Sexual differentiation of microglia [PDF]
Frontiers in Neuroendocrinology, 2019 Sex plays a role in the incidence and outcome of neurological illnesses, also influencing the response to treatments. Despite sexual differentiation of the brain has been extensively investigated, the study of sex differences in microglia, the brain's resident immune cells, has been largely neglected until recently.

Identification of Crustacean Female Sex Hormone Receptor Involved in Sexual Differentiation of a Hermaphroditic Shrimp [PDF]
Biomolecules, 2023 The neurohormone crustacean female sex hormone (CFSH) contains a highly conserved interleukin-17 (IL-17) domain in the mature peptide. Although CFSH has been demonstrated to stimulate female sexual differentiation in crustaceans, its receptors (CFSHR ...

Intrauterine sexual differentiation: biosyntesis and action of sexual steroid hormones
Brazilian Archives of Biology and Technology, 2015 The objective of this review was to describe sexual differentiation events in mammals, relating them to biosynthesis of sexual steroid hormones and their mechanisms of action. Cholesterol is the precursor of sexual steroid hormone biosynthesis via action

Seminars in Reproductive Medicine, 2000 Sexual differentiation in humans is genetically and hormonally controlled. In response to a signal from a dominant-acting gene on the Y chromosome, primordial cells in the embryonic gonad ridge differentiate into Sertoli cells and affect newly migrated germ cells to differentiate as spermatogonia, thus creating a testis.
