v2 Chapter 605: Tribute to greatness (1/2)
Artemisinin? Lupus erythematosus?
Can these two unrelated things be linked together?
Forgive them for studying less, they are really unexpected.
Of course, without waiting for them to understand, Tu Youyou in the audience has spoken again: ”My other report today is the use of artemisinin to cure lupus erythematosus!”
”There is a good saying that the inspiration of a scientist is like the white dove that flashes away, and the white dove in the field of life sciences has become an incredible coincidence.”
“It’s actually a coincidence that artemisinin can cure lupus erythematosus. When we were experimenting with artemisinin-resistant treatments, we collected blood from a patient. ”
”In his blood, antinuclear antibodies can be positive, rheumatoid factor can be positive, immunoglobulins (IgG, IGA, IGM) can be elevated at the same time, and anti-ENA antibodies can be positive.”
”After further testing and diagnosis, we learned that this patient was a carrier of lupus erythematosus.”
”According to the process, this sample should be invalidated, but due to the progress of the test, this sample was eventually retained and the test was successful.”
”Coincidentally, after adding artemisinin, the virus in the blood was significantly reduced.”
”At this point, we started the trial of artemisinin for curing lupus erythematosus.”
Hearing this, everyone was dull.
If it is said that the former discovery covers the whole world and is more reasonable to foreign countries, then the latter result is to benefit China.
Throughout China, there are more than one million patients suffering from lupus erythematosus.
Lupus erythematosus is known as an incurable disease. Throughout the medical profession, there is no drug that can completely cure him.
