Effects of sex (or lack thereof) on meibogenesis in mice (Mus musculus): Comparative evaluation of lipidomes and transcriptomes of male and female tarsal plates

The possible role of sex in the biosynthesis of lipids in the Meibomian glands (termed meibogenesis) remains unclear. To determine if there were any major sex-specific differences in the lipid composition of meibomian gland secretions (meibum) and gene expression patterns (GEP) related to meibogenes...
