Can you transplant a head to another body? - Max G. Levy

Follow a neurosurgeon's attempts to perform a head transplant, and dig into the ethical and biological questions the procedure raises.
--
In 1970, neurosurgeon Robert White and his team carted two monkeys into an operating room to conduct an ambitious experiment. The objective was to connect the head of Monkey A to the body of Monkey B, in what he considered a whole-body transplant, with the ultimate goal of one day performing this surgery on humans. Is such a feat even medically possible? And is it ethical? Max G. Levy investigates.

I like the idea that in case of a head transplant, neither organisms survive and a totally new one is created. That doesn't make too much sense, however it is a small loophole for the philosophical questions such a surgery could raise.

[@XceptionalBro]

I've never thought of it that way. The living being resulting wouldn't be either the monkey A or B, but a quimera of both. Alas, given the extent of the experiments, probably that wasn't even the correct result. Apparently the head never got attached, and even if the other monkey's blood carried different hormones, which would've affected the head, I personally see it more like a life support machine, only made of wetware instead of hardware. Probably, if the nerves could've been spliced together, the resulting creature wouldn't have ever behaved quite like the monkey A nor the monkey B, but I don't know when we'll archive that level of medicine!

[@TheGameChallenger]

I think the answer is somewhere in between, as with the case of neurons across the body, the heart has its own "mini brain" (intracardiac nervous system) which isn't as big as the main brain but certainly much bigger than you think. The brain has 100 billion neurons, whereas the mini brain has only 100,000. This means that the brain has a million times the number of neurons that the mini brain has.

Unfortunately for the ultrarich, full body transplants aren't the longevity solution they are so desperately after. while new bodies might be young, the brain itself is prone to the effects of aging very much.

[@feynstein1004]

I'm not sure how that works. Neurons don't undergo mitosis. That's why you can't get more of them (except in the hypothalamus iirc). And since aging involves DNA damage due to repeated replication, neurons are immune to this. Theoretically, if you could isolate a brain and provide it glucose and oxygen, it could live indefinitely.

[@Decloren]

@@feynstein1004 that's not what causes cell aging, there are basically two main causes that is now established to be the underlying cause of cell aging, one is telomere length which as you have mentioned is due to cell duplication, but another significant cause of aging is due to free radical damage from basically all the reactions that go inside the cell to sustain, overtime this damage accumulate and overwhelm the mechanisms that try to control it. This is why even though neurons don't undergo cell duplication many people at advanced age show signs of brain atrophy and even outright dementia

[@feynstein1004]

@@Decloren Ah yes free radical damage. I forgot about that lol. But that can be largely mitigated using antioxidants, can't it? The telomere damage is irreversible though. So I feel like my point still stands. Just that now the brain in a jar needs antioxidants in addition to the glucose and oxygen.

[@Decloren]

@@feynstein1004 It might have been possible but impossible to know since such an "antioxidant" that would prevent all free radical damage does not exist. Telomere length is an another topic since it is actually possible for cells to replenish lost telomere by the use of the enzyme Telomerase which is how stem cells and cancer cells can multiply indefinitely without issue

[@coolParadigms]

Doing a difficult abstraction of ethical considerations, I am sure it could work and I would not worry too much about the the body-mind interactions because it sort of is already partially experienced with cardiac transplantations! But the real challenge and main interest of this paradigm would be the next step with spinal cord reconnection and I think it's likely to be possible in a not so long future (20 years) with some new technologies working in the body for a few weeks after the operation : dealing with scare tissues, recognizing the main pathways for muscular groups and body functions with more and more precise targets, probably using millions spinal cord specific stimulations to recognize the correct path and get a connection with the new head. It would probably need many technologies like enhanced cells, surgery and nanobots, but the most useful side effect would be to allow recovery of most paraplegia and quadriplegia, by the way an excellent way to get research credits.

[@InfernosReaper]

I wouldn't even say "nanobots" are needed, but just either a technological way to bridge the nerves together or working out how to do it biologically. From there, physical therapy might be a beast, though.

[@marsdriver2501]

@@InfernosReaper I wonder whether muscle memory would still be present, I mean could person A have easier time relearning skills in a person's B body?

[@InfernosReaper]

@@marsdriver2501 I suspect "no" but I'd rather know one way or the other definitively The reason I suspect "no" is that a lot of "muscle memory" is really just unconscious activities and the pathways are going to be different. Also muscles are gonna atrophy a bit while you learn how to control them correctly. It definitely will be a process getting functional again, but for many, it'd be worth it.

[@Paul-A01]

It would require something pretty remarkable because the neurons in your spine are really really long. Sowing them together wont work, you'd somehow have to attach axions together

[@InfernosReaper]

​@@Paul-A01 How does how long nerves are affect reconnecting them? No, that's irrelevant. The real issue is no good way to actually connect the ends in a way that actually works for the sheer number of nerves involved. It's basically akin to a bundle of individual strands of wires, each one having an insulating coating that all happen to be the same color.
