NLRP7 and KHDC3L, the two maternal-effect proteins responsible for recurrent hydatidiform moles, co-localize to the oocyte cytoskeleton.
STUDY QUESTION What is the subcellular localization in human oocytes and preimplantation embryos, of the two maternal-effect proteins, NLRP7 and KHDC3L, responsible for recurrent hydatidiform moles (RHMs)? SUMMARY ANSWER NLRP7 and KHDC3L localize to the oocyte cytoskeleton and are polar and absent from the cell-to-cell contact region in early preimplantation embryos. WHAT IS KNOWN ALREADY N...
متن کاملFounder Effect of KHDC3L, p.M1V Mutation, on Iranian Patients with Recurrent Hydatidiform Moles
Background: Recurrent hydatidiform moles (RHMs) are an unusual pregnancy with at least two molar gestations that are associated with abnormal proliferation of trophoblastic tissue and a failure in the embryonic tissues development. Three maternal-effect genes, including NLRP7, KHDC3L, and PADI6 have been identified as the cause of RHMs. The present study aimed to understand the association of a...
متن کاملNLRP7 or KHDC3L genes and the etiology of molar pregnancies and recurrent miscarriage.
Women with mutation in both alleles of the NLRP7 or C6orf221/KHDC3L genes are predisposed to diploid biparental moles, but it has also been suggested that mutation in these genes can predispose to diploid androgenetic or triploid moles and to other kinds of reproductive wastage. We have investigated the association between molar pregnancy and recurrent miscarriages regarding changes in the NLRP...
متن کاملA Novel Mutation in NLRP7 Related to Recurrent Hyda-tidiform Mole and Reproductive Failure
Objective Hydatidiform mole (HM) is an abnormal human pregnancy with excessive trophoblastic proliferation and abnormal embryonic development, which is divided into two Complete (CHM) and Partial (PHM) groups. One subcategory of the CHMs is recurrent and familial, which is known as biparental hydatidiform mole (BiHMs) or recurrent hydatidiform mole (RHM). NLRP7 and KHDC3L, two maternal-effect g...
متن کاملAbsence of Maternal Methylation in Biparental Hydatidiform Moles from Women with NLRP7 Maternal-Effect Mutations Reveals Widespread Placenta-Specific Imprinting
Familial recurrent hydatidiform mole (RHM) is a maternal-effect autosomal recessive disorder usually associated with mutations of the NLRP7 gene. It is characterized by HM with excessive trophoblastic proliferation, which mimics the appearance of androgenetic molar conceptuses despite their diploid biparental constitution. It has been proposed that the phenotypes of both types of mole are assoc...
