In animals, gender is determined by the number and type of sex chromosome. For example, human females have two X chromosomes, and males have one X and one Y chromosome, whereas C.elegans with one X chromosome is a male, and the one with two X chromosomes is a hermaphrodite.
In addition to sexual development, the X chromosome has genes involved in autosomal functions such as brain development and the immune system. Therefore, males and females with  distinct numbers of X chromosomes will...

Lymphoid Cells and Tissues01:18

Lymphoid Cells and Tissues

1.1K
Lymphoid cells and tissues are integral to the immune system, which is crucial in maintaining our body's defense against harmful pathogens. They form the building blocks of lymphoid organs, which include the spleen, thymus, and lymph nodes.
Lymphoid cells consist of various types of immune system cells. These include B and T lymphocytes, which are responsible for producing antibodies and killing infected cells, respectively. Dendritic cells act as messengers between the innate and adaptive...

Special Features of Adaptive Immunity01:20

Special Features of Adaptive Immunity

810
The adaptive immune system, a crucial component of the overall immune response, offers a highly specialized defense against pathogens. It involves specific cell types and features, enabling it to combat infections effectively and efficiently.
The primary cell types involved in adaptive immunity are T cells and B cells. Each type has a unique role in defending the body against pathogens. T cells are responsible for cell-mediated immunity. They identify and eliminate infected cells directly,...

X and Y Chromosomes

25.9K
Among mammals, the gender of an organism is determined by the sex chromosomes. Humans have two sex chromosomes, X and Y. Every human diploid cell has 22 pairs of autosomes and one pair of sex chromosomes. A human female has two X chromosomes, while a male has one X chromosome and one Y chromosome.
The germline cells such as egg and sperm cells carry only half the number of chromosomes, i.e., 22 autosomes and one sex chromosome. All eggs have an X chromosome, while sperm cells can carry an X or...

Factors Affecting the Risk of Infection01:26

Factors Affecting the Risk of Infection

11.8K
The hosts' susceptibility to infection depends on several factors. The integrity of the skin and mucous membranes helps protect the body against microbial attacks. When the skin is altered, the chance of infection, limb loss, and even death increases.
The integrity and count of the white blood cells help the body resist pathogens and fight infection. When impaired, it reduces the body's resistance to pathogens. The acidic pH levels of the gastrointestinal, genitourinary tracts, and skin...

The Ratio of X Chromosome to Autosomes02:45

The Ratio of X Chromosome to Autosomes

8.5K
In most organisms, sex is determined by the ratio of X and Y chromosomes. However, in some organisms, such as Drosophila and C.elegans, sex is determined by the ratio of the number of X chromosomes to the number of sets of autosomes. The Y chromosome in Drosophila is active but does not determine sex. It contains genes responsible for the production of sperms in adult flies.  
Normal male Drosophila has a ratio of one X chromosome to two sets of autosomes. In contrast, normal female...

  • Dermatología
  • Endocrinología

Sus antecedentes:

  • La inmunidad de la piel es crucial para la protección contra los patógenos.
  • Se sabe que los andrógenos influyen en varios procesos fisiológicos, incluida la función inmune.
  • Las diferencias de sexo en las respuestas inmunes son cada vez más reconocidas.

Objetivo del estudio:

  • Investigar el papel de la señalización de andrógenos en la modulación de la inmunidad cutánea.
  • Para determinar cómo los andrógenos afectan las respuestas inflamatorias en la piel de ratones machos.

Principales métodos:

  • Se analizaron las poblaciones de células inmunes de la piel y los perfiles de citoquinas.
  • Se investigó el impacto de la activación/bloqueo de los receptores de andrógenos en la inflamación de la piel.

Principales resultados:

  • La señalización de andrógenos redujo significativamente los marcadores inflamatorios en la piel del ratón macho.
  • Los subconjuntos específicos de células inmunes en la piel mostraron respuestas alteradas bajo la influencia de los andrógenos.
