Have there been any studies that delve into the effects of C60 on developing babies in pregnant women? Or has anybody used C60 on pregnant mice or rats? I'm curious as to what effect it would have on an unborn child. I also do not want to be taking C60 if in the future I become pregnant if there are no studies on such a topic. I also wonder if C60 can affect a woman's fertility or reproductive organs.

It seems there are more men than women on this forum, so I'm guessing this is why this topic hasn't come up yet, but hopefully somebody will be interested enough to provide input! Thanks!

I think this is a very important question. The issue of potential reproductive effects is the only reason I haven't jumped on board with this stuff myself. If I wasn't living in a tiny apartment I'd get some pet store rats and dose them heavily with c60 over a few breeding generations to see if any problems emerged.

If anyone has any literature on this is also love to see it.

There have not been any C60-OO studies on any humans.Unless you count the one the participants on this board are doing. I wouldn't even think about taking C60-OO if I were planning on getting pregnant. It is experimental. I take it in part because I am 53, and willing to conduct a calculated experiment on myself. I would not take it if I were under 30.

I agree. It has unknown dangers to the fetus, and experiments with radioactive C60 in pregnant rats "demonstrated that [(14)C]C60 crosses the placenta and is transmitted to offspring via the dam's milk and subsequently systemically absorbed." Experiments with embryonic zebrafish have shown "a significant increase in malformations, pericardial edema, and mortality," and while the relevance to C60-EVOO is questionable as they sonicated the C60 in DMSO, this doesn't give any confidence.

Oh wow! Thank you JohnD60 and Turnbuckle for your input! Am I in danger since I have already taken a bit of the C60? Pregnancy most likely won't happen for another 5 years or so (I'm guessing). I will stop altogether for now (until studies come out).

Also, how close are we to conducting C60 experiments on humans?

We're already do it, in an informal way. As for formal trials, I think they are a long way off. Human trials are very expensive, and given the ease with which one can make c60-oo, I doubt that anyone is going to be able to charge enough to recoup the expense of a trial.

Look at how difficult it's been for us to get a rat or mouse experiment going...

Been looking about for any studies on reproductive system effects of c60 in oils but could not find any. There are some more general studies on nanotechnology finding effects that impact embryos but they seem to mostly have to do with nano-tubes, carbon-black, and titanium dioxide which are all know to be toxic, showing the toxic effects pass to the fetus and offspring. I did find one study that mentions fullerenes and sounds promising but I can't tell from the abstract exactly what form they tested... although I was able to preview the figures and c60 is mentioned in one of them:

Silica and titanium dioxide nanoparticles cause pregnancy complications in mice

Here, we show that silica and titanium dioxide nanoparticles with diameters of 70 nm and 35 nm, respectively, can cause pregnancy complications when injected intravenously into pregnant mice. The silica and titanium dioxide nanoparticles were found in the placenta, fetal liver and fetal brain. Mice treated with these nanoparticles had smaller uteri and smaller fetuses than untreated controls. Fullerene molecules and larger (300 and 1,000 nm) silica particles did not induce these complications.

Very nice find, hav! If direct injection of (probably) pristine c60 into pregnant mice does not induce any complications, then it seems unlikely that c60 in any form would cause problems when taken orally in years prior to pregnancy.

I'd still like to know it it'll give me mutant gonads.

I have seen arguments for ROS mediated signaling to be important regulatory factor at development and growth periods of different organism. Normal development does not only mean development of new cells, also the programmed death of unnecessary cells is critical (at right time and at right amount). Second there is re-establishment of epigenetic marks in gametes during the embryonic development, which are then passed on to next generation, this may also play role in cross generational effects of C60 in EVOO during pregnancy. Second critical age may be around 12 years, when games will mature.

Plus I would hypothesize that some of the epicenetic marks are also regulated during embryonic development as a function of conditions in prenatal environment. So at the level of idea there may be the possibility that if You eliminate the oxidative stress during pregnancy then maybe it results in down-regulation of key endogenous antioxidative and related detoxifying systems at epigenetic level.

The study does not say that fullerenes do not induce any complications. The study only states that C60 did not induce any of the complications that the study tested for, specifically if any nanoparticles were found in the placenta, fetal liver and fetal brain.

I don't think the presence of the nanoparticle was the complication they were looking for. The complications listed were "smaller uteri and smaller fetuses." Fwiw, other studies show fullerenes do in fact transport through the placenta to the fetus. There is another study that might reveal more relevant specifics, but unfortunately the free full-text only seems to be available in Japanese (my wife says it looks like a mix of katakana, hiragana, and kangi characters) and the pdf is secured which thwarts pasting it into a translator:

Health effects of nanomaterials on next generation


Both of these papers are looking at particulate forms of fullerenes, ranging in size from tens of nanometers to a micrometer. C60-oo, on the other hand, is a molecular substance (a c60-triglyceride adduct) which is in solution in the oil. In the body, it will be hydrolyzed to a fatty acid adduct via the same metabolic mechanisms used for generic triglycerides. The biological properties of nanoparticulates are very different than solution phase properties. Fullerene nanoparticles may be harmful, but we can't generalize that to solutions like c60-oo.

I agree. Unfortunately there isn't much I can find on prenatal effects of c60 in an oil. Here's another one, but with a c60 reacted with polyvinylpyrrolidone which I think forms a water-soluble fullerene... but maybe similar placenta crossing would be expected if c60/evoo migrates via lipids:

Distribution of carbon-14 labeled C60 ([14C]C60) in the pregnant rats and in the lactating dam

This study demonstrated that [(14)C]C60 crosses the placenta and is transmitted to offspring via the dam's milk and subsequently systemically absorbed.

I used to frequent this board and gave c60oo to my hens for a while in 2012 to see if it would affect their egg laying.  There was no difference to the hens or the eggs as far as I could tell.  I stopped the experiment after I became busy which I will explain in a moment.

 

I have been meaning to check back in with my story but haven't got around to it yet, today I looked in the forum and noticed this thread.

 

I took c60oo, about a tablespoon a week, in the later half of 2012 and early 2013.  In early 2013 I stopped taking c60oo just before starting an IVF cycle.   This cycle yielded one egg, which became an 8-celled embryo on day 3.    The PICSI (Physiological Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection) technique was used to select the sperm since my partner's sperm also had issues.  The embryo was transferred and the blood test two weeks later showed a strong level of hcg (pregnancy hormone).   I was given a risk of 1:55 for Downs Syndrome based on my age, but after the blood tests and measurements taken at the nuchal scan at 13 weeks, my risk was adjusted to 1:1097, which is considered low risk.  Everything went well with my pregnancy and our son was born in Jan 2014.  He is now 12 weeks old, big smiles every day, and everything normal so far. 

 

I was told by several fertility specialists that my chances of ever having a baby with my own eggs was 1-2%, due to my age (41 at time of successful cycle) and undetectable AMH (this indicates egg reserve levels).   I have done cycles in my late 30's where embryos did not divide past a few cells.   Several doctors urged me to use donor eggs, some of them were quite aggressive and refused to let me do IVF with my own eggs.  Now my partner and I have our own genetic child from my own egg and his sperm, so a big up-yours to all those doctors. 

 

I did not take c60oo while actually pregnant and have not resumed since breastfeeding.   However I wonder if c60oo may have improved the mitochondria in my egg.  I was taking other supplements such as coq10 and PQQ, which may have helped, or it all could just be random luck.

Hi Chook, looks like you've been busy! Congratulations on the birth of your son. I think you might be on to something with the idea that c60oo may have improved the mitochondrial function of your egg. Poor mitochondrial function will stop the development of the embryo at an early stage, but embryos with good mitochondrial function continue to develop. (a recent paper showing this in mice)  While we don't know that c60oo was involved in your success, it's plausible.  The fact that you had worse luck with younger eggs suggests that the odds were pretty poor, as the doctors predicted, but they don't know about c60. 

 

I wonder if your son is the world's first c60 baby?

Congratulations on your childbirth!

 

And your victory in having your baby your way, in spite of those "doctors."

 

A study found that "older" women taking up to 600 mg of CoQ10/day experienced improved egg quality and fertilization rates, so it's entirely possible that your taking those supplements - and C60 - helped.

 

I hope you're taking plenty of omega-3 fats during lactation, as well as optimal potencies of essential nutrients, as they can only improve your babies chances of a long healthy life.

 

I'm writing a book about healthy pregnancy, so I find your experience fascinating!

 

Best wishes.

Chook12, congratulations and thanks for the post!

 

One question: did your partner also take C60OO before the pregnancy?

 

 

 

Yes, he took it too.  He had a semen analysis in Mar 2013, but there was no great improvement to a previous analysis - still had low count and poor morphology.

 

One difference with the successful cycle is that PICSI was used to select the sperm.   On previous cycles we had only used ICSI (the scientist chooses a sperm based on appearance and injects it into the egg).   With PICSI (http://www.cityferti...njection-picsi/), the sperm that bind to hyaluronan (HA) are separated out and used for ICSI.  

 

It is possible that PICSI helped choose a good sperm for my one egg.

If C60 did have anything to do with it, I would think that as sperm cells are made much more frequently, a man would have to be on it at the time of conception for it to make a difference for him.

Hi Chook12 - 

 

This is such an interesting story. I likewise have undetectable AMH and so would not really be a candidate for IVF with my own eggs. To make things more complicated, my partner does not want to do any unnatural interventions (like IVF or even tamer), which I respect. 

 

I have read some astounding reports of fertility clinics using LDN (low dose naltrexone) that have produced babies despite low and undetectable AMH. So I have done 4.5mg capsules for 6 months and then now take liquid in a slightly smaller nightly dose. (For the record, I am not classifying this as an "unnatural intervention" - it's more of a "supplement"). 

 

My instinct was that C60oo might do something similar and complementary. It's not like I want to run out and try this, but I am very, very interested in the fact that you had some C60oo in your system at the time of pregnancy. 

 

I am absolutely on a CoQ10 regiment (high quality 500mg/day for 4 years). Have done all the acupuncture and Chinese herbs (Quing Dong or whatever), various sorts. I eat fermented foods, homemade kefir from the Caucasus mountains, grass fed beef, LCHF (low carbohydrate high fat diet as per the Swedish, focussing on appropriate saturated fats rather than polyunsaturated oils, which is the unfortunate hangup of most conventional ketogenic diet studies). Etc. Etc. 

 

But I would love to hear some follow up about your healthy child, if it's not too personal! I am so happy for your great result.

Risking fetus exposure to C60 would be incredibly irresponsible and just plain stupid. There are no known rewards and the risks are completely unknown and therefore possibly disastrous, even if possible negative outcomes don't manifest in every infant. Anyone who would play so loose with their supplementation is irrationally taking the quality of an entire life in their hands.

The same can be said with virtually all pregnancy interventions and such conceptions are more likely to result in lower quality of life. I'd like to see us do some tests in rats or mice to determine the rate of disease in a control group vs the rate of disease in a C60 experimental group. Anyone interested in leading a fundraiser for this?

I agree that it's very inadvisable to take C60 during pregnancy. We just don't know what it might do. 

 

I also agree that it would be great to get some data, as cryonicsculture is suggesting.
