Researchers have shed new light on how a type of heart valve disease -- aortic valve stenosis -- progresses differently in males and females.

And in the long term, it would behoove scientists to study the role of the Y chromosome in brain aging; although it carries ...

Researchers found that a gene on the Y chromosome influences how aortic valve stenosis progresses differently in males and ...

The research reveals that this sex-based difference can be traced to a gene on the Y chromosome. The discovery, published on March 12 in Science Advances, not only showcases the critical need to ...

Of the 25 genes, 3 are Y-linked and 10 are X-linked ... Our findings indicate that the X chromosome has a predominant role in pre-meiotic stages of mammalian spermatogenesis.

The X and Y chromosomes, commonly referred to as the sex chromosomes, are one such pair. They determine the biological sex, reproductive organs, and sexual characteristics that develop in a person.
