Kang Zhuo was very interested in laziness, and asked Quan Huachen a lot of questions about it. From this, he knew that laziness was born to Quan Huachen's golden retriever in country D, and he gave it to Quan Huachen. The reason why it is called "lazy" is because it is too lively and active.

Once Zhou Yuan took it out for a walk, ran around lazily and excitedly, Zhou Yuan couldn't hold it, and even fell down, causing a bone fracture.

Quan Huachen hopes that the name "lazy" will seal its wild and unruly heart, and stop being so noisy.

It is precisely because Zhou Yuan fell while walking the dog that Quan Huachen took the dog with him when he returned to China, so as not to cause trouble for Zhou Yuan.

It's been almost 10 minutes since I ate a meal, and I spent 8 minutes talking about dogs. Quan Huachen was not happy, so he just changed the subject: "Have you been to the laboratory recently?"

Kang Zhuo's eyes lit up, and he really put aside the matter of the dog: "Is it the equipment you donated to us, uncle? It's so easy to use! Now it only takes less than 20 minutes to test the matching degree of pheromone target cells and ligand signaling molecules." ! So the one who cooperates with our laboratory is Quanhe?"

Quan Huachen smiled: "Yeah, did you just find out today? We signed the contract a week ago."

Kang Zhuo chuckled twice: "I didn't pay much attention to it before."

"What's your plan in the future? Do you want to do research on glandular tumors with Liu Ming?"

"What I want to do now is research on inhibitors."

Quan Huachen looked doubtful: "Which type?"

"Omega estrus inhibitor."

Now the inhibitor products on the market are quite mature, whether it is for omega or alpha, and there are many kinds of inhibitors for omega estrus, including short-acting and long-acting, injection type, oral type, external spray type ...

The Quan family sells this type of drug, and no one knows better than Quan Huachen that the market for this type of drug has long been saturated, and further improvement is nothing more than improving the user experience of omega, reducing the side effects of the drug, and there will be no big splashes.

To put it bluntly, Quan Huachen is not very optimistic about Kang Zhuo's research direction, but he doesn't want to hurt Kang Zhuo, he just asks: "Where do you want to start?"

"It's not the kind currently on the market. The main components of current omega inhibitors are C and Y hormones. Excessive intake of these two hormones will destroy the circulation of the hypothalamus-pituitary axis and inhibit estrus hormone, that is, forcibly Suppress the state of the glands to the state before and after estrus.

"However, the side effects of such inhibitors are actually very large. Let alone the risk of endocrine disorders or glandular tumors. Long-term use of such inhibitors will generate antibodies in the body. Many omega cannot find alpha that can be labeled after the age of 30. , Inhibitors will gradually become ineffective against them..."

As soon as he talked about his research direction, Kang Zhuo became excited. He looked around eagerly. Quan Huachen asked him what he was looking for. Kang Zhuo said, "Pen and paper."

Quan Huachen got up and stretched his long legs, found a pen and sticky notes from under the coffee table in the living room and handed them to Kang Zhuo. Kang Zhuo directly moved his chair to Quan Huachen's side, and then drew the molecular formula for him.

"What I'm working on is another inhibitor, a pheromone receptor binder that competes with alpha pheromone ligand signaling molecules."

Kang Zhuo was afraid that Quan Huachen would not understand, so he explained: "There is such a kind of cell in the omega gland that has not been marked. You can imagine it as a circle with a hole missing. The incompleteness engraved into the gene will be uncomfortable, so the omega will go through painful heat until the appropriate alpha ligand molecule fills up the gap, but if it only needs to fill up the gap, then there are other ways, For example, the pheromone receptor binding agent I just mentioned."

"The hormone receptors in omega glands originally need to accept alpha ligand molecules. If we use receptor binding agents to simulate this binding, it will relieve the discomfort symptoms of omega estrus. This inhibitor has almost no side effects."

Kang Zhuo's eyes are shining, they stare at Quan Huachen, like the stars in the night, the fluorescent lights in the field, and the eternal flame.

Quan Huachen admired it quietly, and reminded him at the right time: "This theory was proposed more than ten years ago."

Kang Zhuo's originally high interest weakened slightly: "Well, I know."

This pheromone receptor binding agent is like a kind of omnipotent alpha pheromone that can adapt to any omega. It can be compared to making an artificial blood that can transfuse blood of any blood type, which is still difficult to achieve based on the current research level.

"But if it can be realized, it will not only solve the problem of inhibitors, but also treat many glandular diseases, such as stress disorder."

Stress disorder is a common glandular disease of omega, which is a bit similar to allergies, except that stress disorder is that omega is allergic to alpha pheromone. Some patients with severe stress disorder must be isolated in the ward for life, otherwise the skin will be damaged. fester or even suffocate.

The current treatment drugs for stress disorder contain a large amount of hormones, which have great side effects on the patient's body. Therefore, if a pheromone receptor binding agent can be produced, it will be a major advancement in the history of medicine.

"And because this binding agent can produce competitive binding with alpha pheromone, it can also effectively avoid involuntary marking of omega..."

Kang Zhuo regained consciousness from the beautiful vision of the future, and found that the food on the table was completely cold, and he didn't know when he sat next to Quan Huachen, the shoulders of the two were close together, and he dared to draw a ghost A childish molecular formula was handed to him.

Shame overwhelmed Kang Zhuo, and he felt hot on his face: "Sorry Uncle, I... I'm a little bit over the top, isn't it boring?"

Quan Huachen looked at him with a half-smile: "How come, I like to hear what you say, it's very interesting, it allows me to see the future of the biological world."

"Really?" Kang Zhuo still felt that he was getting carried away just now, he tore off the sticky note full of molecular formulas and held it in his hand, "Dongfan always said that I was whimsical, and so many big cows in the biological world couldn't do it." How could the things that come out be made by me, why don't you look away and enjoy yourself in time..."

"But to you, isn't doing research just to have fun in time?" Quan Huachen became serious, "Everyone's hobbies and happiness are different. For Yin Dongfan, eating, drinking and having fun all day is called happiness, but I guess you don't like that kind of life?"

Kang Zhuo nodded, his eyes still blank: "For me, doing research is very happy, but the equation can't always be balanced, the experimental data always has errors, and it still feels very painful when I can't make a result and stop moving forward. "

"Happiness and pain, beauty and ugliness, good and evil, these are all things that need to be compared to reflect. If you have never tasted bitterness, how do you know that the candy you will eat in the future is sweet?"

Quan Huachen pulled out the small molecular paper ball from Kang Zhuo's palm, unfolded it and spread it on the table.

"Don't doubt what you are doing. You see, everything you are doing now is meaningful. Hesitation and stagnation are just the only way to success. Your research can help many people, even if your name cannot appear in the future In a biology textbook, every word in the book will be a testament to the unremitting efforts of you and thousands of anonymous researchers.

Somewhere in my heart suddenly lit up.

Kang Zhuo stared blankly at Quan Huachen, countless fragments of molecular formulas were overwhelming in his head, and then they quickly gathered together, turning into Quan Huachen's appearance.

Many years later, Kang Zhuo could no longer remember how they finished the meal that night, nor when he went home, but Quan Huachen's comforting words were always kept deep in his brain. He never felt unable to continue because of the failure of the experiment.

But soon, another problem that troubled Kang Zhuo arose.

He wanted to return to the intimate relationship with Quan Huachen when he was a child, what should he do?

Quan Huachen found it interesting to see his blank look, reached out and rubbed the small mole on his chin, and said with a smile: "I'll go and heat up the food, you sit here and wait."
