      Robert Newby it’s hard typing complex subjects in comment (a white board is useful) but here goes nothing.
      1) the target of the therapeutics they are talking about are often a protein that is expressed by an exon far far away from the telomeres. For example, let’s say a gene expresses a protein and a drug targets that protein, let’s say as an example it’s an enzyme that the drug increases function of and thus prevents hypertension. This increases life span but has zero to do with the telomeres length and telomerase function. Hope that makes sense
      2. Genome of mice and humans (both at genetic and epigenetic levels) are VERY different. That basically means we have some genes that are the same, some genes that do the same but work differently and some genes that only humans or mice have. You could use this fact to say mice are not an ideal model and thus some therapeutics don’t translate to humans (but keep in mind we have to start somewhere and you can’t start with humans). If you make that point you’d be right. This is why many therapeutics (that I also work on) use what is called a humanized mouse model when possible. Google it it is really cool and clever. I’d be happy to explain different versions of it (and discuss the limitations of it) but I’m sure someone on RUclips has done already it better than I can here
      Am I explaining it clearly or not making any sense?

      @@ricksanchezC0137 Well this all makes sense, but in my opinion it does not contradict what was mentioned in the podcast. There was no talk about the influence of drugs on telomeres or genes. If I understood correctly, the general effect on the individual cell was discussed. When a new compound is tested, it could be potentially harmful to the cell, regardless of which protein it targets (perhaps by a different mode of action than was hoped for. Especially when it comes to new drugs this is difficult to predict). So if the substance damages the cell, the telomeres could make sure that this damage is "repaired" in the mice tested and the damage would not appear in the study. Therefore, the risk of falsified results could be very high. This could lead to the active substance being approved for further testing and the harmful effect remaining undiscovered until then.
      On the second point, it could be argued that (if we leave aside clinical trials for drugs) many investigations and studies in a number of areas only focus on mice. It is doubtful whether the same high standard is always used there. Even if the humanized mouse model is used, it should be checked in several studies whether there is a risk of errors as a result of the special telomeres. So whether or not Bret Weinstein's theory and the possible consequences are correct or not, should be checked for the sake of care. If the theory proves to be correct, in the best case a pile of studies would have to be thrown into the trash can and in the worst case human lives would be endangered (for example in human tests after the tests on mice). The arugmentation is convincing enough to wish for a scientific examination of it.
      A translator was used, so don't pay too much attention to the bad English.

    Im a research engineer and was testing the performance of an innovative solution. The experiments yielded some benchmark shattering results. A week later, I discovered a malfunctioning part of the tester that caused inaccurate sensing. Needless to say, my heart sank to my stomach as my years of hard work were a failure. I begrudgingly broke it to my superiors.
    This is probably what these scientists are thinking, that his discovery will cause a massive rescission of published papers and works. These scientists are more concerned with their reputation than actual science.

    • @mikethomas4423

      That is science in a nutshell. Evidence is disregarded and ignored if it does not fit with pre established theories. (Look at how Copernicus or Galileo were treated by their contempories aswell as their superiors) or for a more modern day example take a look at how Dr Mary Schweitzers discoveries were treated... I was taught that to be scientific fact something must be theorised, tested under controlled conditions , witnessed/recorded and repeated. However, This process of the scientific method absolutely infuriates scientists , fundamental theories such as the evolution of species and the big bang, can not be witnessed, tested or repeated thus, rendering them hypotheses only.. Science can tell us many things and can disprove some of the claims of religion, however science is not always accurate and it is a cliquey field where majority opinion holds more weight than controversial evidence. Mathematics is the only way of revealing true fact. Numbers don't lie . Apply maths to any theory and if the numbers tally up the theory is sound . If the numbers become incomprehensible then the theory must be discarded .

      continued research with explored skepticism is the theoretical strength of science, so we have this potential issue with lab mice, why can that not be reflected in climatological research.
      why can Joe believe this and not the validity of skepticism within environmental policy, it smacks of dogma and an insular view that Joe usually is so keen to escape from.

And, if you’re too scared to leave your comfy computer chair, then stop telling people they need to join the military and become an “alpha”. And if everything I’ve said is true, then I’m ashamed to share a continent with you, and the same basic genome; being human brings me shame when I know there are people like you out there.

      Bret is a good story teller, but he has only ever been patient enough for the theoretical, just constantly spinning out ideas in all directions. We use cell cultures and outbred mice since the 1980s for discovery phase medical research, then it transfers to non-human primates for tolerance and toxicology (sometimes to dogs if they are a closer analogous species for the medical issue), then to phase I human trials for safety and dose eacalation, and then phase II for safety+effectiveness then to phase III for large scale safety+effectiveness. We never just take initial inbred mouse result into humans. Most of what Bret says is bullshit stories cherry picking the 0.01% of ideas he spun out that someone else independently proved was correct as of he is a rouge genius who predicts the future if only the world would listen. The rest are actual fabrications that are untrue but stir the pot in ways that upset the establishment, which is now what he lives for as a bitter old man that non-scientists are now listening to via the internet.

