A new study has found that the X chromosomes from the mother from the mother may be responsible for rapid aging of the brain, which may potentially increase the risk of conditions such as Alzheimer’s disease. Only women have two x chromosomes (XX) while men have one x and one y (xy). Given the natural order, the X chromosome holds a significant amount of genetic material, and can have a deep effect of any mutation or variation here, especially when an X chromosome in women is randomly passive in each cell.
Although women survive longer than men and have low dementia rates, Alzheimer’s disease is an exception that affects them at a higher rate. Nevertheless, some studies suggest that women live longer with Alzheimer’s than men. Researchers came out to find out the reason and believed that gender chromosomes, X and Y can help explain the difference.
Paper’s senior writer Dena Dubbal said, “X chromosomes are common in humans, and are definitely women who are moving with a much higher or low level of maternal X chromosomes than others.”
“It has rare research on its possible consequences,” he said.

‘Use’
To learn more this idea, researchers used different age female laboratory mice. In some cases, the ancestral X chromosomes calmed down, which only made mother’s X active. These mice were compared to other mice in which a mixture of maternal and ancestral X was on.
According to the findings, the young “mom-X” rats were cognitively similar to young mice, but large cognitive declines were seen in large mice. In the brain of these mice, the maternal X chromosome increased the speed of biological aging in the hippocampus – an area of ​​the brain which is important for learning and memory.
Ms. Dubbal said, “These conclusions increase the possibility that some women who express more to their mother’s X chromosomes with pure coincidence, may have more cognitive loss with aging or may increase the risk of diseases like Alzheimer’s. Is.”
“After all, it can also help us find a creative strategy to slow down brain aging in both sexes.”
Although the research was done on mice, but conclusions, if they are translated into humans, can point to drivers of cognitive decline related to a particular penis and eventually, we can fund them to stop or treat ways to stop or treat them Can help.
