265-rapamycin

In Namibia, the orders for various laser components that Chen Chen needs have already been sent, but it will take a long time to receive the finished products temporarily. After all, Chen Chen needs high-precision laser lenses and other components.

Each of these components is extremely valuable, and the production time is naturally extremely long.

Chen Chen sent bodyguards to accompany his parents to travel around Namibia, and he once again got into the Minaret Experimental Base.

Since Chen Chen's absence for a month, Xiao X has performed a modified T virus injection experiment.

Unfortunately, in that experiment, Chen Chen's clone did not withstand this modified T virus at all, but directly turned into a zombie.

At this time, Chen Chen looked at the isolation room, a whole body rotting, wandering aimlessly, and a zombie similar to Chen Chen, and couldn't help crying or laughing.

"Your Godfather, after this zombie was fused with T virus, we have checked his DNA and found three errors in total."

Xiao X's voice came, "Now that these three errors have been improved and converted into a virus numbered T-002, do we need a second experiment?"

"Go ahead."

Chen Chen nodded. T-002 is the name Xiao X gave to this modified version of T virus. The original T virus was called TYRANT-Virus. According to the first version of T virus genetically modified by Chen Chen, it was named T- 001.

Then T-001 failed, and after another improvement, it became the current T-002.

At this moment, Chen Chen suddenly asked again, "By the way, how many more clones are there?"

"Are you saying that there are no clones injected with T virus?"

Little X asked, "You made a total of five cloned fertilized eggs that were fused with T virus, and five cloned fertilized eggs that had not been injected with T virus. Now there are four clones that have been fused with T virus and have not been injected with T virus. There are three normal clones left."

"Three?"

Chen Chensi asked, “To make ten more normal clones, after all, the cultivation of normal clones takes half a year. Early cultivation will avoid that there are no clones available."

"understand."

After Xiao X agreed, several black knight assistants immediately stepped forward, opened a life incubator, and took out a clone of Chen Chen inside.

After tying the clone to a stretcher and connecting various life-saving equipment, a black knight took out the modified T virus that had been prepared and injected it directly into the clone.

"The clone has normal blood pressure..."

"Heartbeat is normal..."

"The delta wave of the brain wave in a normal sleeping state, the frequency is 1~3Hz, the amplitude is about 20~200μV..."

Xiao X kept reporting the clone's body readings, and Chen Chen was also watching silently with his arms on the side.

But over time, the physiological characteristics of the clones began to change.

"The body temperature of the clone is rising sharply, its immune system is starting to work, and it is competing with the T virus for control of the body!"

"The blood pressure of the clones is rising rapidly. The systolic blood pressure is 180mmHg and the diastolic blood pressure is 140mmHg!"

"The heart rate has accelerated to 120 beats per minute, and it's still rising!"

In this way, two or three hours have passed.

"Well, the clone's heartbeat has stopped, his immune system has collapsed, and he is transforming into a zombie!"

Obviously, the second experiment still failed.

Watching all this silently, Chen Chen suddenly had a flash of inspiration, "By the way, have you tried immunosuppressive agents for the clones?"

"Immunosuppressive agents?" Xiao X asked in surprise.

"Yes."

Chen Chen nodded, "I've been thinking about the reason why our customized T virus can't be fused with the experimental body nowadays, besides genetic problems, is there a certain immune system hindering it?"

"It's like a newly implanted organ in the human body. Various immunosuppressants are needed to reduce rejection and increase the survival rate of the organ implanted in the human body. But if there is no immunosuppressant help, the new implant is implanted in the human body. ’S organs will be rejected because of the immune system’s attack."

Chen Chen continued to explain, "The same is true for this T virus. After all, this virus is customized based on my genes. It stands to reason that there should not be such a violent response. Then it is possible that it is because the immune system resists too much. Strong reason?"

"If an immunosuppressive agent is used, can it reduce the intensity of the battle between the immune system and the T virus in the body, so that the body can support it for a longer time?"

"You can try."

Xiao X replied, "So, do you directly start the third experiment now?"

"Turn it on, as for the choice of immunosuppressive agents..."

Chen Chen thought for a while, "Try rapamycin first, and use it in conjunction with cyclosporin A and FK506."

"understand!"

The so-called rapamycin was actually a compound isolated from a bacteria unique to Easter Island. With the emergence of antibiotics, a wave of searching for new antibiotics emerged in human society.

At that time, the act of searching for various bacterial drugs was called "scientific research." There were many scientific research teams rushing around the world to collect mud from all over the world and separate microorganisms and microbial secondary metabolites from it. In order to find new antibiotics.

In 1964, such a scientific expedition team came to Easter Island.

After this group of scientific researchers arrived on the island, they quickly discovered that the residents on the island were barefoot and raised many horses.

Since it is barefoot, it will definitely cause frequent injuries to the soles of the feet for this reason, and horse dung contains a lot of bacteria and viruses, and raising horses will greatly increase the chance of contracting tetanus. However, after investigation, this scientific research team found that it was resurrected. The residents of Jiedao did not have any infections.

Could it be said that there is really a new type of antibiotic on this island?

So, the scientific expedition team began to dig mud and collect soil samples.

However, when the group of people passed the stone statues on Easter Island, they found that there was a piece of land at the foot of the statue in shadow all the year round. He collected a piece of soil, and after taking it back, after inspection, he found that the soil had antibacterial effect. .

At this point, rapamycin was discovered.

Subsequently, rapamycin experienced several storms. First, as an antibiotic, it was found to have the side effects of suppressing immunity, and then it was looked at by surgeons, and finally its true role was positioned-a better one. , Immunosuppressive agents with less side effects.

However, since 2006, many scientists have once again discovered that rapamycin has the ability to extend lifespan. A large number of laboratories have conducted related studies and discovered that everything from nematodes to worms, to fruit flies and even mammalian mice can be thundered. Paamycin extends life!

The most notable of these is the research on mice. Experiments have found that for mice that are about to die, taking rapamycin also has the effect of forcibly extending their lifespan, which almost no drugs can do.

The specific performance is that rapamycin can slow down the hardening speed of tendons and the degeneration speed of liver function, and these two characteristics are precisely the two major signs of aging.

Scientists have also discovered that restricting calorie intake can delay cell aging to a certain extent. A series of human body reactions will switch the body to a "low speed gear", allowing more energy to be used for long-term survival. Vegetarian can also play a similar role...
