Chapter 129 The Elixir
AIM protein is a component in mammals that was accidentally discovered by Toru Miyazaki in the 90s of the last century when he was studying immune-related genes at the Institute of Immunology.

It was not until recent years that we fully understood what kind of role this thing plays in animals.

The AIM protein, also known as CD5L, is produced by the immune cells of macrophages and is a secreted protein that helps macrophages recognize and destroy dead cells and other debris.

It may not be clear in professional terms, but in other words, most people may know what this thing is for.

AIM proteins control and target dying cells in renal tubules in mammals.

Originally, this study was more about the relationship between AIM and kidney disease. Toru Miyazaki has been focusing on obesity and liver cancer in his research for such a long time.

But this paper research is very interesting. The amino acid arrangement in the AIM protein of cats is slightly different from that of humans, which makes AIM unable to function.

And Toru Miyazaki's research is aimed at this aspect to control the cat's kidney disease.

Zhou Luzhong knows that 90.00% of the causes of death of cats, except feline plague, are kidney diseases, and the elderly cats are basically dying of kidney diseases.

In the description of this paper, the AIM protein in cats can be activated through the call of AIM.

This also means that if the research is successful, the life expectancy of cats in the world will be extended to 30 years old!

Shen Nan saw that Wen Wanwan had finished reading the thesis, so he started to explain.

"At present, the application value of AIM for cats has not been reflected, but if it can work for kittens, I think most cats should be able to use it."

"I see. I will contact the higher-ups when I have time in the next few days, and try to get a batch of samples for backup."

Hearing this, Shen Nan hesitated for a moment before speaking.

"Actually, there's no need to go to the head. I can contact Professor Miyazaki with my personal relationship. It's just a few spare samples that should be fine."

"Ok?"

Seeing Wen Wanwan's questioning eyes, Shen Nan organized his words before speaking.

"In 2021, Professor Miyazaki fell into an economic crisis. At the beginning, cat owners who knew the news made a lot of donations, which allowed this research to continue."

"One of my classmates participated in an academic exchange at the University of Tokyo and donated a large sum of money. The relationship with Professor Miyazaki is pretty good."

Hearing this, Wen Wanwan's eyes lit up immediately: "Then I'll leave this matter to you. If you need money, just tell me. The aid station still has a lot on its books."

"Okay, I'll contact that classmate tomorrow!"

Shen Nan directly took over the task, this sample is of great use to the rescue station.

There are a lot of cats in the Changbai Mountain area. Far Eastern leopards, Siberian tigers, and a series of animals can use this AIM protein.

Wen Wanwan watched Shen Nan leave, and also focused on the barrage in the live broadcast room.

Looking at the question marks on the entire screen, he organized a language introduction.

After introducing the functions of AIM, Wen Wanwan finally came up with a summary.

"In theory, this research has now entered the stage of clinical trials, and animal drugs are not as strict as human approval."

"Two years at the latest, probably we'll see the drug being produced."

Qingning Yunxia: [Rice, don't worry, mom will let you eat this elixir! 】

Gu Yiran: [I swear, I will not be late or leave early, I will be the first to rush if there is a task, and I will definitely give my glutinous rice a bite of this flat peach! 】

It's just pity: [It doesn't matter, for the sake of my two rebellious sons, I have to buy this elixir no matter what! 】

Seeing the excitement of a group of cat owners in the live broadcast room, Wen Wanwan didn't hit them hard.

"Although this drug is not yet available, Toru Miyazaki mentioned in his paper that he developed a cat food called AIM30, which added a small amount of this ingredient."

"This kind of cat food is definitely not as effective as medicine, but if it is eaten all year round, it will also have a relief effect on the cat's kidneys."

In a word, the bullet screens in the live broadcast room are much rarer.

This group of people couldn't wait for their cat owners to eat this cat food tainted with fairy spirit.

Of course, the use of AIM protein is definitely not just for cats. The ultimate goal of Miyazaki's research on this protein is also to treat Alzheimer's disease, which is commonly known as senile dementia.

Although Wen Wanwan has never met him, she also thinks he is really nice.

The cat owners let his research continue, and he also carried out long-term research on cats. He even developed a cat food in advance to help sick cats delay some time.

After playing with the group of cats in the cage for a while, Wen Wanwan also stretched and stood up.

"That's the end of today's live broadcast. It's getting late. If you have nothing to do tomorrow, I'll show you the animals at the rescue station."

With a barrage of "see you tomorrow" in the live broadcast room, Wen Wanwan quickly turned off the live broadcast.

He looked at Shen Nan who hadn't left all this time: "Tell me, what's the matter?"

After Shen Nan was silent for a moment, he opened his mouth slowly.

"Station Master, have you ever thought about what the rescue station will look like in the future?"

Hearing this, Wen Wanwan was also taken aback for a moment, then leaned back on the chair and began to think.

Originally, she just wanted to keep the rescue station going. If she had some spare money, she could change the living conditions of these animals on Changbai Mountain, which was considered pretty good.

Every generation has its mission. The old webmasters of the previous generation mainly resisted poachers and protected these animals.

But when it came to her, it was more about restoring the population of these rare animals and restarting a large number of reproduction.

Shen Nan watched Wen Wanwan without opening his mouth for a long time, and put Toru Miyazaki's paper on the table.

"Station Master, your medicine is amazing, at least for animals, most of them are no less than this elixir."

"What if the rescue station can have its own laboratory?"

"We don't even need to study the drug of the webmaster. As long as we get the authorization of Toru Miyazaki's AIM protein, we can develop targeted drugs for cats."

"But if the station master only intends to guard Changbai Mountain and take care of the animals on it, this is also an option."

Hearing Shen Nan's words, Wen Wanwan scratched her hair.

"The laboratory, isn't it a bit too far for us?"

Hearing Wen Wanwan's words, a slight smile appeared on Shen Nan's immobile face.

The first step to draw a cake for the boss, success!
