So I was privileged to train in transplantation
0
16260
4000
Imala sam privilegiju da me metodama transplantacije podučavaju
00:20
under two great surgical pioneers:
1
20260
2000
dva fantastična pionira u hirurgiji
00:22
Thomas Starzl,
2
22260
2000
Tomas Štarzl,
00:24
who performed the world's first successful liver transplant
3
24260
3000
čovek koji je obavio prvu uspešnu transplantaciju jetre na svetu,
00:27
in 1967,
4
27260
2000
1967. godine,
00:29
and Sir Roy Calne,
5
29260
2000
i Gospodin Roj Kaln,
00:31
who performed the first liver transplant in the U.K.
6
31260
3000
koji je odradio prvu transplantaciju jetre u Velikoj Britaniji
00:34
in the following year.
7
34260
3000
godinu dana nakon toga.
00:37
I returned to Singapore
8
37260
2000
Potom sam se vratila u Singapur,
00:39
and, in 1990,
9
39260
2000
i 1990. godine
00:41
performed Asia's first successful
10
41260
2000
odradila u Aziji prvu uspešnu
00:43
cadaveric liver transplant procedure,
11
43260
3000
kompleksnu transplantaciju jetre,
00:46
but against all odds.
12
46260
3000
nasuprot svim očekivanjima.
00:49
Now when I look back,
13
49260
2000
Kada pogledam sada u nazad,
00:51
the transplant was actually the easiest part.
14
51260
4000
transplantacija je u principu bila najlakši deo posla.
00:55
Next, raising the money to fund the procedure.
15
55260
4000
Sledeće, doći do para kako bismo finansirali tu proceduru.
00:59
But perhaps the most challenging part
16
59260
4000
Ali je verovatno najzahtevniji deo
01:03
was to convince the regulators --
17
63260
2000
bio da ubedimo ljude na vrhu --
01:05
a matter which was debated in the parliament --
18
65260
4000
u nešto o čemu se raspravljalo i u parlamentu --
01:09
that a young female surgeon
19
69260
2000
a to je da mladoj ženi hirurgu
01:11
be allowed the opportunity
20
71260
2000
bude ukazana prilika
01:13
to pioneer for her country.
21
73260
3000
da uspostavi nešto novo u svojoj zemlji.
01:16
But 20 years on,
22
76260
2000
Ali 20 godina kasnije,
01:18
my patient, Surinder,
23
78260
2000
moja pacijentkinja, Surinder,
01:20
is Asia's longest surviving
24
80260
2000
je osoba iz Azije koja je
01:22
cadaveric liver transplant to date.
25
82260
3000
do danas preživela najduži period nakon transplantacije.
01:25
(Applause)
26
85260
4000
(Aplauz)
01:29
And perhaps more important,
27
89260
3000
I verovatno je još značajnije to
01:32
I am the proud godmother
28
92260
2000
što sam ja ponosna kuma
01:34
to her 14 year-old son.
29
94260
2000
njenog četrnaestogodišnjeg sina.
01:36
(Applause)
30
96260
3000
(Aplauz)
01:40
But not all patients on the transplant wait list
31
100260
2000
Ali ne dele svi pacijenti koji se nađu na listi
01:42
are so fortunate.
32
102260
2000
čekanja organa takvu sreću.
01:44
The truth is,
33
104260
2000
Isitna je da,
01:46
there are just simply not enough donor organs
34
106260
2000
jednostavno ne postoji dovoljno donora organa
01:48
to go around.
35
108260
2000
za sve neophodne transplantacije.
01:50
As the demand for donor organs
36
110260
2000
A zahtev za organima donora
01:52
continues to rise,
37
112260
2000
nastavlja da raste,
01:54
in large part due to the aging population,
38
114260
3000
velikim delom usled starenja populacije,
01:57
the supply has remained relatively constant.
39
117260
4000
dok su resursi za dobijanje istih nepromenjeni.
