I can view character attributes Chapter 377 Organ Cloning
Xia Xu spent nearly half a month in the special ward of the hospital. Cui Xinghua and Gu Haiming also checked the changes of the second heart and collected his body data.
During this period, Chen Leyao came to visit many times, and Tang Youxin also asked for leave to return several times. After seeing that his body was stable and recovered without any abnormality, he finally felt relieved.
Normally, it would take at least one month to recover from heart surgery to the point where he was barely discharged from the hospital, or even two or three months if it was slow, but in fact his recovery speed was much faster than normal.
After two days of storage of K protein, the strengthening mode of the second heart starts to operate continuously at low intensity, and the body spontaneously mobilizes nutrients to strengthen the body.
And this strengthening process is actually accompanied by a repairing process. Just like physical exercise strains the muscles, and then the body is repaired and strengthened, the strengthening mode of the second heart also stimulates the body's self-healing function.
Of course, it will definitely not reach the level of superpowers like Wolverine, or even a gecko with a broken tail, but it is still extremely efficient to quickly heal some wounds that have been sutured with modern medicine.
In the past sixteen days, almost half a month, Xia Xu can already be discharged from the hospital, but it is best to avoid strenuous exercise just in case.
Because of this, he has already undergone the discharge operation today, but he has not given up on the one-month vacation that was originally scheduled. He plans to cultivate in Decheng for another half a month. By the way, he also plans the main direction of Xinghai Creatures in the next stage.
"Fairy Wood"
Needless to say, Gu Haiming's side, the second heart project has basically come to an end. After half a month of data monitoring, no defects or hidden dangers have been found, and all functions are running normally.
The Berserk Heart cooperates with Cui Xinghua's blood circulation transformation plan, which can almost be said to be a mature human body transformation technology. In theory, anyone with the K-protein carrying physique can be transformed.
Unfortunately, the universality is still slightly flawed. The efficacy of the heart of rage is essentially based on the special physique of the k-protein carrier, and the audience is relatively rare, and the cultivation of the heart requires the use of experimental monkeys from Inkebio. Costs start in the tens of millions.
However, these are all considerations based on the scope of commercial products. In terms of functionality, they are now perfect enough, and they can gradually improve their universality and reduce manufacturing costs in the future.
It's just that these can be handed over to other researchers underneath, and it's not worthwhile for a top genetic engineer like Gu Haiming to focus on it.
There is no suspense in the next stage of tasks that Xia Xu arranged for him. Naturally, it is the giant glands and related materials that he brought back this time.
The information on the giant glands he obtained from Gardner is not complete, it can even be said to be only a small part, but sometimes, technology and achievements cannot be confused.
"So, we can create a giant experimental body by directly cloning this part of the brain gland sample?"
Xia Xu, who had just been discharged from the hospital and returned to Xinghai Biological's underground laboratory, got an unexpected good news after learning about the progress of giant gland research from Gu Haiming.
Naturally, he had already handed over the data and samples of the giant glands to Gu Haiming when he returned, so during the half month he was hospitalized, Gu Haiming and the others were also analyzing and studying that part of the data in addition to testing the condition of the second heart.
"Theoretically so."
Gu Haiming nodded slightly and continued, "The part of the brain gland samples you brought back should be the latest samples they are studying and it seems that they have already had a successful case.
Although I couldn't re-modulate it from the beginning to the end because of the lack of data, it is not very difficult to directly use the cloning technology to replicate this alienated brain gland. After trying for a while, I can find a cloning solution. "
Cloning, this is actually not a word that is very far from human beings.
The story of cloning Dolly the sheep is believed to be seen by most people in biology books. As early as 1996, humans have completed the cloning of sheep using somatic cell nuclear transfer technology.
Of course, the textbook says that Dolly died prematurely due to a cloning defect.
However, what the textbook does not say is that only Dolly died, and her cloned sisters and descendants of the same period, mice, fish, pigs, etc., which various biologists tried to clone in the future, are all alive and well.
Dolly's death was simply an exception.
If there are no ethical and legal concerns, even cloning humans would not be so difficult today.
Of course, compared to cloning a complete living body, it is obviously technically much more difficult to clone individual organs, especially cloned tissues that have been differentiated directly without using egg cells.
But this is obviously not a problem for Gu Haiming. Although the berserk heart is genetically modulated, its cultivation process is actually no different from cloning.
Using the induced pluripotent stem cell technology that has appeared in 2000 and won the Nobel Prize in 2012, even the differentiated cells such as skin and even blood cells can be restored to pluripotent stem cells.
Pluripotent stem cells, as the name suggests, are extremely 'pluripotent'. Although they cannot develop into complete individuals, they can theoretically differentiate into any cell type of the organism through the induction of adapted molecular signals.
Based on this, and with various technologies to provide a growth environment, these cells can spontaneously develop into tissues and organs according to genetic programs, so let alone the heart, even the brain can theoretically be cloned.
Therefore, not only Seablue Star, if you really want to do something, even the group of biologists on Earth has great potential.
Of course, the above is only a simple description, and the real situation of organ cloning is definitely more complicated.
For example, looking for molecular signals that induce differentiation. For example, it is difficult for an organ to develop alone. Normal growth and formation requires corresponding culture and regulation programs. Induced pluripotent stem cells can only differentiate into corresponding individual organs and lack blood vessels and blood, etc. Tissues and organs cannot supply nutrients to grow and so on.
However, these are obviously not big problems for Gu Haiming. As long as he is willing to spend time and energy on research, the difficulty is slightly greater than cultivating a violent heart.
"Dr. Gu, you said that in theory, so there should be a but after that?"
Xia Xu was not carried away by Gu Haiming's good news.
"Uh, ahem, this... well, there is a but."
After being exposed, Gu Haiming coughed twice in embarrassment and said, "The data about the giant glands are all from the part of the data you brought back, so I can't know the true situation, unless we Human experiments are also conducted, but this also..."
The concern on Gu Haiming's face was obvious.
The giant glands are not the berserk heart that he himself prepared and cultivated. Xia Xu brought back only a very small part of the research data~IndoMTL.com~ Through this information, he has nothing to do with the giant glands at all. With in-depth knowledge, even some of the known experimental data were obtained through the research data of an illegal organization.
No, it can't even be said to be research materials. Those are completely temporary records that have not been formally archived. The experimental data recorded in it is not reliable. Has it been verified?
If you want to verify the above data, you can only use the current giant gland samples for biological experiments.
If he wants to study the giant glands in depth, he can only conduct biological experiments without real research and development materials.
However, this gland is a human brain gland, and even if it is alienated, it can only be adapted to humans.
However, such a completely unknown experimental sample that is likely to cause various distortions in the human body, and the technical details are not well understood. To apply it directly to human experiments is tantamount to managing human life.
"Forget about human experiments, let's not be in a hurry. If it really doesn't work, we'll study it slowly, or I'm trying to see if I can get better technology."
Xia Xu couldn't be as cold-blooded as Gardner. If he did it this way, it would only make Gu Haiming, Cui Xinghua and the others estranged. Therefore, it was naturally impossible to agree to such a thing. After he shook his head decisively, he continued to ask: "Giant glands aside, what about epiphyseal restart technology? Is there one in there?"
