Chapter 631: This Thing

??

Xiao Ming's current life is quite colorful, a week, except for two days in the school substitute for students, two days in the headquarters to deal with official business, the rest of the time is in close contact with nature.

Recently, Xiao Ming has become obsessed with fishing. In the mountain stream behind the headquarters, various kinds of fish in the stream water are rare and delicious.

This kind of life also made Zheng Xuanyu envious, Zheng Xuanyu, who was tired and tired in the laboratory every day, watched Xiao Ming carry a bucket of live fish down the mountain, and no one had this feeling anymore.

Xiao Ming is also obsessed with making his own food, in the suite behind the headquarters office, this is where Xiao Ming plays.

It's just that Xiao Ming's skills are too poor, and at present, the only person who is lucky enough to taste Xiao Ming's food works is Qian Yi, who happened to come to Xiao Ming to sign at the meal.

Qian Yi also has only a four-word evaluation of Xiao Ming's cooking skills - endless aftertaste.

If Qian Yi was asked to add a little annotation to these four words, then Comrade Qian Yi would have a painful expression on his face, first retching, and then said earnestly: "If I am given another chance, at that time of that day, I will definitely put the documents in the office and go to the boss to sign them the next morning." ”

Xiao Ming, who is so idle, is not thinking about his retirement life, he has not yet reached the age of retirement, but is waiting.

Waiting for the large-scale application of quantum communication, and more importantly, waiting for news from South Anfei.

Super Xiaochu reported the situation in South Anfei in a timely manner.

"He Yuchu is an embryo now, and there will be fetal movements in a while, do you want to touch it?"

"It's still early. ”

Xiao Ming looked at Xiao Chu and couldn't get her cold humor.

However, since He Yuchu has formed an embryo, it means that the first phase of Gao Siqi's experiment was successful.

In the first stage, the most difficult part is the connection of gene fragments and the combination of chromosomes.

It was absolutely necessary for Xiao Ming to look at the morphology of the embryo.

Not by plane, of course, to South Anfei, but by using virtual reality.

The laboratory in South Anfei will appear in the laboratory of the virtual community in its complete form, and Xiao Ming can observe the condition of the embryo up close.

"Xiao Chu, turn on the Qinghe device and enter the virtual laboratory. ”

Xiao Ming was lying on the boss's chair, and under the control of Xiao Chu, the Qinghe equipment that Xiao Ming carried with him entered the full virtual mode, and Xiao Ming logged in to enter the virtual headquarters of Pangu Technology in Luoxia City, the life science laboratory.

Gao Siqi and others were already standing in the virtual laboratory waiting, and in front of Xiao Ming, there was a two-meter-high, half-meter-diameter cylindrical glass container.

In the container is a yellowish liquid, in which a white mesh of tissue can be seen.

The tissue is a human-like zigong wall, and in the center of the reticular tissue, there is the embryonic tissue that has been implanted.

Therefore, in this current condition, there is no way to see the embryonic tissue with the naked eye, only with the help of instruments.

Gao Siqi reported the detailed data of the first phase of the experiment to Xiao Ming, and Xiao Ming looked at it, all of which were within the allowable value of the experiment, indicating that the embryo is currently stable.

Gao Siqi reported: "In the first phase of the experiment, we also had a great breakthrough in technology, and we despised the connection of gene fragments and the combination of chromosomes. ”

Xiao Ming nodded, "Hard work!"

Gao Siqi's eyes were full of guilt, after all, Su Yi had such a big thing on her side, she couldn't escape the blame, what kind of hard work was there to talk about at this time.

Gao Siqi smiled and shook her head, and handed Xiao Ming an electronic version of the application report material.

"These are some of the results achieved in the first phase of the trial, which can be applied to the clinic, and our gene store can be opened. ”

Xiao Ming flipped through the content of the results, which had detailed descriptions and technical guidelines for gene screening, splicing, expression, etc., which can be directly used in clinical practice.

In the results report, some genotypes of diseases are discussed, and detailed data methods are also described.

For example, trisomy 21, also known as congenital stupidity or Down syndrome, is related to an abnormality of chromosome 21, which is mainly due to advanced maternal age, aging eggs, etc.

If the next generation is the disease, then most of them will have spontaneous miscarriages, which is the magic of nature, which will reduce the production of unsound individuals. The rest of the vitality is tenacious, and after birth, there will be mental retardation, special appearance, growth and development disorders, and multiple malformations.

In this case, there was a precondition that the mother was older or had a fertility disorder.

Under this precondition, many pregnant women basically only have the opportunity to give birth once, and if the child is aborted, they will lose the opportunity to be a mother.

The disease is also clinically untreatable, and the best way to treat it is to not have children.

But in the first phase of the experiment in the laboratory in South Anfei, Gao Siqi's experimental team found a solution.

If it is an advanced maternal age, when you have just had a baby, you should be alert and carry out corresponding prenatal checkups. If it is found that the next generation does have the disease and is willing to treat it, Pangu Technology's gene therapy can be used.

Through the stripping, cutting and recombination of chromosomal genes of whole embryonic abnormalities, the health of the child can be guaranteed.

The whole treatment process is sure to be quite complicated and the current cost is also very expensive. But it would be a revolutionary advance for the history of human medicine.

In addition, there are genetic diseases such as congenital heart disease and hereditary brittle bone disease, which can be treated clinically.

Gao Siqi commented on the research results of the first phase of the experiment: "The symbolic meaning is greater than the practical significance, and some of the results may never be used in clinical practice, but when they are really used, they will have a leapfrog impact on the history of human medicine." ”

Gao Siqi's first-stage results report has a total of more than 1,000 pages, and it can be seen that the experimental team has really put a lot of effort into it.

Xiao Ming put away the results report and said: "We will never be able to make He Yuchu's experiments public, but it does not mean that the results of our experiments at each stage cannot be disclosed. ”

In the virtual world, Xiao Ming raised the results report in his hand and said: "The life science laboratory has a great achievement. ”

In the glass container, under the action of the culture medium, the embryo is developing rapidly, and at the critical stage of brain formation, the laboratory will carry out certain operations on the neural development of the brain, and embed the chip specially created for Xiaochu by the future technology company.

Xiao Ming looked at the time and said, "I won't waste everyone's time here anymore, I hope that soon, I can get the good news of your success." ”

After cheering up the soldiers, Xiao Ming launched a virtual world.
