MicroRNA expression and its association with DNA repair in preimplantation embryos
نویسندگان
چکیده
Active DNA repair pathways are crucial for preserving genomic integrity and are likely among the complex mechanisms involved in the normal development of preimplantation embryos. MicroRNAs (miRNA), short non-coding RNAs, are key regulators of gene expression through the post-transcriptional and post-translational modification of mRNA. The association of miRNA expression with infertility or polycystic ovarian syndrome has been widely investigated; however, there are limited data regarding the importance of miRNA regulation in DNA repair during preimplantation embryo development. In this article, we review normal miRNA biogenesis and consequences of aberrant miRNA expression in the regulation of DNA repair in gametes and preimplantation embryos.

Background: Because of the protection of surplus embryos, Cryopreservation is usually used in ART. It is not clear, the vitrified-warmed embryos that have normal morphology, be normal in genetic level, too. DNA methylation of gene regulatory regions can causes inhibition of gene expression. We study effect of vitrification method of cryopreservation on DNA methylation and gene expression level ...

متن کاملExpression and potential role of microRNA-29b in mouse early embryo development.
BACKGROUND/AIMS MicroRNA-29b (miR29b) has been previously identified in early mouse embryos through miRNA microarray analysis. Recent research has indicated that miR29b participates in DNA methylation by regulating DNA methyltransferase 3a/3b (Dnmt3a/3b) expression. However, the expression pattern and biological function of miR29b in mouse preimplantation embryonic development remain unknown. ...