02:01
In the United States alone,
40
121260
2000
Samo u Sjedinjenim Američkim Državama,
02:03
100,000 men, women and children
41
123260
4000
100.000 muškaraca, žena i dece
02:07
are on the waiting list for donor organs,
42
127260
3000
se nalaze na listi čekanja organa,
02:10
and more than a dozen die each day
43
130260
3000
i više od desetine ljudi umre svakog dana
02:13
because of a lack of donor organs.
44
133260
3000
jer nema dovoljno donora.
02:16
The transplant community
45
136260
2000
Zajednica ljudi koja se bavi transplantacijom
02:18
has actively campaigned in organ donation.
46
138260
3000
je aktivno promovisala ideju o davanju organa.
02:21
And the gift of life
47
141260
2000
I lista davaoca organa
02:23
has been extended
48
143260
2000
je proširena
02:25
from brain-dead donors
49
145260
2000
od osoba kojima je mozak nefunkcionalan
02:27
to living, related donors --
50
147260
2000
do živih donora koji su u srodstvu sa vama --
02:29
relatives who might donate an organ
51
149260
3000
rođaci mogu donirati svoje organe,
02:32
or a part of an organ,
52
152260
2000
ili deo organa,
02:34
like a split liver graft,
53
154260
2000
na primer deo jetre,
02:36
to a relative or loved one.
54
156260
3000
rođacima ili voljenoj osobi.
02:39
But as there was still a dire shortage of donor organs,
55
159260
3000
Ali obzirom da je i dalje postojala velika nestašica organa,
02:42
the gift of life was then extended
56
162260
2000
lista davaoca je opet proširena
02:44
from living, related donors
57
164260
2000
od živih donora koji su u srodstvu sa vama
02:46
to now living, unrelated donors.
58
166260
3000
do osoba koje to nisu.
02:49
And this then has given rise
59
169260
3000
A to je dovelo do
02:52
to unprecedented and unexpected
60
172260
3000
nezampaćene i neočekivane
02:55
moral controversy.
61
175260
2000
moralne kontroverze.
02:58
How can one distinguish
62
178260
3000
Kako možemo da napravimo razliku između
03:01
a donation that is voluntary and altruistic
63
181260
3000
dobrovoljne, altruističke donacije organa
03:04
from one that is forced or coerced
64
184260
3000
i one koja je nametnuta i prisiljena
03:07
from, for example,
65
187260
2000
na primer,
03:09
a submissive spouse, an in-law,
66
189260
3000
od pokornog supružnika, rodbine,
03:12
a servant, a slave,
67
192260
2000
sluge, roba,
03:14
an employee?
68
194260
2000
zaposlenog?
03:16
Where and how can we draw the line?
69
196260
3000
Gde i kako možemo da povučemo tu crtu?
03:20
In my part of the world,
70
200260
3000
U delu sveta odakle ja dolazim,
03:23
too many people live below the poverty line.
71
203260
3000
previše ljudi živi ispod granice siromaštva.
03:26
And in some areas,
72
206260
2000
I u nekim regionima je
03:28
the commercial gifting of an organ
73
208260
2000
komercijalno davanje organa
03:30
in exchange for monetary reward
74
210260
3000
u zamenu za novčanu nagradu
03:33
has led to a flourishing trade
75
213260
2000
dovelo do procvata trgovine organima
03:35
in living, unrelated donors.
76
215260
3000
među ljudima koji nisu u srodstvu.
03:39
Shortly after I performed the first liver transplant,
77
219260
3000
Ubrzo nakon što sam odradila prvu transplantaciju jetre,
03:42
I received my next assignment,
78
222260
2000
dobila sam sledeći zadatak,
03:44
and that was to go to the prisons
79
224260
3000
da idem u zatvore
03:47
to harvest organs
80
227260
2000
i izolujem organe
03:49
from executed prisoners.
81
229260
3000
iz pogubljenih zatvorenika.
