【medical-news】"通才"基因与多种学习障碍有关

Generalist genes responsible for a wide range of learning disorders

Published: Thursday, 15-Mar-2007



According to a review in the premier issue of Mind, Brain, and Education, the latest research into learning disabilities suggests that 'generalist' genes are responsible for a wide range of learning disorders.
"Old studies tend to focus on finding the genes responsible for single disorders," says review author Robert Plomin, "but with the new analysis techniques available, new studies are providing evidence that genes can be responsible for a wide range of learning disorders." According to Plomin, these 'generalist' genes can be linked to language and math disorders, and even spatial and memory functions.

Environment does play a role in learning disorders, but more so in determining what type of learning disorder may develop. "Because we now know that environmental factors are 'specialists', these findings have far-reaching implications for education in terms of diagnosis, treatment and prevention of learning disabilities," says Plomin.

Studies on generalist genes could lead to important advances in neurological research. "Once we overcome the remaining obstacles to identifying these genes, they will provide exciting glimpses into general mechanisms at all levels of analysis from genes to brain to behavior." 本人认领此文。如在48小时内未能提交译文,其他战友可自由认领。 http://www.news-medical.net/?id=22612

According to a review in the premier issue of Mind, Brain, and Education, the latest research into learning disabilities suggests that 'generalist' genes are responsible for a wide range of learning disorders.
据《心智、脑和教育》首刊的一篇综述报道,最新的关于学习障碍的研究表明这是由“通才”基因引起的。

"Old studies tend to focus on finding the genes responsible for single disorders," says review author Robert Plomin, "but with the new analysis techniques available, new studies are providing evidence that genes can be responsible for a wide range of learning disorders." According to Plomin, these 'generalist' genes can be linked to language and math disorders, and even spatial and memory functions.
“先前的研究倾向于集中寻找单一障碍的相关基因。”审查作者Robert Plomin说,“但是随着新的分析技术的发展,新的研究为广泛的学习障碍是由基因引起的提供了证据。”根据Plomin的观点,这种“通才”基因与语言和数学的学习障碍有关,甚至还与空间和记忆的功能有关。

"Because we now know that environmental factors are 'specialists', these findings have far-reaching implications for education in terms of diagnosis, treatment and prevention of learning disabilities," says Plomin.
环境对于学习障碍确有重大意义,但更多是在于决定何种类型的学习障碍可能形成。“鉴于我们已经知道环境因素的“专家”作用,这些发现对于教育有着深远影响,从而进一步影响诊断、处理和预防学习能力缺失。” Plomin说。

Studies on generalist genes could lead to important advances in neurological research. "Once we overcome the remaining obstacles to identifying these genes, they will provide exciting glimpses into general mechanisms at all levels of analysis from genes to brain to behavior."
在“通才”基因方面的研究能够导致神经病学研究的极大进步。“一旦我们在辨识这些基因方面克服了当前的障碍, "他们将为分析从基因到大脑行为所有水平的一般机制提供扣人心弦的瞥见。” 中文编译:
