Sexually dimorphic placental responses to maternal SARS-CoV-2 infection

2021-03-29

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> There is a persistent male bias in the prevalence and severity of COVID-19 disease. Underlying mechanisms accounting for this sex difference remain incompletely understood. Interferon responses have been implicated as a modulator of disease in adults, and play a key role in the placental anti-viral response. Moreover, the interferon response has been shown to alter Fc-receptor expression, and th...
