Chapter Seventy-Three: Success
After the medicine was made, Yang Xin did not give the medicine directly to Yang's mother, but discussed the treatment plan with the experts He Qingqing helped invite.
It is true that this drug can improve the body's immunity, but after the effect of the drug, a large number of immune cells will die.
He didn't know what would happen to the body if a large number of immune cells died, so he needed to consult with an experienced doctor and then prevent it in advance.
He Qingqing invited him to invite an expert from the oncology department of Modu Hospital, named Li Hongtao, who is in his fifties and has rich experience in treating tumors.
After listening to Yang Xin's detailed explanation of his drug, Dr. Li Hongtao thought for a while and said to him: "Listening to what you say, your medicine can indeed alleviate the condition of advanced cancer patients, but if a large number of human cells die, whether it is cancer cells or immune cells, it will produce a strong inflammatory reaction, and in severe cases, it will become sepsis." ”
"Moreover, the dead cells in the human body will release toxins, which requires immune cells to phagocytosis, if a large number of immune cells die, I am afraid that the human body will be dangerous, and sepsis is likely to form. ”
In the end, Li Hongtao thought about it for a while and said: "My consideration is that if your medicine really has the effect you said, we can not rush to cure the patient for a while, we will treat your medicine as an immune drug, and we can slowly treat the patient." ”
Hearing Dr. Li Hongtao's words, Yang Xin shook his head, and then said: "I'm afraid this will not work, because the patient's cancer cells have spread to the whole body, and it will not have any effect if he takes less medicine." ”
Yang Xinchaoli Hongtao said: "Taking a small amount of this drug, the immune system will also be activated, but the activated immune cells may not be able to kill cancer cells, and after the active period has passed, the immune cells will still die in large quantities, and not only will not kill the cancer cells, but will still make the immune system collapse." ”
After listening to Yang Xin's words, Li Hongtao fell into deep thought.
After a while, he said, "If that's what you say, we'll need to exchange a lot of blood for the patient later." ”
"And, anti-inflammatory treatment is also needed, as far as I know, last year, a professor of hydrogen biology at Peking University researched a hydrogen anti-inflammatory drug, which is said to be able to effectively control the body's inflammatory response, which is better than all anti-inflammatory drugs on the market. Li Hongtao said to Yang Xin.
Without waiting for Yang Xin to speak, he continued: "I don't know the specific efficacy of your medicine, and I don't dare to treat it casually, but we can use animal experiments first to see if the sequelae of animals after taking this drug can be cured by my method, and if so, we will use it on Ms. Yang's body." ”
"But my mother Yang only has less than a month to go. Yang Xin was a little hesitant, he didn't know how long the animal experiment would take, but Yang's mother's illness would get worse and worse, so he was afraid that he would not be able to wait for the animal experiment to be successful.
"You can rest assured, we will first use ordinary immunotherapy to maintain Ms. Yang's illness, as long as you are willing to spend money, you should be able to give us three months. Li Hongtao said to Yang Xin.
The immunotherapy he refers to is a treatment for cancer tumors that has recently become popular all over the world.
Cancer cells are inhibitory to immune cells, and immunotherapy is to reactivate immune cells with immune drugs, so as to achieve the effect of allowing immune cells to kill cancer cells.
With this therapy, people with advanced cancer have a small chance of surviving for more than five years.
"Money is a small matter, as long as there is enough time, just do what you said Dr. Li, don't you know what I need to prepare here?" Yang Xin asked Li Hongtao.
"I need some monkeys for experiments, and some of these institutions have special training, and as long as you have money, you can buy them. Li Hongtao said to Yang Xin: "Also, you also need to match a little more of this medicine, I want to use it for experiments, I'm afraid it won't be enough." ”
"Okay, I'll figure it out. Yang Xin nodded.
Subsequently, he made a phone call to He Qingqing and asked her to help people buy some experimental monkeys and come back.
The next day, more than a dozen monkeys for the experiment were sent by He Qingqing.
Next, expert Li Hongtao began to conduct animal clinical experiments on these monkeys.
