The multicopy gene Sly represses the sex chromosomes in the male mouse germline after meiosis. [PDF]
PLoS Biology, 2009 Studies of mice with Y chromosome long arm deficiencies suggest that the male-specific region (MSYq) encodes information required for sperm differentiation and postmeiotic sex chromatin repression (PSCR).

The epigenome of evolving Drosophila neo-sex chromosomes: dosage compensation and heterochromatin formation. [PDF]
PLoS Biology, 2013 Sex chromosomes originated from autosomes but have evolved a highly specialized chromatin structure. Drosophila Y chromosomes are composed entirely of silent heterochromatin, while male X chromosomes have highly accessible chromatin and are ...

3D chromatin maps of a brown alga reveal U/V sex chromosome spatial organization [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsNuclear three dimensional (3D) folding of chromatin structure has been linked to gene expression regulation and correct developmental programs, but little is known about the 3D architecture of sex chromosomes within the nucleus, and how that impacts ...

Single-nucleus multiomics reveals the gene regulatory networks underlying sex determination of murine primordial germ cells [PDF]
eLifeAccurate 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 ...

A ROLE FOR CELLULAR IMMUNITY IN EARLY POSTPARTUM PERIOD
Медицинская иммунология, 2021 The functioning of the secretory organs is closely related to the activity of the immune system. As is well known, this participation is manifested in the fact that at certain stages of activity, the lymphoid cells migrating to the organ can be involved ...

Correlation between Sex Chromatin and Female Breast Tumour in Paraffin Sections, Buccal Smears and Peripheral Blood Films [PDF]
Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2014 Introduction: Sex chromatin is a plano-convex to triangular DNA mass measuring approximately 1µm in size and lying adjacent to the inner side of nuclear membrane in the somatic cells of the females.
