Journal ArticleDOI

In Vitro Fertilization May Increase the Risk of Beckwith-Wiedemann Syndrome Related to the Abnormal Imprinting of the KCNQ1OT Gene

TL;DR: The department is a reference center in France for molecular diagnosis of BWS, and patients are referred from various medical departments (neonatology, pediatrics, genetics, and fetopathology), and a series of 149 patients referred for overgrowth syndromes were studied.
Journal ArticleDOI

The epigenetic imprinting defect of patients with Beckwith—Wiedemann syndrome born after assisted reproductive technology is not restricted to the 11p15 region

TL;DR: The mosaic distribution of epimutations suggests that imprinting is lost after fertilisation owing to a failure to maintain methylation marks during pre-implantation development.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rearrangements at the 11p15 locus and overexpression of insulin-like growth factor-II gene in sporadic adrenocortical tumors

TL;DR: Results in combination with evidence for overexpression of IGF-II from the 11p15.5 locus suggest that abnormalities in structure and/or expression of the IGF- II gene play a role as a late event of a multistep process of tumorigenesis.
