La complejidad del interior de las células parece no tener límites. Y sin embargo, cada día, la comunidad científica logra dar un paso más. Desde que a mediados del siglo XIX se lograra por primera vez aislar el ADN, la Biología Molecular y la Genética no han parado de ofrecer nuevos datos que permiten ir entendiendo los procesos que ocurren en el núcleo de las células y que determinan la vida. Hace décadas que los investigadores fijaron su atención en los daños que sufre el ADN y cómo se las apaña la célula para repararlos.

A team of scientists from the city of Cordoba has studied the effect of testosterone on behavior of the worm Caenorhabditis elegans, with the aim to analyze at the molecular level the interaction between the male hormone and the nervous system. 
Previous research established a correlation between development of autistic behavior traits and level of exposure to testosterone during prenatal development. The research study, entitled “Epigenetic effect of testosterone in the behavior of C. elegans. A clue to explain androgen-dependent autistic traits?” has been published in the journal Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience.
