It's a very seducing idea, but it's also a very partial one. From the perspective of aging multicellular organism, it's also a natural clock - the body self-destructing itself as it ages to leave more room for subsequent generations. And there's also the issue that cancer cells aren't the only cells in our bodies to show a degree of individuality. Not all our cells work in perfect cooperation... and that's why there's so many auto-immune diseases. The idea that cancer is an atavism of some sort makes sense intuitively, but the more you look at it, the more it just looks like a dysfunction.

Shoutout to the pathology labs around the world! They're the department that carries out the staining & diagnosis of biopsies and bodily fluids. Pathologists (MDs who have specialised in laboratory medicine) then inspect the slides, order additional tests, and diagnose based on the results. The pathology department often gets overlooked by the general public as they tend to work in the background rather than directly with the patients. This unfortunately also means that a lot of medical laboratories face substantial shortages in personel! So they can use all the love & attention we can give them.

There are way to many MLTs getting churned out. The job market anywhere near an accrediting program is heavily flooded and the opposite is true for the Histo community due in part to the fact that at surface level it isn't apparent just how integral a pathology lab is in the grand diagnosis/treatment system. We don't work for patients. We work for the doctor that performed your surgery. Over the years they have also incrementally made accreditation more difficult as time goes on. Its become discouraging to young people. The average age of an employee in an IHC or histolab is upper 50's maybe even 60 now. The Histo community is understaffed as a whole but its manageable. In another 10-15 years though the bulk of us will be retiring. The time to train and educate a new generation is here now but no one wants to address it publicly. It's like driving a car and waiting until it dies on the side of the road before you get more gas. It's too late at that point. Our low fuel light is on but no one seems to be concerned.

As a cancer biologist who works on trying to understand how cancer cells invade and metastasize, I really do appreciate this video. Cancer cells are literally like its own organism, they move away to find more food and establish new home (yeah, that's essentially what metastases are!). I'm so glad Hank is doing better. But this video also shows how cancer research is so important. And the people who work in histology are also the unsung heroes for doing all the staining in the background just so the pathologist can look and diagnose. All very important work that needs to be recognised for!

No different than missing getting hit by a drunk driver because you stopped for 20 seconds to tie your shoes 3 blocks away. Life is random. We lull ourselves into thinking we're fully in control of everything, but you could just as easily wake up tomorrow morning and learn you have brain cancer. You just have to accept the possibility that something COULD happen at any moment to destroy you, or your life, or your livelihood, or your home, or your family/a family member. Life is random. But the fact that we have no control over these things doesn't have to be scary.

Man I remember when I logged into youtube one morning, and there was a new channel "Journey to the Microcosmos", where Hank was doing ASMR descriptions of tiny things and talking about how excited they were to have a fancy microscope. I remember when they upgraded, I remember so many things. 20k, 50k, 100k, 250k, and soon 1m. I LOVE this 'lab science' channel! It shows things that are in the world all around us, but that most of us would never see or know about. Here's hoping for many, MANY more years of Hank Green narrations!

Quick rectification. PAX5 is a transcription factor, so it is not expressed on the surface of cells. BCL2 is a protein that regulates cell death (apoptosis), it is also not on the surface but inside the cell, in the cytoplasm. Finally, cyclin D1 is involved in the cell cycle and it is not expressed on the surface. CD15, CD30 and CD20 are expressed on the surface of the cells. You can still see the other proteins because before labelling them with amtibodies we permeabilize and fix the cell membrane.

One thing that annoys me about modern people is that plenty of them think that cancer as a whole is a recent thing. “Cancer is because of processed food and not living clean” they say. When in fact cancer has been a part of life since the jump. They always either double down or open up when I tell them that we found osteosarcoma on fossils million upon millions of years old. Cancer been here forever and it’s not really going anywhere for the next couple of generations maybe. You could live the cleanest most straight edge life in existence and still get got like that.

@@i.ehrenfest349 yes we have a lot of factors that go into increasing chances of cancer but those factors pending the person won’t do anything either. I wouldn’t exactly say cases are mushrooming either rather we’ve gotten so good at catching these things early and people screen more often that we’re catching more diagnoses what would’ve remained hidden for some time, and a great indicator for cancer seems to also be genetics. You have ww2 vets that drank and smoked every day and stay cancer free until a natural death of old age and triathletes that never poisoned their bodies ever and they catch lung cancer at 37 and die soon thereafter.

Finding cancer usually isn't done with immunostaining though. It's done by staining all cells (usually with hematoxylin and eosin) where you stain the cytoplasm and nuclei, with that stain you look for cells that have abnormal size and nuclei and might be in the wrong location (among other things, this stuff is complicated and difficult). Immunostaining is usually done to get more information: what cancer is it? How bad is it? Which treatments are viable?

Thank you for showing us your Hodgkin/Hodgkin's/John Hodgman Lymphoma cells. This is really interesting with the extra dimension of it being you talking about the microcosmos of ... you. And that you're okay now, thankfully.

Back in the mid-eighties I had to hand-carry my biopsy slides (and X-ray films!) to Big Cancer Hospital where I was going to be treated. Of course the first thing I did when I got my hands on them was to put them under our family's old light-reflector microscope. After all, my flight wasn't until the next day. They didn't look even close to as good as these slides! But still fascinating. Also all the CD14 typing and the like wasn't even being done yet. They hadn't yet even proved which cells for Hodgkin's turned cancerous. By the way, I had mixed cellularity, too.

Not only am i a Hank green fan but also a pathologist. It's so cool to see one of my favourite creators step into my world, which is often overlooked. I never thought i would see a tray of slides on a KZfaq video. Stay well Hank

It is unfortunate that you had to go through this, but, the way you've turned it around and used it to educate us about cancer is inspiring. Well done, Hank, and thank you for being open about it and turning this horrible illness into a way to educate others.

This was gorgeous and concise. I would love a full documentary on this topic! It's crazy to think the tree of life can go single cell>multicellular thing>animal>single cell! Less like a tree of life and more like a wheel...there's something Buddhist about that!

What an informative, captivating video and strong story! Thank you for sharing it. In combination with some kurzgesagt videos on cancer, I've been learning a lot. And as a side note: Being a lay person in microbiology who speaks English as a second language - though being not far from fluent in colloquial settings and in my own field of study - and although your pronounciation is very, very clear, I still dearly appreciate the thorough subtitling which makes it a whole lot easier for me (and I am sure: even for many native speakers) to follow along.

This is a great video. Also, for a blood cancer like lymphoma, if chemo doesn’t work, a blood stem cell transplant is another treatment option. It’s utterly astonishing that as complex as our immune system is, if you have the same antigens on your cells as another person, your cancer can be cured by a transplant of their blood stem cells. I never stop being astonished at what happens in our bodies at the cellular level with no conscious input from us! Glad you are still with us, Hank. 🧡
