35、difference between standard and nonstandard, it should be noted, hasU (73) /Uin principle to do with differences between formal and colloquialU (74) /U; standard English has colloquial as well as formal variants.U (75) /U, the standard variety of English is based on the LondonU (76) /Uof English tha

43、cause changes in human cells that might affect the brain, the leader of the research team said.But Darius Leszczynski, who headed the 2-year study and will present findings next week at a conference in Quebec (魁北克), said more research was needed to determine the seriousness of the changes and their
44、impact on the brain or the body.The study at Finlands Radiation and Nuclear Safety Authority found that exposure to radiation from mobile phones can cause increased activity in hundreds of proteins in human cells grown in a laboratory, he said.“We know that there is some biological response. We can
45、detect it with our very sensitive approaches, but we do not know whether it can have any physiological effects on the human brain or human body,“ Leszczynski said.Nonetheless, the study, the initial findings of which were published last month in the scientific journal Differentiation, raises new que
46、stions about whether mobile phone radiation can weaken the brains protective shield against harmful substances.The Study focused on changes in cells that line blood vessels and on whether such changes could weaken the functioning of the blood-brain barrier, which prevents potentially harmful substan
47、ces from entering the brain from the bloodstream, Leszczynski said.The study found that a protein called hsp27 linked to the functioning of the blood-brain barrier showed increased activity due to irradiation and pointed to a possibility that such activity could make the shield more permeable(能透过的), he said.“Increased protein activity might cause cells to shrinknot the blood vessels but the cells themselvesand then tiny gaps could appear between those cells through which some molecules
