Recent in vitro studies of human sex chromosome aneuploidy showed that the Xi ("inactive" X) and Y chromosomes broadly modulate autosomal and Xa ("active" X) gene expression. We tested these findings in vivo. Linear modeling of CD4 T cells and monocytes from individuals with one to three X chromosomes and zero to two Y chromosomes revealed 82 sex-chromosomal and 344 autosomal genes whose expression changed significantly with Xi and/or Y dosage in vivo.

We tested these findings in two additional cell types. Using linear modeling in CD4+ T cells and monocytes from individuals with one to three X chromosomes and zero to two Y chromosomes, we identified 82 sex-chromosomal and 344 autosomal genes whose expression changed significantly with Xi and/or Y dosage .

Somatic cells of human males and females have 45 chromosomes in common, including the "active" X chromosome. In males the 46 chromosome is a Y; in females it is an "inactive" X (Xi). Through linear modeling of autosomal gene expression in cells from individuals with zero to three Xi and zero to four Y chromosomes, we found that Xi and Y impact autosomal expression broadly and with remarkably similar effects.

Background: Zinc finger protein X-linked (ZFX) has been shown to promote the growth of tumor cells, including leukemic cells. However, the role of ZFX in the growth and drug response of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) stem/progenitor cells remains unclear.
Methods: Real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) and immunofluorescence were used to analyze the expression of ZFX and WNT3 in CML CD34 cells compared with normal control cells.
