Chapter 605

Artemisinin? Lupus erythematosus?

Can these two different things be pulled together?

Forgive them for reading less, they are really unexpected.

Of course, before they could understand, Tu Youyou, who was on the floor, said again: "another report I have today is the use of artemisinin to cure lupus erythematosus!"

"As the saying goes, a scientist's inspiration is like that fleeting dove, and in the field of life science, this dove has become that incredible coincidence again and again."

"It's also a coincidence that artemisinin can cure lupus erythematosus. When we tested artemisinin resistant treatment, we took a patient's blood. '"

" in his blood, antinuclear antibody can be positive, rheumatoid factor can be positive, immunoglobulin (IgG, IgA, IgM) can be increased at the same time, and anti ENA antibody can be positive. "

"After further testing and diagnosis, we learned that this patient was a carrier of lupus erythematosus. "

" according to the process, this sample should be invalid, but because of the progress of the test, the sample was finally left and the test was successful. "

"Coincidentally, after adding artemisinin, the virus in the blood decreased significantly."

"In this regard, we started the trial of artemisinin in the treatment of lupus erythematosus."

Hearing this, everyone froze.

If we say that the former discovery, whose scope of action is the whole world, is more reasonable for foreign countries, then the latter achievement is to benefit China.

Throughout China, there are more than one million patients with lupus erythematosus.

Lupus erythematosus, known as incurable disease, throughout the medical community, no one can completely cure him.

Although it is only a skin disease, but the damage is huge, it can cause a variety of complications, such as joint pain, chronic bursitis, hair loss, photosensitivity and so on.

Although it is not lethal, it has a great impact on people's normal life.

If artemisinin can be useful for lupus erythematosus, it will end the embarrassing situation of "no medicine to cure" and let artemisinin benefit more patients.

"The oath report behind me, as before, has the same sample size as before."

"Based on previous clinical observations, I found that artemisinin is effective in treating discoid lupus erythematosus and systemic lupus erythematosus. They are higher than 90% and 80% respectively

More than 50 percent of them are miracles, while more than 80 percent can only be described as magic.

"Gulu..."

Qin Luo carefully swallowed his saliva.

Even if he was the owner of the system, he was a little frightened at the moment.

Tu youyou's achievements are too high.

With a wave, millions of people have been healed, and this has touched the ceiling of life science.

His achievements are comparable to those of Alexander Fleming, who invented penicillin.

Alexander Fleming, a famous American scientist, first discovered penicillin in 1928. Later, the world-famous pathologist Fraulein and biochemist Qian en made further research and improvement, and successfully used them to treat human diseases. They won the Nobel Prize in physiology or medicine.

With the advent of penicillin, mankind has entered a new era of synthetic drugs. His discovery has saved hundreds of millions or even billions of people.

Tu youyou and Fleming, two Nobel laureates, are equally great.