03:52
I was also pregnant at the time.
82
232260
3000
U to vreme sam takođe bila trudna.
03:55
Pregnancies are meant
83
235260
2000
Trudnoća bi trebalo da bude period
03:57
to be happy and fulfilling moments
84
237260
3000
prepun srećnih i ispunjavajućih momenata
04:00
in any woman's life.
85
240260
2000
u životu svake žene.
04:02
But my joyful period
86
242260
2000
Ali moj srećni period
04:04
was marred by solemn and morbid thoughts --
87
244260
5000
je bio uništen veoma ozbiljnim i morbidnim mislima --
04:09
thoughts of walking through
88
249260
2000
razmišljanjima o prolaženju
04:11
the prison's high-security death row,
89
251260
3000
kroz redove zatvorenika osuđenih na smrtnu kaznu,
04:14
as this was the only route
90
254260
2000
a to je bila jedina putanja kojom sam mogla
04:16
to take me to the makeshift operating room.
91
256260
4000
da dođem do improvizovane operacione sale.
04:20
And at each time,
92
260260
2000
I svakog puta,
04:22
I would feel the chilling stares
93
262260
3000
bih se osetila uznemireno
04:25
of condemned prisoners' eyes follow me.
94
265260
4000
kada bih osetila poglede osuđenika koji me prate.
04:29
And for two years,
95
269260
2000
I tokom dve godine,
04:31
I struggled with the dilemma
96
271260
2000
sam se borila sa dilemom
04:33
of waking up at 4:30 am
97
273260
2000
o ustajanju u 4:30 ujutru
04:35
on a Friday morning,
98
275260
2000
svakog petka,
04:37
driving to the prison,
99
277260
2000
vozila bih do zatvora,
04:39
getting down, gloved and scrubbed,
100
279260
2000
stizala do tamo, stavljala rukavice i dezinfikovala se,
04:41
ready to receive the body
101
281260
3000
spremna da preuzmem telo
04:44
of an executed prisoner,
102
284260
2000
pogubljenog zatvorenika,
04:46
remove the organs
103
286260
2000
izolovala bih organe
04:48
and then transport these organs
104
288260
2000
i transportovala bih ih
04:50
to the recipient hospital
105
290260
2000
do odgovarajuće bolnice
04:52
and then graft the gift of life
106
292260
3000
i onda bih poklonila život
04:55
to a recipient the same afternoon.
107
295260
3000
osobi kojoj je potreban organ tog istog popodneva.
04:58
No doubt, I was informed,
108
298260
2000
Bez ikakve sumnje, bila sam informisana
05:00
the consent had been obtained.
109
300260
3000
da je prethodno dobijena saglasnost za proceduru.
05:06
But, in my life,
110
306260
2000
Ali u mom životu,
05:08
the one fulfilling skill that I had
111
308260
5000
umeće koje me je uvek ispunjavalo
05:13
was now invoking feelings of conflict --
112
313260
4000
je sada budilo konfliktna osećanja --
05:17
conflict ranging
113
317260
2000
a to je konflikt koji je imao raspon
05:19
from extreme sorrow and doubt at dawn
114
319260
4000
od ekstremne tuge i nedoumice u zoru
05:23
to celebratory joy
115
323260
2000
do vanredne radosti
05:25
at engrafting the gift of life at dusk.
116
325260
4000
usled spašavanja života u svitanje.
05:29
In my team,
117
329260
2000
U mom timu,
05:31
the lives of one or two of my colleagues
118
331260
3000
životi jednog ili dvojice mojih kolega
05:34
were tainted by this experience.
119
334260
3000
bili su pometeni ovim iskustvom.
05:37
Some of us may have been sublimated,
120
337260
3000
Neki od nas su sublimirali te osećaje,
05:40
but really none of us remained the same.
121
340260
4000
ali zaista niko nije ostao nepromenjen.
