PENTAGON: ZOMBIE PIGS FIRST, THEN HIBERNATING SOLDIERS

 

 

Around half of U.S. troop fatalities are caused by blood loss from battlefield

injuries. Now, with another 30,000 troops deploying to Afghanistan, the Pentagon

is pushing for medical advances that can save more lives during combat. The

Defense Department’s latest research idea: Stop bleeding injuries by turning

pigs into the semi-undead. If it works out, we humans could be the next ones to

be zombified.

 

Military’s mad-science arm Darpa has awarded $9.9 million to the Texas A & M

Institute for Preclinical Studies (TIPS), to develop treatments that can extend

a “golden period†when injured war fighters have the best chance of coming

back from massive blood loss. Odds of survival plummet after an hour — during

combat, that kind of quick evacuation, triage and treatment is often impossible.

 

The institute’s research will be based on previous Darpa-funded efforts. One

project, at Stanford University, hypothesized that humans could one day mimic

the hibernation abilities of squirrels — who emerge from winter months no

worse for wear — using a pancreatic enzyme we have in common with the

critters. The other, led by Dr. Mark Roth at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research

Center, used nematode worms and rats to test how hydrogen sulfide could block

the body’s ability to use oxygen — creating a kind of “suspended

animation†where hearts stop beating and wounds don’t bleed. After removing

60 percent of the rat’s blood, Dr. Roth managed to keep the critters alive for

10 hours using his hydrogen sulfide cocktail.

 

The next logical step: Try the same thing on pigs. They’ve got a similar

cardiovascular system to humans, and TIPS researchers Theresa Fossum and Matthew

Miller think they can accurately predict human results from the swine trials.

Using anesthetized pigs, the doctors are testing various compounds, some

containing hydrogen sulfide, to find one that can safely keep the hemorrhaging

animals “as close to death as possible.â€

 

With a 15-person team working exclusively on the project, the institute

anticipates successful results within 18 months. “Darpa wants this to happen

yesterday, because it was needed yesterday,†Dr. Miller told Danger Room. Once

the team comes up with the right elixir, it’ll undergo federally mandated

safety testing. After that, the zombie vaccine will be sent to the battlefield

for human application.

 

Dr. Fossum predicts that each soldier will carry a syringe into combat zones or

remote areas, and medic teams will be equipped with several. A single injection

will minimize metabolic needs, de-animating injured troops by shutting down

brain and heart function. Once treatment can be carried out, they’ll be

“re-animated†and — hopefully — as good as new.

 

From rats, to pigs, to troops — to civilians. Dr. Miller anticipates dozens of

medical applications, including the preservation of organs before transplants

and suspension of life-threatening emergencies, like heart attacks and strokes.

“Everybody’s talking about the military use of this, and that’s our focus

now,†he says. “But really, this could be much, much bigger than that.â€
