Sperm chromatin accessibility’s involvement in the intergenerational effects of stress hormone receptor activation
8 Dec 2023
Abstract excerpt
Dexamethasone is a stress hormone receptor agonist used widely in clinics. We and others previously showed that paternal administration of dexamethasone in mice affects the phenotype of their offspring. The substrate of intergenerational transmission of environmentally induced effects often involves changes in sperm RNA, yet other epigenetic modifications in the germline can be affected and are also plausible...
