Chapter 326 New life! Super stem cell technology!

Gao Yuan returned to his office, locked the door and entered the system space.

The crisp sound I heard when I returned was indeed the system prompt sound when the task was completed. At this moment, the huge text on the system panel shows the following content.

"The mission has been completed and the evaluation level is excellent."

"The mission reward has been accumulated. Will you accept new tasks?"

Alas~

"There is no reward, and I'm dispatching tasks one after another. What's the system really treating me like a mule?" Gao Yuan curled his lips and muttered to himself.

The plateau has a feeling that since the start of the controllable fusion task, the system seems to have been accelerating, and the suspension of reward distribution is more like holding on to the ultimate move. After accumulating to a certain level, it will give the plateau a big surprise.

"I hope it will be as I expected."

Gao Yuan nodded slightly and chose to accept the task.

"A new mission, genetic engineering for life, is it accepted now?"

Gao Yuan looked at the text on the mission panel, his expression fell into dullness, and then turned into ecstasy.

What is life genetic engineering?

Simply put, it is to perform cell-level precise control of the human body, repair damage caused by diseases, and even extend the life span of human beings until immortality.

Faced with the endless universe, the biggest enemy of human beings is life span. No one can travel around the entire universe in a limited life span. As for temporary life enclosure technologies such as human body freezing, it is also a treatment for symptoms but not the root cause. It is easy to cause serious nerve damage in the process, with high risks and little benefits.

Assuming that Mr. Qian Xuesen could live to this day and continue his research for two hundred or five hundred years, what a huge contribution it would be to mankind?

When the plateau is free, I often think like this.

For a scumbag, even if a second of life is a waste, they are not worthy of being born in this world.

For those who have made significant contributions to all mankind, even if they live for ten thousand years, no one will feel that it is too long and I just hope that they will never lose them.

Of course, our loved ones...

In an instant, the plateau thought of many things. It is of course a good thing to rely on genetic engineering to eliminate diseases and enable humans to reach a perfect state of nearly immortality, but at the same time, it will also bring many social problems.

In any case, let’s take one step at a time, and use consciousness to choose to accept the task. In an instant, the knowledge and data about genetic engineering of life enter the plateau brain and become his indivisible permanent memory.

"Super stem cell cultivation and transplantation technology!?"

"So it's this technical route!"

The plateau saw the newly added knowledge in his mind, and felt the indescribable excitement, which made his blood crazier and he couldn't help but tremble.

For a long time, the melon-eating people have always had a misunderstanding, thinking that genetics and life science researchers do not do anything serious. After so long, why has human life span still not broken through and it is difficult to get rid of the entanglement of birth, old age, sickness and death.

To put it this way, some underestimate the cutting-edge research on life sciences. From ancient times to the present, humans have always invested a lot in studying eternal life. Ancient alchemists refining elixirs and modern scholars recombining gene maps are essentially the same thing, just wanting to seek eternal life.

As for the research results, basically the average life expectancy of modern people is close to the physiological limit of human beings.

And this limit is one hundred and forty years old.

In other words, in the absence of essential breakthroughs in modern life sciences, even if you drink more supplements from childhood, do not smoke or drink, maintain your figure perfectly, exhaust all your efforts, and hire the most prestigious doctor in the world, you will never be able to exceed the age of 140 in the end.

Logically speaking, human cells are renewing every day, old cells die, and new cells replace them.

When you look at your right hand, you need to understand that although your right hand is in the same shape as your right hand two years ago, it is essentially completely different, and every cell has been replaced again.

There is a will in the dark. Inside the cell, a small thing called mitochondria determines the number of cell divisions. According to the different genetic genes, the mitochondria division limit is usually around fifty times. Whoever completes fifty times of cell division first and whoever meets the great man first is that simple and cruel.

Sometimes when we say that someone is energetic and has a fast metabolism, it may not be a compliment, because science tells us that only a slow metabolism like a turtle can last for a long time, and the metabolism is fast, and often go fast.

So the question is, can we change the mitochondria and let it divide forever?

Not to mention, there are cells in the world that are constantly dividing and will never age. These infinitely reproductive cells are called cancer cells...

In short, under the existing scientific conditions, immortality cannot exist. Scientists are very sure of the conclusions of life sciences. No one can cross the 140-year-old mark, no matter how much money you have.

So at the beginning of the 21st century, wealthy people around the world invested in mitochondrial research. Since lifespan cannot be broken, people hope that mitochondria can be more vibrant, at least in a limited lifespan, they can live healthier.

In addition, researchers led by Sinclair, Harvard Life Sciences Laboratory, hope to reduce self-oxidation, activate the ampk gene channel, and achieve longevity and health effects.

Pauling, the superstar in the chemistry world, frantically proposed the antioxidant theory of vitamin C. He practiced it himself and took up up to 15 grams of vitamin C every day. You should know that the vitamin C supplement we bought from the pharmacy is only 100 mg per tablet. Pauling, who has to take at least 150 tablets of vitamin C every day!

Of course, Comrade Pauling was 93 years old and his life span was far stronger than most people. And according to speculation, if he took vitamin C before each meal to avoid the negative effect of vitamin C to accelerate iron absorption, he might have lived for a few more years.

In any case, in the dark era before the emergence of new technologies, even the super genius Pauling, who won the Nobel Prize twice, could only rely on his desperate madness to try to increase his lifespan. And no one can tell yet whether Pauling took a lot of vitamin C.

What a desperate tragic feeling this is. The tycoons of the chemistry world are still rushing around like headless flies, let alone ordinary people without a knowledge base.

But from this moment on, things finally changed. Plateau got the key to open a new chapter in life sciences, and the name of this key is called super stem cell technology.

In fact, stem cells are not a new term. Life science researchers have discovered the unparalleled powerful ability of stem cells a long time ago. Many wealthy people quietly inject stem cells into their bodies and replace young people's blood, trying to obtain immortality on this path.

Simply put, stem cells are omnipotent cells. When you suffer from long-term alcoholism, stem cells will enter your liver and turn them into liver cells.

Similarly, stem cells can also be transformed into any component of your body. As long as you have enough stem cell reserves, you can constantly repair and replace your body and never die.

Unfortunately, you don't.

Super stem cell technology attempts to create eternal life from two aspects, first of all, in vitro cultivation.

Using advanced biotechnology, replicated stem cells are cultured in vitro, and then stem cells are injected into humans to build a stem cell reserve pool.

With a stem cell reserve pool, it is amazing. Any physical damage can be extracted from the reserve pool to repair.

However, stem cell reserve pools only solve the problem of raw materials. How to use these raw materials to accurately repair damaged parts of the body and eliminate cancerous parts requires another black technology, genetic engineering technology.

Life is like a building, where raw materials and construction workers work together to build the building and maintain it for a long time.

Those rich people may be able to buy enough stem cells and inject them into their bodies, but they still cannot live forever in the end because they do not have the corresponding genetic engineering technology.

The plateau spent some time and finally figured out what he had. Although he was not sure whether enough stem cells could create immortality, he thought that he was not far from immortality.
