Role of ART in Imprinting Disorders [PDF]

open access: yesSeminars in Reproductive Medicine, 2012
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

open access: yesBiomolecular Concepts, 2015
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]

open access: yesCurr Opin Pediatr, 2020
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]

open access: yesMol Psychiatry, 2023
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]

open access: yesClin Epigenetics, 2022
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).

Frequency of de novo variants and parental mosaicism in families with inactivating PTH/PTHrP signaling disorder type 2

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2023
ObjectiveiPPSD2 (which includes PHP1A and PPHP/POH) is a rare inherited autosomal dominant endocrine disorder caused by inactivating GNAS pathogenic variants. A high percentage of de novo cases has been suggested.

Co-occurrence of Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome and pseudohypoparathyroidism type 1B: coincidence or common molecular mechanism?

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2023
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.

First‐time application of droplet digital PCR for methylation testing of the 11p15.5 imprinting regions

open access: yesMolecular Genetics & Genomic Medicine, 2023
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
