The development of the brain of male type trigger cells of the immune system: the beginning of becoming men it’s a bit like the inflammatory process.

Professor Margaret McCarthy from Maryland looking for the answer to a fascinating question: how are differences in the brain, determined by flooring?

Males especially a lot of synaptic connections in preoptičeskoj area of the hypothalamus, whereas in the brain of females more of them in other parts.
