Chapter 69 The Most Enthusiastic Person (Please add to your favorites and read on)

It was almost 11:30, which wasn't early.

At this time, there's not much to eat near Zhongnan Hospital; you'd have to go to the other end of Han Street to find a late-night snack.

As agreed, when the two of them came out of the lab, they didn't need to turn off the lights, as there were still people working diligently inside, and each person's experimental progress was different.

Fang Ziye told Luo Tingzhu that Yuan Weihong had agreed to let Luo Tingzhu help him with his experiments temporarily. Although there would be no great contributions or results, she could learn from him, and such an opportunity should not be missed.

After Luo Tingzhu and Fang Ziye left the laboratory, Luo Tingzhu asked, "Senior Brother Fang, now that you've finished the Western blot, what other experiments do you plan to do?"

Fang Ziye's current experimental progress includes migration, invasion, CCK-8 proliferation, cycle detection, and quantitative analysis of HK2 by Western blotting. In terms of basic experiments, he has already reached a certain level at the molecular enzyme level of HK2.

Of course, this is just the initial stage of the experiment, and there is still much to be done related to it.

"Currently, there are two main directions to explore. One is to see if we can find drugs that affect HK2 and have an effect on tumor growth and invasion. The other is to continue to search for targets of HK2, which is an extension of our research."

"The next step is animal testing. We only plan to conduct two groups: subcutaneous tumors and intraosseous tumors." Fang Ziye wasn't afraid to tell Luo Tingzhu about the future expansion directions.

Even if Luo Tingzhu uses this to apply for subsequent research projects, the preliminary experimental research for these projects was not done by Luo Tingzhu. Therefore, even if Luo Tingzhu relies on Professor Deng Yong, he may not be able to compete with Fang Ziye and Jie Han.

Yuan Weihong's group has a foundation of prior research, and the two individuals have different backgrounds.

Upon hearing this, Luo Tingzhu asked, "Oh, then those must be the experiments and projects that can be carried out later?"

When applying for a project, it's crucial to consider scalability. Currently, Fang Ziye has only reached the molecular level, so there shouldn't be too much room for expansion. Yuan Weihong also took this into account when he applied for this research direction.

It is a vast system that can be further developed in depth.

Since it has been proven that HK2 is useful in giant cell tumor of bone, all factors related to the effect of HK2 can be involved in the control of giant cell tumor of bone. If no one else has done this, or at least has not proven that it is through HK2 that the effect of HK2 on giant cell tumor of bone is achieved, then everything can be done.

While this may not solve the problem of chemotherapy drugs for giant cell tumor of bone, the chemotherapy drugs for every type of tumor are found through such step-by-step exploration and numerous trials and tribulations; it is impossible to achieve this overnight.

"Yes, the car has arrived, Junior Sister Luo."

"You sit in the back seat, I'll sit in the front passenger seat," Fang Ziye said, reaching for the car door.

Luo Tingzhu thought for a moment and then invited, "Senior Brother Fang, why don't you sit with me in the back? I have some questions for you."

Fang Ziye did not refuse.

While in the car, Luo Tingzhu didn't have a convenient time to ask, but after getting off the car, she found a barbecue stall, ordered her food, and then asked about the feasibility of the osteosarcoma-related pathways she was planning to explore.

The research pathway that Luo Tingzhu plans to apply for is the role and influence of mRNA osteosarcoma and PKM-related pathways.

This kind of experiment is actually more in-depth than what Fang Ziye is currently doing about HK2 and giant cell tumor of bone. It is essentially about processing mRNA to see its effect on PKM.

This is similar to dealing with other people's parents and observing the impact on their children. That's the common understanding, but of course, the real principle is definitely not like that.

Fang Ziye said, "PKM is a popular pathway. You need to find a very suitable mRNA, otherwise it will be difficult to make people's eyes light up." "Moreover, osteosarcoma is currently the most popular topic in orthopedic tumors."

"Of course, it can definitely be done. As long as you can find enough literature to support it, then this approach can be pursued."

Currently, research progress on tumor chemotherapy has entered a super plateau period, with no major breakthroughs or achievements for the past forty years.

Researchers all over the world are working hard and exploring, and if they make a breakthrough, they will have no worries about becoming rich and famous overnight.

However, this opportunity is very rare; it's like finding a needle in a haystack.

You do distribution channels, I do distribution channels, everyone's just seeing who's lucky.

Without groundbreaking progress, one can only accumulate basic skills, delve deeper along one's own research path, peel back the layers of pathways and the mysteries of their upstream and downstream components, and make the most comprehensive work on cell lines and pathways, which is also a kind of academic contribution.

Others will also recognize your ability and strength, and you don't necessarily have to directly develop a very mature anti-tumor drug.

To expect to achieve something overnight is like a eunuch's idle chatter—utter nonsense.

"Junior Sister Luo, if you think osteosarcoma is too popular, choosing a less common type of tumor to apply for research funding is also a good option."

"There's no need to squeeze into the most popular avenues," Fang Ziye suggested to Luo Tingzhu, offering her an alternative.

"That's true. Thank you, senior. Everyone in the lab says you're the most helpful person." Luo Tingzhu smiled, neither agreeing nor refusing.

Although she holds a doctorate, she hasn't had enough time to accumulate knowledge and skills. While she graduated early, she also entered the workforce early, so she still needs to further enhance her knowledge base.

Having sufficient research results is a benchmark for demonstrating one's research capabilities...

Fang Ziye didn't reply, thinking to himself, "If it weren't for the profit I could make while doing experiments, I wouldn't be so generous. Actually, helping out with experiments allows me to get some reagents and knowledge points, and that's the real joy."

After the late-night snack, Fang Ziye dropped Luo Tingzhu off at the school gate and then said goodbye. He didn't take her any further towards the dormitory. Once inside the school, there were security guards, so it was relatively safe.

After returning home, Fang Ziye quickly washed up and went to bed. Looking at the tempting amount of knowledge points, which was as high as three digits, Fang Ziye was unsure where to allocate them.

Let's keep it for now, just in case it comes in handy later. As long as we're not in a rush to use it, let's save it up and add some points to a level 4 skill, aiming to reach the standard of the Doctor's training room after his seclusion.

But when Fang Ziye thought about the pie in the sky that Professor Deng Yong was painting, he also had a slight headache.

The Trauma Surgery Training Room 801 is the true standard for graduation, just like the standard for doctoral students. After graduation, there is a very high chance of being admitted to the hospital.

In Yuan Weihong's cohort, the policy was to stay in the hospital after completing the quarantine period. But now it's becoming increasingly strict; to stay in the hospital after completing the quarantine, one must have a certain level of research ability.

Suturing techniques include skin suturing, anatomical dissection of pork during incision, debridement followed by compression and shaping of pork, muscle suturing, osteotomy, manual reduction of fractures, bone defect repair techniques, bone reshaping, and bone flap design...

Is Professor Deng Yong's promise of early graduation just a pipe dream?
