After being fired, I became the light of medicine

Chapter 99 Official announcement of liver cell regeneration activator (first order required!)

Liu Haoran was stunned for a moment, and also realized Zhang Yang's extraordinaryness, so he hurriedly led a group of people to bed No. 15.

"Dad, the doctor is here to see you."

After he finished speaking, Zhang Yang quietly looked at Liu Wenjun lying on the hospital bed, and his originally extremely shocked emotions suddenly became unusually calm.

It only took a second.
He has confirmed that the 52-year-old man in front of him is the 1984-year-old boy who brought him tea and asked him to drink it in the simulator in 12 - Liu Wenjun!

Although he is skinny, one can still vaguely recognize the appearance of the twelve-year-old boy at first glance!

But after forty years, the young man has now lost his spirit due to illness and is constantly hovering on the brink of death.

Zhang Yang just watched quietly.

Gradually, the twelve-year-old boy in his memory and the fifty-two-year-old old man in front of him began to overlap. At this moment, he seemed to have traveled through forty years and witnessed a twelve-year-old boy become a fifty-two-year-old old man.

Witnessed the short life of an ordinary person!
Suddenly, for the first time, he truly had a deeper understanding of "the fate of a generation."

At this moment, Liu Wenjun, who was lying on the hospital bed, also noticed that there were people surrounding the bed. He looked at Director Chen Wen with a puzzled look, then at Zhang Yang, and finally at his son Liu Haoran.

"Haoran, have you completed the discharge procedures? Let's go back once we're done."

"You don't have to force the doctors. To be honest, I don't want to travel all the way to Chengdu. I have already prepared myself for my illness."

"That's it, go home and stop making trouble."

Stop struggling...

Zhang Yang felt a little sad after hearing this. In a trance, Liu Wenjun in front of him seemed to have turned into a twelve-year-old boy. That familiar voice seemed to ring in his ears again:

"Uncle doctor, you have worked hard. Please have some tea."

"Uncle... My name is Liu Wenjun. I'm in fifth grade this year and I'm twelve years old! I'm here to have my blood drawn!"

The next second, Zhang Yang squatted down suddenly and held Liu Wenjun's hand tightly:

"Liu Wenjun, don't give up!"

"I'm Zhang Yang from Qingshan Pharmaceutical. I can tell you for sure that we have found an effective liver cell activator. We have hope of reversing liver cirrhosis!"

"I hope you hold on, don't give up, don't give up!"

Liu Wenjun looked up at Zhang Yang in a daze.

After a long while, he slowly said:
"Are you Zhang Yang, the 'role model of the times' who developed the drug that can cure hepatitis B?"

Zhang Yang nodded heavily.

A smile suddenly appeared on Liu Wenjun's face, and even a glimmer of light seemed to flash in his cloudy eyes.

"I have read about your deeds in text messages. You are truly great."

As he spoke, he tried hard to prop up his body and sit up.

"If someone else told me there was still hope, I wouldn't believe it, but if you told me, I'm willing to believe it!"

"I believe in you, I will try my best to live!"

Liu Haoran, who was standing by, couldn't stop crying.

As a son, he knew that his father had been tortured by illness and had long lost the will to live.

In the "decompensated" stage of liver cirrhosis, ascites and gastrointestinal bleeding occur frequently. Repeated abdominal drainage and endoscopic hemostasis are simply a life worse than death.

If he hadn't been holding on to his last breath, he would have passed away long ago.

At this moment, Zhang Yang patted Liu Wenjun's hand heavily and slowly stood up:
"Director Chen, all medical expenses for this patient will be borne by our Qingshan Pharmaceutical Company. You don't have to worry about the treatment costs."

"Uh...ok!"

Chen Wen was surprised why Zhang Yang suddenly took such good care of a strange patient, but at this moment he could no longer care about it.

All his attention was focused on what Zhang Yang had just said, that an effective liver cell activator had been found.

After a slight hesitation, he still spoke:

"Mr. Zhang, is it true that you just said that you have found an effective liver cell activator?"

Zhang Yang nodded solemnly.

Ever since he saw Liu Wenjun being tortured beyond recognition by cirrhosis of the liver, he had decided to immediately make public the research progress of the "liver cell regeneration activator".

There is no need to hide it. We have just developed the influential "Afovir", and it is only natural to announce the "hepatocyte regeneration activator" which has a high pathological relevance.

and,

The most important thing is that he saw hope in Liu Wenjun's eyes just now, a hope that was rekindled. He believed that if the news of the "liver cell regeneration activator" was announced to the public, it would undoubtedly bring hope of life to countless liver cirrhosis patients across the country!
Sometimes, all you need to survive is a glimmer of hope!
……

As Zhang Yang told Chen Wen about the research and development progress of the "hepatocyte regeneration activator", the original clinical plan for using "Abrocitinib" in cirrhosis was also put on hold.