05:44
I was troubled
122
344260
3000
Mučila me je činjenica
05:47
that the retrieval of organs from executed prisoners
123
347260
4000
da je izolovanje organa iz pogubljenih zatvorenika
05:51
was at least as morally controversial
124
351260
3000
barem onoliko moralno kontroverzno
05:54
as the harvesting of stem cells
125
354260
2000
koliko i izolovanje matičnih ćelija
05:56
from human embryos.
126
356260
3000
ih ljudskih embriona.
05:59
And in my mind,
127
359260
2000
I po mom mišljenju,
06:01
I realized as a surgical pioneer
128
361260
3000
shvatila sam da je moja uloga kao pionira u hirurgiji
06:04
that the purpose of my position of influence
129
364260
3000
kao osobe koja ima uticajnu poziciju
06:07
was surely to speak up
130
367260
2000
sigurno u tome da progovorim u
06:09
for those who have no influence.
131
369260
3000
ime onih koji nisu imali nikakav uticaj.
06:12
It made me wonder
132
372260
2000
Počela sam da se pitam
06:14
if there could be a better way --
133
374260
2000
da li postoji bolji način --
06:16
a way to circumvent death
134
376260
3000
da zaobiđemo smrt
06:19
and yet deliver the gift of life
135
379260
2000
a opet poklonimo život ljudima
06:21
that might exponentially impact
136
381260
3000
na način koji bi mogao da ima eksponencijalni uticaj
06:24
millions of patients worldwide.
137
384260
3000
na milione pacijenata širom sveta.
06:28
Now just about that time,
138
388260
2000
Upravo u to vreme,
06:30
the practice of surgery evolved
139
390260
2000
hirurgija je evoluirala
06:32
from big to small,
140
392260
2000
od velikih ka malim dimenzijama,
06:34
from wide open incisions
141
394260
2000
od širokih, otvorenih rezova pri operacijama
06:36
to keyhole procedures,
142
396260
2000
do procedura koje su se obavljale na rezu
06:38
tiny incisions.
143
398260
2000
veličine ključaonice, majušnih rezova.
06:41
And in transplantation, concepts shifted
144
401260
3000
I u transplantaciji je došlo do promene koncepta
06:44
from whole organs to cells.
145
404260
3000
od upotrebe organa do korišćenja ćelija.
06:47
In 1988, at the University of Minnesota,
146
407260
3000
1988. na Univerzitetu u Minesoti,
06:50
I participated in a small series
147
410260
3000
učestvovala sam u maloj seriji
06:53
of whole organ pancreas transplants.
148
413260
3000
transplantacija čitavog pankreasa.
06:56
I witnessed the technical difficulty.
149
416260
3000
I bila očevidac tehničkih poteškoća.
06:59
And this inspired in my mind
150
419260
2000
To je inspirisalo promenu u mom načinu razmišljanja
07:01
a shift from transplanting whole organs
151
421260
4000
da umesto transplantacija celih organa
07:05
to perhaps transplanting cells.
152
425260
2000
treba možda transplantirati ćelije.
07:07
I thought to myself,
153
427260
2000
Pomislila sam tada,
07:09
why not take the individual cells
154
429260
3000
zašto ne bismo izolovali indvidualne ćelije
07:12
out of the pancreas --
155
432260
2000
iz pankreasa --
07:14
the cells that secrete insulin to cure diabetes --
156
434260
3000
ćelije koje sintetišu insulin kako bismo izlečili dijabetes
07:17
and transplant these cells? --
157
437260
3000
i transplantirali te ćelije? --
07:20
technically a much simpler procedure
158
440260
2000
to je tehnički mnogo jednostavnija procedura
07:22
than having to grapple with the complexities
159
442260
3000
u poređenju sa borbom koju vodimo
07:25
of transplanting a whole organ.
160
445260
3000
da bismo transplantirali ceo organ.
