Vocal Emotional Expression in Parkinson’s Disease: Roles of Sex and Emotions
Societies, 2023 Introduction: Parkinson’s disease (PD) commonly causes speech impairments, including difficulties in expressing emotions through voice. Method: The objective of this study was to investigate gendered vocal expressions of fear, anger, sadness, and ...

Polyandry and sex-specific gene expression [PDF]
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2013 Polyandry is widespread in nature, and has important evolutionary consequences for the evolution of sexual dimorphism and sexual conflict. Although many of the phenotypic consequences of polyandry have been elucidated, our understanding of the impacts of polyandry and mating systems on the genome is in its infancy.

Sex Differences in Cardiomyocyte Connexin43 Expression [PDF]
Journal of Cardiovascular Pharmacology, 2011 Decreases in cardiac connexin43 (Cx43) play a critical role in abnormal cell-to-cell communication and have been linked to the resistance of the female heart to arrhythmias. We therefore hypothesized that Cx43 expression would be greater in female cardiomyocytes than in male cardiomyocytes under pathologic conditions.

Microvascular Sex- and Age- Dependent Phosphodiesterase Expression
Frontiers in Aging, 2021 Objective: The cyclic nucleotide second messengers, cAMP and cGMP, are pivotal regulators of vascular functions; their cellular levels are tightly controlled by the cyclic nucleotide hydrolases, phosphodiesterases (PDE).

Balancing sex chromosome expression and satisfying the sexes [PDF]
Fly, 2012 Equalizing sex chromosome expression between the sexes when they have largely differing gene content appears to be necessary, and across species, is accomplished in a variety of ways. Even in birds, where the process is less than complete, a mechanism to reduce the difference in gene dose between the sexes exists. In early development, while the dosage

Lithuanian Neologisms: the Aspect of Sex Expression
Lietuvių Kalba, 2021 The article discusses the nouns with the (potential) seme of sex in “The Database of Lithuanian Neologisms“ in terms of their origin, word formation, semantics and usage.

Differential redox state contributes to sex disparities in the response to influenza virus infection in male and female mice [PDF]
, 2018 Influenza virus replicates intracellularly exploiting several pathways involved in the regulation of host responses. The outcome and the severity of the infection are thus strongly conditioned by multiple host factors, including age, sex, metabolic ...

Timing of maternal exposure and fetal sex determine the effects of low-level chemical mixture exposure on the fetal neuroendocrine system in sheep [PDF]
, 2016 We have shown that continuous maternal exposure to the complex mixture of environmental chemicals (ECs) found in human biosolids (sewage sludge), disrupts mRNA expression of genes crucial for development and long-term regulation of hypothalamo-pituitary ...

A CRISPR-Cas9 sex-ratio distortion system for genetic control. [PDF]
, 2016 Genetic control aims to reduce the ability of insect pest populations to cause harm via the release of modified insects. One strategy is to bias the reproductive sex ratio towards males so that a population decreases in size or is eliminated altogether ...

Sex differences in sex chromosome gene expression in mouse brain [PDF]
Human Molecular Genetics, 2002 A major question is whether genes encoded on the sex chromosomes act directly in non-gonadal tissues to cause sex differences in development or function, or whether all sex differences in somatic tissues are induced by gonadal secretions. As part of this question we asked whether mouse X-Y homologous gene pairs are expressed in brain in a sex-specific ...
