Chapter 64: Adverse Reactions

Professor Calais, thank you for your hard work over the years, and please rest assured that when STAR stem cells pass this clinical trial, we at Sumitomo Pharma will establish a new subsidiary with you as the core...... You'll be sure to see for yourself how STAR stem cells save countless lives!"

"Oh...... Will there be such a day?"

"Rest assured, I believe...... This day will come soon, won't it, Tokunaga!"

"Hi, with your efforts, Minister, I believe that the STAR stem cell-related drug will soon be approved by the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare, and that the entire medical community in Japan, oh no, will be transformed by our products, and the medical career of mankind will enter a new era of regenerative medicine." Those terminal diseases that were previously considered daunting by doctors will also receive new treatments because of your research, and in some ways you can be called the father of regenerative medicine!"

"Regenerative Medicine...... Haha...... This title is really ...... Some of them have won prizes!"

"There...... Professor Calais, you definitely deserve this title!"

……

Hearing that Sumitomo Pharmaceutical's sales manager and medical representative gave him the title of the father of regenerative medicine, Hideki Kalai, who was already intoxicated by fine wine and the glory of his career, couldn't help but feel a little fluttering, in fact, since the day he was still studying for a doctorate at Harvard University, he has been waiting for this day to come, because he knows that he will not be abandoned by pharmaceutical giants like Sumitomo Pharmaceutical, and in the face of a new market of trillions of dollars that is about to appear, those pharmaceutical companies will only lie at his feet like dogs and wag their tails and beg for mercy。 Because the key to opening the door to this new market is in the hands of his Calais hideki.

When the wine in the glass was drunk, Shiori Tokunaga naturally picked up the flask on the table and filled the glass for Professor Calais again. Seeing Tokunaga Shiori walk to his side, Professor Calais suddenly sighed for some reason, and then said to Tokunaga Shiori in a sad tone:

"Alas, alas...... Shallow Lijun can't see our success today!"

"Professor, you're such a sentient person, I think...... If you know what you know, you will definitely feel gratified!"

Hearing Professor Calais suddenly mention his former lover, Tokunaga couldn't help but pause for a moment, but only for a moment, a smile appeared on her face again.

"Alas...... If there is an opportunity in the future, I hope to set up a fund in the name of Asayama to support researchers in the field of regenerative medicine...... The spirit of the shallow Lijun in the sky can see our achievements today!"

"Please rest assured, Asa Lijun will definitely see it, although we broke up before he died, but ...... From what I know about Qianlijun, I know that Qianlijun has always regarded you as his most worthy teacher in his heart!"

"Good...... All right...... Don't talk about this, it's still ...... Let's talk about something happy!"

Perhaps because he heard Tokunaga say something emotional, Kalai Hideki's eyes couldn't help but moisten a little, and he quickly wiped the tears from his eyes with his hands, and then raised his wine glass again and drank bitterly.

……

After the banquet that night was over, Shiori Tokunaga and the sales manager sent Professor Calais to the car, and then Tokunaga and the sales manager separated and returned home by car. When Tokunaga got out of the taxi, she strolled into her apartment, then picked up the key to open the door and turned on the light switch on the wall.

"Alas...... Another boring day!"

Tokunaga sighed in his heart, then kicked off his high heels and walked into his apartment. Surprisingly, the furnishings in Tokunaga's apartment are simply uncanny and incredible, whether it is on the cabinet in the living room or on the desk in the study, there are basically no superfluous items, only a few large boxes piled up in the corners of the wall stand out. And Tokunaga's bedroom is even more simple to the point that there is only one cushion, and it seems that there is no breath of life at all.

Tokunaga seemed to have become accustomed to the furnishings in her room, opening the refrigerator, taking out an oolong tea and pouring herself a cup, then lifting up the disposable glass to drink it all before throwing it away. When she put the oolong tea back in the refrigerator again, the empty appearance of the refrigerator was also surprising.

Just as Tokunaga threw his coat on the sofa and was about to go to the bathroom, the mobile phone in his coat pocket suddenly rang. This made Deyong couldn't help but stop his steps, and then quickly took out his mobile phone and put it to his ear to answer:

"Dean Saito, why did you call me so late!"

"Miss Tokunaga, it's not good, something is wrong! The patient who was discharged from the hospital before...... Hikozaburo Ueno, he ...... There seems to be something wrong with his eyes, and when he was taken to the hospital today, there was some bleeding from the bottom of his eyes, although it is no longer bleeding, but I think things are likely to get very troublesome!"

"Oh, is there such a thing? Excuse me...... Do you know why?"

"This ...... The specific situation will have to wait for the results of tomorrow's inspection to come out, but ...... The patient is in a bad condition right now, as if ...... It seems that the body has a rejection reaction to the transplanted tissue, and it ...... It won't be ...... It can't be the retina problem!"

"Nani? I think...... This will never happen, and Mr. Saito, you should know that the retina used by the patient is grown in the laboratory by his own somatic cells, and there is absolutely no rejection reaction that can only occur with an allogeneic transplant......"

"But...... However, the patient's eyes now have a strong pain sensation...... If it weren't for the fact that we temporarily relieved his pain with medication, he ...... He'll even gouge out his own eyes, I don't care...... You must send someone to find out what is going on as soon as possible!"

"Dean Saito, STAR stem cells are absolutely safe, please rest assured, if you really need technical assistance, I will report the problem you are facing to the Institute of Physics and Chemistry of Imperial Capital University as soon as possible tomorrow morning!"

……

When Tokunaga finally stabilized Dean Saito with words, she immediately hung up the phone, and then she took out her work laptop from her briefcase, and then took out a USB flash drive for storing data from under the sofa.

When the computer was turned on, Tokunaga first put the files in the USB flash drive into the computer, and then she carefully browsed the files that had just been copied, until the mouse stayed on a document called "Research on the Phenomenon of STAR Stem Cell Differentiation Tissue Being Attacked by the Autoimmune System", Tokunaga smiled and said to herself:

"It seems...... Sure enough, you got it, my dear!"
