Biomedicine is the comprehensive application of principles and methods of life science and engineering science. From an engineering perspective, we understand the structure, function and other life phenomena of the human body at multiple levels including molecules, cells, tissues, organs and even the entire human body system. It has always been a popular industry.

Now, Mu Yang can choose one of the directions for research.

Such as tumors, aids, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, etc., if they can be solved, they can indeed benefit all mankind and bring themselves huge fame and wealth.

The problem is that Mu Yang himself and his family do not have these diseases, and he does not lack wealth or fame.

He wants to be a great person.

However, there is currently only one choice he can make.

Mu Yang felt that each of the ten directions given by the system was very good.

He didn't sleep all night, thinking about which one to choose, and he didn't fall asleep until he was so sleepy in the middle of the night.

the next day,

Mu Yang fell asleep again and woke up suddenly when his son stepped on his belly.

"Dad, I slept in. The sun is shining on my butt. Please get up quickly."

"You bad guy, don't let daddy sleep for a while." Mu Yang grabbed him and tickled his waist, tickling him until he laughed. He didn't dare to torment the child too much. I heard that it is easy to make the child speak awkwardly.

.

After getting up, rinsing his mouth and going downstairs, Malan saw his son coming downstairs and said with concern:

"Young people should be more restrained. You have children and you should pay attention to your health. I will make breakfast for you.

Mu Yang was a little speechless: "I slept a little late at work last night." However, my mother didn't quite believe his explanation.

There is also a chef at home, but sometimes my mother wants to do it herself, but she is afraid that her body will become stiff if she does not do any work, and she is also afraid that she will forget some skills.

When her mother brought breakfast, Mu Yang looked at her for a while. There were more and more wrinkles on her face. No matter how good her family's financial situation was, she still couldn't withstand the ravages of time.

For the grandparents who live in their hometown, their physical condition has not improved much since their family's economy improved. They still love vegetarian food and like home-grown vegetables. They do not eat meat for every meal. In fact, they are not like Mu Yang.

There is not much difference before my hairline, except that I live in a better environment and I no longer do it for money.

"Actually, I already have a choice in my mind, but I'm just a little unwilling to do so." While eating breakfast, Mu Yang already had a decision in his mind.

“If you choose to extend your life, as long as you live long enough and accumulate enough achievement points, you can still open up other research directions, and your family can also live longer.

But if he lives a short life, given the difficulty of obtaining achievement points, he feels that he can at most open up a third research direction in this life."

Mu Yang simply didn't go to the company this morning and stayed at home. After breakfast, he came to the study, calmed down, and thought about whether his choice was wrong.

About half an hour later, the analysis was completed again, and the result was still the same; it was better to choose lifespan first!

Maybe his choice is wrong, and maybe there is a better choice, but choosing this life-extending option is not too wrong.

With a lifespan, you have enough time to accumulate achievement points. Spending a thousand achievement points is nothing.

But if you choose other directions first, take the direction of longevity as the second direction.

The problem is, to accumulate 5,000 achievement points, one or two years is not enough.

Moreover, spending 5,000 achievement points at once will affect the development of other technologies.

This time, Mu Yang felt the preciousness of achievement points even more. Open the reading system, biomedicine column, and select item 7, Cell Engineering - Life Extension.

Choosing this one did not impart knowledge to him, it just opened the door for cheating.

After the confirmation, Mu Yang's achievement points suddenly dropped by 1,000 points.

Mu Yang found that some functions of cell fusion, cell bioreactors, chromosome transfer, organelle transplantation, gene transfer, cell and tissue culture, cell morphology and other subject skills were opened.

Not all cell disciplines are open, but only those related to longevity and longevity. You can use experience to learn.

Open the Achievement Point Store and search for life-extending technology on the regular shelves and special shelves.

All of a sudden, dozens of technologies were searched. "A technology to improve stem cells and extend life", "Cell division technology to extend life"

Mu Yang spent two hours and just looked at the introduction of dozens of technologies. Some technologies cannot be achieved with the technical level and conditions of the earth, and the medicinal plants required by some technologies are not available on the earth.

From the perspective of achievable technologies, the number of years of life extension ranges from 10 to 30 years. Most technologies cannot be improved at one time. For example, a drug that improves stem cells is based on the principle of increasing the life span of stem cells. One injection can increase life span by 5 years.

, a maximum of 3 injections can extend life by 15 years. If more than 3 injections are given, they will be ineffective.

Why failed?

Judging from the introduction, it mainly exceeds the endurance limit of stem cells.

So, can it be combined and superimposed to increase the lifespan?

Theoretically, as long as they are not of the same type, the lifespan can be superimposed.

