The Number of X Chromosomes Influences Inflammatory Cytokine Production Following Toll-Like Receptor Stimulation
Sex differences are observed in the evolution of numerous inflammatory conditions. Women exhibit better clinical courses compared to men in acute inflammatory processes, yet worse prognosis in several chronic inflammatory diseases. Inflammatory markers are significantly different between prepubertal...
