Chapter 767 The Switch That Goes Back Eight Years
Chapter 767 The Switch That Goes Back Eight Years
"Removal of harmful ingredients can only slow down aging. The real challenge is beneficial ingredients, because beneficial ingredients can achieve rejuvenation." Wei Liqun's tone was calm, as if he was in class.
"Our scientists did a large-scale mouse experiment and captured the key."
"The atrophy of muscle function in aged mice and the sharp drop in the repair speed of damaged muscles are closely related to something called extracellular vesicles!"
"Extracellular vesicles are vesicle-shaped bodies with diameters ranging from 40nm to 1000nm. They have a double-membrane structure and are mainly composed of microvesicles and exosomes. They are widely found in various body fluids and carry a variety of proteins. , DNA, mRNA, miRNA and other substances.”
"In the blood of aging mice, there is a sharp decline in the secretion of special proteins and mRNA from extracellular vesicles, and these proteins and mRNA will be delivered to muscle progenitor cells, a key stem cell that helps regenerate skeletal muscle. "
“Therefore the secretion of extracellular vesicles is weak, ultimately hampering the muscle’s ability to regenerate!”
Electron microscope pictures and various laboratory data appeared on the big screen, as well as fragments of papers.
"To confirm this inference, our scientists extracted serum from young mice, screened out the blood cells and clotting factors, and injected the remainder into older mice with damaged muscles."
"Scientists found that the muscles of these old mice that received serum from young mice recovered significantly faster than those in the placebo group!"
"At the same time, if we further screen out extracellular vesicles in the serum of young mice, the muscle recovery effect will be completely lost."
"At this point, the first beneficial ingredient of the rejuvenating drug is locked!" Wei Liqun emphasized.
"Please enjoy a set of photos below, which are the first beneficial protein ingredients in anti-aging drugs taken by cryo-electron microscopy!"
"It is worth noting that the cryo-electron microscope that took this photo is a brand-new model self-developed by the School of Physics of Frontier University of Science and Technology. It is the strongest cryo-electron microscope in the world with an almost incredible resolution of 0.38 Angstroms! It has greatly broken the The 1 Angstrom limit of traditional diffraction!”
"This photo can easily be published as a top-notch paper, but before we publish it, we want to give consumers a taste of it first. Although there is only one picture, the price of the electron microscope behind this picture has exceeded that of most commercial The total investment in the movie!”
Photos of proteins taken by an electron microscope appeared on the big screen.
A large group of dyed blue spheres are distributed in the vast darkness, like stars in the depths of the universe. The surface of each sphere is covered with countless fine points, and a multi-layered network structure appears, which is dazzlingly complex.
Mysterious and magnificent!
The audience couldn't understand, but they still applauded.
Most netizens can only watch the fun, and 90% of them don’t even know what cryo-electron microscopy is, but that doesn’t stop them from posting “scammers” like it’s raining in the live broadcast room.
But there are also some biologists and applied physicists watching the live broadcast with great interest. The former are those who use electron microscopes, and the latter are those who build electron microscopes. This bizarre number of 0.38 Angstroms will make many professionals jump in shock!
The resolution of the world's top electron microscopy equipment hovers around 1.2 angstroms, and many authorities believe that equipment lower than 1 angstrom is impossible to achieve.
As a result, a 0.38 angstrom photo popped up in front of everyone. In the eyes of industry insiders, it is undoubtedly a ghost story. It is equivalent to a racing driver learning that someone has run a terrifying speed of thousands of kilometers per hour on the track!
Then, a system prompt popped up in front of Song He:
[116 people were frightened by the press conference photos, doubting their life, and their resentment value was +69800! 】
[719 people were shocked by the photos of the press conference and were extremely jealous. The resentment value was +428,000! 】
I have been complaining intermittently for a long time. Many people in the industry were probably busy informing their acquaintances and spreading the word. Soon the number of people complaining exceeded tens of thousands. After all, the number of scholars engaged in biological research and applied physics in the world is only 10,000. Quite a lot.
"Thanks to you, the score line for the School of Physics will increase significantly this year." Xiang Xiaotong joked.
"Yes, this wave of the Institute of Physics belongs to Qin Shihuang's touch switch. It's a big win! We made three small goals by selling equipment to us, and we also got a wave of advertising. It is estimated that the world's top research institutes will come to the Institute of Physics to place orders. ." Song He clicked his tongue, "But one thing is for sure, the equipment they made this time is really good!"
"By the way, if you ask Wei Liqun to publicly talk about the technical details of rejuvenating drugs, aren't you afraid that your friends will copy them?" Xiang Xiaotong was curious.
"It's just to let friends and businessmen copy it!" Song He said with a smile, "The technical details mentioned here are either vague or deliberately misleading, just like the TV commercials selling elderly drugs. The causes mentioned are all correct. , but the medicine given was wrong.”
"So the friend's business copied the press conference and had no choice but to copy it into the ditch?"
"That's right. Even if your business partner thinks the opposite way and walks in the opposite direction, he will still end up in a ditch."
"Okay Song He, you've learned to be cunning."
"The world is dangerous, I have to rape you!"
At the press conference, Wei Liqun continued to talk about the principles of rejuvenation medicine.
The pictures on the big screen were displayed page after page. Wei Liqun was talking seriously about the drug development process, with a confident expression of openly disclosing the technology, which was quite confusing.