For example, if you take a medicine to improve stem cells, and then take a medicine to control the number of stem cell divisions, it can superimpose the lifespan. As for how much it can be superimposed, you will only know after trying it.

However, if all is done to increase the lifespan of stem cells, it may fail, or it may be superimposed.

Through this, even if one technology can only extend life by 10 to 30 years, by superimposing multiple technologies, it is possible to extend life by more than 100 years.

Moreover, this is still the limitation of the level 7 reading system. If it is upgraded to level 8, there may be technology to extend the life span.

Life extension here does not mean invincibility.

Even if you are mortally wounded, you will die.

An irregular life, less exercise, an unbalanced diet, and lack of restraint in certain aspects of life will also shorten your lifespan. If you use medicines that increase your lifespan, the effect may be compromised.

The above life-extending technologies can indeed improve human vitality. For example, by replenishing stem cells into the body, they can promote facial and body recovery of skin, blood vessels and bones, joint recovery, menopausal symptoms, etc.

In addition, diabetes, periodontal disease, liver cirrhosis, kidney disease and brain damage are also expected to be improved.

Of course, some diseases unrelated to stem cells cannot be eliminated.

After understanding the introduction of these dozens of technologies, Mu Yang chose a life-extending technology that was relatively easy for him to implement, "a telomerase extension technology", which required 200 achievement points.

[Required subjects: Cell Morphology lv7, Chromosome Improvement Technology lv7, Bioelectrochemistry lv6...

Purchasing this technology also requires skills in multiple disciplines, as many as two

More than a dozen subjects and multiple lv7 skills.

Muyang has not yet learned biomedical technology. Now that it is activated, he can start learning through cheating.

After spending a lot of experience, I clicked the subject green, and then it showed that it could be purchased.

Confirm purchase.

Ten minutes later, Mu Yang was attracted to this technology and learned about telomeres and telomerase.

[Telomeres are special structures at the ends of linear chromosomes. In normal human cells, they can gradually shorten as cells divide.

In a new cell, every time the cell divides, the telomeres at the top of the chromosomes are shortened. When the telomeres can no longer be shortened, the cell cannot continue to divide. At this time, the cell has reached the generally accepted limit of 100 divisions and begins

die.

Discovered a type of telomerase that can maintain telomere length and revealed its unique role in the human body]

In addition to this knowledge, there is also much knowledge about related cells.

The final result of "A Telomerase Extension Technology" is medicine, which can improve cells in the human body through injection of medicine.

Each dose of medicine can theoretically extend your life by 5 years. You can wait for it to take effect for a period of time before taking it again. However, you can take it up to 4 times. Too many doses will be ineffective and may cause some bad symptoms.

In other words, if you don't know the situation and steal Mu Yang's medicine injection, your lifespan will be shortened if you don't do it right.

But no matter what, it can extend life and improve the vitality of the human body." This technology is also awesome. It seems that at present, I can only study it by myself and use it secretly by my family."

"Even if it goes out publicly, it requires others to bring something in exchange, which is definitely not something ordinary people can afford.

No one can remain calm. The more powerful people are, the more they value their life span.

Mu Yang's skills cannot always be concealed. When his family's life span exceeds 120 years old, the outside world will definitely have doubts.

But since his family's life expectancy exceeds 140 years, there must be speculation that Xinghai Group has developed a life-extending medicine.

However, at this time, it means that it costs tens of millions of yuan to administer a dose and hundreds of millions of yuan to maintain it a year, and it will not cause riots.

But when the life span exceeds 160+, the whole world wants to know the prescription of Xinghai Group.

However, by this time, if Mu Yang's grandparents are 160 years old, there will still be a hundred years left.

In a hundred years, Xinghai Group may have become a transcendent entity on earth.

Or, Muyang's family no longer lives on earth.

Maybe by that time, ordinary people will be able to achieve interstellar travel, and Mu Yang will also expose some of the life-extending things.

Mu Yang named the drug of "A Telomerase Extension Technology" as "Life No. 1"

Not everyone can use Life One. [Recommended age: 25+]

[Taboos: Prohibited for use by humans 12 years old and under]

Xinghai Group has a total of 108 floors, and floors 104 to 108 are temporarily vacant. Mu Yang plans to use the 105th floor of Xinghai Building as his Life No. 1 Research Laboratory.

In order to study this agent, it is necessary to purchase relevant instruments for research, such as fluorescence microscopes＿

At the same time, when a certain time comes, Mu Yang will disclose Life No. 1 to some people and exchange Life No. 1 for resources.

Therefore, he needs a pharmaceutical company or research institute as a cover to facilitate the procurement of equipment and raw materials for his research.