07:28
And at that time,
161
448260
2000
I u to doba
07:30
stem cell research
162
450260
2000
je istraživanje matičnih ćelija
07:32
had gained momentum,
163
452260
2000
postalo veoma popularno,
07:34
following the isolation of the world's first
164
454260
3000
a potom je usledila prva u svetu izolacija
07:37
human embryonic stem cells
165
457260
2000
humanih embrionalnih matičnih ćelija
07:39
in the 1990s.
166
459260
3000
u devedesetim.
07:42
The observation that stem cells, as master cells,
167
462260
3000
Zapažanje da matične ćelije, kao master-ćelije,
07:45
could give rise
168
465260
2000
imaju potencijal da se razviju
07:47
to a whole variety of different cell types --
169
467260
2000
u različite tipove ćelija --
07:49
heart cells, liver cells,
170
469260
2000
ćelije srca, ćelije jetre,
07:51
pancreatic islet cells --
171
471260
2000
ćelije ostrvaca u pankreasu --
07:53
captured the attention of the media
172
473260
3000
je privuklo pažnju medija
07:56
and the imagination of the public.
173
476260
3000
i maštu javnosti.
07:59
I too was fascinated
174
479260
2000
Ja sam takođe bila fascinirana
08:01
by this new and disruptive cell technology,
175
481260
3000
ovom novom tehnologijom kojom se mogu izolovati ćelije,
08:04
and this inspired a shift in my mindset,
176
484260
3000
što je inspirisalo promenu u mom načinu razmišljanja,
08:07
from transplanting whole organs
177
487260
2000
od transplantiranja celih organa
08:09
to transplanting cells.
178
489260
3000
do transplantiranja ćelija.
08:12
And I focused my research on stem cells
179
492260
3000
Tako da sam se ja tada fokusirala na istraživanje matičnih ćelija
08:15
as a possible source
180
495260
2000
kao novih mogućih izvora
08:17
for cell transplants.
181
497260
2000
za ćelijske transplantacije.
08:20
Today we realize
182
500260
2000
Danas shvatamo
08:22
that there are many different types of stem cells.
183
502260
3000
da postoje različiti tipovi matičnih ćelija.
08:25
Embryonic stem cells
184
505260
2000
Matične ćelije embriona
08:27
have occupied center stage,
185
507260
2000
su zauzele centalno mesto na pozornici,
08:29
chiefly because of their pluripotency --
186
509260
4000
uglavnom zbog toga što su to pluripotentne ćelije --
08:33
that is their ease in differentiating
187
513260
3000
što znači da od njih mogu da nastanu
08:36
into a variety of different cell types.
188
516260
3000
različiti tipovi ćelija.
08:40
But the moral controversy
189
520260
3000
Ali postoji moralna kontroverza
08:43
surrounding embryonic stem cells --
190
523260
3000
povezana sa matičnim ćelijama embriona --
08:46
the fact that these cells are derived
191
526260
2000
a koja leži u činjenici da te ćelije izolujemo
08:48
from five-day old human embryos --
192
528260
3000
iz humanih embriona koji su stari 5 dana
08:51
has encouraged research
193
531260
2000
što je dovelo do istraživanja
08:53
into other types of stem cells.
194
533260
3000
različitih tipova matičnih ćelija.
08:56
Now to the ridicule of my colleagues,
195
536260
4000
Potom sam, iako su me kolege podsmešljivo gledale,
09:00
I inspired my lab
196
540260
2000
inspirisala svoju laboratoriju
09:02
to focus on what I thought
197
542260
3000
da fokusiramo naše istraživanje na - kako sam ja mislila-
09:05
was the most non-controversial source of stem cells,
198
545260
4000
najnekotroverzniji izvor matičnih ćelija,
09:09
adipose tissue, or fat, yes fat --
199
549260
3000
a to je masno tkivo ili masne naslage - da baš mast --
09:12
nowadays available in abundant supply --
200
552260
3000
u današnjem vremenu nam je dostupno u ogromnim količinama --
09:16
you and I, I think, would be very happy to get rid of anyway.
