Are those cells happy or not?

From the dust, we pulled out bacterial cells, broke them open, and compared their gene sequences.

I'm saving you some brain activity, because you don't need to use your hair detector cells.

You should use those cells to think carefully about this game.

And their diagnosis was this: They said, "You have two rare kidney diseases that are going to actually destroy your kidneys eventually, you have cancer-like cells in your immune system that we need to start treatment right away, and you'll never be eligible for a kidney transplant, and you're not likely to live more than two or three years."

You know, I have a lot of cocky freshmen at MIT, so I tell them, "Oh, your bodies are really getting stronger and stronger, but in your late twenties and mid-thirties, cells, they die."

And all the components are there which are now in common parlance, in our vocabulary, you know, 30-odd years later: wind energy, recycling, biomass, solar cells.

Now mix this in with camouflaging cells, jet propulsion and a razor-sharp beak, and you have all the makings of a formidable predator.

And insulin resistance, as its name suggests, is when your cells get increasingly resistant to the effect of insulin trying to do its job.

You can think of insulin resistance as the reduced capacity of our cells to partition fuel, as I alluded to a moment ago, taking those calories that we take in and burning some appropriately and storing some appropriately.

And because fat cells are actually missing most of the complex cellular machinery found in other cells, it's probably the safest place to store it.

It's a healthy response to the trauma, all of those immune cells rushing to the site of the injury to salvage cellular debris and prevent the spread of infection to elsewhere in the body.

Now I don't know why, but it might be because, in their case, their cells haven't actually figured out the right thing to do with that excess energy.

Now, by rights, this is kind of like a cloning project, like what produced Dolly, but it's actually very different, because Dolly was live sheep into live sheep cells.

And pretty soon, we had early-stage embryos with hundreds of cells forming those.

We even DNA-tested some of these cells, and the DNA of the extinct frog is in those cells.

We now want this ball of cells to start to gastrulate, to turn in so that it will produce the other tissues.

It will proliferate between the root's cells, eventually penetrating a cell and starting to form a typical arbuscular structure, which will considerably increase the exchange interface between the plant and the mushroom.

It’s lined with hair cells that have specialized components called stereocilia, which move with the vibrations of the cochlear fluid and the basilar membrane.

Exposure to loud noises and some drugs can kill hair cells, preventing signals from traveling from the ear to the brain.

In our fuel cells, we do it with platinum; life does it with a very, very common iron.

And also, there's way more cells in your brain than the number of straws in a typical haystack.

It turned out that all we need to do is basically to let the brain form a memory, and then the brain will tell us which cells are involved in that particular memory.

XL: When you zoom in into the hippocampus, of course you will see lots of cells, but we are able to find which cells are involved in a particular memory, because whenever a cell is active, like when it's forming a memory, it will also leave a footprint that will later allow us to know these cells are recently active.

XL: So we clipped part of this sensor, and attached that to a switch to control the cells, and we packed this switch into an engineered virus and injected that into the brain of the mice.

So whenever a memory is being formed, any active cells for that memory will also have this switch installed.

The sea of blue that you see here are densely packed brain cells, but the green brain cells, the green brain cells are the ones that are holding on to a specific fear memory.

SR: So what do you think, Xu? Could we use, let's say, pharmacological drugs to activate or inactivate brain cells?

And also it takes them forever to act on cells.

SR: So electricity is pretty fast, but we probably wouldn't be able to target it to just the specific cells that hold onto a memory, and we'd probably fry the brain.
