　　Don’t scratch that itch!

　　Got an itch(痒)?1.　 Scratching an itch can make it worse and now scientists know why.Researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St.Louis have discovered that scratching causes the brain to produce a chemical called serotonin(血清素),which makes the itching more intense(强烈的). 

　　Scientists have long known that scratching causes a mild sensation(感知) of pain in your skin.2.　 Yet pain signals that travel to your brain relieve the itching only temporarily.The problem,says researcher Zhou-Feng Chen,is that when the brain receives those pain signals,it produces serotonin to help control the pain.When serotonin travels along the spinal cord(脊髓),it can“jump tracks,”moving from pain-sensing nerve cells to those that influence itch intensity.3.
