Fury Immortal Doctor

Chapter 1745 - 1748: Anthrax Toxin Lethal Protein 1jky

Hearing what Shen Qiang said, Boss Ma's eyes lit up, then he smiled and said: "Qiang, I know you're very capable and impressive. I've benefited a lot from you, but this colorectal cancer isn't a minor ailment. I've already consulted the country's top experts, so don't make reckless promises here. Don't end up making me hate you."Shen Qiang smiled.

Sun Kaiping also smiled and then said seriously to Shen Qiang: "Qiang, you're about the same age as my son, but when the three of us hang out together, we don't stand on ceremony. But concerning Boss Ma's illness, you shouldn't make firm promises. After all, the bigger the hope, the bigger the disappointment."

"After all, you're still young. So many veteran experts couldn't treat it with confidence, and if you take full responsibility, it's not true that Old Ma would end up hating you, but he's afraid you might take it too personally if things don't go well in the future. So let's just do what we can for him, and when he can't hold on any longer, spend some money to find a few pretty girls for him, sing him a tune or something, and his life will be perfect."

Boss Ma laughed: "Just eat your meal, you talk as if you know me so well."

Then, Sun Kaiping and Boss Ma started bickering, exchanging various crude jokes, laughing and chatting animatedly, seemingly having a good time.

But in reality, Shen Qiang could sense that inside, they weren't as happy as they appeared.

Especially when Boss Ma received a call and insisted on returning a few days later, Shen Qiang suddenly realized that Boss Ma's reluctance to go home wasn't because of missing those long-legged old traditional Chinese medicine doctors.

Rather, he feared seeing his wife cry.

The reality was heavy.

Shen Qiang felt inexplicably a bit depressed too.

But before the meal was finished, Shen Qiang received a call from Mrs. Ma.

"I've secured an appointment with the best expert in the country. Can you come back to the hospital? After they've seen Old Ma, I'll take the kids home." Mrs. Ma was trying to ensure Boss Ma would go and made a promise over the phone.

Shen Qiang, helpless, had to accompany Sun Kaiping and Boss Ma back to the hospital where Boss Ma was undergoing conservative treatment.

Arriving at the ward.

After meeting several experts, their advice was still to proceed with surgery as soon as possible.

When Shen Qiang mentioned using ancient Chinese medicine formulas for Boss Ma's treatment, the experts laughed.

"Young man, I find you quite familiar, so I'll say a bit more. Traditional Chinese Medicine is effective, but it's like a game of Go, every move affects the entire board; whereas modern medicine is like a surgical knife, treating exactly where the problem is, which is the quickest and most effective way."

"It's joking to say Chinese medicine can't treat cancer at all, but according to Chinese medicine theory, everyone's constitution is different. It's impossible for one prescription to cure all diseases."

One expert even arrogantly said, "If Chinese medicine could treat cancer, we wouldn't need surgeries."

If it were before, Shen Qiang would definitely argue with them without any reservations.

But now the situation is different, with Boss Ma's wife and children around, Shen Qiang doesn't want to argue with anyone.

Besides, after hearing the experts, knowing Mrs. Ma realized surgery was hopeless, she chose to support Shen Qiang's idea, although she probably didn't really believe in it.

Returning to the ward, Shen Qiang still chose to tell Boss Ma to stop the medication first.

Boss Ma agreed indifferently.

Then Shen Qiang called Ye Guyun and quickly returned to the Provincial City, going directly to Tianyou Medicine's laboratory to check the limited experimental data.

Because Shen Qiang is the boss, the new researchers in the lab, nervously explained: "Anthrax toxin is produced by a rare large bacterium. Once its spores adhere to the skin or lungs, they grow rapidly and produce a three-part lethal toxin."

"This toxin can cause massive cell death, leading to terrifying outcomes. However, the anthrax toxin's three proteins, when separated, are each non-toxic, as proven in our mouse tests. The edema factor and lethal factor of proteins numbered 1k90 and 1jky have certain effects on cancer cell destruction."

"But the immune system produces antibodies against anthrax toxin proteins, so we're trying to block the body's immune response using the chemotherapy drugs Pentastatin and Cyclophosphamide. So far, the mice receiving this treatment are alive, while another group, due to the rapid cancer cell proliferation, had to be euthanized."

Hearing this, Shen Qiang carefully looked over the reports on the saline control group, anthrax toxin protein group, PC group, or anthrax toxin protein combined with PC group, and seriously said to the nervous new researcher: "I understand the general situation, but what I need to know now is how much longer it will take to get the complete experimental report?"

"I mean the part concerning whether there is serious risk to humans," Shen Qiang raised his eyebrows.

"We're unsure about humans, but for mouse-related risks of causing other complications, the earliest would be forty days!" Another person earnestly and excitedly said: "If everything goes smoothly."

Shen Qiang frowned, then asked: "Is there a faster method?"

Many researchers shook their heads.

This made Shen Qiang knit his brows. Indeed, Boss Ma is relatively stable now, but those who seem the happiest often harbor inner worries, and forty days is obviously too long. By then, even if the disease doesn't affect Boss Ma too much, if he can't cheer up, he might end it himself.

So this can't wait.

"Alright, I understand. Please continue your research. I'm proud of you." After saying this to the researchers, Shen Qiang, accompanied by Ye Guyun and Ke Bizhu, returned directly to the Heshenghe Mountain Villa, played with his children, and then

Shen Qiang shut himself in the villa's basement.

Given the current situation.

The anthrax virus protein has three types. One can be used to make a vaccine, labeled as protective antigen protein 1acc, another as the edema factor protein labeled 1k90, and the third as the lethal protein labeled 1jky.

Obviously, the truly effective protein in killing cancer cells is 1jky.

Shen Qiang is now a powerhouse in the Cultivation World.

Having achieved cultivation at the Mixed Element Realm.

But even so, trying to use divine sense and True Yuan to control the patient's cells and body's immune functions is still impossible.

So how to bypass the immune system is key.

Sitting seriously in the basement, Shen Qiang is thinking intensely.

"Brutally destroying the body's immune functions won't work. Even if colorectal cancer is cured, Boss Ma would die from other diseases or infections, so the focus must still be on the cancer cells."
