Sex Differences in Immune Responses to Infectious Diseases: The Role of Genetics, Hormones, and Aging

7 Jun 2025

Abstract excerpt

In recent years, gender medicine has emerged as a field of research analyzing sex-related differences in health and disease. Biological sex, depending on sex chromosome complement, sex steroid hormones, and reproductive organs, has been demonstrated to influence human susceptibility to infections, immune responses against pathogens, the clinical severity of infectious diseases, and responses to the available...