201
556260
4000
i vi i ja, ja mislim, bismo bili srećni da ga se otarasimo.
09:21
Fat-derived stem cells
202
561260
2000
Matične ćelije koje potiču od masnog tkiva
09:23
are adult stem cells.
203
563260
2000
su matične ćelije odraslih osoba.
09:25
And adult stem cells
204
565260
2000
I te zrele matične ćelije
09:27
are found in you and me --
205
567260
2000
u vama i meni -- možemo pronaći
09:29
in our blood, in our bone marrow,
206
569260
2000
u našoj krvi, u našoj koštanoj srži,
09:31
in our fat, our skin and other organs.
207
571260
3000
u našem masnom tkivu, koži i drugim organima.
09:34
And as it turns out,
208
574260
2000
I ispostavilo se,
09:36
fat is one of the best sources
209
576260
2000
da je masno tkivo najbolji izvor
09:38
of adult stem cells.
210
578260
2000
matičnih ćelija odraslih osoba.
09:40
But adult stem cells
211
580260
2000
Ali zrele matične ćelije
09:42
are not embryonic stem cells.
212
582260
3000
nisu embrionalne matične ćelije.
09:45
And here is the limitation:
213
585260
2000
U tome leži ograničenje:
09:47
adult stem cells are mature cells,
214
587260
3000
matične ćelije odraslih osoba su zrele ćelije,
09:50
and, like mature human beings,
215
590260
3000
i kao i odrasle osobe,
09:53
these cells are more restricted in their thought
216
593260
3000
one su malo više ograničene u načinu razmišljanja
09:56
and more restricted in their behavior
217
596260
3000
i malo više ograničene u svom ponašanju
09:59
and are unable to give rise
218
599260
2000
i nisu u mogućnosti da proizvedu
10:01
to the wide variety of specialized cell types,
219
601260
3000
širok spektar različitih, specifičnih tipova ćelija,
10:04
as embryonic stem cells [can].
220
604260
2000
kao što to mogu embrionalne matične ćelije.
10:06
But in 2007,
221
606260
3000
Ali u 2007. godini,
10:09
two remarkable individuals,
222
609260
3000
dve izvanredne osobe,
10:12
Shinya Yamanaka of Japan
223
612260
2000
Šinija Jamanaka iz Japana
10:14
and Jamie Thomson of the United States,
224
614260
3000
i Džejmi Tompson iz Sjedinjenih Američkih Država,
10:17
made an astounding discovery.
225
617260
3000
su došli do neverovatnog otkrića.
10:20
They discovered
226
620260
2000
Otkrili su
10:22
that adult cells, taken from you and me,
227
622260
3000
da ćelije odraslih osoba, izolovane iz vas i mene,
10:25
could be reprogrammed
228
625260
3000
mogu biti reprogramirane
10:28
back into embryonic-like cells,
229
628260
2000
u stupanj koji je sličan matičnim ćelijama embriona,
10:30
which they termed IPS cells,
230
630260
3000
koji su nazvali IPM ćelija,
10:33
or induced pluripotent stem cells.
231
633260
5000
ili indukovane pluripotentne matične ćelije.
10:38
And so guess what,
232
638260
2000
I da li možda znate da se sada,
10:40
scientists around the world and in the labs
233
640260
3000
naučnici širom sveta u svojim laboratorijama
10:43
are racing
234
643260
2000
takmiče
10:45
to convert aging adult cells --
235
645260
3000
da pretvore odrasle ćelije koje stare --
10:48
aging adult cells from you and me --
236
648260
2000
odrasle ćelije u procesu starenja u vama i meni --
10:50
they are racing to reprogram these cells
237
650260
3000
takmiče se da ih re-programiraju
10:53
back into more useful IPS cells.
238
653260
4000
u IPM stanje koje je daleko korisnije.