The main thing is to give the monkey the medicine made by Yang Xin first, and when the monkey begins to have sequelae after the effect of the drug, he will take various drug treatments to see if he can alleviate the sequelae.
So far, Yang Xin can only provide more of this medicine, and other treatments need to rely on Dr. Li Hongtao.
If you can save Yang's mother, it is the best, if you really can't save it, Yang Xin has no choice.
So he went back to school after two weeks in Taizhou.
Dr. Li Hongtao is in charge of Yang's mother's treatment, and it is better for him to teach students to complete tasks as soon as possible to earn points.
If he has three hundred points, he can directly redeem drugs for the treatment of advanced lung cancer, and he doesn't need to rely on luck to treat Yang's mother like now.
After returning to school to teach students, Yang Xin did not forget to call Taizhou City every day to inquire about Yang's mother's condition.
The things he couldn't let go of before were also put down when Yang's mother was dying, and he only hoped that Yang's mother's illness could be controlled.
Not to mention cured, as long as it can be controlled, it is good to be able to let Yang's mother live for a few more years.
As for the little money spent on treatment, it was nothing to him.
[System Prompt]: Congratulations to the host for completing the task, and the task reward will be issued, please pay attention to check.
On this day, after completing the assessment test for Yang Yangyang, Yang Xin received a prompt from the system to complete the task.
Yang Yangyang was in the sixth grade at the age of 12, so to complete his side quest, the system only gave ten points.
However, ten points is not too little, plus the points from Liu Zichen's completion of the task last time, minus the ten points from the purchase of prescriptions, he has more than thirty points.
He was not going to spend the more than 30 points, but was going to save them.
In the future, after Liu Zichen and Zhou Qian's high school courses are completed, he still needs to exchange university knowledge to teach them, and he can't do it without points.
Just over a month after Yang Xin returned to school, Dr. Li Hongtao finally brought Yang Xin good news.
That is, he has been successful in experimenting with monkeys, and after dozens of experimental monkeys have died, he has recently redesigned a set of treatment protocols, and finally succeeded in several cases one after another.
After the success of the experiment, the treatment plan can finally be applied to Yang's mother, although there may still be a certain risk, but Yang's mother's condition can not be delayed any longer, because after the cancer cells spread throughout the body, Yang's mother not only has a serious respiratory system, but the cancer cells also make her more and more unable to keep up with the nutrition of the body.
After getting the news, Yang Xin rushed to Taizhou City again, mainly to see Yang's mother again, if this treatment is not successful, maybe this is the last time the two will meet.
For this treatment, Yang Xin couldn't help much, and could only rely on Dr. Li Hongtao.
After seeking the consent of Yang's mother's son, Yang Jun, Dr. Li Hongtao finally began to treat Yang's mother's illness.
Half a month later, the initial treatment was completed.
This treatment was ideal, after Yang's mother took Yang Xin's medicine, there were indeed a series of sequelae, but under the follow-up treatment of Dr. Li Hongtao, they all survived one by one.
After two months of treatment, Yang's mother's immune system gradually returned to normal.
Although the immune system has returned to normal, Yang's mother's lung cancer tumor is still in the lungs, so she still needs to have a lobectomy.
In addition, this time the cancer cells have spread, and many organs have been affected, and it may take a long time to recover.
Despite this, Yang's mother's fate was saved.
As for how many years Mother Yang can survive in the future, it depends on her own creation.
And for a long time in the future, Yang's mother will need to do a lot of follow-up treatment, which will cost a lot.
But as long as you can continue to live, this money is nothing.
PS, I found that many book lovers have misconceptions about cancer, thinking that strengthening the immune system will be worse.
Actually, no, cancer is not curable, the main reason is that cancer cells will form a protein called PD-L1, which is combined with the PD-1 protein on the surface of immune cells, which will make the body's immune system have the illusion that "this is its own person", so that the immune system will let go of cancer cells and let them multiply wildly.
There are many anti-cancer drugs in the world, all of which allow the immune system to recognize cancer cells and then kill them, not that the stronger the immune system, the worse it is, but the stronger the immune system, the better it can cure cancer.
