The Holy Grail of Science

Written by Paras Chopra


Continued from page 1

As we all know, our bodies are governed by genes which control just about everything about our body. Be it our physical appearance or resistance to diseases or intelligence (much debated) or inner functioning, every damn thing is controlled by our genes. It is said that if we can control genes we can controlrepparttar course of evolution. It is like ridingrepparttar 136699 car of evolution,repparttar 136700 human species being driver, passenger being earth and genes as its steering wheel.

It has been scientifically proven that every cell in our body has a type of biological clock called telomere. This clock tellsrepparttar 136701 cell when to stop dividing. If a cell is unable to reproduce then new cells are not born, hence our body dies. This is called ageing. The scientists today are trying to editrepparttar 136702 genes thus instructing cells to make longer telomere or altogether abandonrepparttar 136703 concept of telomere which can result in indefinite life span. If scientists are ever able to achieve this then it could bring a revolution. Then we’ll be able to keep body deteriorating effects of age at a bay and enjoyrepparttar 136704 full energetic life of youth atrepparttar 136705 age of 100. But even then, job would be half done.

The next front ofrepparttar 136706 battle would be ‘Diseases’. Even if we’re able to live up to 100 or more then what will keep our body protected from all those silly disease causing agents? The current method of medication will become useless very soon as more and more virus, bacteria, etc. are developing immunity against our body mechanism andrepparttar 136707 medicines. The fact that these agents mutate very rapidly makes them survive longer and longer. Butrepparttar 136708 humans have not changed at all. We are not able to mutate/change naturally as rapidly as these agents. So, it proves to be a disadvantage to us.

One way to get over this issue is to change our genes artificially. As a positive noterepparttar 136709 complete human genome has been mapped and now it isrepparttar 136710 duty ofrepparttar 136711 genetic engineers to make use of it and find a way to develop a fool-proof mechanism against these agents. Once we do this we can have very own personalized medicines or would be requiring no medicines at all. The personalized medicines will work in coordination with our immunity system. It would changerepparttar 136712 immunity system to make it capable of immunizing us to all new pathogens which our body does not know of. Then slowly, according to survival ofrepparttar 136713 fittest, allrepparttar 136714 pathogens will be wiped out of existence.

The infinite life span raises many ethical questions. Also, genetic engineering has raised moral/ethical issues world wide. But it is for socialists and politicians to sort out these issues. Scientists only know one way, which isrepparttar 136715 future. No matter how hard these politicians try to prevent them from achieving this but one day orrepparttar 136716 other they will achieve this. And then we will live indefinitely and who knows this breakthrough might happen within our lifetime. And after that, we see Indian soccer team win FIFA world cup in 2147 AD.
