Chapter 842:STAR Cell Mechanism

"Hahaha, I didn't expect you to pretend to be a researcher in the research meeting of the Institute of physico-Chemical Institute of Didu University!"

At night, Lin Xiuyi and Zhong Xiong sat in a small wine house, drinking beer and talking about the fun things that happened during the day.

“Oh, that’s a hard thing to say about!If I say that, just because I was suspicious of the death of Professor Jialai Xiu Shu's student and assistant, the death of the young man, I rushed to the Didu University Institute of Physical and Technological Research to investigate.However, because the suicide note of Asa Liyang man only explained the work-related things, I suspect that 89 of the ten or nine times of this suicide note were actually forged, and the person who forged this suicide letter is likely to deliberately avoid this content because he does not know much about the family situation of Asao Liyang.

“So... do you think that someone inside the institute killed Mr. Shallley?”

"Yes, but ... I think it is very likely that Miss Deyong, of Sumitomo Pharmaceuticals, will also be involved."

“D. . . . . . . . . . . . She was so cute, how could she do such a thing, absolutely not!Oh . . . she is just as lovely as Miss Mumami in the garden!”

Hearing Lin Xiu's doubts about the poetry of Deyong, Zhong Xiong could not help but think of the beautiful lady who had just spoken at the conference, and her eyes could not help showing the feelings of admiration and compassion.

“Cough...crysant!That... we still don't say this, that... Zhong Xiongjun, you should know more about the STAR cells?"

“Hi, old man!Although my research is in the field of gene editing, but ... STAR cells or something, I think I can still explain one or two to you!"

"That ... in fact, you don't have to use honors for me, about your age, you are relatively old, and you were admitted to Kagoshima University two years earlier, so... you told me to cultivate a king!" 」

“Wouldn’t that be rude?After all, you were defeated by a group of East in the civil service exam, and you became a national civil servant who was envied by everyone!Your story, even after so many years, is still circulating on the campus of Kagoshima University, and has now completely become a legendary figure that inspires future generations.”

“Oh, all right!The hustler does not mention the bravery of the year, the civil service exam, in fact, there are a lot of luck elements, so... you still let me go!"

When he heard the bear Tong say his deeds of that year, a look of worship, Lin Xiu's face could not help but feel hot.So he picked up the beer bottle to fill the other party with beer, and then changed the topic and asked:

"I also asked the bear predecessor to explain the specific situation of the STAR cell for me in detail, please!"

"Since the seniors are interested, well, please forgive me for being rude!"Speaking of STAR cells, it is necessary to mention the pioneering paper that a doctoral student at Harvard University once published a ten-year time ago!”

“Is that...the paper on the retina of a mouse?”

"Well, how can you call that a paper that a real genius!"

“I’m sorry, but please continue to introduce me.”

"All right!Oh, yes, if I said so, perhaps you can't feel how brilliant Professor Garry was that year.“Do you know what stem cells are?”

"Strictly . . . if you know a little, forget it, you'd better be patient to explain it to me!"

"Well, all right!The so-called stem cells refer to those pluripotent cells with the ability to self-replicate.Under certain conditions, it can differentiate into multiple functional cells.The newborn was born with the blood of the umbilical cord, you know.”

“I’m not married yet, so... this is the first time I’ve heard of it!”

“Doesn’t that mean civil servants are in high jeopardy?”

“That... let’s talk about it!”

“I’m sorry, I just ran away again!”

Zhong Xiong heard Lin Xiuyi's reminder, and was embarrassed to raise a glass to take a drink, and then continued to explain to the other party.

"The reason why umbilical cord blood is preserved is because it contains many blood stem cells that can be converted into mature blood cells.These hematopoietic stem cells can be used to treat specific diseases, and we cannot extract the hematopoietic stem cells in it without cord blood.But STAR cells are completely different...”

“different?”

"Hi...STAR cells, in fact, super artificial stem cells made by ordinary human cells that have been differentiated through special technology, and their ability to differentiate can theoretically be transformed into all human organs and tissues, and even comparable to human embryonic stem cells!"More importantly, because the STAR cell itself is made from ordinary somatic cells, it does not have to face the social and ethical pressures that must be undertaken when studying embryonic stem cells.

“That’s...克隆ing or something!”

“You’re so smart, you know that!”

“And then what?Was it because of the creation of such a special super cell that it became famous?”

“Hi there!However, because the research work has just begun, the STAR cell retinal transplant surgery cultivated by Professor Calai is actually carried out in mice, so ... all these years, the Institute of Physical and Technological Research of Didu University has been working on how to apply this technology to humans.”

“So... today’s workshop is really just a promotion of Sumitomo Pharmaceuticals and the Institute of Physical and Technological Research of Imperial University who wants to apply STAR cells to clinical medicine?”

“Hi, in fact ... a lot of colleagues in the medical community are watching today’s meeting, and I am one of the first-handers of this historic moment, and if this surgery is successful, many diseases that are not currently curable by medical technology will find new solutions because of the technology of STAR cells.”For example, diabetes, and diseases such as heart muscle damage, in front of STAR cells, these are not problems.

“Is Professor Elaine also working on the technology of STAR cells for the treatment of heart disease?”

"Hi, I heard that it will soon be applied to the clinic, it is said that ... only need to cover the heart of the damage area with such a large piece of heart muscle tissue, you can repair the heart's wounds!"

Zhong Xiong said as he put it on the chopsticks and caught a thin piece of radishes to bite off a large piece, and then raised it to Lin Xiuyi's eyes to explain to him.
