Sleepless Doctor

"There are similar things, and similar cases have been published in the New England Journal of Medicine.

A 52-year-old mother named Keegan urgently needed a kidney transplant. Two adult sons received genetic tests to select more suitable candidates.

As a result, the two sons were genetically incompatible with him. After two years of confusion, the doctor discovered that Keegan was a human Chimera chimera patient. "

"This is a natural chimera, and acquired." Wu Mian continued.

"Huh?" Lin Daoshi was surprised.

The amount of information received today caused Lin Daoshi to feel a little dizzy. In his opinion, things that he would never encounter in a lifetime were sparse and common from the words of the little uncle.

"Research published in "Bone Marrow Transplantation" under "Nature" in 2004 showed that blood transfusion will temporarily carry some donor's cells; and patients receiving bone marrow transplantation will permanently become a chimera."

"This is the artificial chimera, which appeared during the treatment process. There are many related reports. There are 35 various reports in medical journals in the past 10 years, discussing the changes in genes after bone marrow transplantation."

[Country] "The research on chimera is not extensive. After all, it is a rare case. It is still a marginal branch of science. In a few years, it may cause a major change in gene editing. It may not necessarily be a few years later. This year’s Nobel Prize may give the doctrine of gene editing, which will surely lead to more research at that time."

"Dr. Wu, Zhou Qinyin... The colors of her left and right body are different. If Chimera chimeras are all like this, would it be easy to tell? Why don't everyone know?" Chuang Jiaqi asked.

"Oh, that's the case." Wu Mian said, "Most of the patients with Chimera chimera manifest themselves internally, while a small number of them are manifested on the body surface."

"What do you mean, little uncle?" Lin Daoshi was confused by Wu Mianrao, and interrupted him directly and asked.

"Take another example." Wu Mian said, "For example, the chimerism of American model Taylor Millin is directly reflected in the skin color. I have not seen Zhou Qinyin's skin in different colors, but I think it should be the same as Taylor Millin. Similar. And Zhou Qinyin is a more special case, her genes inside and outside are all manifestations of mosaicism."

"It's all..." Jiaqi whispered.

"The research on chimera is not enough. Many theories are just theories and lack the support of clinical data."

"Human scientific research is biased towards the profitable piece because of the involvement of capital. Many rare diseases are not understood by existing technology research, but because they are rare diseases and there are not enough patients available for research. Or there is no profit at all, and no one is thinking about these diseases."

Wu Mian said with a smile.

"Doctor Wu, I think you are biased against capital." Chuang Jiaqi said with a smile while holding his glasses. The words were very gentle, although Wu Mian was wrong, but it was not annoying.

"Haha, it's the old saying, as long as there is a profit, capitalists don't mind selling the noose to the people who hang them. This is the profession, this is the profession!" Wu Mian said.

"..."

"A simple theory is very boring. There are countless examples in this area, just say one." Wu Mian said, "Auergesellschaft in Berlin, Germany, was founded by Carl Auer, who invented the lampshade for steam lamps. During World War II, a toothpaste called Doramad was invented. ."

"toothpaste?"

"Well, it’s just toothpaste. It’s no different from all kinds of toothpaste advertisements now. Healthy gums, bacteria eradication, teeth whitening and so on. Didn’t I just say that the latest technology kills more people, such as this Kind of toothpaste." Wu Mian said.

"Then what?" Lin Daoshi likes gossip the most. The little uncle has a lot of knowledge, so he listened with great gusto. From chimera to toothpaste, there is no sense of contradiction at all.

"AuerGesselshaft is a chemical company that is engaged in uranium ore processing and processing. The Germans feel that thorium is more important than imagined in atomic research, so they have accumulated a large amount of thorium."

"..." Lin Daoshi smacked his tongue.

"At the end of World War II, the German army was defeated, and the United States was technically desperate to obtain the fruits of the Germans and use them. At that time, whether thorium was a better raw material for atomic bombs, Americans had no idea."

"Shortly after the liberation of Paris, Altsos' troops found Terres-Rares, only to find that the company had gone upstairs and was empty. They panicked at the time, for fear that Germany would produce hundreds of atomic bombs at the last minute. , Everyone is finished together."

Although I know that history is not like this, Jiaqi is still a little nervous.

Indeed, the progress of history is sometimes quite random, and perhaps a small accident led to the turning of the historical river.

"Later, an isotope separation laboratory in Hessingen was thought to be the most likely to retain the materials that were separated by the Germans to make atomic bombs. So the soldiers went to search and found buried there in a cave near Hessingen. A ton and a half of metal thorium cubes."

"So much!" Although Lin Daoshi doesn't know how much thorium is worth, it is a rare metal after all, and it is generally measured in grams, and even milligrams is not surprising.

Germany is really rich, and the rare element thorium is directly calculated in tons.

"Well, it's a ton and a half of thorium. But the ending is unexpected. These thorium elements are not intended to be used by the head of state to make an atomic bomb."

"What is that for?" Jiaqi asked curiously.

The radioactive element thorium is not a treasure for normal people at all, but impermanence that kills life.

"Auer company realizes that the war is over, and also realizes that the business losses brought about by it are unbearable by the capital. Defeat is inevitable, but what does it have to do with capital? The natural mission of capital is to add value~ www.wuxiaspot.com~ is swallowed and then turned into profit." Wu Mian said with a smile.

Chuang Jiaqi wanted to refute, but he knew that it was best not to upset Wu Mian, so he could hold back after thinking about it. And if you want to refute, there seems to be nothing to say.

"They believe that only related daily necessities such as skin care products and cosmetics can bring about a new future. At that time, radium was already used in toothpaste, and the updated product was thorium. Thorium is more suitable for daily necessities than radium."

Wu Mian's words were so absurd that Lin Daoshi and Wei Dabao were dumbfounded. Even Chuang Jiaqi's eyes widened. They couldn't believe that people would think so eighty years ago.

In the hospital, many patients do not want to be checked because of radiation. But less than a hundred years ago, these radioactive materials were actually used for daily necessities!

Jiaqi knew that radium was a best seller at that time, and many daily necessities, including cigarettes, contained radium.

But the thorium element has not been heard.
