The scientists established that men’s sperm with age obtains the properties, because of which increases the probability of appearing of different anomalies in future posterity caused by genetic defects. It is known that with age increases the risk of development of autism, schizophrenia and other psychological disorders in successors. The British scientists from the University

Araştırmacılar, IVF’den sonra embriyonların uterus duvarına yapışmamasının prosesinin biyolojık nedeni tespit ettiler. Son araştırmaların göstergelerine göre , tekrarlanan başarısız implantasyon kadınlarında endometriumunda mikroRNA (miRNA) düzeylerinin değiştiğini bulmuştur. Ama bu moleküllerin embriyona bağlanması nasıl etkilediği önceden bilinmiyordu. Manchester Üniversitesi’ndeki İnsani Gelişme Enstitüsü’ndeki bilim insanları, daha önce bağlanma sürecinde rol oynamadığı bilinen başka bir insülin benzeri büyüme

MUMBAI: A woman who has attained motherhood through a surrogacy procedure is entitled to six months maternity leave like any other woman, the Bombay High Court has ruled. “Having considered rules 551(C) and(E) of Child Adoption Leave and Rules, we find that a case is made out for grant of interim relief as there is nothing

When you make a baby, half of the genetic information comes from the mom and half from the dad, right? Turns out, not exactly. Research from the emerging field of epigenetics, or outside factors that influence genes, shows that info in the mother’s egg plays a crucial role in the development of the placenta—and, therefore, in

Scientists have formulated a system that uses ultrasound images to accurately work out the likelihood of an ovarian growth being cancerous. The team – from international institutions including Imperial College London and the University of Leuven – say the system could allow medics to classify a tumour as cancerous before surgery, and could potentially improve outcomes for patients. In

New research findings from Lund University in Sweden show that a simple analysis of chromosomal breaks in sperms can facilitate choice of the most efficient treatment and, thereby, increase chances of successful assisted reproduction in involuntary childless couples. Sperm DNA Fragmentation Index (DFI) is a method for analysing semen quality that shows presence of chromosomal

Study co-lead Professor Nick Macklon, chair in obstetrics and gynaecology at the University of Southampton, said the discovery would help clinicians understand why IVF fails repeatedly

UK scientists have been given the go-ahead by the fertility regulator to genetically modify human embryos. It is the first time a country has considered the DNA-altering technique in embryos and approved it.The research will take place at the Francis Crick Institute in London and aims to provide a deeper understanding of the earliest moments
