Zebrafish gonad mutant models reveal neuroendocrine mechanisms of brain sexual dimorphism and male mating behaviors of different brain regions
BackgroundSexually dimorphic mating behaviors differ between sexes and involve gonadal hormones and possibly sexually dimorphic gene expression in...

Brain–body mechanisms contribute to sexual dimorphism in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is the most common form of human motor neuron disease. It is characterized by the progressive degeneration of...

Skull Ontogeny and Sexual Dimorphism
The skull ontogeny and sexual dimorphism of the plains vizcacha, Lagostomus maximus, is here described from quantitative approaches. The quantitative... -
Sexual dimorphism in the murine model of extraparenchymal neurocysticercosis
Neurocysticercosis is a heterogeneous disease, and the patient’s sex seems to play a role in this heterogeneity. Hosts’ sexual dimorphism in...

Sexual dimorphism of the fetal brain biometry: an MRI-based study
PurposeFetal growth assessment is a key component of prenatal care. Sex-specific fetal brain nomograms on ultrasound are available and are clinically...
-
An emerging link between lncRNAs and cancer sex dimorphism
The prevalence and progression of cancer differ in males and females, and thus, sexual dimorphism in tumor development directly impacts clinical...

Insights and implications of sexual dimorphism in osteoporosis
Osteoporosis, a metabolic bone disease characterized by low bone mineral density and deterioration of bone microarchitecture, has led to a high risk...

Sexual dimorphism in the relationship between brain complexity, volume and general intelligence (g): a cross-cohort study
Changes in brain morphology have been reported during development, ageing and in relation to different pathologies. Brain morphology described by the...

Sexual Dimorphism in Substrate Metabolism During Exercise
During aerobic exercise, women oxidize significantly more lipids and less carbohydrates than men. This sexual dimorphism in substrate metabolism has...

Investigating sexual dimorphism in human brain structure by combining multiple indexes of brain morphology and source-based morphometry
Computational morphometry of magnetic resonance images represents a powerful tool for studying macroscopic differences in human brains. In the...

Sex dimorphism controls dysbindin-related cognitive dysfunctions in mice and humans with the contribution of COMT
Cognitive dysfunctions are core-enduring symptoms of schizophrenia, with important sex-related differences. Genetic variants of the DTBPN1 gene...

Sexual dimorphism in odontometric parameters using cone beam CT: a systematic review
ObjectiveTo determine whether odontometric parameters using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) would aid in sex estimation by assessing sexual...

Multimodal Image Analysis of Sexual Dimorphism in Develo** Childhood Brain
It is well known that there exist great differences in human brain anatomy and functions between males and females. With the development of...

Sexual dimorphism in NLR transcripts and its downstream signaling protein IL-1ꞵ in teleost Channa punctata (Bloch, 1793)
Nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptors (NOD-like receptors or NLRs) are a family of intracellular pattern recognition receptors...

Temporo-basal sulcal connections: a manual annotation protocol and an investigation of sexual dimorphism and heritability
The temporo-basal region of the human brain is composed of the collateral, the occipito-temporal, and the rhinal sulci. We manually rated (using a...

Interaction between gut microbiota and sex hormones and their relation to sexual dimorphism in metabolic diseases
Metabolic diseases, such as obesity, metabolic syndrome (MetS) and type 2 diabetes (T2D), are now a widespread pandemic in the developed world. These...

Pelvic sexual dimorphism and its association with cranial morphology in Neotropical spiny rats (Rodentia, Echimyidae)
Pelvic morphology in mammals is shaped by several factors, including the functional commitment with parturition. Due to this, some mammalian clades,...

Sexual Dimorphism of Inputs to the Lateral Habenula in Mice
The lateral habenula (LHb), which is a critical neuroanatomical hub and a regulator of midbrain monoaminergic centers, is activated by events...

Increased proliferation and neuronal fate in prairie vole brain progenitor cells cultured in vitro: effects by social exposure and sexual dimorphism
BackgroundThe prairie vole ( Microtus ochrogaster ) is a socially monogamous rodent that establishes an enduring pair bond after cohabitation, with...
