Chapter 148: Telomeres

The white light of the fluorescent lamp shines on a black hand, between the palms, a transparent test tube is loaded with a little red liquid with the black palm shaking, on the electron microscope, the other black hand holds the electron microscope, keeps rotating the microscope, adjusting the angle of the microscope. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

"Mr. Lanza." Guderian, the owner of the black palm and a student of Lanza, closed one eye and carefully discerned the mystery revealed by the electron microscope, "It's 50 generations. ”

"Keep watching." Lanza glanced up at Guderian and swept his gaze slightly over Bruce in front of him. Banner and Xiao Li laughed, "Ordinary people's cells divide up to 50 times, and after exceeding the limit, they will quickly age and die. ”

"I injected hormones to stimulate the rapid division of the cells of the people of the Divine Domain, and now it has reached the 50th generation, and if it continues to divide, I don't know if it will age and die quickly."

Under normal circumstances, human cells divide 50 times, and the division cycle is about 2.4 years.

That is to say, every 2.4 years, the cells in the body will divide once, a total of 50 times, converted into age, the life span of a person is 120 years old, but this is only an ideal state, generally speaking, the number of cell divisions in the human body will be affected by various factors in reality, such as freezing.

In the frozen state, the rate of human cell division will be delayed, or even infinitely close to stopping, so that the life span of the person will be greatly increased, and the dormant chamber in the space battleship is based on this idea.

"If so, then the cells of the Divine Domain people are no different from ordinary people; If not, then ....... Lanza lowered his head and took a sip of coffee, and his heart gradually became excited,

Then the lifespan of the people of the Divine Domain is completely different from that of humans.

Xiao Li added in his heart, his eyes fell on the electron microscope, motionless.

For a while, the entire laboratory was silent, and the needle drop could be heard.

"Breakthrough."

Syllable!

A coffee cup slammed on the table, and Lanza's body seemed to be on fire, rushing to the front of the electron microscope, squeezing his students away, his eyes engrossed, "How many times have you broken through?" ”

"51 times." Guderian's swarthy face showed a look of excitement, "It broke through 51 times. ”

51 times!

The cells of the Divine Domain people broke the limit of human cells, breaking through 51 times.

Bruce. Bannerhoe got up, took two steps forward and turned back, he bit his lip and drank the coffee in front of him, "What about cell strength?" ”

"It's about two to three times as many as the average person." Guderian said quickly, "It can't carry all kinds of particle rays, but its cells divide faster than ordinary people, and if you are injured, you will recover faster." ”

"In the experiment, the cells will divide rapidly after being damaged by particle rays, the old cells will age and die rapidly, and the new cells will replace the old cells ......."

"It's not as strong as your cells, though."

Guderian gave Bruce a strange look. Banner, a complicated look flashed in his eyes, Bruce. It's no secret that Banner is the provider of the Hulk cells, and they have a strange feeling at the thought of studying the subject itself with the subject.

Suppressing the strangeness in his heart, Guderian continued: "No matter what kind of rays we use, they can't destroy your cells, and its strength is so amazing that we can't test its limit. ”

"As for the split."

Guderian's face is even more bizarre, they inject hormones into the Hulk's cells to stimulate the Hulk's cell division, but the end result is that the hormone is absorbed by the Hulk's cells and converted into high-energy compounds.

That kind of cell that seems to absorb everything.

"I don't know if if you throw the Hulk into the universe, will it absorb all kinds of rays in the universe?" This impulse crossed his mind, and Guderian hurriedly suppressed the impulse, "Bruce. Mr. Banner, I wonder if you've tested yourself to see if you need to breathe? ”

He was genuinely curious.

Chlorophyll from Hulk's cells shows Bruce. Banner doesn't seem to need oxygen because it can produce oxygen on its own, but humans themselves can't live without oxygen, so this kind of question has been bothering him, and now he finally has a chance to ask it.

"For example, shut up and not breathe for a few minutes."

"I haven't tried." Bruce. Banner shook his head and said honestly, "But I can try it now." ”

"I'm sorry for you."

"No trouble." Bruce. Banner pinched his nose, pouted his mouth, and found a comfortable position to lean back on the couch and look up at the sky.

Guderian looked at him with big eyes, and a minute passed, and two minutes passed...... Five minutes passed, ten minutes passed, fifteen minutes passed...... Half an hour passed, and Bruce. Banner still pinched his nose.

