科普專欄–薯不揀單 - 三十秒科學–人之初、性本善？

人之初，性本善。這句說話在現今科學上究竟站不站著腳呢?594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjQLnQxAWHo

(圖2)我們腦部有一隻蛋白酶名為Monoamine oxidase A (MAOA)，它的功用是分解多巴胺(Dopamine)及血清素(Serotonin)，防止這些物質過量聚集在腦部，避免神經線因這些物質過量聚集而影響正常運作。594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1dGjXWdOJI

另一方面來看，若MAOA蛋白酶過量產生在大腦裡頭的話，人們便會因血清素過低而陷入抑鬱症狀，因此早期亦有抗抑鬱藥物的設計是抑制MAOA的運作，盡量減少血清素的分解。594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvRhFCTDXeR

(圖3)研究發現，無論人類、老鼠及馬騮，若MAOA基因出現先天性的變異，因而導致腦部的MAOA蛋白酶數量偏少的話，腦部相關的神經物質過量類累積，導致暴力舉動及情緒激動等負面傾向的出現，醫學界命名此疾病為Brunner syndrome，病人較大傾向會犯下縱火、暴力及性罪行。594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwoAOpxn1ec

而基於這MAOA的基因是位於X染色體裡，男性(只有一條X染色體)出現此病的機率會高於女性(擁有兩條X染色體)，這是因為兩條X染色體同時出現變異的機率比一條X染色體出現變異較低。594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLu2HSqpyoN

雖則後天教育對個人發展有著極為深厚的影響，但在先天性MAOA基因變異的前提下，有一部份人一出生便已經不是性本善了。594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYnUnQD65Pb
