Role of ART in Imprinting Disorders [PDF]
Assisted reproductive technologies (ART) offer revolutionary infertility treatments for millions of childless couples around the world. Currently, ART accounts for 1 to 3% of annual births in industrialized countries and continues to expand rapidly. Except for an increased incidence of premature births, these technologies are considered safe.

Multilocus methylation defects in imprinting disorders
Mammals inherit two complete sets of chromosomes, one from the father and one from the mother, and most autosomal genes are expressed from both maternal and paternal alleles. In imprinted genes, the expression of the allele is dependent upon its parental

Imprinting disorders in humans: a review. [PDF]
Purpose of review Mammals have two complete sets of chromosomes, one from each parent with equal autosomal gene expression. Less than one percentage of human genes are imprinted or show expression from only one parent without changing gene structure, usually by DNA methylation, but reversible in gametogenesis.

Novel epigenetic molecular therapies for imprinting disorders. [PDF]
AbstractGenomic imprinting disorders are caused by the disruption of genomic imprinting processes leading to a deficit or increase of an active allele. Their unique molecular mechanisms underlying imprinted genes offer an opportunity to investigate epigenetic-based therapy for reactivation of an inactive allele or reduction of an active allele. Current

Promising therapeutic aspects in human genetic imprinting disorders. [PDF]
AbstractGenomic imprinting is an epigenetic phenomenon of monoallelic gene expression pattern depending on parental origin. In humans, congenital imprinting disruptions resulting from genetic or epigenetic mechanisms can cause a group of diseases known as genetic imprinting disorders (IDs).

Imprinting disorders are congenital diseases caused by dysregulation of genomic imprinting, affecting growth, neurocognitive development, metabolism and cancer predisposition. Overlapping clinical features are often observed among this group of diseases.

Background Beckwith‐Wiedemann syndrome and Silver‐Russel syndrome are two imprinting disorders caused by opposite molecular alterations in 11p15.5. With the current diagnostic tests, their molecular diagnosis is challenging due to molecular heterogeneity
