Transposable element expression with variation in sex chromosome number: insights into a toxic Y effect on human longevity

2023-08-03

Abstract excerpt

<h4> A bstract </h4> Why women live longer than men is still an open question in human biology. Sex chromosomes have been proposed to play a role in the observed sex gap in longevity, and the Y male chromosome has been suspected of having a potential toxic genomic impact on male longevity. It has been hypothesized that in aging individuals, TE repression is diminished, which could lead to detrimental effects (e...
