Chapter 852: Jenny's experiment

Jenny White is sleeping in the laboratory at this time. There is no pop-up window.

Because yesterday Yao went to bed too late, although it was already noon at this time, she still did not wake up

"Well……"

Jenny stretched her waist, and then she came back to her senses, and fell asleep in the laboratory.

Look at the time, it's already 50

"This is really..."

Jenny smiled and shook her head, then came to the petri dish

The materials of petri dishes are basically divided into two categories, mainly plastic and glass. Glass can be used for plant material, microbial culture and animal cell adherence culture. Plastic can also be used. Polyethylene can be used. There are disposables. It is suitable for laboratory inoculation, streaking, and isolation of bacteria. It can be used for the cultivation of plant materials.

The one placed in front of Jenny’s eyes is a petri dish with glass and plastic.

"The traits haven't changed...it seems to be ineffective for plants..."

Jenny looked at this petri dish here and compared it with the control group. Basically, the difference that can be seen can be said to be an error.

At the beginning, Jenny discovered that a certain substance in Catherine's body should help cells, but this substance will destroy itself within a very short time after leaving the body, unless cold storage is used, otherwise If you do, you will have a headache

But later, Jenny found a way

And this way is cheating

Jenny discovered that when this substance is similar to the internal environment of the body, it can continue to live for a long time, and it will also play a role similar to a catalyst.

In short, this seems to be an...enzyme

Enzymes are highly efficient catalysts. Compared with general inorganic catalysts, such enzymes may have a catalytic degree several thousand times that of each other.

Mammalian cells contain thousands of enzymes. They are either dissolved in the cytoplasm, combined with various membrane structures, or located at specific locations in other structures in the cell. These enzymes are collectively referred to as intracellular enzymes. ; In addition, there are some extracellular enzymes that are synthesized in the cell and then secreted outside the cell

The ability of enzymes to catalyze chemical reactions is called enzyme activity or enzyme activity. Enzyme activity can be regulated and controlled by a variety of factors, so that organisms can adapt to changes in external conditions and maintain life activities.

Without the participation of enzymes, metabolism can only proceed at an extremely slow rate, and life activities cannot be maintained at all. For example, food must be degraded into small molecules under the action of enzymes before it can pass through the intestinal wall and be absorbed by tissues and used in the stomach. Pepsin, there are trypsin, chymotrypsin, lipase, and amylase secreted by the pancreas in the intestine, and the oxidation of food is the source of animal energy. The oxidation process is also completed under the catalysis of a series of enzymes.

And this miraculous enzyme seems very strange. It not only acts on the outside of the cell, but also on the inside of the cell.

Jenny looked at Rebecca, who was not far away. The test product Catherine had just sent was an important prop to help Jenny discover the results.

It’s just that Rebecca looks something wrong at this time

The original white skin is now a healthy wheat color. This is the reason why Jenny has kept her exposed during this time.

It's just that there is a different place on this healthy skin-Rebecca has a white skin on the hand.

"The melanin has disappeared..."

This is the situation seen in the tissue sample

"No... it's that melanin has reached the initial level, and the content of melanin has dropped drastically...Oh, if only the development can be tracked..."

Jenny shook her head, then took the top of the petri dish with bacteria

On this petri dish, there are bacteria...or in other words, on the control group, there are all Staphylococcus aureus, but on the experimental group, there is nothing.

"Is it bactericidal ability?" Jenny guessed the function of this protein, which doesn’t know whether it is an enzyme or not.

Originally this was supposed to be a bacterial hotbed full of Staphylococcus aureus, but under the power of the liquid, these bacteria were all killed

"No... not so much as being killed... as it was with Rebecca..."

This kind of thing should be... to maintain the biological environment within a range?

Jenny doesn't quite understand right now

"Perhaps, we should do a cell division experiment..."

Jenny is thinking this time

According to my own speculation, this strange cell should not only be used for sterilization or something, but why is it ineffective for plants?

"No, it doesn't have to be invalid, but... is it seen through?"

Compared with the bacterial environment, the plant environment is not easy to simulate the situation similar to that of the body?

