A third possibility comes from the fact that the gene works by activating a generegulator that controls the immune system as well as hair growth.
第三种可能来自一个事实,即基因运作要通过激活控制免疫系统和头发生长的基因调节器。

So, very crudely, the thing on the wall is the switch DNA, your finger is the regulator, and gene expression is the light turning on or turning off.
因此,大体上可以这么形容,在墙上的东西就是开关DNA,手指是调控器,基因表达就是打开灯或关闭灯。

"This is the first major study that shows how small changes in one master regulatorgene can cause a cascade of other metabolic effects in other genes," said lead author Tim Spector in a statement.
