Cells of Human-Mouse Chimera Are 4% Human
May 20th, 2020Via: Popular Mechanics:
Scientists at the University at Buffalo and the Roswell Park Cancer Institute have bred a new form of human-mouse chimera with the highest incidence of human cells ever recorded. Chimeras are organisms made up of a mixture of genetically different tissues—in this case, mouse cells and human stem cells.
Two weeks after the researchers injected human stem cells into the developing mouse embryos, one of the newborn mice exhibited 4 percent human cells…
I wonder how would this affect virus transfer between species? This is creepy on so many levels.
Some people estimate our viral load to exceed 370 trillion. Our microbiome contains all manner of viruses along with the other microbes and they are also found, albeit in far smaller numbers in other parts of our body, including our brain. Western medicine tends to view all microbes as enemies that need to be eliminated when in reality they understand next to nothing about them, how they interact with us and what services they provide. Sure, in a sane world this kind of activity would be prohibited but we have not lived in a sane world for a very, very long time.
