"Just a few minutes ago, one of my students came to me with a computer and showed me a news story with the headline 'Hair Growth Hurdles Overcome'.

As you all know, I am engaged in hair growth research myself, and several doctoral students under my command are also working on this topic, and I dare say that I am an authority on hair growth and the treatment of hair loss.

What made me the most angry and angry about this news report was that they actually claimed to have developed a drug molecule that could solve cicatricial hair loss.

What is cicatricial alopecia? Maybe some friends don't know, it's okay, I'm here to popularize it for you.

Cicatricial alopecia refers to localized hair loss that occurs suddenly in the hair area of the body, and the hair follicle epithelium is replaced by connective tissue, resulting in permanent hair loss.

That's right, cicatricial alopecia is permanent hair loss, once it is suffered, the hair follicle is necrotic, except for the surgical transplantation of hair follicles, no matter how the medicine is used, it is difficult to make the hair grow back.

However, this company, called Zhongrun Pharmaceutical Company, is ashamed to say that the HBRM molecule developed in their laboratory can treat cicatricial alopecia.

It's ridiculous, it's just ridiculous, and anyone with a modicum of common sense knows that it's impossible.

I won't say more, anyway, I'm very angry now, and I hope that the relevant departments can take some action after seeing my Weibo.

In addition, please also forward it to let more friends around you know about this fraud and scam, be vigilant, and don't rush to the doctor, so that criminals have the opportunity to make black money. ”

In addition to the text, Zhao Bingsen also found the news report and took a screenshot of the text on it and pasted it below the text to make his Weibo look more convincing.

After posting Weibo, after three or four minutes, Zhao Bingsen refreshed it and found that there were hundreds of messages in the comment area.

"Support Professor Zhao in the front row!"

"Don't be angry, pay attention to your body. ”

"Many companies nowadays, in order to make money, are becoming more and more bottomless. ”

"Without further ado, it has been forwarded. ”

"I hate this kind of fake news the most. ”

"Saying so deadly, isn't Lao Zhao afraid of being slapped in the face? ”

"I was shocked, the first time I saw Professor Zhao post this kind of Weibo, what kind of angry thing did this company do. ”

The two top academic journals in the world are Science in the United States and Nature in the United Kingdom.

Founded in 1869, Nature is an international comprehensive science weekly with a high reputation in the academic community, with the mission of reporting major discoveries and breakthroughs in the scientific world.

Among the many comprehensive scientific journals, Nature is the most cited journal in the world, and its authority is beyond doubt.

The scholars who have published their papers in the journal Nature are all well-known experts from all walks of life.

Countless researchers are proud to publish their papers and research results in the journal Nature.

London.

The busy atmosphere in the editorial office of Nature magazine fills every corner of the editorial office.

As editor-in-chief, John Hunter is busy from morning to night, reading and approving many manuscripts from all over the world every day, which is really a blessing and a headache for a person who loves science.

However, in recent months, in addition to papers such as "In vivo imaging of mitochondrial membrane potential in non-small cell lung cancer", "ERK directly modulates enhancers to drive dynamic lineage priming", "Metal-free guided hydroborylation of SP2", and "Resolving the circular structure and function of tumor extrachromosomal DNA".

Other seemingly good papers, such as "High-temperature Superconductivity in Single-layer Bismuth-Strontium-Calcium Copper-Oxygen", "Whole Cancer Genome Analysis of Metastatic Solid Tumors", and "Superconductors, Orbital Magnets and Related States in Magic Angle Bilayer Graphene", are all suspected of fried cold rice.

In fact, this kind of complex and diverse manuscripts should be handed over to those dedicated editors-in-chief and small editors to review, but John Hunter is always idle, and will participate in the review whenever he has time, filling his daily time.

Half an hour later, after reviewing a manuscript called "Could the Ninth Planet of the Solar System Be a Black Hole?" and taking off his glasses, Hunter rubbed his temples.

The quality of today's manuscript is average, since Pluto was downgraded to a dwarf planet, the research and estimation of the ninth planet of the solar system has not stopped.

Unfortunately, although astronomers and physicists have expanded their thinking beyond the Milky Way and into deep space, the study and calculation of Planet Nine have been hindered.

This article on Planet Nine lacks practical basis and experimental data, and it cannot even be published in the "Astronomy" sub-journal of Nature magazine, let alone the main journal.

After a short break, Hunter was about to take a look at the manuscripts that had been reviewed by other editors-in-chief when there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps outside the office, followed by a knock on the door.

Knock knock!

"Please come in. Hunter said.

A middle-aged man in black overalls and a black hat quickly pushed the door open with a manuscript and walked briskly to Hunter's desk.

When Hunter saw him, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Connor, why are you here, I heard that you haven't even been able to celebrate Christmas for a manuscript recently, and someone has reported you to me for this, do you know?"

Connor is the editor-in-chief of Nature Medicine, a sub-journal of Nature Medicine, and an old friend of Hunter's, a former professor at Harvard Medical School, who has won many awards and has a high reputation in the academic community.

Because of a chance, he was dug by Hunter to the natural editorial department to become the editor-in-chief.

Connor was a serious and serious man, but in the face of Hunter's jokes, he did not smile, and said seriously: "I have come to you now for this matter." ”

"Tell me. Hunter laughed.

Connor handed the manuscript to Hunter, "I have found an experimental result that may be worthy of the Nobel Prize, and I am not deliberately closing the door these days, but reviewing the manuscript in retreat to check the authenticity of the experimental results in the manuscript." ”

"Can you judge the experimental results of the Nobel Prize?" Knowing Connor's personality, he was not a good liar, so Hunter's expression became serious.

After taking the manuscript, Hunt quickly flipped through it.

Because of the length, Hunter only looked at the abstract of the paper.

"It's actually related to hair growth...... "After reading it, he touched his somewhat bald head, and then looked at Connor.

I saw that Connor slowly took off the black hat on the top of his head, revealing a dense pile of shallow hair of about 1mm.

Hunter took a breath of cool air, and his heart was a little shocked, "I remember that you were balder than me before, how can you ...... now?"

A rare smile appeared on the corner of Connor's mouth, and he said, "That's right, I used to have a lot of hair loss, and almost all the hair on the top of my head fell out.

But two weeks ago, I dug it out of my mailbox and got some HBRM molecules according to the method I had done on it, and then smeared it on my head.

Two weeks later, it's like this. ”

Hair loss, for many researchers, has always been a heavy pain in the heart.

To be able to have thick black hair again, no one is unhappy, no one is unhappy, no one is born with a shaved head, and so is Connor.

Hunter sighed: "You are so bold that you dare to experiment with yourself without passing the quality inspection......"

Connor touched his head, his prickly and real hair, and he was very satisfied:

"Anyway, it turns out that this HBRM molecule does work wonders for hair growth, I went to the hospital for a check-up, and the doctor said that I had cicatricial alopecia, the hair follicles have completely necrosis, and the chance of regenerating hair is infinitely close to zero.

But now, a miracle has happened, man, don't I look much younger?"

Hunter smiled: "At least ten years younger than before, but you are not afraid that he will sue you for using the results of the contributor's experiments privately?"

Connor said: "Don't worry, I have already contacted him before conducting experimental verification, no problem, I am not commercial." ”

Hunter's eyes flickered, and he coughed lightly, "Do you still have anything you made?" and to be honest man, I want to have a thick black hair...... too."

"It's hard to make in the lab, but I'll keep one for you and I'll get it back to you. ”

"Haha, that's great, thank you. ”
