Gene Expression in Peripheral Immune Cells following Cardioembolic Stroke Is Sexually Dimorphic
18 Jul 2014
Abstract excerpt
AIMS: Epidemiological studies suggest that sex has a role in the pathogenesis of cardioembolic stroke. Since stroke is a vascular disease, identifying sexually dimorphic gene expression changes in blood leukocytes can inform on sex-specific risk factors, response and outcome biology. We aimed to examine the sexually dimorphic immune response following cardioembolic stroke by studying the differential gene...
