The X-files in immunity: sex-based differences predispose immune responses.

Nature reviews. Immunology - 1 Sept 2008

Fish Eleanor N

Abstract excerpt

Despite accumulating evidence in support of sex-based differences in innate and adaptive immune responses, in the susceptibility to infectious diseases and in the prevalence of autoimmune diseases, health research and clinical practice do not address these distinctions, and most research studies...
