Aberrant hypomethylation at imprinted differentially methylated regions is involved in biparental placental mesenchymal dysplasia
17 May 2022
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Placental mesenchymal dysplasia (PMD) is a morphological abnormality resembling partial hydatidiform moles. It is often associated with androgenetic/biparental mosaicism (ABM) and complicated by Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome (BWS), an imprinting disorder. These phenomena suggest an association between PMD and aberrant genomic imprinting, particularly of CDKN1C and IGF2. The existence of another type of...