If you want to prove your own speculation, you must do it in a convenient situation.

According to Jenny’s understanding, this should be a protein that can keep the cells or the body in an optimal state. This protein should be able to keep the environment in the body in the best state, and because of this, All substances that affect this optimal state will be eliminated...In other words, it means that these things are forcibly eliminated because they affect the state of the body. These bacteria should be like this.

"It looks like something extraordinary has been discovered o..."

Jenny has a heartbeat feeling

In this case, Jenny certainly knows what it means-if the limit on the number of cell divisions is still there, then the theoretical life span of the class will reach the theoretical limit of 175 years.

And if this restriction is gone, then... immortality...?

Based on this principle, Jenny just now will consider doing cell division experiments.

Plant cells can divide indefinitely, which is different from animal cells

In theory, a plant cell can be cultivated into a plant. In the plant kingdom, this kind of cloning is very simple

The number of divisions of animal cells is limited

Generally speaking, after an animal cell divides to a certain number of times, a large number of them will die, and then a small number of cells can continue to divide until about 45 or 46 times, and all cells will die. However, at this time, there will be a small number of cells. Of cells survived, but these cells are no longer in the body, but...cancer cells

This split involves telomeres

The so-called telomere is the terminal part of the chromosome. This special structural region plays an important role in the structure and stability of the linear chromosome.

The special structure of the two ends of linear chromosomes

The function of telomere is to stabilize the structure of chromosome end, prevent the end connection between chromosomes, and compensate for the vacancy caused by the lagging strand end after the RNA primer is eliminated

Tissue cultured cells prove that telomeres play an important role in determining the lifespan of animal and plant cells. After multiple generations of cultured aging cells, telomeres become shorter and chromosomes become unstable.

In the organism, except for one cell, other cells are unavoidable.

Only germ cells are the exception, which have enzymes that can repair telomeres

"But in this situation, I wonder if telomerase is repairing it?"

Jenny is guessing

The current situation is very complicated, at least in Jenny’s opinion.

Without the means of the 21st century, in the 1970s, some problems wanted to be explained and resolved, which were really not ordinary difficulties.

It doesn’t seem to be that simple to demonstrate from a micro perspective

So at this time, Jenny wants to prove her point of view through the curve, that is through the method of tissue culture

"I don't know if it's useful for animals..."

Jenny can’t guarantee the result of this experiment, so at this time, Jenny didn’t dare to use Rebecca to do the experiment, so at this time Jenny decided to recruit a white mouse.

But the words of the white mouse... will it be considered as being in the body?

Not to mention, although Jenny didn’t prepare the guinea pigs herself, Catherine did a lot, and there will be supplies every month.

At this time, Jenny left the secret laboratory, and then went outside, then took a little white mouse and returned to the laboratory

"Last point..."

Jenny looked at the test tube. This is the final experimental material. If it doesn’t work, then I have to call Catherine to come and add it.

But it’s okay. In a few months, Catherine will move over to Catherine as a neighbor. At that time, how much material did she need and how much material she had. At this time, Jenny prepared the liquid, then took the syringe, and then The medicinal solution added with physiological saline was injected into the body of the mouse

The result... "Dead?"

"——It seems to be dead..."

"Really dead..."

There is no time for five minutes, this is the poor guinea mouse, he died... "Deadly..."

Jenny shook her head. It seems that this enzyme is really a poison to other organisms.... "I'll do an in vivo test..."

At this time, Jenny can only cast her eyes on Rebecca, who is quiet and quiet.

At this time, Rebecca was naked~lightnovelpub.net~, but it was still locked with a chain. The other party was very quiet and motionless.

"No...maybe through feeding"

Although I have done a skin test on Rebecca, I haven’t done any in-depth experiments, but this mouse was injected with the drug from the very beginning.

Maybe... If you feed it directly, there will be no problem?

So Jenny found another guinea pig over

"Feed and see..."

It is said to be feeding, but in fact it is to catch the mice, and then directly irrigate them

As a result... After about fifteen minutes, the mouse died... "Still dead...?"

Jenny frowned