10:58
And in our lab,
239
658260
2000
U našoj laboratoriji,
11:00
we are focused on taking fat
240
660260
2000
mi smo fokusirani na izolovanje masnog tkiva
11:02
and reprogramming
241
662260
2000
i re-programiranje
11:04
mounds of fat
242
664260
2000
tone masnog tkiva
11:06
into fountains of youthful cells --
243
666260
4000
u reke mladih ćelija
11:10
cells that we may use
244
670260
2000
ćelija koje bismo potom mogli da koristimo
11:12
to then form other,
245
672260
2000
da proizvedu druge,
11:14
more specialized, cells,
246
674260
2000
viče specijalizovane tipove ćelija,
11:16
which one day may be used as cell transplants.
247
676260
3000
koje bismo jednog dana mogli da koristimo za transplantiranje.
11:20
If this research is successful,
248
680260
3000
Ukoliko budemo uspešni u ovim istraživanjima,
11:23
it may then reduce the need
249
683260
3000
to može smanjiti potrebu
11:26
to research and sacrifice
250
686260
2000
za istraživanjem i žrtvovanjem
11:28
human embryos.
251
688260
3000
ljudskih embriona.
11:32
Indeed, there is a lot of hype, but also hope
252
692260
3000
I zaista, diže se puno prašine, ali ima i puno nade
11:35
that the promise of stem cells
253
695260
2000
da matične ćelije imaju potencijal
11:37
will one day provide cures
254
697260
2000
da se koriste rutinski u lečenju
11:39
for a whole range of conditions.
255
699260
2000
različitih tipova bolesti.
11:41
Heart disease, stroke, diabetes,
256
701260
3000
Srčana bolest, šlog, dijabetes,
11:44
spinal cord injury, muscular dystrophy,
257
704260
2000
povrede kičmene moždine, muskularna distrofija,
11:46
retinal eye diseases --
258
706260
3000
bolesti retine --
11:49
are any of these conditions
259
709260
2000
i mnoge druge bolesti
11:51
relevant, personally, to you?
260
711260
3000
da li patite od nekih od ovih bolesti?
11:54
In May 2006,
261
714260
3000
U maju 2006. godine,
11:57
something horrible happened to me.
262
717260
3000
se meni desilo nešto zaista strašno.
12:00
I was about to start a robotic operation,
263
720260
2000
Trebalo je da počnem robotizovanu operaciju,
12:02
but stepping out of the elevator
264
722260
2000
ali kada sam izašla iz lifta
12:04
into the bright and glaring lights of the operating room,
265
724260
3000
u operacionu salu koja je bila svetla i blistava
12:07
I realized
266
727260
2000
shvatila sam
12:09
that my left visual field
267
729260
2000
da se moje levo polje vida
12:11
was fast collapsing into darkness.
268
731260
3000
veoma brzo gubi u potpunoj tami.
12:14
Earlier that week,
269
734260
2000
Ranije te nedelje
12:16
I had taken a rather hard knock
270
736260
2000
sam se poprilično jako udarila
12:18
during late spring skiing -- yes, I fell.
271
738260
3000
tokom skijanja u kasno proleće -- da, pala sam.
12:21
And I started to see floaters and stars,
272
741260
2000
I videla sam svetlace i zvezde,
12:23
which I casually dismissed
273
743260
2000
koje sam opušteno objasnila
12:25
as too much high-altitude sun exposure.
274
745260
3000
preteranom izlaganju suncu na velikim nadmorskim visinama.
12:28
What happened to me
275
748260
2000
Ono što se meni desilo
12:30
might have been catastrophic,
276
750260
2000
moglo je imati katastrofalne posledice,
12:32
if not for the fact
277
752260
2000
da nisam bila u mogućnosti da
12:34
that I was in reach of good surgical access.
278
754260
2000
dobijem dobru hiruršku intervenciju.
