Chapter 463: The ultimate goal is to become the same as Xiaoqiang!
Regeneration and self-repair are one of the self-defense mechanisms acquired by the biological world in the long-term evolutionary process. The purpose of the pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info is to protect oneself and prolong one's existence.
Surviving, healthy cells are constantly dividing and multiplying to replace dead cells and repair damaged tissues, a physiological function of the body called regeneration and self-repair.
Factors influencing regenerative restoration:
1. Depending on the regeneration ability of the cell, the stronger the regeneration and repair ability, the easier it is to repair.
2. It depends on the extent and extent of the injury. 3. Age factors and genetic factors!
4. Nutritional status: Proteins, vitamins and minerals are the raw materials for building cells. The insufficient supply of these raw materials will affect the ability of cells to regenerate and repair.
5. Drug effects. 6. Blood supply and energy supply.
7. Innervation: Tissues that lose innervation will gradually lose their ability to regenerate. Except, of course, some creatures that are particularly strong in regeneration!
There are many animals in the animal kingdom that have the ability to regenerate, and some even cut them into several pieces, but they can still survive and regenerate back to their original shape.
If you want to be like Sun Wukong, who has eaten the elixir, it is not impossible to be immortal, at least there is a creature on the earth that can barely do it. This creature is usually called Xiaoqiang, the scientific name is cockroach, it is an incomplete metamorphosis, and the survivability is extremely strong, and some experts have predicted that if there is a nuclear war in Aqua Blue Star, it will definitely be a cockroach that can survive to the end.
Because Comrade Xiaoqiang can eat anything, and it is highly resistant to radiation, and the requirements for the living environment are very low. It is said that some experts once did an experiment, after tearing off the head of the cockroach, the cockroach can live for more than a week, and finally it can't hold on because it starves to death!
In fact, humans also have the ability to regenerate. For example, if the skin is damaged to a certain extent, it can be repaired automatically; After donating blood, you can make up for it. However, the regenerative function of the human body is very limited, and once the hands and feet are defected or the organs are damaged, the regenerative ability of the human body is powerless.
So, can we improve the regenerative capacity of humans?
The answer is yes!
Someone may want to refute, how is this possible, even if a human being only breaks a small finger, it is impossible to regenerate, and you still want to defy the sky?
That's right, for the time being, even if only the tip of a human finger is broken, it will cause a crippled finger.
The reason for this is that the Creator gave warm blood to humans, and the blood hindered the regeneration of limbs. According to doctors and scientists, in order for a new finger to grow in place of a residual finger, there must be an open wound, which of course bleeds profusely and causes wound infection.
Since humans have a body that heals wounds quickly, there is nowhere for the new finger to regenerate. However, some experts believe that human beings have not lost their regenerative function.
This is a strong proof that after removing 2/3 of the liver in the body, why can it be regenerated and restored?
Why does the heart muscle grow in size while maintaining its function? What are the substances that sustain this process? Can you influence this process?
By 2020, human scientists have achieved qualitative results in the study of regeneration.
In this regard, Zhu Lilong has some understanding as a modern person.
In addition, at this time, he has the ability of the eye of the sky, so he will naturally experiment with this, and he will be handy, and he will get twice the result with half the effort.
At this moment, he is still sitting in the lake.
Zhu Zilong thought to himself: There is a primitive cell in the human body, called totipotent stem cells, which are produced by the combination of sperm and egg, and this stem cell can supplement the loss of any cell in the human body.
However, as people grow older, the number of totipotent stem cells decreases, and a large number of totipotent stem cells are generated, which can also supplement the loss of various cells in the human body except for totipotent stem cells.
Then the pluripotent stem cells generate pluripotent stem cells, which can replace the loss of the same type of cells; This is followed by the production of specific stem cells, adult stem cells, etc., to supplement the loss of a single cell.
So if a large number of totipotent stem cells can be produced in the human body, can it also be regenerated from severed limbs like octopus monsters and tentacle monsters?
To exaggerate, when the replenishment rate of totipotent cells and the loss of various cells in the body reach a balance, wouldn't people be immortal?
Even if necessary, the rate at which totipotent cells are replenished is greater than the rate at which various cells in the body are lost...... Isn't that against the sky?
For example, if you cut off your hand, you will quickly grow a hand, if you cut off your foot, you will quickly grow a foot, and if you cut off your head, you will quickly grow a head...... Well, this may be difficult, the regenerated new brain may not have the memory of the previous one, and it will become eaten in vain.
Well, if you can master this kind of ability. In this way, the little brother is not afraid of accidents, and the eunuch can also grow the little brother again.
While these associations may seem a bit too yy, they seem to work in theory. It's just that in the next second, Zhu Zilong touched his chin and was confused again!
Because, Zhu Zilong didn't know what those totipotent and universal stem cells looked like.
But it's not like there's nothing to do now, although I don't dare to mess around in my body, but I can test the cells that love to be damaged.
Therefore, Zhu Zilong began to use the eye of heaven to carefully observe how the wounds on the surface of the skin healed and how the cells in the body repaired this process.
However, in the process.
Zhu Zilong unexpectedly found some strange cells, and then after following all the way, he was pleasantly surprised to find that they were totipotent stem cells.
This is really, it is thousands of times in the crowd, and it is not wasted at all.
Soon, using these cells as samples, Zhu Zilong began to look for other such cells in Hugh.
Eventually, it was concluded that the number of such cells in each person's body is limited.
However, it is unlikely that such cells can be obtained because they grow irreversibly and are a finite resource. This is also one of the main reasons why human beings can only live about 100 years before they die!
At this moment, Zhu Zilong fell into deep thought!
When he was young, he touched his chin again and thought: As far as I know, the reason why people age is because the stem cells in the human body are gradually decreasing. However, according to what the Chinese ancestors said, 'Eat what you eat!' 'Principle, isn't it?'
Thinking of this, Zhu Zilong suddenly fought a cold war.
If someone can master the ability to steal totipotent stem cells from someone else's body, it is tantamount to stealing someone else's lifespan!
Although Zhu Zilong has not mastered this ability now, what if he really studies it one day?
So in order to live longer, should he do this?
Obviously, this is an ethical issue, and for a while, Zhu Zilong was silent, not knowing what to say in his heart.
No wonder, there used to be legends that monsters all eat people. Maybe it's just to get totipotent stem cells in the human body, right?
In Western legends, there are also devils who make deals with human beings, and what they want is the soul and life span of human beings, which are obviously the same.
However, soon the smart Zhu Zilong thought of another starting point and method.
Absorb the same kind of totipotent stem cells, and I don't have this ability for the time being. If you master it one day, it's a big deal to be able to absorb the enemy's cells, such as the Houjin soldiers?
I really can't pass the level in my heart, and I can still spend a lot of money in modern times, secretly find some unambitious scientists, and develop human cloning!
Extracting this kind of cell from a soulless clone and not opening it to the public, isn't it?
This should not let you fall into the burden of ethics and morality!
It's just now.
Zhu Zilong Jue, he can first study the hair regeneration of the skin, after all, once something happens in the body, it is a big trouble, and he is more afraid of death!
Human hair can grow almost indefinitely, but body hair does not, and it stops growing after a certain length. However, after shaving off the skin, they will slowly grow back, and at a certain length they will slow down or stop growing.
Zhu Zilong is very interested in the fur on the skin, which will automatically know the function that will stop when it grows to a certain extent!
Of course, his ultimate goal is to hope that one day, he can be like Xiaoqiang and not afraid of death!
