## Study
|
||||
- 197 hematologically normal females
|
||||
- 23 newborn - taken during delivery
|
||||
- 94 young adult - age: 17-50 median 30
|
||||
- 80 eldery - age: 75-96 median 81
|
||||
- purified neutrofils
|
||||
- purified T-cells
|
||||

|
||||
### Methods
|
||||
1. <small>Peripheral blood samples were collected</small>
|
||||
2. <small>Neutrophils and T cells were isolated using cell separation techniques _(centrifugation followed by lineage-specific purification)_</small>
|
||||
3. <small>X-chromosome inactivation was analyzed using the HUMARA PCR assay _(PCR-based measurement of which X chromosome is active)_</small>
|
||||
4. <small>T cells were analyzed by PCR to check for clonal expansion _(T-cell receptor γ gene rearrangement analysis)_</small >

In other words, they studied human hematopoiesis across age by analyzing purified blood cell lineages from the subjects.

|

### Results
|
||||
1. X chromosome usage is similar in newborns and young adults.
|
||||
2. Neutrophils from elderly female individuals show strongly uneven X chromosome usage.
|
||||
3. T-cells show much less uneven X chromosome usage and no dominant clonal expansion

<small>
|

- Graph shows the distribution of X chromosome usage in 23 newborn
|
||||
- X-axis: % of cells using the less common X chromosome.
|
||||
- Y-axis: number of individuals in each group.
|
||||
Conclusion: Newborns mostly show balanced use of the two X chromosomes

<small>
|
||||
- This graph shows the purified neutrofils from 80 elderly (y >= 75) females
|
||||
- X and Y axis is the same as in previous graph
|
||||
Conclusion: Elderly neutrophils frequently show strongly uneven X chromosome usage.
