Chapter 89

"Power bank..."

Hearing Lin Li's statement, Wang Qiang's look became a little strange.

As a coquettish king, she wants to say something to get back her part.

However, after opening her mouth a few times, she suddenly found that she couldn't find any refutation.

Lin Li didn't notice his disciple's inner drama at the moment. He continued:

"Xiao Wang, Hua Xiaomo, you'd better follow up.

The observation time we agreed before was seven days. Now three days have passed. If it is confirmed that she is normal in the next few days

Wear her a fixed electronic bracelet, and then go to Colonel Lin for several people. Give her some opportunities to go out and have a good time. The specific scope of activities will be discussed with colonel Lin at that time. "

When it comes to business, Wang Qiang is still very careful. She quickly wrote down the arrangement in the experiment memo:

"No problem."

Then Lin Li thought of something and asked:

"By the way, it's rare to come to your laboratory... Is there any new progress in Reiki research recently?"

Wang Qiang nodded:

"I was just about to tell you that our team really made some special discoveries. Come with me."

With that, she led Lin Li to a test-bed.

Several groups of closed utensils are placed on the experimental platform, and several glass containers are set in it.

These glass containers are all filled with gas and moss, and some white mice survive in individual containers.

Lin Li noticed that the mice seemed to be bigger than usual and had very thick hair.

In addition, several precision instruments are attached to the inner wall of the vessel, and the flashing indicator lights show that they are recording a lot of data in the vessel all the time.

Wang Qiang entered several passwords in the document storage column beside the console and took out an experimental report about one centimeter thick.

Then she handed the experimental reports to Lin Li, pointed to the glass containers and explained:

"Team Lin, the 11% unidentified gas we found when we first arrived at the Da Mo world is now 100% sure to be Reiki.

And according to our detection, Reiki is of great benefit to the growth and development of animals and plants.

For example, these little white mice we brought from home have grown by 20% and their hair has become very vigorous and dense due to the infiltration of air containing aura.

In addition, we also did the experiment of removing TERC components in mice, but three days after removing TERC components, we observed a potential phenotype of inclined HSC lineage.

In other words, Reiki can promote the production of telomerase in organisms to a certain extent! "

Hear the word telomerase.

The standing pupils shrink again.

He took a deep breath, concentrated and carefully read the experimental report made by Wang Qiang and his team.

Students who have studied biology should know.

Human cells actually have an upper limit on division.

In addition to germ cells, nerve cells and cancer cells, the upper limit of division of ordinary human cells is generally 50-60 times.

Cell division is controlled by a substance called telomere.

as everyone knows.

Telomeres are located at both ends of eukaryotic linear chromosomes and are composed of highly repetitive DNA sequences (TTAGGG in humans) and telomere binding proteins.

At present, it is found that telomere binding protein mainly has six subunits, namely TRF1, TRF2, TIN2, Rap1, Pot1 and tpp1, which together form the telomere protective protein complex.

Because the direction of DNA replication must be from 5 'to 3', telomeres will be shortened every time DNA replicates, that is, every time a cell divides.

The length of telomeres in human cells is about 8000-10000 BP. They divide every 2.4-2.6 years, and each division will shorten telomeres by 30-100 BP.

Once telomeres are depleted, when telomeres can no longer shorten, cells can no longer divide.

Cell apoptosis.

Scientists inferred that the limit of human life is 130 years old.

So

A person's aging process is actually that his telomeres are getting shorter.

When it comes to telomeres, we have to talk about another concept:

Telomerase.

Telomerase was first discovered in cervical cancer cells in 1989 by Professor Morin of maple leaf country, who secretly photographed the old skin of students * * with the world's top ten ultra-precision experimental camera in the laboratory.

And made a major breakthrough in 2009.

The three winners of the 2009 Nobel Prize in biology and medicine won the prize because they discovered the mechanism of telomerase protecting chromosomes.

Telomerase is a riboprotease that can prolong the end of telomere. The main components are RNA and protein.

It contains primer specific recognition sites, which can use its own RNA as a template to synthesize telomere DNA and add it to the end of chromosome to prolong telomere, so as to prolong cell life and even make it

Immortalization.

Yes, of course.

At present, the research on telomerase in the scientific community is still very shallow. It can only be determined that it has an obvious effect on aging, and there is no mature means to generate and activate it in large quantities.

Once the relevant code of telomerase is cracked, it should not be a big problem to see Conan's ending in this life.

It's even possible to see China break into the world cup?

Cough

Back to the lab.

According to Wang Qiang, Reiki can really promote the production of telomerase.

So at least the question of why practitioners live a very long life can be explained.

The life span of Qi training period is limited to be higher than that of ordinary people.

Even those who practice the ninth layer of Qi will die of Qi and blood when they are in their nineties.

However, once the realm breaks through the foundation period, the longevity of practitioners will continue to increase.

For example, Wei Siming, who used to build the foundation for nine floors, would not have been a problem if he had not attacked the shackles of building the foundation.

Let alone jiedan and Yuanying.

It is said that the overhaul walkers in Yuanying territory have almost no pressure to live for five or six hundred years.

In some folklore, you can often hear the deeds of the so-called millennium old monster.

For example, the famous long-distance runner surnamed Han, the pockmarked son surnamed Wang, and the mysterious figure named Luo Yinglong

In short, after the foundation period.

The life span of practitioners has been completely separated from the category of human beings.

But from the perspective of telomerology.

When these practitioners break through the shackles of the realm, they produce a large number of activated telomerase.

Thus, telomere decay was reversed, the upper limit of cell division times was increased, and finally the life span far exceeded that of ordinary people.

In fact, this can make sense - or that's what all the current speculation about telomerase thinks, but scientists have not found the one that can activate telomerase α Matter, and Reiki did it directly.

Or in a sense

The reason why scientists on earth have been busy for more than ten years has not found this kind of information α Is it because there is no aura on earth?

Think of it here.

Lin Li could not help but pinch the report in his hand.

If so.

The importance of the great Mo world will be greatly reduced again!

Yes, of course.

At present, these are just groundless guesses, and even have a certain degree of subjective bias.

To confirm the accuracy of these guesses, the plant team... Or the whole life experiment base, still has a long way to go.

Then he took a deep breath and asked Wang Qiang:

"Xiao Wang, did your team find anything else in Reiki?"

Wang Qiang smiled brightly, revealing a pair of small tiger teeth:

"Yes!"
