Vertical transmission of maternal DNA through extracellular vesicles associates with altered embryo bioenergetics during the periconception period
2023-04-21
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Summary</h4> The transmission of DNA through extracellular vesicles (EVs) represents a novel genetic material transfer mechanism that may impact genome evolution and tumorigenesis. We aimed to investigate the potential for vertical DNA transmission within maternal endometrial EVs to the pre-implantation embryo and describe any effect on embryo bioenergetics. We discovered that the human endometrium secretes a...