    Hello, biologist here. Most serious drugs, biologics, and medical devices are required by the FDA to undergo a series of tests in different animals, starting with mice, ending with monkeys and eventually humans. Though Weinstein has a point in the mouse model’s flaw, most safety tests at the mouse level are just to ensure death does not immediately occur. As with any drug, even some that do cause tissue damage in humans, there is always a risk/benefit assessment. Are there drugs that may cause heart damage over years but prevent someone from dying tomorrow. Probably. So the FDA approves it, and you get a nice warning sticker on the side. Just my 2 cents. Of course, the Joe Rogan podcast is known to be somewhat sensationalist to draw excitement around previously discussed issues, and while again Weinstein has a point, the world and science are unfortunately not as clear cut as he tries to make them sound.

      I don't completely agree , I think there is also problem in quantity. These drugs doesn't kill every human , but maybe 1 of 1000/10 000/100 000 cases. You can test drugs on 1000 mice , but you can't test it on 1000 monkeys. So there is a valid argument for Weinstein point, if the mice are genetically modified to be resistant to these drugs , you can change the ratio from 1 of 1000 to 1 of 1 000 000 or more . That means you can get very bad results ,which you can or can't catch later - example if you will test it on 10 monkeys later , it is statistically not very probable to catch it. There are only few mammals that you can use for drug testing in large quantities ( e.g rabbits ) but as far I know mice are the most common. Also the fact alone that FDA approves it , doesn't mean it is not a huge problem. Again as far I know FDA approved lots of things by mistake or despite error in the drugs , of course it is very long and hard process but if you model contains part where results can be altered by the test itself, mistakes happen.

    To summarise this video:
    - There are some substantial differences between wild mice and lab mice, lab mice have been altered for testing somewhere along the lines. Either accidentally or purposely.
    - We are using altered lab mice to test drugs before they are deemed safe for humans.
    - These altered lab mice are more resistant to certain toxins whereas those same toxins could have a detrimental effect on us humans.
    - This eludes that the current procedure of testing pharmaceutical drugs is completely flawed. And all drugs that have been dubbed safe via testing on altered lab mice are in fact, not safe at all and the effects long term on humans are unknown and could be extremely detrimental to our health and lives. Causing us serious harm and or death.
    - The papers and evidence of this apparent scientific mistake (which would effect the health and well-being of millions if not billions of people around the world) are not being put in the spotlight.
    - Media and news outlets all around the world should be reporting on this paper, which points to a completely flawed system in the testing of pharmaceuticals. One of the biggest industries in the world; the pharmaceutical industry, worth trillions of dollars has potentially got it all wrong which could have major consequences causing serious health problems and or death for millions of people. Yet nothing is being reported or aired by any major news or media outlets, quite strange isn’t it?
    In conclusion:
    - pharmaceuticals are not accurately tested.
    - Pharmaceuticals are potentially very dangerous for humans.
    - It’s probably not safe to take pharmaceuticals.
    - Proof of all of this is being covered up.

    Love Brett Weinstein, but I have a few sticks I can throw into the wheels of this argument.
    You are right, there are no good animal models, they all have issues.
    The loss of telomeres does not in itself prevent cell growth, instead, it might be better explained by the loss of actual genes at the ends, which would in turn lead to a loss of cell viability. Cell replication is more complicated than just telomeres, so even if you were right, it may not affirm your hypothesis.
    As for cancerigenic compounds, while most tests look for cancer, years after ingestion, newer tests (see TwinStrand, Seattle) let you see those mutagenesis rates almost in real time.

      This has nothing to do with Pharma companies. University research labs all around the world are filled with people who understand the issue and work with and around it.
      There are LOTS of different strains of lab mice. They have different genetics, and can react very differently to different drugs. It's extremely well known. It's why we select certain ones for testing different things. Google Jackson Labs Mice Strains. They, as just 1 supplier, have a huge catalog of different strains with different genetics.

I HATED it. It was messing with my health and causing me to break out on my face. I worked in the area that killed rats that were sick or had tumors...at least this is what they tell you. Yea the occasional one had a tumor or looked sickly but 99 percent of the thousands we killed were just overstock and some being babies that were days old or if they wanted to start a new breed but didn't have room they would get rid of another to replace it which was hundreds. We used Co2 to kill them and it was anything but humane. They would slowly die and some would even seem dead but then come back and you could hear them. I didn't even give the place a two week notice. I just quit. They would have people try to sneak in their like reporters and get hired just to spy on them too. It was crazy.

    Someone I know was a lab assistant in a lab studying diabetes treatments, they induced diabetes in rats and mice by mixing MSG into their food over a long period which caused them to eat much more and develop diabetes rather reliably.
    He then noticed the amount of MSG in many normal foods, particularly lower cost food marketed to low income people who were also known to be statistically more prone to diabetes, and he released a paper on it.
    He was shut out of grad school, no longer employable in any lab, and predictably nobody else wants to research links between MSG in food and rising rates of diabetes.

    Dear Lord. This is one of the most eye opening things I've ever seen. I've always had my suspicions that pharmaceutical companies were doing something wrong but never expected it to be this obvious. Youd think that if you test your drugs on one species then youd atleast know if something was majorly wrong with that species

    I hadn't heard this example before but it doesn't surprise me. This kind of wilful blindness is one of the main reasons I left my long term, well paid job as a lab animal technician at a good university to go further my own education. Any attempt to talk about laboratory animal science and good research practice with scientists was met with an attitude that made it very clear that our knowledge didn't mean anything because we didn't have PhDs. Well I'm handing in my thesis in a few weeks and I would still make the same arguments that a lot of the research those guys were doing used stressed out, sedentary, overweight animals who were probably terrible research models. And they would usually use one of a couple of inbred strains just because that's what everyone did.
