Release date: 2016-07-14 According to foreign media reports, a research team at Harvard University recently used mouse heart cells in combination with breast augmentation silicone to create an amazing "live" robot. The robot's appearance, bending and swimming movements are very similar to the stingrays. It consists of a four-layer structure: a silicone matrix that forms the body, a skeletal system of gold wires, a second layer of silica that isolates bones, and 200,000 genetically engineered mouse heart cells. When exposed to light of a specific wavelength, these cells begin to contract, thus mimicking the swimming action of the stingray. In addition, this “biological life form†can automatically follow the light source as it swims in the eutrophic fluid (maintaining cell survival), allowing it to be remotely controlled. This biorobot is currently unable to survive in an environment outside the laboratory. Even if it does not require a special nutrient solution, because mouse cells do not have an immune system, they are immediately attacked by bacterial and fungal pathogens in a non-sterile environment. But the project's lead researcher, Kit Parker, said he hopes the research will lead others to develop a complete, genetically engineered heart. “Robot experts and engineers can find different ways to use biological cells as building materials,†Parker said in an interview with the media. “Marine biologists can better understand why muscle tissue under light is built in a specific way.
