Large offspring syndrome, a bovine model for the human loss-of-imprinting overgrowth syndrome Beckwith-Wiedemann
Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome (BWS) is a human loss-of-imprinting syndrome primarily characterized by macrosomia, macroglossia, and abdominal wall defects. BWS has been associated with misregulation of two clusters of imprinted genes. Children conceived with the use of assisted reproductive …

Establishment of a phenotypical model of adverse outcomes associated with assisted reproductive technologies
Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome (BWS) is a loss-of-imprinting pediatric overgrowth syndrome. BWS is speculated to occur primarily as the result of the misregulation of imprinted genes associated with two clusters on chromosome 11p15.5, namely the KvDMR1 and H19/IGF2. There is a similar overgrowth …

Altered microrna expression profiles in bovine fetuses with an assisted reproduction-induced congenital overgrowth syndrome
… series of fertility treatments used to conceive offspring. ART is used worldwide in humans for treatment of infertility and in ruminants to improve genetic merit. The use of ART can induce congenital overgrowth conditions in humans and ruminants, namely Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome (BWS) and large …
