It's used to make a concoction called Limulus amebocyte lysate or LAL.

它用于制作一种名为鲎变裂解物或 LAL 的混合物。

But horseshoe crab amebocytes are exceptionally sensitive to bacterial endotoxins.

然而，帝王蟹的变对菌内毒素极为敏感。

This is the reason big complex organisms like us are multicellular instead of 6-foot-tall single-celled amoeba blobs.

这就为什么像我们这样的大型复杂生物多的，而不高达6英尺的单变虫团块。

When your brain gets sloshed and squished, twisting forces happen down on the smallest level, deforming and tearing nerve cells, and damaged neurons can't don't goodly communicate good.

当你的大脑和挤压时，扭曲的力量会在最小程度上发生，使神经变和撕裂，受损的神经元不能很好地传输信息。

Now, the sudden gush of blood through the collateral vessel stretches its walls and deforms the endothelial cells, which stimulates the production of growth factors like the vascular endothelial growth factor, or VEGF, from the vessel wall.

现在，一股血流突然涌入侧支血管，牵拉血管壁使内皮变，刺激血管壁产生生长因子，如血管内皮生长因子（VEGF）。

Today, some scientists believe that pressure phosphenes are indeed the result of distortion— that rubbing or poking your eyes physically stretches neurons, bending the photoreceptors out of shape and causing them to fire.

今天，一些科学家认为压力磷光确实由扭曲造成的——揉眼或戳眼会物理上拉伸神经元，使感光变并引发它们的活。
