46,XX Sex Reversal

Archives of Medical Research, 2001
In humans, sexual differentiation is directed by SRY, a master regulatory gene located at the Y chromosome. This gene initiates the male pathway or represses the female pathway by regulating the transcription of downstream genes; however, the precise mechanisms by which SRY acts are largely unknown. Moreover, several genes have recently been implicated

The Molecular Genetics of Sex Determination and Sex Reversal in Mammals

Seminars in Reproductive Medicine, 2012
The process of sex determination in mammals normally unfolds in three distinct stages: (1) establishment of chromosomal sex at fertilization (XX or XY); (2) commitment to the appropriate pathway of gonadal differentiation with respect to chromosomal sex, through the action (or absence) of the Y chromosome gene SRY; and (3) correct development of ...

Sex reversal in a freshwater sponge

Journal of Experimental Zoology, 1976
AbstractSpongilla lacustris exhibits a type of alternative hermaphroditism, new to the phylum, in which a sponge may be exclusively male or female during the period of sexual reproduction one year and the opposite sex the next year. This form of sexuality may facilitate larva production and thus dispersal following colonization of a new habitat ...

Genetics of XY sex reversal

Journal of Endocrinology, 1995
Introduction In mammals, sex is determined by the presence or absence of the Y chromosome. The first event in sexual differentiation is the differentiation of the bipotential gonad into testes or ovaries. All subsequent sexual differentiation is under hormonal control of the testes or ovaries. The genetic entity

Natural sex reversal in vertebrates

Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. B, Biological Sciences, 1970
Abstract The phenomenon of sex reversal and hermaphroditism in vertebrates has been observed since early human history dating back to Aristotle, who also recorded that the , a sea-bass, reproduced without copulation. Despite their common occurrence and early discoveries, hermaphroditic animals, with or without sex reversal, aroused ...
