Some cis eQTLs are detected in many tissue types but the majority of trans eQTLs are tissue-dependent (dynamic). [10] eQTLs may act in cis (locally) or trans (at a distance) to a gene. [11] The abundance of a gene transcript is directly modified by polymorphism in regulatory elements. Consequently, transcript abundance might be considered as a ...

"Trans women are women—full stop. We're every bit as 'biologically female' as cis women & @SpeakerJohnson's statement doesn't change the fact that women's spaces include trans women."
A 2016 review reported that early-onset androphilic transgender women have a brain structure similar to cisgender women's and unlike cisgender men's, but that they have their own brain phenotype. [2] It also reported that gynephilic trans women differ from both cisgender female and male controls in non-dimorphic brain areas. [2]
This is so insulting to cis women, to trans women, and to the game itself. It assumes that cis women couldn’t be competitive against cis men - and relies on ignorant anti-trans ideas.
Trans "chasers" often identify as heterosexual and may therefore represent queer heterosexuality [6]: 378 51% of men attracted to trans women identify as heterosexual. [7] Cis women who pursue specifically FTMs can also be called trans-chasers. Female trans-chasers are thought to be less common than male trans-chasers because of women face a ...
