It will provide a better understanding of how drugs affect men and women differently.
Scientists created male and female cells with the same genetic code from the same person for the first time. This unique set of cells could provide researchers with valuable insights into how sex chromosomes affect various diseases and their role in early development.In humans, most people have two sex chromosomes, either two X chromosomes or an X chromosome and a Y chromosome . These
This is because, when people are recruited for studies, gender is only one factor that defines them. It's often unclear whether people respond differently to an illness or treatment because of their gender, genes, health background, or a range of other factors. The team conducted experiments to confirm and replicate findings from previous studies using other models. For example, they found that certain genes were more active in XX or XY cells. They also used their stem cells to create immature versions of neurons and observed sex-based differences in their early development.
