Vol 2 Chapter 1277: Suspected Alien Life __T Diphage
"Oh, this is a good research topic." Wu Hao's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he couldn't help but admire him.
"So, you have achieved good results in this regard."
"Yes." Fang Renzheng nodded: "If there is a safer and faster treatment method, then we will save countless patients suffering from Helicobacter pylori infection. This item alone, I think it can be expected Hit the Nobel Prize.
Even if it can't be obtained, this is a medical achievement that is enough to make all mankind boil.
Compared with meaning, its economic value is more significant. If we develop this kind of specific medicine, it means that we have directly or indirectly eliminated the common drugs and therapies on the market for Helicobacter pylori infection in the stomach.
With such a huge population of infections in the world, the gold content of this drug and therapy patent alone is already an incalculable figure. "
Hearing Fang Renzheng’s words, Wu Hao shook his head and said, “Although it is said that, it is very difficult to develop this kind of special effect medicine. You have to know that all the major pharmaceutical giants all time now have targets in this field. Research it.
Compared with these pharmaceutical giants, we are still just fledgling small workshops. "
Fang Ren nodded and said: "Of course we know the gap between us and these pharmaceutical giants and top laboratory research teams.
However, in the research in this field, in fact, everyone is basically the same, and there is not much breakthrough. What everyone is currently studying is how to use specific drugs to directly kill Helicobacter pylori.
Although this method is straightforward, it is very violent. It is not only powerful, but also easy to harm the innocent.
So we are thinking, is there a drug specifically targeting Helicobacter pylori in the stomach. "
At this point, Fang Renzheng laughed: "Don't say, after our careful verification, there really is one.
This is a small molecule compound zinc linolenate developed by a team of experts and professors from the Shicheng Medical University. It is said that it specifically targets Helicobacter pylori in the stomach and has good effects.
Although related papers have been published for many years, this drug has not been put into use so far. And regarding its reliability and safety, there hasn't been a true report so far.
In our opinion, this small molecule compound zinc linolenate is still a chemical substance, and it still hasn't gone out of the traditional theoretical thinking system.
How to find a safer and more effective removal treatment method is a question that has been explored and researched all the time. "
At this point, Fang Renzheng led Wu Hao and the others into a brightly lit demonstration hall, and then he continued to introduce them to Wu Hao.
Just when our research was at a deadlock and there was no progress at all, a short science video and article inspired us, or in other words, gave us instant inspiration.
"This is a video introducing the T2 bacteriophage."
"T2 phage?" Hearing this name, everyone present couldn't help but become curious.
" Yes, T2 bacteriophage, which belongs to a strain of bacteriophage, belongs to the T-line bacteriophage. It is a virus that specifically parasitizes bacteria.
Its appearance is like a tadpole, the head is icosahedron, the outer shell is made of protein, and the head is wrapped with DNA as genetic material. Because the appearance is so special, it is very different from the bacteria and viruses we have seen, so this T2 phage has been suspected by many people to be an alien life invading the earth.
When it infects the host, the tail sheath shrinks, and the DNA from the head is injected into the cell through the hollow tail, thereby synthesizing the progeny phage from the substance in the host.
This T2 phage has a characteristic, that is, it specifically selects parasitic Escherichia coli and reproduces very quickly.
It will actively search for the location of E. coli and actively attack. After infecting Escherichia coli, it will use its own genetic material to synthesize its own components and proliferate in large quantities.
When the bacteriophage proliferates to a certain number, E. coli is lysed, releasing a large number of bacteriophages, which is a kind of potent bacteriophage.
Therefore, many scientists are now studying this T2 phage, hoping to use it to treat some cases of E. coli infection. "
At this point, Fang Renzheng smiled and changed his tone and said, "However, we have seen infinite possibilities in it, or got inspiration.
Then, can we also cultivate such a bacterium, or virus, specifically targeting Helicobacter pylori in the stomach to kill Helicobacter pylori in the stomach?
Our research has always been limited by our own thinking, why can't we jump out and look at it.
Helicobacter pylori in the stomach is a kind of bacteria, so why can't we use bacteria for each other's bacteria and viruses for each other's viruses? "
"Use bacteria to target the other side's bacteria, use viruses to target the other side's virus. To put it bluntly, it is the germ warfare in the war, the virus warfare." Wu Hao said with a smile: "It's just that you use them in the human body and treat people. The body becomes a battlefield."
"You are right."
Fang Ren nodded: "Since animals in nature have natural enemies, don't these bacteria and viruses have natural enemies?
That being the case, why don't we use their natural enemies to deal with these bacteria and viruses. Wouldn't it be greener, safer, and more effective?
In this way, why should we use these chemical ingredients?
Our ancestors have said that it is three-point medicine. This chemical drug, even if the side effects are small, will have side effects, which is a kind of harm and potential threat to human health.
And the natural enemy of this kind of bacteria is a virus, it is a bacteria. They are specially fed with bacteria and do not have any harm to the human body. It can be said to be a safer and greener treatment method. UU reading www.uukanshu.com"
Hearing Fang Renzheng's answer, Yang Fan couldn't help but shook his head: "The natural enemies you said to kill bacteria are either bacteria or viruses.
Then how do you ensure that these natural enemies and bacteria can be sufficiently safe and reliable so that they will not cause harm to the human body while attacking harmful bacteria.
If these bacteria and viruses evolve or mutate to change the target of attack, wouldn't it cause more serious harm to the human body?
You have to know that bacteria are prokaryotes. Compared with eukaryotes, DNA lacks nuclear membrane protection, so it is more susceptible to damage and mutation.
And the reproduction speed of bacteria is very fast, generally one generation of reproduction can be produced in 20 minutes. If conditions are right, a single bacterium can multiply into trillions a day and night.
With such a high reproduction speed, DNA molecules are duplicated every time they reproduce, so replication errors are more likely to occur, which greatly increases the probability of mutation.
In this way, who can guarantee that these bacteria or viruses will change the characteristics of these bacteria in the process of reproduction and mutation, so that they will change their attack targets and choose to attack other bacteria, even human parts.
And such mutated bacteria and viruses have no effective targeting methods, so they will be more harmful to the human body. "
