Gonzalo Borrego-Yaniz @goboru.bsky.social · 16/04/2026How many of the genetic associations in previous studies in autoimmune diseases are actually sex-dependent? This study highlights the importance of studying genomics in a sex-aware manner 100
Gonzalo Borrego-Yaniz @goboru.bsky.social · 16/04/2026And even more interestingly (to me at least), we found that some previously described associations of SSc are actually only associated to women! But as sex-bias had not been considered in GWAS before, the higher incidence of SSc in females made it so they were identified as shared SSc risk variants 100
Gonzalo Borrego-Yaniz @goboru.bsky.social · 16/04/2026For this study, we tested genome-wide sex-specific associations, and we found novel (and sex-specific) genetic associations for both males and females 🔝 100
Gonzalo Borrego-Yaniz @goboru.bsky.social · 16/04/2026In the latest work of our group, Rodríguez-Martin ( @inmaculadaroma.bsky.social ) worked on a different hypothesis: common variants in autosomes also confer different genetic risk to systemic sclerosis depending on sex 110
Gonzalo Borrego-Yaniz @goboru.bsky.social · 16/04/2026What causes more women to develop autoimmune diseases? Currently, the explanation normally includes: hormones, chrX and sex differences in the immune system 131
