Mapping and Validation of the Major Sex-Determining Region in Nile Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus L.) Using RAD Sequencing [PDF]

, 2013
Sex in Oreochromis niloticus (Nile tilapia) is principally determined by an XX/XY locus but other genetic and environmental factors also influence sex ratio.

A model system for study of sex chromosome effects on sexually dimorphic neural and behavioral traits

, 2002
We tested the hypothesis that genes encoded on the sex chromosomes play a direct role in sexual differentiation of brain and behavior. We used mice in which the testis-determining gene (Sry) was moved from the Y chromosome to an autosome (by deletion of ...

Genetic variants (Lhcgr W495X/+) and environmental toxicants (DEHP) synergistically induce DSD by interfering with steroidogenic gene expression

Biology of Sex Differences
Background Emerging evidence suggests that genetic variants and environmental toxicants may synergistically contribute to DSD. To test this hypothesis, we employed Lhcgr W495X/+ (luteinizing hormone/chorionic gonadotropin receptor) male mice subjected to

Examination of the genetic basis for sexual dimorphism in the Aedes aegypti (dengue vector mosquito) pupal brain [PDF]

, 2014
BACKGROUND: Most animal species exhibit sexually dimorphic behaviors, many of which are linked to reproduction. A number of these behaviors, including blood feeding in female mosquitoes, contribute to the global spread of vector-borne illnesses ...

Fertility in differences of sex development patients

Best Practice & Research Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism
Management of differences of sex development (DSD) continues to evolve, with increased attention to fertility. Knowledge gaps remain among providers and patients about fertility potential and options for fertility preservation. It is complicated, requiring individualized assessment. Fertility potential varies by diagnosis, gonadal status and age.

Cystoscopy to investigate the prevalence of prostatic utricle cyst in boys with proximal hypospadias and its implications in medium-term follow-up

Frontiers in Pediatrics
PurposeProstatic utricle cyst (PUC) is known to be associated with hypospadias. We aimed to investigate the prevalence of PUC in children with proximal hypospadias by cystoscopy, and risk of symptom development after hypospadias repair.MethodsWe ...

Abuse experiences of family members, child maltreatment, and the development of sex offending among Incarcerated adolescent males: Differences between adolescent sex offenders and adolescent non-sex offenders

, 2017
Child sexual abuse is considered a risk factor for the development of sexual offending in adolescence. Beyond this, comparisons of the risk factor profiles between adolescent sex offenders (ASOs) and adolescent non-sex offenders (ANSOs) have uncovered ...

Neurogenin 3 Mediates Sex Chromosome Effects on the Generation of Sex Differences in Hypothalamic Neuronal Development

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2014
The organizational action of testosterone during critical periods of development is the cause of numerous sex differences in the brain. However, sex differences in neuritogenesis have been detected in primary neuronal hypothalamic cultures prepared ...

Facial width-to-height ratio relates to alpha status and assertive personality in capuchin monkeys [PDF]

, 2014
Social dominance hierarchies play a pivotal role in shaping the behaviour of many species, and sex differences within these hierarchies often exist. To date, however, few physical markers of dominance have been identified.
