"Power Bank..."
Upon hearing Lin Li’s statent, Wang Qiang’s expression beca sowhat awkward.
As the queen of witty remarks, she wanted to say sothing to reclaim her spotlight.
However, after moving her lips a few tis, she suddenly found herself at a loss for words.
Lin Li didn’t notice his disciple’s inner drama at this mont and continued:
"Xiao Wang, keep following up on Hua Xiaomo’s situation.
We had agreed on a seven-day observation period, of which three days have already passed. If there is no abnormality in the next few days...
Give her a fixed electronic wristband, and then ask Colonel Lin for a few people to appropriately allow her so chances to get so fresh air. You and Colonel Lin can discuss the specifics of her activity range at that ti."
When it ca to the main tasks, Wang Qiang was still very attentive and quickly noted Lin Li’s arrangent in the experint mo:
"No problem."
Afterward, Lin Li thought of sothing and asked:
"By the way, since I’m rarely here at your lab... has there been any new progress in the research on spiritual energy?"
Wang Qiang nodded:
"I was about to tell you, our team has indeed made so unique discoveries, follow ."
After speaking, she led Lin Li to a test bench.
The test bench was covered with several groups of sealed containers, among which several glass vessels were laid out.
These glass vessels contained gas and moss, and so had small white mice living inside.
Lin Li noticed that these little white mice seed to be more robust than usual, and their fur was very dense.
Additionally, several precise instrunts were attached to the inner walls of the containers, with flashing indicator lights showing they were continually recording various data inside the containers.
Wang Qiang entered several passwords on the file storage rack beside the console and took out an experint report about a centiter thick.
She then handed these experint reports to Lin Li and pointed to the glass vessels, explaining:
"Captain Lin, the 11% unidentified gas we found when we first arrived at the Damo Realm can now be confird to be spiritual energy.
Moreover, based on our tests, spiritual energy greatly benefits the growth and developnt of plants and animals.
For example, these little white mice we brought from ho have now increased their size by 20% and their fur has beco very lush, all due to the spiritual energy infused atmosphere.
Additionally, we conducted an experint where we removed the TERC component from the mice, and three days later we observed a skewed HSC lineage potential phenotype.
That is to say, spiritual energy can to so extent promote the production of telorase in organisms!"
Upon hearing the word telorase.
Lin Li’s pupils contracted heavily once more.
He took a deep breath, focused his mind, and carefully reviewed the experint report produced by Wang Qiang’s team.
As biology students should know.
The cells of the human body do have a limit on division.
Aside from germ cells, nerve cells, and cancer cells, the division limit of regular human cells is generally about 50-60 tis.
And cell division, is controlled by a substance called telore.
As is widely known.
Telores are located at both ends of linear eukaryotic chromosos and consist of highly repetitive DNA sequences (for humans, TTAGGG) and telore-binding proteins.
Currently, it’s discovered that telore-binding proteins mainly have 6 subunits, which are TRF1, TRF2, TIN2, Rap1, POT1, and TPP1, together forming the telore protection protein complex.
Because the direction of DNA replication must be from the 5’ to the 3’ direction, every ti DNA is replicated, which is every cell division, telores shorten a bit.
Telore length in human cells is about 8000-10000bp, dividing every 2.4-2.6 years, shortening telores by 30–100bp each division.
Once telores are completely exhausted and can no longer shorten, the cell can no longer divide.
Cells are thus led to apoptosis.
Scientists thus deduced that the human life limit is 130 years.
Thus.
A person’s aging process is actually their telores getting shorter.
And when talking about telores, one must ntion another concept:
Telorase.
Telorase was first discovered in cervical cancer cells by Professor Morin from Maple Country—the notorious old pervert who fild students’ panties with a global top ten precision experintal cara in a lab—in 1989.
And in 2009, there was a significant breakthrough.
The reason the three Nobel Prize winners in Biology and dicine in 2009 won was due to discovering the chanism of telorase protecting chromosos.
Telorase is a ribonucleoprotein enzy that can extend the ends of telores, composed mainly of RNA and protein.
It contains prir-specific recognition sites, using its RNA as a template, synthesizes telore DNA, and adds it to the chromoso ends to extend telores, thus extending cell life, potentially even making them...
Immortal.
Of course.
The scientific community’s current understanding of telorase is still shallow, only ascertaining its apparent effect on aging, lacking a mature thod to produce and activate it in large amounts.
Once the telorase-related codes are cracked, watching Conan’s finale in this lifeti shouldn’t be a problem.
They might even see the Chinese team make it to the World Cup?
Haha.....
Back to the laboratory.
If, as Wang Qiang said, spiritual energy indeed can stimulate telorase production.
At least, it could explain why cultivators have a significantly high lifespan.
The lifespan of those in the Qi Cultivation Stage is only slightly higher than ordinary people.
Even cultivators at the Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer rarely live past ninety before their energy and blood dry up.
However, once breakthrough into the Foundation Establishnt Stage occurs, the lifespan of cultivators keeps increasing.
For instance, Wei Siming, once at the Foundation Establishnt Ninth Layer, would likely have no problem living to be one hundred seventy or eighty years if he didn’t attempt to break through the Foundation Establishnt Barrier.
Core Formation Realm and Nascent Soul Realm are even more extre.
Rumors say that large cultivators at the Nascent Soul Realm can live five to six hundred years without much pressure.
In so folklore, tales about so-called millennial Nascent Soul Old Monsters are still often heard.
For example, certain famous long-distance runners with the last na Han, or a pockmarked individual with the surna Wang, or mysterious figures nad Luo Yinglong, and so on....
Overall, after reaching the Foundation Establishnt Stage.
The lifespan of cultivators is already beyond the range of human beings.
But from a telore perspective.
These cultivators generated large amounts of activated telorase while breaking through the realm barriers.
Thus reversing telore attrition, increasing the limit of cell division tis, achieving a lifespan far surpassing ordinary people.
This could indeed be logically explained— or at least, this is what current assumptions about telorase are, just scientists haven’t found that kind of α substance that can activate telorase, while spiritual energy directly accomplished it.
Or in so sense.....
Would the reason scientists on Earth haven’t found this α substance even after over a decade of effort be the absence of spiritual energy on Earth?
Thinking of this.
Lin Li couldn’t help but grip the report tightly.
If this is indeed the case.
The importance of the Damo Realm will be elevated imnsely once more!
Of course.
All the above are still baseless speculation and even contain a degree of subjective bias.
To confirm the accuracy of these speculations, the plant life team... or rather, the entire Life Experint Base still has a very long way to go.
Following this, he took a deep breath and asked Wang Qiang:
"Xiao Wang, does your team have any other discoveries regarding spiritual energy?"
Wang Qiang responded with a bright smile, revealing a pair of little tiger teeth:
"Yes, indeed!"
