Is it not a dream for a man to have a baby? Japanese scientists let two male mice "give birth"

#Men give birth to babies##Male mice give birth##日本科学家让两只雄性老鼠 "Babies" #

You may have heard of cloning Dolly the sheep, or you may have heard of gene-edited babies, but you must not have expected that scientists could make two male mice "give birth"!

Yes, you read that right. It's not science fiction, it's not a parody, it's something that really happened.

According to reports, on March 8, local time, at the third International Human Genome Editing Summit held in London, England, Professor Kashihiko of Japan said that they used the cells of male mice for the first time to grow viable eggs, so that two male mice "produced" offspring.

Specifically, they converted somatic cells from one male mouse into egg cells and combined them with sperm from another male mouse to form a fertilized egg. They then transplanted these fertilized eggs into the uterus of the surrogate mother rat and successfully gave birth to 29 healthy mice.

These mice all have genes from both fathers and are able to reproduce normally. Professor Lin said the study was done to address serious infertility and was not intended to be applied to humans.

However, this study has still caused heated discussions and concerns among netizens. Someone exclaimed, "It's not a dream for a man to have a baby?" "Is this to subvert human society?" , "Will I need a woman in the future?" ; And some people quipped: "I wonder how those two father mice are doing?" "What if two maternal mice were allowed to 'give birth'?" "Can I make an appointment with a boy?"

Of course, some serious and rational questions are asked: "Will this affect biodiversity and genetic stability?" , "Is this ethical and legal?" "Is this really effective for infertility?"

We can't give definitive answers to these questions for the time being. But we can safely say that scientists have opened the door to a new world. In this new world, maybe one day, "men having babies" is really no longer a dream.

At last!
