Chapter 549: Direction (up)

Guo Tailai did not expect Professor Zheng to say this in one mouth. However, there are actually some actionable reasons for conducting research in the field of stem cells.
Stem cells are a class of pluripotent cells with self-replication ability.
Under certain conditions, it can differentiate into multiple functional cells.
To put it simply, human disease is actually caused by abnormal lesions or death in some parts of the body. By transplanting stem cells, healthy cells can be regenerated and this part of the gap can be filled.
Stem cells and their differentiation products are also considered to be effective in repairing important tissue and organ damage in humans, and provide a new way to cure important diseases such as cardiovascular diseases, metabolic diseases, nervous system diseases, blood system diseases, and autoimmune diseases.
Among the stem cell therapies, the damage that uses stem cells to repair the heart is undoubtedly the most attractive part.
Existing treatments are still difficult to reverse the heart failure process after myocardial infarction, regenerating myocardial cells, has become the direction of many scientists research and efforts.
If someone can figure out a way to produce stem cells without sacrificing or cloning human embryos, or if it is possible to find effective treatment for diseases that afflict millions of patients, the researcher may become a candidate for Nobel Prize winners.
This is only an academic advantage. In addition, the combination of capital and various commercial forces in the market will bring unimaginable wealth to researchers.
Can not cure diseases and save man-made blessings, and there are all kinds of fame and fortune, what good things?
It is not surprising that Professor Zheng can be moved by their hearts.
But Guo Tailai is very clear that the heart stem cells are a tiankeng.
There are no stem cells in the adult heart. This is the conclusion that Guo Tailai has given Chu Fei to treat congenital viscera. If Zheng is really allowed to study in this direction, I am afraid it will not be worth the candle.
"Mr. Zheng, in fact, I am not optimistic about this direction."
Guo Tailai considered it a bit and then said very seriously.
"How to say?"
Professor Zheng is serious.
Several other professors, including Professor Yang, also listened carefully and wanted to know the reason.
"Well, how do you explain it?"
Guo Tailai once again pondered after saying: "You also know that most of my care is through the unique methods of acupuncture to stimulate the recovery or division of human cells to achieve my goal of care."
The crowd still nodded.
Guo Tailai’s reputation as a beauty salon is not particularly loud among the general public, but the professors present at the scene all know a little bit of love. In fact, they are very hopeful that Guo Tailai’s acupuncture techniques can be used as research directions, but everyone I know that this is obviously impossible. Guo Tailai will never want to regard himself as a research object.
So everyone is just curious, but no one has mentioned a word. Now Guo Tailai has offered it, they are simply surprised.
"I have encountered a patient with a congenital heart disease."
Guo Tailai continued: "I have tried to cure her.
However, I have found that acupuncture techniques that stimulate cell regeneration elsewhere can be completely useless in the heart.

Some things don't mean that Guo Tailai doesn't say anything, others won't guess, and a little bit of proper disclosure is more acceptable and more convincing.
Guo Tailai is now thinking like this.
"So, I personally judge that there are no stem cells in the adult heart."
Guo Tailai directly gave a conclusion: "It is almost impossible to treat heart disease directly by heart stem cells.
Of course, if you want to prove that his theory is not true, it is also a direction.

Everyone was indulged, and Professor Zheng asked again after a while: "So, do you think it is better to conduct research in which direction?"
"I do not know."
Guo Tailai really laughed this time. A bunch of professionals had to ask Guo Tailai to find a research direction for them. This is a bit too strong. Guo Tailai is interested in machinery manufacturing, so he also In the groping: "I am just talking about my direction of continuing research."
"can!"
Professor Zheng nodded slightly, Guo Tailai's own research direction, maybe it is also instructive to everyone?
"I will study the direction of 3D printing in the next manufacturing industry, and to a certain extent, maybe I will integrate 3D printing into medical technology."
Guo Tailai is not rumored, nor afraid of others robbing his own project: "For example, some replacement joints, or some necrotic bone replacement, can directly create the most suitable parts for the patient's size by 3D printing, and then replace.
Of course, the simplest is the teeth.
When the technology is more advanced, you may be able to use biomaterials to replace some blood vessels, muscles, etc., but I am afraid that it will take a long time for the technology to mature.

"You are very close to your original professional!"
Professor Zheng smiled and commented.
But to be honest, this is a feasible idea. Everyone's size is not the same. Of course, it is the most suitable for the body.
"Yes!"
Guo Tailai nodded: "I am mainly familiar with the manufacturing industry.
On the medical side, sometimes it is full of contingency, so I don't know how to determine the direction.
For example, the last time I found a mucus of a slug is very interesting, so I mentioned it with the Ding of the Yueke Group. She used it to make medical adhesives very successfully.


Vietnamese Group's medical adhesives are the ideas you provide?

Everyone was shocked and looked at Guo Tailai as if he was looking at a cornucopia.
The medical adhesive of Yueke Group was finally approved for clinical trial this year. Two of the professors present at the time of the test participated, and the effect was very good. No serious side effects have been found yet.
It can only be used on slippery surfaces, sticking to living tissue, which is enough to eclipse the current needle-stitching machine.
Such a good product is actually related to Guo Tailai.
"When I went to the European doll, I caught a slug and found it."
Guo Tailai said with a smile: "There is no sign at all. I only thought of it when I saw it."
Just like the vaccinia of the year, isn't it accidentally discovered?
Cows can produce antibodies to smallpox. Who knows if the HIV-infected antibody will also produce antibodies to AIDS?
Who is right?

Although Guo Tailai seems to just talk about it, one of the professors specializing in immunology has a heartfelt move. Look for cows to test it in the next day to see if it can produce antibodies.
Of course, Guo Tailai knows very well that this is not because he is talking about it. In the next year's "nature" magazine, there is such a paper that cattle can quickly produce a wide range of HIV (HIV) after immunization. And antibodies.
The new findings not only contribute to the design of the HIV vaccine, but also provide ideas for the development of new HIV prevention methods.
