We found that the cells we grew on our hydrogel models were able to replicate the sex differences seen in valve tissue – namely, valve cells with XX chromosomes had more scarring than cells with XY chromosomes. Moreover, when we decreased the activity of genes that escaped X-inactivation, we were able to decrease scarring in XX chromosome cells.

Our next step was to use our models to determine which treatments work best for AVS based on cell sex.

Drugs that specifically target genes that escape X-inactivation, however, have a stronger effect on XX cells.