Chen Wen needs to call together the doctors in the department to discuss again whether it is necessary to continue using "Ekofovir" in patients with cirrhosis.

the other side,
After Zhang Yang returned to Qingshan Pharmaceutical from the Third People's Hospital, he immediately instructed Wei Tian to submit an application for Phase I clinical trials for the "liver cell regeneration activator" that had already completed animal experiments.

At the same time, Tsingshan Pharmaceutical’s official website proactively announced to the outside world for the first time the latest scientific research progress on “liver cell regeneration activator”!
As soon as the official news was released online, it was immediately reprinted by a large number of media outlets, sparking heated discussions.

“Holy crap, have we discovered an active substance that can promote liver cell regeneration, potentially reversing liver cirrhosis or even controlling the development of early liver cancer?!

Do you think I should believe this news or not?! Is this something that our domestic pharmaceutical companies can discover? "

"...I believe it! If it was any other domestic agency that released the news, I definitely wouldn't believe it, but this is Qingshan Pharmaceutical! This is the company that developed 'Acofenprofovir' and is known as 'serving the country and the people' and a model of the times! I believe it!"

"I believe it too. I have no reason to doubt that Qingshan Pharmaceutical would release false news at such a high point. This would not benefit them at all!"

"That's right. I can only say that Qingshan Pharmaceutical is too strong, so strong that it's terrifying! If there were more pharmaceutical companies like this in our country, the health of our people would really be guaranteed!"

"Don't get too excited too soon. Qingshan Pharmaceutical has only announced that it has discovered an effective activator. Whether it will be successful or whether it can develop a drug will probably take a long time..."

"That's enough! This is hope for tens of millions of patients with liver cirrhosis, the only hope!"

In addition to heated discussions on the Internet and in patient groups, liver disease doctors across the country were also shocked by the news.

You should know that currently no medical institution at home or abroad has any particularly effective means of treating cirrhosis of the liver.

What kind of disease is cirrhosis?
Simply put, cirrhosis is pathological changes in the liver.

Hepatitis B virus, fatty liver and alcohol can all cause persistent inflammation of the liver. This inflammation can lead to repeated necrosis of liver cells, which then regenerate and die again.

Over time, the regenerated liver cells will develop a protective mechanism under the reminder of the immune system, and will no longer continue to regenerate but will become non-regenerative hardened nodules.

As more and more hardened nodules appear, liver cirrhosis develops.

At this time, the liver's detoxification function is functionally weakened because a large number of normal liver cells turn into sclerotic nodules.

This is also a manifestation of compensatory cirrhosis.

As more sclerotic nodules continue to appear in the liver, the liver will enlarge, and the veins inside the liver will be squeezed to form venous hypertension, which will cause gastrointestinal bleeding.

and so.

On the one hand, cirrhosis can cause the liver's detoxification function to decline, resulting in functional decline of the human body.

on the other hand,

Cirrhosis can also cause blood vessel rupture due to persistent high pressure in the hepatic vein and portal vein, leading to gastrointestinal bleeding. This is also the most common cause of death from cirrhosis - gastrointestinal bleeding.

and so.

The current global treatment methods for cirrhosis are based on the above pathology.

The first is drug treatment.

This method is mainly used for cirrhosis caused by hepatitis B virus. It mainly involves taking antiviral drugs to control the hepatitis B virus, while taking drugs such as "compound glycyrrhizin", "polyene phosphatidylcholine", and "silymarin" for liver protection treatment.

Of course, this is still slightly effective for early-stage cirrhosis, but once it enters the decompensation stage, drug treatment is almost useless.

The second is interventional treatment.

Interventional therapy can be understood as "minimally invasive surgical treatment". It is performed under the full monitoring and guidance of radiology imaging equipment, and mainly reaches the local lesion through extremely small incisions.

Because it does not cause major trauma and is accurate and efficient, it has become the preferred treatment method for various diseases.

The interventional treatment of the liver department is mainly to solve the problem of gastrointestinal bleeding caused by the liver. Generally, a stent is placed between the hepatic vein and the portal vein through interventional treatment to reduce venous hypertension.

That’s right, a stent is placed in a vein with a diameter of several millimeters to expand blood flow and prevent bleeding.

The third and final option is liver transplantation.

However, whether it is drug treatment, interventional treatment, or liver transplantation, they can only relieve the symptoms of cirrhosis and cannot reverse or even stop the progression of the disease.

What about the “liver cell regeneration activator” announced by Tsingshan Pharmaceutical?

It almost solves the problem of liver cirrhosis from the root. It is conceivable that once such a drug really appears,

Once the reversal effect is good,

Not only will the problem of cirrhosis of the liver be solved, but even all human liver diseases can be greatly alleviated!
It is no exaggeration to say that this substance can absolutely change any existing medical treatment options for liver disease!

Its contribution to mankind is even no less than penicillin!
