The results show that testosterone and estrogen have opposite effects on a gene nicknamed RORA.
研究结果表明,睾酮素和雌性激素对一种名叫罗莎(RORA)的基因相对立的影响。
But other research has suggested that a RORA deficiency could explain many of the effects seen in autism.
但是,其他的研究已经暗示rora基因水平低可以解释自闭症症状中常见的许多症状。
In neurons, testosterone lowers the ability of cells to express, or turn on, the RORA gene, while estrogen raises it.
在神经元中,睾酮素降低了细胞表现或是打开RORA基因的能力。但是,雌激素却增强了这种能力。
The research does not show that low levels of RORA cause autism, only that they are associated with the condition, Hu said.
研究不是说RORA基因水平低引起自闭症,只是显示这个基因水平低与自闭症是有关系的,教授说。
When a cell has high levels of testosterone, RORA levels run low, which affects every gene that RORA is supposed to turn on.
当一个细胞的睾酮水平较高时,RORA基因水平就低,这就影响到RORA基因应该打开的每一个基因。
RORA is also believed to be help maintain the body's daily circadian rhythm, and people with autism frequently experience sleep disturbances, she said.
同时认为RORA基因有助于维持日常的生理节奏,患有自闭症的人经常睡眠失调,她说。
This means that females may have be protected against autism — even if RORA levels were otherwise low, estrogen can "pick up some of the slack, " Hu said.
这就意味着女性有可能自身预防自闭症------即使RORA基因水平低的话,雌激素“可以调节一下”。教授说。
Thee result was the 'Unsent Project', a collection of printed notes in varying hues, each baring the raw and emotional message, which Rora has also arranged into a stunning collage.
结果便有了“未尝发送的项目“,偌拉把不同色彩打印出来的便签集成一辑,每一张都有饱含情感、原汁原味的信息,偌拉把便签做成一张绚丽夺目的拼贴。
