To human living cells as the core
computer contemporary people’s daily lives often use to the electronic device, it is almost all over each family. But have you seen a biocomputer that is only cell-sized and capable of handling large amounts of information like an electronic computer? Recently, scientists have created biological computers consisting of only 9 human living cells. Don’t underestimate these 9 cells, they are the core of this bio-computer.
Some scientists have developed a simple biological computer transformed from two kidney cells. Because the cell type is the same, it can only react to the presence or absence of a certain substance. The type and concentration of the substance in the human body can only be “heart”. There is not enough energy.”
This bio-computer consisting of 9 cells is different. Although it is about the size of a simple bio-computer transformed into a kidney cell, its performance is much better than its power, such as its powerful information processing capabilities.
The nine cells of this bio-computer are different human living cells. It brings together the ability of these nine cells to respond to substances, so it can handle many kinds of substances, and can also feel small changes in these substances. Sensitive. Every cell can receive information, process information and output information, and can also transfer information to each other, which reminds people of the information processing process of the computer.
”Steal the division” digital computer
in a digital computer, the encoded information through input devices such as a keyboard or the like, into the computer, information flows in the circuit, the arrival host, the host will perform information processing, the information processed by the circuit will When we reach the output device such as the display, we will see the words, numbers and other outputs on the display.
The biological computer has no circuit, and there is no input device such as a keyboard. The special protein and the like in the human body can be directly input into the biological computer. They send information such as their own type and concentration directly to the “host” cells, which process the cells and release the corresponding pheromones. The pheromones are passed directly to the next cell, and then the other cells are processed again. and many more.
An example of the presence or absence of iodine content in the human body and the presence or absence of thyroid hormone. Iodine is an important raw material for the synthesis of thyroid hormone. In general, iodine is high and thyroid hormone is synthesized much more.
When the concentration of iodine is high, cells that process iodine release a “high concentration of iodine” pheromone, which is then passed to cells that process thyroid hormone. If the cell receives a “high concentration of iodine” pheromone and receives information that the concentration of thyroid hormone has not changed, the cell will release a pheromone after processing the two inputs. This pheromone informs the human body: “You The body has a problem!”; If you receive a high iodine content, and receive information that the thyroid hormone is also increasing, this cell will also release a pheromone, but this pheromone will be “silent” and will not remind us.
Although there are many differences between biological computers and digital computers, both follow the input-processing-output program, except that the biological computer inputs the biological material, the processor is the cell, and the output is the pheromone. In addition, such a computer can only be implanted in the human body and cannot be used alone outside the human body.
Before the illness, “alarm”
this biological computer capable of handling different chemical inputs not only caused great repercussions in the scientific community, but also caused a storm in the medical community. Medical experts believe that such a biological computer is needed to prevent human diseases!
They believe that in the early stages of the disease, a certain chemical substance will start to change, but this change is small, and the human body is not aware of this tiny “crisis” at that time. Therefore, when people feel that they are sick, they may already be in the advanced stage of the disease, which is extremely unfavorable for controlling the disease.
But if the biocomputer is implanted in the human body, it can detect and deal with these small changes, because after the “layer treatment” of the cells, the final diagnosis is often more accurate. The results are then compared to existing disease records, and if the results match the disease records, an alert is issued to alert people to the potential of the disease.
In addition to predicting disease, it can also help treat diseases. The input is defined as an indicator of a disease. When the cell receives this indicator input, the cell releases a therapeutic chemical that acts on the cell, bacteria, or virus that causes the disease.
If you really install a lot of such bio-computers in your body, when you wake up every morning, we can check the physical status of your evenings on the smart screen connected to them, like viewing emails, and you may be able to suffer from yourself. Which diseases are predicted?
Some people think that implanting a biological computer in the human body will destroy the body’s own cellular system. But the human body is already a complicated computer. The cells in the body are constantly executing DNA instructions. What is the difference between implanting this biological computer with human living cells as the core and installing a tiny software?
