Epigenetic Dysregulation Observed in Monosomy Blastocysts Further Compromises Developmental Potential.
Epigenetic mechanisms such as DNA methylation regulate genomic imprinting and account for the distinct non-equivalence of the parental genomes in the embryo. Chromosomal aneuploidy, a major cause of infertility, distorts this highly regulated disparity by the presence or absence of chromosomes. The...
