Sex-Interacting mRNA- and miRNA-eQTLs and Their Implications in Gene Expression Regulation and Disease

Despite sex being an important epidemiological and physiological factor, not much is known about how sex works to interact with genotypes to result in different phenotypes. Both messenger RNA (mRNA) and microRNA (miRNA) may be differentially expressed between the sexes in different physiological con...
