You might be reading the title of this video and going, umm, huh?

你可能看到這個影片標題，心裡想說，嗯，蛤？

For centuries, people have been looking for ways to live longer and have come up with some pretty wacky ideas along the way.

幾個世紀以來，人們一直在尋找長壽的方法，過程中也想出了一些相當奇特的點子。

But there's one ancient remedy for aging that may hold a small vampire bite sized bit of truth.

但有一種古老的抗衰老祕方，可能藏著一點點像吸血鬼咬一口那樣的真實性。

Scientists have found evidence that young blood can reverse the effects of aging.

科學家發現了年輕血液可以逆轉衰老影響的證據。

有幾個問題，是怎麼做到的？為什麼有效？

If you're living in 17th century Hungary, you may try bathing in virginal blood.

如果你住在 17 世紀的匈牙利，你可能會試著用處女的血來沐浴。

At least that's what one noblewoman may have done.

至少有一位貴婦可能這麼做過。

Elizabeth Bathory, who some believe to be the inspiration for Dracula, was accused of brutally murdering over 600 girls.

伊莉莎白．巴托里，有些人認為她是德古拉的原型，被控殘忍殺害了 600 多名女孩。

And according to legend, she bathed in the blood of her virgin victims in an attempt to recapture her lost youth.

根據傳說，她會沐浴在處女受害者的血液中，試圖找回失去的青春。

Though there isn't any evidence to back up this claim.

雖然沒有任何證據支持這個說法。

I really hope this video doesn't get demonetized.

我真的很希望這支影片不會被取消營利。

Um, anyway, even if she did have evidence, a bloodbath wouldn't be enough to turn back the clock.

嗯，總之，即使她有證據，血浴也無法讓時光倒流。

And before you vampire wannabes get any ideas, drinking blood won't do it either.

還有，在座各位想當吸血鬼的，喝血也沒用。

In order for your body to gain any benefit from young blood, it has to make its way into your circulatory system so it can come into contact with your cells and organs.

你的身體要從年輕的血液中獲益，血液就必須進入你的循環系統，接觸到你的細胞和器官。

The surgical technique called parabiosis, was invented by the scientist Paul Burt.

一種叫做「並生術」的手術技術，是由科學家 Paul Burt 所發明的。

This technique joins together two living things, which Paul did, to see if he could create a shared circulatory system.

這項技術是將兩個生物體連接起來，Paul 就是這樣做的，想看看他能不能創造一個共享的循環系統。

And after decades of tinkering, scientists can successfully join together two mice without them dying in or shortly after the operation.

經過幾十年的研究，科學家們已經能夠成功地將兩隻老鼠連接起來，而且牠們在手術中或手術後不久都不會死亡。

Now scientists are using parabiosis to link the circulatory systems of young and old mice.

現在科學家們正利用並生術連接年輕和年老老鼠的循環系統。

In order to see how young blood affects aging, we actually did a video about it a while back.

為了研究年輕血液對老化的影響，我們之前其實有做過一支影片介紹過了。

They found that this process rejuvenates the cells and organs.

他們發現這個過程能讓細胞和器官恢復活力。

Their muscle, liver and brain cells began dividing and growing again, which is something that slows down with age.

牠們的肌肉、肝臟和腦細胞開始再次分裂和生長，這是隨著年齡增長會減緩的現象。

These results made it clear that the blood of the younger mice contained components associated with aging.

這些結果清楚表明，年輕老鼠的血液中含有與老化相關的成分。

So they set out to find out what they are.

於是他們著手找出這些成分是什麼。

Through just a blood transfusion, scientists found that the blood plasma taken from umbilical cords and young people led to improved brain activity in old mice and further investig to the two proteins within it that were directly responsible.

透過單純的輸血，科學家發現從臍帶和年輕人身上取得的血漿，能改善年老老鼠的腦部活動，並進一步找出其中兩種直接負責的蛋白質。

These could one day be used to treat brain diseases related to aging, such as Alzheimer's.

這些有一天或許能用來治療與老化相關的腦部疾病，像是阿茲海默症。

More importantly, their results were achieved by using human plasma, which provided the validation needed to move on to human trials.

更重要的是，他們的研究結果是透過使用人類血漿達成的，這提供了進行人體試驗所需的驗證。

And some companies are already well on their way to seeing how young blood will reverse aging in human participants does all this sound very weird and extremely unsettling?

有些公司也已經在積極研究年輕血液是否能逆轉人類參與者的老化，這聽起來是不是很奇怪，而且非常令人不安？

There really is no getting around that while vampires are not real, there are people who bloodthirsty.

雖然吸血鬼不是真的，但有些人確實是嗜血的，這點是無法避免的。

Doesn't really make it any less unsettling, but oh well.

這聽起來還是很令人不安，但又能怎樣呢。

Are there any stories from ancient history or modern day that you want me to explore?

古代或現代有沒有什麼故事是你希望我探討的？

有什麼我應該破解或深入研究的嗎？

Or tell me what do you think of all this blood swapping business?

或者告訴我你對這些換血的說法有什麼看法？
