SeXY chromosomes and the immune system: reflections after a comparative study

14 Jan 2020

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Sex bias in immune function has been contributed in part to a preponderance of immune system-related genes (ISRG) on the X-chromosome. We verified whether ISRG are more abundant on the X chromosome as compared to autosomal chromosomes and reflected on the impact of our findings. METHODS: Consulting freely accessible databases, we performed a comparative study consisting of three complementary...