"The above is the rough development process of the rejuvenating drug that takes advantage of the yellow generation. It has many twists and turns and costs tens of thousands of dollars, but fortunately the final result is amazing!" Wei Liqun changed the subject, "Now, let's focus on the efficacy!"
"First of all, please note that the following efficacy data are derived from comprehensive inference values from preclinical experiments, animal experiments, and ongoing experiments on 200 human volunteers. They can basically represent the efficacy of the drug!"
"However, since the complete process of clinical trials has not yet been completed, and multi-year data on large-scale medicinal use has not yet been formed, there may be small fluctuations in actual application, but we promise that the fluctuations in drug efficacy will not be too great!"
"First, the effect on the brain!" Wei Liqun raised his voice.
"Under the injection of a standard unit, the 50-year-old middle-aged people who took the "Yellow Generation" rejuvenation drug greatly enhanced their brain plasticity and cognitive ability. They became 5 years younger on average and returned to the brain function of about 45 years old! At the same time, there are Individual volunteers have experienced miraculous effects, becoming up to 15 years younger and restoring their brain function to that of a 35-year-old!"
"The brain plasticity and cognitive abilities of 70-year-olds who took the anti-aging drug became an average of 6.5 years younger. Some elderly volunteers' brains became about 20 years younger, and their brain function was comparable to that of a 50-year-old middle-aged person!"
Clear subtitles were printed on the big screen:
[Brain: more than 5 years younger]
The whole audience was in an uproar, and countless exclamation points were displayed in the live broadcast room.
Wei Liqun did not pause and continued to announce loudly:
"Second, the effect on the internal organs of the body!"
"Under standard unit injection, the detailed data on the internal organs of a 60-year-old man who took the yellow-generation rejuvenating drug is——"
Lines of subtitles were once again printed on the big screen:
[Liver: more than 10 years younger]
[Blood: Younger than 12 years old]
[Heart: Younger than 6 years old]
[Pancreas: Younger than 5 years old]
[Recovery ability of muscle tissue: more than 10 years younger]
"At the same time, the lungs, stomach, intestines, and immune system are also significantly rejuvenated. However, the clinical data are currently too sparse and will not be announced for the time being. They will be published in the drug instructions and the Chenghuang Company's official website in the future!"
"We calculated the comprehensive rejuvenation degree of each part of the body and finally gave you an estimate!" Wei Liqun said loudly.
"The standard unit uses the rejuvenating medicine that can make middle-aged and elderly people about 8 years younger!"
"This is the medicine that takes advantage of the yellow generation to rejuvenate their youth!"
"Give everyone a switch to turn back time. If you press it, your body functions can go back to 8 years ago!"
Wei Liqun's excited voice became louder and louder, and finally he almost shouted into the microphone!
The atmosphere at the press conference was completely boiling. The shocked and excited audience stood up one after another. The applause was like a stormy wave. The expressions on everyone's faces were like witnessing a miracle!
The barrage in the live broadcast room has been so dense that it is difficult to make out a single word, and only countless exclamation marks and question marks can be vaguely seen.
The news media has already prepared the articles, and quickly sends out press releases one after another. As soon as they are posted, they quickly hit the hot search list!
However, a large amount of resentment was displayed in front of Song He's eyes, probably by some jealous friends.
They are all old foxes who have been struggling in the pharmaceutical market for many years. As soon as Chenghuang's anti-aging drug was released, friends and businessmen all knew what a terrible impact it would have on the anti-aging drug market. I am afraid that even many health care product companies They will also suffer heavy losses!
The mood of many friends and businessmen at this moment is probably the same as that of candle manufacturers who watched the advent of light bulbs. They were frightened and angry.
The applause lasted for a long time and finally subsided.
Wei Liqun had a glistening layer of sweat on his forehead and his face was red. He announced this epoch-making drug to the world. As the chairman of the company, he naturally couldn't hide his excitement.
On the big black screen behind him, a huge white figure 8 stood proudly. Countless media were snapping pictures with their cameras in the front row. This scene will undoubtedly become tomorrow's front page photo, and may even win some journalism awards.
"After talking about the general efficacy, let's talk about some details." Wei Liqun said.
"When I was just talking about efficacy, I mentioned one word many times, standard unit, which is the dosage of the drug."
"The specific value is to inject 50 ml every other month, which can maintain the effect stably."
"In addition to the standard unit, there is also an enhanced unit. Injecting 50 ml every two weeks will have a slightly better effect. Young people are about 9 years old, which is basically the limit of this therapy. There is no point in injecting more, and there may even be unknown side effects."
"The dosage is determined based on the attenuation of the drug's efficacy. After each injection is completed, the drug's efficacy will begin to show a significant attenuation trend after one month, so it is necessary to replenish the dose in time."
"But it should be noted that the attenuation period of the drug's effect is actually very long. The half-life currently measured is one year, which means that if you take an injection, the effect of the drug will still be there one year later, but your body's functions will probably only be younger. Four years old.”
A series of curves appeared on the big screen, which were graphs of the attenuation of drug efficacy at different injection volumes, making it clear at a glance.
There was a moment of silence in the barrage, and the audience looked up at the curve.
Obviously, everyone is already calculating the interval between injections. The price of rejuvenating drugs is definitely very expensive, so everyone needs to estimate the best cost-effectiveness.
Is time priceless? No, time also has a price.
If you have to burn too many years of savings to stay young for a short period of time, how many people are willing to do so?
"Now that the efficacy of the medicine has been introduced, let's move on to the aspect that everyone is most concerned about, the price!" Wei Liqun said.
