Liu , meanwhile , speculates that ferroelectricity switching might alter the way cholesterol , sugars or fats stick to and harden blood vessels .

刘同时推测说铁电转换也许会改变胆固醇、糖还有油脂粘附并硬化血管的途径。

Or perhaps the property could sense blood temperature ( because ferroelectricity is temperature-sensitive ) , or , as in seashells , disperse mechanical energy and prevent damage .

或者也许用来检测血液温度（因为铁电性是热敏的），或者，就像海贝一样，用来化解机械能量而避免伤害的。

The tip detected the tell-tale signal associated with ferroelectricity , and what is more , they found that they could switch this polarization with an electric field .

这个针头用于探测和铁电性应有关的指示信号，他们还发现通过电场可以改变其极性。

If liu is right to suspect that ferroelectricity can influence the way blood vessels take up fats , sugars or lipids , then switching it with an applied electric field might help to combat cardiovascular conditions that result from build-up , such as thrombosis and atherosclerosis .

如果刘对铁电性可以影响血管吸附油脂、糖分或者脂肪的进程这样的判断是正确的话，那么把它置于一个合适的磁场之下，也许这样就能能对抗一些由机体垃圾造成的疾病，比如血栓还有动脉粥样硬化。

But it is possible that ferroelectricity could be just a side-effect of some other adaptive function of the tissue a result of the way the molecules just happen to be arranged , which , if it does not interfere with other functions , will go unnoticed by evolution .

但是也有这种可能，铁电性也可能只是某些组织自适应功能的副产物也许是上天无心插柳，对这些分子做出了这样的安排，只要不影响其它功能，它就被进化忽略了。
