P-94: Mouse Embryo Vitrification Cannot Effect on Global DNA Methylation in Preimplantation Stage
Background: Embryo vitrification was effectively used for assisted reproductive techniques. Despite the undeniable benefits of vitrification, cooling and warming stress, and cytotoxicity of cryoprotectant may affect the DNA methylation that have an important role in gene activation and silencing. In the present study effects of 2-cell embryo vitrification on DNA methylation in hatched blastocys...
متن کاملDynamics of DNA Methylation during Early Development of the Preimplantation Bovine Embryo
There is species divergence in control of DNA methylation during preimplantation development. The exact pattern of methylation in the bovine embryo has not been established nor has its regulation by gender or maternal signals that regulate development such as colony stimulating factor 2 (CSF2). Using immunofluorescent labeling with anti-5-methylcytosine and embryos produced with X-chromosome so...
متن کاملDNA synthesis in the preimplantation mouse embryo.
Strain PO preimplantation embryos were labelled with [H]thymidine. The incorporation of the label was studied by autoradiography of air-dried and serially sectioned embryos. DNA amounts were measured with a microdensitometer. The following observations were made at the 5to 16-cell stages. All nuclei contained 2C-4C amounts of DNA and all could eventually synthesize DNA. However, after short lab...
متن کاملI-20: Towards The Transparent Embryo: Dynamics and Ethics of Comprehensive Preimplantation Genetic Screening
Background: To study the ethical aspects of comprehensive preimplantation genetic screening (PGS) through microarrays and whole genome sequencing Materials and Methods: In order to pinpoint ethical issues regarding comprehensive embryo screening we have first investigated the technical and moral issues by organizing a campus meeting with experts and by a literature study. Subsequently we have i...
متن کاملAbnormal DNA Methylation of Imprinted Loci in Human Preimplantation Embryos.
PURPOSE To evaluate the epigenetic risk linked to assisted reproductive technology (ART) at single-embryo level by analyzing the methylation status of imprinted H19, PEG1, and KvDMR1 in human preimplantation embryos. METHODS A total of 254 human day 3 embryos produced by ART procedures were collected. All embryos were normally fertilized but unsuitable for transfer or freezing due to poor qua...
