andares | Is there any work on a protocol for reduced-risk DIY gene therapy? | 00:03 |
---|---|---|
andares | I was thinking something along the lines of: try it in vitro on a selection of tissues from biopsy, some sort of quality control to make sure no RNA or DNA targets that aren't intended are in there.. | 00:05 |

kuudes | ah, kanzure you may like it that finland integrated the maternal blood test for chromosome anomalies into the public healthcare may this year. | 15:14 |
kuudes | it is only done if there are risk factors from the age, ultrasound and other factors, but it is offered before needle biopsy to rule out most false positives as needle biopsy has some 1% of rate for termination of pregnancy | 15:15 |
kanzure | fetal needle biopsy has 1% termination rate?? | 15:16 |
kuudes | somewhere around that iirc | 15:19 |
kuudes | that is why it is not done very often | 15:19 |
kuudes | and that is why the blood test is really useful | 15:19 |
kanzure | perhaps plugging the hole you create during biopsy would prevent the 1% termination | 15:19 |
kanzure | stick in some glue or something | 15:20 |
kuudes | yeah, maybe. | 15:20 |
drethelin | hah | 15:20 |
kuudes | so before it was 1. calculate the risk factors from age and ses questionnaire and the assessment of the ultrasound 2. if there was risk level higher than some level, propose needle biopsy -> 1. 2. offer blood test 3. if blood test not negative, offer needle biopsy | 15:21 |
kuudes | so it takes some half or more of the needle biopsies away | 15:22 |
kuudes | I suppose it may be cost effective even in considering the amount of raw work and salaries, though maybe not. | 15:23 |

kanzure | docl: yes gene therapy for cryonics-adaptation is a possibility, if cryonics-adaptation can be demonstrated somewhere first. | 19:16 |
kanzure | however, i am a little hesitant to promise people that this would work | 19:17 |
kanzure | i am willing to claim cryonics-adaptation has high chance of working, but cryonics-adaptation plus gene therapy working for existing adults? seems much more difficult. | 19:17 |
kanzure | for example, cryonics-adaptations might require biochemistry or physiology that is incompatible with an adult's existing physiology | 19:18 |
kanzure | i also suspect that there will be low survival rates and for those who do "survive" will initially experience a lot of problems with healing after that sort of extreme trauma | 19:26 |
kanzure | .. which is okay. | 19:28 |
kanzure | docl: it occurs to me that you may not have seen the version of that idea that involves selective breeding.... | 19:38 |
kanzure | rational design of cryoprotectant synthesis is a good dea, although i think that selective breeding will be necessary to smooth out the rough spots in an organism like the mouse | 19:38 |
kanzure | *good idea | 19:38 |
-!- atomical [~atomical@209.153.22.182] has quit [Quit: My Mac has gone to sleep. ZZZzzz…] | 19:45 | |
docl | Yeah, I saw that. It just seems like selective breeding would be too slow, even in mice, at least for deep cryo. If you could splice in some e. Coli genes that confer dessication resistance, it might be another story though. | 19:50 |
kanzure | what do you consider too slow vs. too fast? for reference | 19:51 |
docl | Hmm. more than a few decades is too slow. | 19:53 |
kanzure | i think that selective breeding can get results in <20 years | 19:53 |
kanzure | i also think that by increasing the size of the population of mice you are breeding, you decrease the total number of generations required | 19:54 |
kanzure | also you have to include a mutagenesis mechanism to increase the mutation rate | 19:54 |
kanzure | you can jack up mutation really really high everywhere | 19:54 |
kanzure | which also helps things happen in that 20 year window | 19:54 |
kanzure | i am thinking of throwing a few million mice at this problem | 19:54 |

kanzure | furthermore, you don't need whole-animal survival first. select first for higher cell survival rates, then for whichever organ seems most close to survival, then for multiple organs, then finally whole-animal. of course, if there are intermediate promising whole-animal results then go for it. | 19:56 |
