Human embryos commonly form abnormal nuclei during development: a mechanism of DNA damage, embryonic aneuploidy, and developmental arrest
29 Nov 2015
Abstract excerpt
STUDY QUESTION: What is the prevalence and developmental significance of morphologic nuclear abnormalities in human preimplantation embryos? SUMMARY ANSWER: Nuclear abnormalities are commonly found in human IVF embryos and are associated with DNA damage, aneuploidy, and decreased developmental potential. WHAT IS KNOWN ALREADY: Early human embryonic development is complicated by genomic errors that occur after...
