Epigenetics of Male Infertility: The Role of DNA Methylation
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021 In recent years, a number of studies focused on the role of epigenetics, including DNA methylation, in spermatogenesis and male infertility. We aimed to provide an overview of the knowledge concerning the gene and genome methylation and its regulation ...

Mito-nuclear selection induces a trade-off between species ecological dominance and evolutionary lifespan [PDF]
Nature Ecology & Evolution, 2022, 2021 Mitochondrial and nuclear genomes must be co-adapted to ensure proper cellular respiration and energy production. Mito-nuclear incompatibility reduces individual fitness and induces hybrid infertility, suggesting a possible role in reproductive barriers and speciation.

Automatic evaluation of human oocyte developmental potential from microscopy images [PDF]
, 2021 Infertility is becoming an issue for an increasing number of couples. The most common solution, in vitro fertilization, requires embryologists to carefully examine light microscopy images of human oocytes to determine their developmental potential. We propose an automatic system to improve the speed, repeatability, and accuracy of this process.
