They were analyzing and discussing the binding thod.
Han Hui believed that it was a common "attachnt" effect. "This small protein substance is similar to the 2CV-Bing Hydrogen Molecule, but it cannot weaken the ability of the AIDS virus to invade cells. Perhaps it just adheres to the surface of the virus, binding with so protein."
Her description was like "dust sticking to the virus."
Although the dust might make the virus look strange, it wouldn’t have any positive effect.
Yan Xuelin also participated in the discussion, thinking that it was still worth researching. "We can carefully analyze its composition to see how different it is from the 2CV-Bing Hydrogen Molecule."
"From researching it, we might find a way to mass-produce drugs made from the 2CV-Bing Hydrogen Molecule."
Li Ming said, "I think that it might not necessarily lead to drug developnt, but it might have other effects."
The others looked at him.
Li Ming analyzed, "First of all, it can act on rod-shaped bacterial antibodies, making them ineffective. Conversely, this ans weakening immune function, and it could be used to make immunosuppressive drugs."
"Yeah!"
"Makes sense!"
"A new small protein molecule might have other effects, that’s correct!"
The others nodded in agreent.
There are many types of drugs. So drugs are used to suppress immunity. The main effect of immunosuppressive drugs is to reduce the body’s rejection of foreign substances.
For example, heart stents.
Stents placed in blood vessels are definitely considered "foreign objects" and are subject to rejection by the body’s immune system. Patients who have undergone heart stent surgery need long-term use of immunosuppressive drugs to alleviate the immune system’s rejection response.
The new small protein substances can bind to rod-shaped antigens, possibly making them useful in manufacturing so special drugs.
"I think..."
Zhao Yi suddenly spoke, and everyone looked at him. He continued, "I think that perhaps we have all underestimated the role of this small protein molecule." Although he said "we," he was actually referring to the others.
"How so?" Yan Xuelin asked with interest.
Zhao Yi was slightly agitated but took a deep breath and seriously said, "Small protein molecules can combine with the HIV virus. Maybe they aren’t just attaching. Perhaps they have other effects?"
"For example, marking the virus like an antibody?"
He looked at the others after speaking.
Yan Xuelin’s eyes widened. After hearing this, Han Hui and Li Ming were also surprised with their mouths open, "No way!"
"Impossible!"
"It’s an external substance secreted by E.coli. There is no way it can work as an antibody!"
Several people shook their heads.
Zhao Yi continued, "What if it binds with the rod-shaped bacterial antibodies? Rod-shaped bacterial antibodies mark rod-shaped bacteria. This small protein molecule adheres to the surface of HIV, then binds with rod-shaped bacterial antibodies. The immune system might be able to recognize HIV as..."
He spoke slowly.
Han Hui imdiately understood and quickly added, "...as a rod-shaped bacterium and eliminate it?"
"——!!"
All the people in the lab widened their eyes, finally realizing why Zhao Yi beca excited. They felt their brains buzzing as if they were going to explode after hearing his analysis.
If the AIDS virus could be recognized by the human immune system, whether as the AIDS virus itself or as a rod-shaped bacterium, the outco would be the sa – it would certainly be eradicated by the immune system’s phagocytes.
What does this an?
Yan Xuelin stated confidently, "This ans we’ve solved AIDS!"
"That’s right!"
"In the future, AIDS could be cured by dication!"
Ai Lixin, who had been standing on the side without speaking, suddenly dashed to the door at the height of the excitent, looking left and right after opening it.
Dai Tianqing ca over and asked, "Old Ai, I heard you’ve made so new discoveries? What did you find?"
"Nothing to tell!"
Ai Lixin shouted, slamming the door shut. The door almost hit Dai Tianqing’s face.
"Click!"
Locked!
Dai Tianqing stood at the door, puzzled. He raised his hand to knock but stopped. Frustrated, he asked, "What’s going on? Why? We are all in this research together. What do you an by ’nothing to tell’? Are you worried that I’m spying on you?"
"Your research?"
"Our group is about to have so major breakthroughs!"
Dai Tianqing’s mood improved greatly as he strolled back to the lab, whistling.
...
"Research this!"
"Exactly! Research this!"
"I’m going to apply for confidentiality from my superiors imdiately. Before we confirm the effect, no one leaves the entire research institute!"
Yan Xuelin made a quick decision.
Last ti they applied for confidential research to their superiors was because they had discovered the 2CV-Bing Hydrogen Molecule. While the 2CV-Bing Hydrogen Molecule can weaken the AIDS virus, it can’t eliminate it.
Additionally, the effectiveness of the 2CV-Bing Hydrogen Molecule was not yet officially confird. However, theoretically, its effect wouldn’t be astonishing. The human body will break down the 2CV-Bing Hydrogen Molecule, which is a non-targeting protein that only weakens the AIDS virus when it encounters it in the bloodstream. This ans that large doses of injections might be required, possibly causing other side effects.
For example, increasing the burden on the kidneys.
But the newly discovered small protein molecule was different. Since it is a mutated E.coli secretion targeting rod-shaped bacterial antibodies, the human body might not recognize and break it down. Moreover, it sticks to the surface of the HIV virus and combines with rod-shaped bacterial antibodies, essentially marking the HIV virus.
