Metabolomic Sexual Dimorphism of the Mouse Brain is Predominantly Abolished by Gonadectomy with a Higher Impact on Females

Résumé

The importance of sexual dimorphism of the mouse brain metabolome was recently highlighted, in addition to a high regional specificity found between the frontal cortex, the cerebellum, and the brain stem. To address the origin of this dimorphism, we performed gonadectomy on both sexes, followed by a metabolomic study targeting 188 metabolites in the three brain regions. While sham controls, which underwent the same surgical procedure without gonadectomy, reproduced the regional sexual dimorphism of the metabolome previously identified, no sex difference was identifiable after gonadectomy, through both univariate and multivariate analyses. These experiments also made it possible to identify which sex was responsible for the dimorphism for 35 metabolites. The female sex contributed to the difference for more than 80% of them. Our results show that gonads are the main contributors to the brain sexual dimorphism previously observed, especially in females.
