Placental contribution to the origins of sexual dimorphism in health and diseases: sex chromosomes and epigenetics

21 Mar 2013

Abstract excerpt

Sex differences occur in most non-communicable diseases, including metabolic diseases, hypertension, cardiovascular disease, psychiatric and neurological disorders and cancer. In many cases, the susceptibility to these diseases begins early in development. The observed differences between the sexes may result from genetic and hormonal differences and from differences in responses to and interactions with...
