anything about this topic, but my uneducated guest is here anyway. Maybe it would be effective scraping one of the sides and then connect it to the expose tissue? So the body could start connecting the blood vessels by itself. I don't know if the skin graft would rott thou
Scientifically accurate transmutation! Loved it
Scientifically accurate transmutation is just Nuclear Fission/Fusion.

@@MauroTammI prefer the spinach monkey brains
Strike that....reverse it.
I would say since it's a 50/50 hybrid (scaffold plus contents) it is at the same also meat made out of a leaf. The meat was what was added, the leaf was already there as a scaffold...
You can do that yourself by just… eating a leaf

I got a Vegetarian Butcher ad before this.
Polar opposites
A mesh basket would help with moving delicate items between solutions. If it hangs with space below you can even use a slow magnetic stirer underneath.
would the magnetic stirer crumple the leaf? Great suggestion tho

this channel is so cool, so glad I discovered it! Also I'm currently a bio major and I feel like the base level of biology knowledge you need for this stuff is literally insane. They do a great job of simplifying it but to even read the research papers to find out how to do this is incredible, props to y'all.
I really hope this becomes used in medicine soon, it's such a game changer.

Yes, I’ve also read field reports involving trackers talking about how most animals in the wild die in infinitely more horrible ways than our instant death machines in factories.
Idk how that’s relevant to my point about the sustainability of growing meat tho. I know it’s not there yet and almost getting eaten by corporations atm, but I have a better idea that’ll piss more people off but work much better- if we grew genetically augmented, brain dead livestock so when we kill them there’s no suffering we wouldn’t have to worry about the texture or quality of anything.

imagine using giant leaves to create giant skin grafts
this is talked about in ssp circles
it's always a cool idea considering that there are procedures that wrap the affected area of the skin with fish scale for proliferation. So many things to consider, I just thought it was funny that it comes full circle, from the vegetable fish theory to the skin graft.

Oh, using the bone cells to fill up plant scaffold sounds super cool and artsy. I could easily see that being used as building decor - like those bone chapels in Europe.
I wonder, if you could produce this way a cheaper cruelty free versions of the elephant tusk, if the technology progresses enough to produce bigger objects.
Should be pretty easy in theory. Get cells that produce mammal teeth, get it growing with enough materials to build the tusk and set it up into mold to form the shape. It may not have durable outer shell of emal, but producing tusk that is entirely of dentine should be possible, just need to break the mold for each and any contamination might be a issue, while taking long time, but it should be possible.
Finally, using bone blocks in Minecraft is now known as *real-life*
Decellurize a banana, colonize it with elephant tooth cells, and you should have a nice small scale experiment
Hehehe bone furniture Is getting clóser to reality for the average person
I just love the idea of "fake" vegetables and fruits made from meat just to counter all the fake meat products.
