Chapter 172: Controllable, Incurable

Wang Xiaoxiao handed the brief experimental data to Zhou Yu and said with a smile: "Mr. Zhou, you can understand what I mean after reading the experimental data."

Zhou Yu immediately checked Wang Xiaoxiao's experimental data.

He saw that the animal experiment was on the African green long-tailed monkey, and the most critical experimental data was the HIV concentration and activity collected in the previous week.

After a simple summary analysis, it is easy to draw conclusions.

HIV is closely related to human herpesvirus-6 virus, and Wang Xiaoxiao has cracked the code of association between the two viruses.

Through the comparative experiment of pheromones and interferon, the way in which the pheromones released by human herpesvirus-6 virus bind to HIV virus, and the way through which the interferon released by human herpesvirus-6 virus interferes with the immune system.

After Wang Xiaoxiao learned about these biological codes, it synthesized inducers to drive the human immune system to actively kill the HIV virus.

It's like a foggy battlefield that turns on the radar on the immune system's side, allowing them to pinpoint HIV.

Through animal experiments, it has been proved that inducer can definitely induce the immune system to trap and kill most HIV viruses.

After Zhou Yu read Wang Xiaoxiao's experimental data, he was quite surprised and said: "Director Wang, I didn't expect you to be able to do this and find the biological code of the HIV virus.

If inducer can direct the immune system to attack HIV, why would you deny that it can cure AIDS? ”

Wang Xiaoxiao saw that Zhou Yu had already understood his experimental data, so he didn't have to bother to explain the experimental data to Zhou Yu.

He directly stated the specific reason and said: "Mr. Zhou, we have not developed a drug to locate and kill the HIV virus, we only locate the HIV virus and induce the human immune system to kill the AIDS virus.

But HIV is a very cunning virus, which has been observed by our lab for a long time.

The HIV virus parasitizes lymphotic T cells, and they do not all start a multiplication program immediately.

A very small part of the HIV virus sleeps in the lymphotic T cells in the thymus, lymph nodes, and other immune glands, and at the same time, the lymphotic T cells are ineffective.

The dormant HIV virus cannot receive the biological signals sent by the human herpesvirus-6 virus, and our inducer uses the human herpesvirus-6 virus biological signaling pathway, so it cannot be delivered to the lymphotic T cells parasitic this HIV. ”

Zhou Yu listened carefully to Wang Xiaoxiao's words, and he found that he was blindly optimistic, how could HIV, a disease that has plagued mankind for decades, be solved so easily.

"Director Wang, what is the effect of this inducer you are studying, since you can stop the experiment, you should have achieved the goal set by the experiment." Zhou Yu asked expectantly.

At the beginning of the establishment of the HIV project, the biggest goal was to completely cure AIDS, but no one regarded this goal as a real goal, only as an ideal.

The lab's initial goal was to find an HIV treatment with few side effects, low viral drug resistance, and long-term use.

Wang Xiaoxiao said with a smile: "We spent 3.8 billion yuan, and we have been researching for so long, if we don't produce results, we will be sorry for ourselves."

He reported to Zhou Yu in detail how inducer hormone controls AIDS.

Inducer hormone instructs the body's immune system to kill HIV in human blood and most body fluids, and only a small amount of HIV remains in the lymphatic fluid, which is found in the thymus and lymph nodes, rather than in the dense lymphatic vessels around the body.

Inducer is a peptide that can be present in human body fluids for up to a year.

As long as AIDS patients do not die, after the use of inducerin, the body's remaining immune system can respond quickly and gradually eliminate most of the HIV virus in the human body, allowing people to gradually return to normal.

When people living with HIV are given inducers, HIV is not present in their blood or other bodily fluids, so they do not transmit HIV through blood, sex, and mother-to-child, which are common routes of transmission.

This is tantamount to cutting off the transmission route of AIDS, which has changed from a high-risk infectious disease to a disease of the patient himself.

It is greatly less socially harmful, and if it is properly controlled, just as rabies has been eradicated in some countries, AIDS can also be eradicated in some areas.

To sum up Wang Xiaoxiao's meaning, AIDS can be controlled, but it cannot be cured.

Zhou Yu laughed twice, stood up and patted Wang Xiaoxiao's shoulder, and said happily: "Director Wang, you have done a great job, as long as you continue to promote inducers, we will eliminate HIV sooner or later."

This technology has been developed to such an extent that it can officially end, what about the yield of inducerin? Is it expensive? ”

"Mr. Zhou, the production cost per kilogram of inducer is about 100 million yuan, and the production speed is very slow, and our laboratory can only produce about one gram per day.

If a pharmaceutical factory is built for industrial production, its output should be increased substantially.

This project is only half the battle, and we don't yet know what the ripple effect of inducing hormone into the human body will be.

If the side effects are very severe, then the agent is not as effective as we think.

We also don't know whether inducer can achieve the effect shown in African green long-tailed monkeys in humans.

To know this data, we have to conduct human experiments.

If you want to carry out human experiments, you must apply for it like the National Health Commission and other relevant departments, and our animal experiment process must be exposed, and the composition of inducer polymorphisms also needs to be disclosed.

Mr. Zhou, if we want to hold this technology for a long time, we can select certain countries for human experiments, such as India, where they have very big loopholes in the review of pharmaceutical companies.

International mainstream pharmaceutical companies have set up laboratories in India to facilitate confidentiality and convenient human experiments. ”

Wang Xiaoxiao finished answering Zhou Yu's question, and at the same time put forward the question in his own heart.

Zhou Yu laughed softly: "We have no shortage of money in Xinghuo Technology, of course, no one will be too little with the money we can earn."

But I can't make any money, and besides, the original intention of setting up an AIDS project was to completely cure AIDS, not to make money.

Otherwise, why would I choose AIDS, a difficult bone, broad-spectrum antibiotics and other drugs, which are not better developed than AIDS drugs, and the application market is also huge.

You just hand over the matter to Huang Ke, and after the inducer-related patents are down, let him apply for human experiments according to the normal process. ”

When Wang Xiaoxiao heard Zhou Yu's words, he was in awe, he had been displaced in the past few years and had seen many black-hearted capitalists, but capitalists like Zhou Yu were really rare.

Some well-known international pharmaceutical companies obviously have drugs with better efficacy, but they choose drugs with worse treatment effects and need to be taken for a long time.

It is to find a way to make high profits, for example, the proportion of medicine in the United States is as high as 18% of GDP.

"Mr. Zhou, I immediately sorted out the experimental data, sent the relevant data to Huang Ke, and after the AIDS project is over and the technology is officially handed over to the relevant company, I will start a new project." Wang Xiaoxiao said neatly.

Xinghuo Technology is a company that is worth fighting for all his life.
