Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Prenatal genetic testing for imprinting disorders is rarely requested with the exception of Beckwith‐Wiedemann syndrome (BWS) which is associated with specific ultrasound findings (e.g., placental mesenchymal dysplasia, omphalocele). However, genetic testing for BWS is challenging as aberrant DNA methylation has to be addressed which

Iflaviruses in arthropods: when small is mighty
Insect Science, EarlyView.Many arthropod species harbor iflaviruses, which often cause covert (asymptomatic) infections, but may still affect host fitness. We review the impact of iflaviruses on arthropod fitness, immunity, behaviour as well as the iflavirus’ host range, transmission, tissue tropism and the interactions with other microorganisms within arthropods.

Shaping Future Children, Sex Selection, and “Normal” Human Capacities
Bioethics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT If we think that parents have an obligation to have a healthy child then we need to know what counts as healthy, when male and female children are born with very different capacities. If we give up on the idea that our obligations to use technologies of genetic selection are discharged once we try to secure the birth of a healthy child, as ...

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.Fetal growth restriction is associated with placental metabolic adaptations. In small‐for‐gestational‐age placenta (SGA), cholesterol receptors and steroidogenic enzymes are upregulated, enhancing steroidogenesis. NAD salvage pathway is also increased to support NADP+/NADPH requirements.
