    The info here is too sketchy to determine if the aberration of misregulation was a function of diet or chemicals (natural or induced by the likes of Monsanto) measured in parts per trillion, or any other reason.

      The expression of each of the 30,000 genes of maize or the over 22,000 genes of humans is dependent onregulatory regions in the ADN, on the effect of external factors such as microRNA, proteins or epigenetic factors. The insertion of a transgen on a plant planned to express a useful trait in the right place in the organism is a feat of genetic engineering. Detailed studiesand biosafety evaluations and monitoring are conducted in order to insure that a single nitroduced transgenie is not subject  to the many "natural errors" which do take place on thousands of natural genes.... and the evidence is that it has been successful.
