Degenerated, Undifferentiated, Rearranged, Lost: High Variability of Sex Chromosomes in Geometridae (Lepidoptera) Identified by Sex Chromatin [PDF]
Sex chromatin is a conspicuous body that occurs in polyploid nuclei of most lepidopteran females and consists of numerous copies of the W sex chromosome.

Publisher Summary The term “sex chromatin,― denotes a body in the nuclei of cells, which shows a special relationship to the sex of the organism from which the cell originated. The sex-chromatin body is present in the nucleus only during interphase and disappears during mitosis.

Impact of 3D genome organization, guided by cohesin and CTCF looping, on sex-biased chromatin interactions and gene expression in mouse liver [PDF]
Several thousand sex-differential distal enhancers have been identified in mouse liver; however, their links to sex-biased genes and the impact of any sex-differences in nuclear organization and chromatin interactions are unknown. To address these issues,

Sex Chromatin in New Hampshire Cocks
Sex chromatin (SC) is defined as inactive X chromosome in the female somatic cells, it condensed as heterochromatic at interphase of the nucleus and appears like nuclear satellite projection, and only female cells contain SC in mammals.

Epigenetic remodeling by sex hormone receptors and implications for gender affirming hormone therapy [PDF]
Sex differences in immune system development and response to pathogens has been well documented, with females exhibiting more favorable outcomes for certain infections but a higher incidence of autoimmune disease compared to males. At least some of these

SEX CHROMATIN IN THE AMNION OF THE PIG [PDF]
In the domestic pig, Sus scrofa, sexual dimorphism, as indicated by the presence of the sex chromatin body, is detectable in neurones of the brain and spinal cord (Cantwell, Johnston & Zeller, 1958; Hay & Moore, 1961; Harvey, 1969). Attempts to detect this feature in non-nervous tissue have, with one exception, failed. Hoshino & Toryu (1958) claimed to

Single-nucleus multiomics reveals the gene regulatory networks underlying sex determination of murine primordial germ cells [PDF]
Accurate specification of female and male germ cells during embryonic development is critical for sexual reproduction. Primordial germ cells (PGCs) are the bipotential precursors of mature gametes that commit to an oogenic or spermatogenic fate in ...
