|
| To explain what microRNAs are and their important role in cancer, |

|
| As you might know, proteins are large biological molecules that perform different functions within our body, like catalyzing metabolic reactions or responding to stimuli or replicating DNA, but before a protein is expressed or produced, relevant parts of its genetic code present in the DNA are copied into the messenger RNA, so this messenger RNA |
众所周知 蛋白质是一种大型生物分子 在我们身体内承担不同功能 例如,促进新陈代谢反应 对外部刺激发生反应 或是进行 DNA 复制 但是,在蛋白质表达或产出之前 存在于 DNA 中的 相关遗传密码 被复制到传讯息的核糖核酸 (RNA) 中 这种传讯息的核糖核酸 |

|
| Unlike DNA, which is mainly fixed, microRNAs can vary depending on internal and environmental conditions at any given time, telling us which genes are actively expressed at that particular moment. |

|
biomarker:n.生物标志物;生物标记;生物指标; altered:adj.改变了的:v.(使)改变,更改,改动:(alter的过去分词和过去式)

另一个重要问题是 没有任何两种癌症是相同的 但在微 RNAs 层面上是可以进行分类的 |
|
cancers:n.癌; (Cancers是cancer的复数)
|
| Several scientific studies have shown that abnormal microRNA expression levels varies and creates a unique , specific pattern for each type of cancer, even at the early stages, reflecting the progression of the disease, and whether it's responding to medication or in remission , making microRNAs a perfect, highly sensitive biomarker. |
若干科学研究表明 异常微 RNAs 的表达 会产生不同而各自独特的类型 对应各种不同类型的癌症 即使在癌症最初阶段 微 RNAs 也能反应出病症的发展过程 以及药物治疗是否有效 或是否处于病症缓解中 这使得微 RNAs 成为一个极其有效 非常灵敏的生物标记 |

|
sequences:n.[数][计]序列,顺序;继起的事(sequence的复数形式); nucleotides:n.核甘酸;核甘酸基(nucleotide的复数形式);
|
| And also, all microRNAs are very similar to each other, with just tiny differences. |
