In the dust-free laboratory of the Medical Department of Sansehuo Headquarters, Lin Hong was currently wearing a white experimental suit. He was fully dressed, and even his eyes were covered with transparent plastic sheets.
His hand wearing experimental rubber gloves was holding a small test tube. The test tube contained a small half tube of light blue liquid. Against the background of the lamp, it scattered light slightly, giving people a very dreamy feeling. a feeling of.
The solution contained in this is the result of Lin Hong's research over a long period of time, a synthetic molecule culture solution called krad51d.
This molecule is a targeted protein molecule that can specifically destroy the activity of a protein molecule called rad51d in cancer cells in the human body. This protein molecule called rad51d is the terminal that promotes the continuous division of cancer cells. granzyme.
Rad51d telomerase can repair the telomeres of cell chromosomes, thereby preventing cells from dying due to excessive telomere damage.
Inhibiting this telomerase can inhibit the unlimited division ability of cancer cells.
In order to find this suitable synthetic molecule, researchers at Sansehuo Medical Laboratory conducted thousands of experiments and tested countless different types of protein molecules before finally cultivating krad51d.
The name of this synthetic molecule was named by Lin Hong. It is very simple. The prefix k in front stands for "kill", which means "kill".
Lin Hong used a syringe to extract the light blue solution from the test tube, and then took the experimental mouse handed over by Si Qian next to him.
This is a mouse that has been infected with tumor cells on its back. There was a large mass of towering tumor tissue, and if it was not treated effectively, the poor mouse would die of organ failure within a few days.
The tip of the injection needle accurately penetrated the back ridge of the mouse without a trace of tremor.
After the white mouse screamed twice, every drop of the blue liquid in the syringe was injected into its body.
The white mouse¡¯s bright eyes were rolling around. It didn¡¯t know what this meant to it, and it didn¡¯t know why the human in front of it wanted to prick it with a sharp object. It twisted its body unconsciously, rubbing its uncomfortable back.
Lin Hong grabbed the white mouse and put it in front of his eyes, looked into its eyes and murmured: "Xiao Bai. Whether you can survive or not depends on your luck."
With that said, he put it back into the cage.
As soon as Xiaobai landed on the ground. He immediately ran back to his warm nest.
It is no longer as active as before. It always feels very tired, wants to sleep at every turn, and even has no interest in eating.
The place that was stung just now is warm and very comfortable, as if something is spreading there.
Si Qian stared at the mouse for a while, then turned around and asked, "Lin Hong, do you think we will succeed this time?"
Having failed countless times, they have long been numb, but. This time, she had high hopes. If she failed again, even she would feel that this matter was impossible to do.
Lin Hong also stared at the white mouse without looking back. He said firmly: "We will succeed!"
He didn¡¯t say anything this time. Anyway, he firmly believes that their efforts will eventually pay off.
As the research progresses, they are getting closer and closer to success.
Neither Lin Hong nor Si Qian left, but stayed directly in the laboratory. They were doing other work while waiting for the results of the ** experiment.
Five hours later, Lin Hong arrived at the mouse house on time. He reached out and caught the white mouse.
The white mouse seemed to be in a worse state of mind at the moment. It stayed motionless in place and was too lazy to move even if someone caught it. After looking at Lin Hong, it continued to take a nap with its eyes slightly squinted.
Lin Hong took the syringe from Si Qian and took some blood samples from the body of the white mouse.
Then he quickly sliced ??the blood sample into slices and observed them under a microscope.
Whether it is the blood of the mouse or the previous protein molecule solution, it has been stained, and these substances can be seen very clearly under the microscope.
The large red cells are cancer cells, while the green spherical objects that are only a few tenths of the size are krad51d protein molecules.
Lin Hong saw that these small green molecules had entered the red cancer cells and were distributed very evenly, forming a circle around the chromosomes.
Lin Hong was slightly relieved. The experimental results were in line with expectations. The cancer cells did not reject this new molecule.
Lin Hong turned to Si Qian and said, "You can proceed to the next step."
Si Qian nodded, took the previous blood sample and walked to the culture equipment nearby, and began to accelerate the in vitro culture of cancer cells.
Originally, if they wanted to wait for the results of the experiment, they only had to wait a few days, and they would be able to directly see the obvious changes in the body of the mice. However, they did not have the patience to wait for such a long time, and they directly extracted the blood from the body, like before cultivating immune cells. In that way, the cancer cells are cultured and given the most suitable temperature and nutrients to accelerate their division.
If the krad51d synthesized this time is effective, it should "alternatively protect" the telomeres of cancer cell chromosomes according to a predetermined process, thereby indirectly inhibiting the impact of telomerase on telomeres and making them look like a normal cell. , after splitting a limited number of times, it will die normally.
Siqian diluted the blood sample, added the prepared nutrient solution and filtered solution, and then placed it in an incubator for cultivation.
The nutrient solution provides nutrients for cells to divide.
The filtered solution mainly kills immune cells so as not to affect the normal division of cancer cells.
The incubator is a special device modeled after the human body environment. The temperature inside is the most suitable temperature for the human body and the most suitable temperature for cell division. At this temperature, the cancer cells in the blood sample are most active. In addition, there are enough nutrients in the solution and there is no harassment and attack by natural enemy immune cells, so they will divide and reproduce at the fastest speed and with the highest efficiency.
This process is many times faster than normal division and reproduction in the human body. The process that originally took several days to complete can be completed in just a few hours in an incubator.
What follows is another excruciating period of waiting.
Lin Hong said to Si Qian: "Go and rest for a while. I'll be fine here."
Si Qian did not refuse. She nodded and said, "Okay, I'll take a nap. If anything happens, call me immediately."
Their project is not a matter of one or two days. Half a year has passed, and they are not in a hurry.
Si Qian left the dust-free laboratory, took off her lab coat in the locker room, and then went to the lounge next door.
Lin Hong continued to study the molecular model of krad51d in his mind. He was already so familiar with this model that he could even dream about it sometimes.
This molecule was actually carefully designed by Lin Hong. It is more like a mechanical component than a biological tissue, except that the material used is biological tissue.
This molecular model has been improved and upgraded countless times so far, and Lin Hong can even control it precisely like a machine.
Once the experiment is successful, the use of this molecule will not be limited to cancer treatment.
While Lin Hong was thinking, a "ding" sound suddenly came from his ear.
It¡¯s time to set up the incubator.