12:36
And I had my vision restored,
279
756260
2000
Ponovo sam mogla dobro da vidim,
12:38
but not before a prolonged period of convalescence --
280
758260
3000
ali nakon produženog perioda oporavka --
12:41
three months --
281
761260
2000
tri meseca --
12:43
in a head down position.
282
763260
2000
u mirovanju.
12:45
This experience
283
765260
2000
Ovo iskustvo me je naučilo
12:47
taught me to empathize more with my patients,
284
767260
3000
da bolje sagledam muku svojih pacijenata,
12:50
and especially those with retinal diseases.
285
770260
3000
naročito onih koji pate od bolesti retine.
12:54
37 million people worldwide
286
774260
2000
37 miliona ljudi širom sveta
12:56
are blind,
287
776260
2000
je slepo,
12:58
and 127 million more
288
778260
3000
i još 127 miliona ljudi
13:01
suffer from impaired vision.
289
781260
3000
pati od lošeg vida.
13:04
Stem cell-derived retinal transplants,
290
784260
3000
Postoji mogućnost da transplantacije retine matičnim ćelijama,
13:07
now in a research phase,
291
787260
2000
koje su danas u fazi istraživanja,
13:09
may one day restore vision,
292
789260
2000
jednog dana uspešno u potpunosti povrate vid,
13:11
or part vision,
293
791260
2000
ili delimično povrate vid,
13:13
to millions of patients with retinal diseases worldwide.
294
793260
4000
milionima pacijenata koji pate od bolesti retine širom sveta.
13:17
Indeed, we live
295
797260
2000
I zaista, mi živimo u vremenu
13:19
in both challenging
296
799260
2000
koje je istovremeno i izazovno
13:21
as well as exciting times.
297
801260
3000
i uzbudljivo.
13:25
As the world population ages,
298
805260
3000
I paralelno sa starenjem svetske populacije,
13:28
scientists are racing
299
808260
2000
naučnici se takmiče da
13:30
to discover new ways
300
810260
2000
pronađu nove načine
13:32
to enhance the power of the body
301
812260
2000
kako bi poboljšali snagu tela
13:34
to heal itself through stem cells.
302
814260
3000
kako bi ono moglo samo sebe da izleči uz pomoć matičnih ćelija.
13:37
It is a fact
303
817260
2000
Činjenica je da
13:39
that when our organs or tissues are injured,
304
819260
3000
kada dođe do povrede naših organa ili tkiva
13:42
our bone marrow
305
822260
2000
koštana srž
13:44
releases stem cells
306
824260
2000
oslobađa matične čelije
13:46
into our circulation.
307
826260
2000
u naš krvotok.
13:48
And these stem cells
308
828260
2000
I ove matične ćelije
13:50
then float in the bloodstream
309
830260
2000
plutaju krvotokom
13:52
and hone in to damaged organs
310
832260
3000
i pronalaze oštećene organe u koje
13:55
to release growth factors
311
835260
2000
oslobađaju faktore rasta
13:57
to repair the damaged tissue.
312
837260
2000
kako bi zalečile oštećeno tkivo.
13:59
Stem cells may be used as building blocks
313
839260
3000
Matične ćelije se mogu koristiti kao gradivni blokovi
14:02
to repair damaged scaffolds within our body,
314
842260
4000
koji bi popravljali oštećene "skele" u našem telu,
14:06
or to provide new liver cells
315
846260
2000
ili da stvore nove ćelije jetre
14:08
to repair damaged liver.
316
848260
3000
da izleče oštećenu jetru.
14:11
As we speak, there are 117 or so clinical trials
317
851260
3000
U ovom trenutku, postoji oko 117 kliničkih istraživanja
14:14
researching the use of stem cells
318
854260
3000
koja proučavaju mogućnost upotrebe matičnih ćelija
14:17
for liver diseases.
319
857260
2000
u lečenju raznih bolesti jetre.
14:19
What lies ahead?
320
