[Sex differences in the frequency of individual acrocentric chromosome association in short-term human lymphocyte cultures]. 1980

N V Kovaleva, and T B Palkina

When studying the satellite associations in PHA-stimulated peripherial blood lymphocytes from healthy children some sex differences were found in the association pattern of individual pairs of acrocentric chromosomes. We believe that these data may be connected with sex difference in cell cycle of stimulated human lymphocytes.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008214 Lymphocytes White blood cells formed in the body's lymphoid tissue. The nucleus is round or ovoid with coarse, irregularly clumped chromatin while the cytoplasm is typically pale blue with azurophilic (if any) granules. Most lymphocytes can be classified as either T or B (with subpopulations of each), or NATURAL KILLER CELLS. Lymphoid Cells,Cell, Lymphoid,Cells, Lymphoid,Lymphocyte,Lymphoid Cell
D008297 Male Males