Guderian felt his eyes sour, he rubbed his eyes, feeling a slight wetness on them, "No need to try." "The results are in.

The highest human breath-holding record is 15 minutes. Banner's 30 minutes have pushed the limit, and it's enough to prove that it doesn't need to breathe.

"If I were you, I would definitely compete, and trust me, you would definitely win the championship."

"Shouldn't it be more likely that I was kicked out for cheating?" Bruce. Banner joked.

Guderian was about to speak, when he heard his teacher Huo stand up and dance wildly, "Two hundred breakthroughs, two hundred breakthroughs." ”

Suddenly, Lanza put away his smile, and he shouted at Guderian, "Guderian, go get more hormones." ”

A flush flashed across his face, "I'm going to see where its limits are." ”

200 cell divisions means 480 years of lifespan, and what is even more rare is that the cells of this creature have too many similarities with human cells.

What's more, it's not the limit of the cell.

The division continues, and there is not even a shadow of aging and death.

"More hormones?" Guderian hesitated, there were enough hormones now, and he was afraid that the cells of the people in the Divine Domain would not be able to bear it and collapse if he injected more hormones.

"Go."

Lanza scolded Guderian away before confronting Xiao Li and Bruce. Banner smiled excitedly, "I bet it's far from the limit of the human cells of the God's Domain. ”

"If you don't use an excessive amount of hormones to stimulate it, I'm afraid you won't be able to test its limits."

It sounds very fearless, and has the spirit of conjecture, but Xiao Li has already seen through him, and in the words of the earth, 'You are red in front of me. Bare. Naked', he glanced at Lanza lightly, and slowly spoke, "The cells of the Divine Domain people are very precious, and I don't have extra cells in my hands to spare. ”

All of a sudden, the smile on Lanza's face froze on it like a photograph taken by a camera, and by the time Guderian brought more hormones, he didn't need it anymore.

"Hormones need to be injected with care so as not to destroy valuable cells."

He carefully injected hormones into the cells, adding the amount bit by bit, and his hands stopped a few times from time to time, his eyes observed the changes in the cells all the time, and stopped immediately if there was a slight mistake, even to the point that the wind was loud and the grass and trees were all soldiers.

There is only one point of the cell, and if it is damaged, it will be less.

How dare he let go of the experiment.

"What's wrong with my teacher?" Guderian touched his bald head, looked at the teacher with different attitudes before and after, and felt inexplicable, it was not like this just now.

"Because the cells of the people of the Divine Domain are precious and rare, he is careful." Xiao Li smiled and raised his chin, "Actually, there are currently two Divine Domain people on the earth, one of them is locked up in the space carrier and the other lives in the space carrier, and there is no shortage of God Domain people's cells at all. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a 'whoosh', and Lanza injected all the hormones into the cells at once, and soon dyed the vessel dark green.

Seeing his teacher doing this, Guderian still didn't understand his teacher's true thoughts, so he could only shake his head helplessly.

With a large amount of hormones injected into the cells, the cells of the Divine Domain began to divide wildly, and in the blink of an eye, they divided hundreds of times, but the telomeres were not damaged in the slightest.

Telomeres are a small DNA-protein complex found at the end of thread-like chromosomes in eukaryotic cells, which is used to maintain the integrity of chromosomes and control the cell division cycle.

There is a biological hypothesis that telomeres control the lifespan of a person, and if humans can replenish telomeres, then they will gain immortality.

However, there are many refutators of this hypothesis.

Many biologists give examples to show that telomeres control human lifespan is only in an ideal state, in fact, many people do not run out of telomeres after death, so telomeres are not as important as the hypothesis touts, but in any case, the non-loss of telomeres indicates the longevity of cell owners from the side.

"Infinite division of cells, non-loss of telomeres...... Can the people of the Divine Realm really live forever? Lanza carefully observed the cells, and the more he looked, the more obsessed he became, all the cells of the Hulk were left behind by him, and the discovery of the immortal species was the most landmark discovery in biology.

"More testing is needed, though."

Raising his head, Lanza smiled at Xiao Li, "Xiao, who did you just say that the two Divine Domain people in the space carrier are?" Nick. Why didn't Fury let them give us more cells? ”

It's okay if I don't know, but if I know, I'll definitely have to find a way to get it.

"Director Nick......."

Rumble!

As soon as Xiao Li was about to speak, the space carrier shook violently, the shrill sirens beeped, and the sound of clattering footsteps was even more chaotic.
