So it was thanks to their plentiful telomerase that our pond scum critters never got old.

因此， 正是由于它们丰富端粒酶，我们池塘浮渣生物变老。

But when we analyze the cells chemically we find something very interesting, a chemical in them, an enzyme called telomerase.

但是当我们对细胞进化学分析时， 我们发现了一些非常有趣西，它们中一种化学物质， 一种叫做端粒酶酶。

And when we removed our pond scum's telomerase, their telomeres ran down and they died.

当我们去除池塘浮渣端粒酶时，它们端粒就流失并死亡。

And in the future we may have virtually immortal nerve cells and immortal skin cells of whatever because of these chemical, telomerase can keep the telomere on the ends of Chromosomes from getting any shorter.

并且在未来，由于这些化学物质，端粒酶可以防止染色体末端端粒变短，因此我们可能拥有几乎朽神经细胞和朽皮肤细胞。
