The biological underpinnings of these differences remain largely unresolved. Sexual differentiation of the nervous system depends on the precise temporal and spatial regulation of gene expression, which is coordinated by sex hormones and genetic factors at various developmental stages and anatomical sites. Disruptions in these processes can amplify vulnerability to neuropsychiatric conditions. <strong>Unraveling the genetic and molecular pathways that shape sex-dependent neuronal identity, connectivity, and plasticity is crucial for understanding their links to neuropsychiatric diseases.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.23.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;||||false|false&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/www.cbm.uam.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/The-Gates-of-Rodent-Behaviors-scaled.jpg&#8221; title_text=&#8221;The gates of rodent behaviors&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; animation_style=&#8221;zoom&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=&#8221;3_5,2_5&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.23.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||||false|false&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;0px||||false|false&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;3_5&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.23.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_heading title=&#8221;Research&#8221; module_id=&#8221;investiga&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.25.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;0px|||0px|false|false&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;3px|||8px|false|false&#8221; border_width_left=&#8221;6px&#8221; border_color_left=&#8221;#34609B&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_heading][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.25.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">The sexual differentiation of the mammalian brain has been primarily attributed to the effects of sex hormones. However, a growing body of evidence demonstrates that genetic and epigenetic factors also play key roles in shaping sexual differences.\u00a0<em>DMRT<\/em>\u00a0transcription factors are conserved master regulators of sex-specific traits across animal species. However, their functions in the mammalian nervous system are not yet fully understood. Our research explores how\u00a0<em>DMRTs<\/em>\u00a0govern sex-specific neuronal identities, cell numbers, circuit connectivity, and overall transcriptional regulation in the context of sex-linked genetic mechanisms.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;2_5&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.23.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/www.cbm.uam.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/IMG_1301-copy.jpeg&#8221; title_text=&#8221;Foto grupo&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;60px||||false|false&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;|||27px||&#8221; animation_style=&#8221;zoom&#8221; border_width_all=&#8221;3px&#8221; border_color_all=&#8221;#13B5BD&#8221; box_shadow_style=&#8221;preset3&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.23.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;0px||||false|false&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.23.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Over the past few years, we have built a comprehensive expression atlas for all\u00a0<em>Dmrt<\/em> genes in the mouse brain, comparing sexes and across development (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.informatics.jax.org\/reference\/J:364871\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">MGI repository<\/a>).

While mammalian\u00a0<em>Dmrts<\/em>\u00a0do not display sexually dimorphic expression, notable quantitative differences in expression levels between sexes emerged. Moreover, most\u00a0<em>Dmrt\u00a0<\/em>genes\u00a0were maintained in postmitotic neurons.
