The result is a common abnormality known as aneuploidy, which occurs in as many as 80 percent of human embryos. (nprc.org)
Because aneuploidy has been linked to a risk of in vitro fertilization failure, miscarriage and certain genetic orders or birth defects, mosaic embryos- those with both normal and abnormal cells-have not been considered ideal candidates for IVF transfer. (nprc.org)
For prospective mothers who only produce mosaic embryos, this can mean the IVF journey may end before it begins. (nprc.org)
The ONPRC study, led by Shawn L. Chavez, PhD, an assistant professor of reproductive and developmental sciences at ONPRC at OHSU, and an assistant professor of obstetrics and gynecology, and physiology and pharmacology in the OHSU School of Medicine, is the first to confirm mosaic embryos can adapt and persist in development in a nonhuman primate model, resulting in positive IVF outcomes. (nprc.org)

Q: If our embryos are abnormal, would it be bad to try to transfer them or transfer the mosaic one? (laurelfertility.com)
I would recommend transferring a low-mosaic embryo depending on the type of mosaicism (avoid anything with chromosomes 13,18,21,X,Y). Although the scientific literature suggests mosaic embryos have a lower chance of implanting, they still lead to healthy live births. (laurelfertility.com)

While not perceived as a contender at the start of the IVF race, a mosaic embryo may still be capable of winning and resulting in something wonderful. (nprc.org)
Mosaic embryo samples composed primarily of normal cells are classified as low-level mosaic (L-mos), and those that contain mostly abnormal cells are classified as high-level mosaic (H-mos). (txfertility.com)
Ovation ® Genetics, a reference lab used by Texas Fertility Center, uses the following classification criteria for reporting mosaic embryo results. (txfertility.com)
When a mosaic abnormality is identified in a biopsy sample, it is uncertain if abnormal cells will also be present throughout the rest of the embryo. (txfertility.com)
An embryo that has a mosaic PGT-A result may have the potential to develop into either a chromosomally normal, abnormal or mosaic embryo. (txfertility.com)
As such, the implications for each mosaic embryo can be difficult to predict. (txfertility.com)
But if you are considering transferring a mosaic embryo, it is important to be aware of the risks. (txfertility.com)
If you choose to transfer a mosaic embryo, we strongly recommend follow-up prenatal testing by amniocentesis. (txfertility.com)
Choosing to transfer a mosaic embryo is a decision that must be made with a thorough understanding of the potential implications and risks. (txfertility.com)
Genetic9
The use of preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy (PGT-A), formerly known as preimplantation genetic screening or PGS, has increased in recent years, now encompassing an estimated 40% of in vitro fertilization (IVF) cycles in the United States. (medscape.com)

I have extensive experience and a long-standing interest in using cell biological and genetic approaches to uncover mechanistic links between chromosomal aneuploidy and human disease. (cuanschutz.edu)
My studies of aneuploidy began as a graduate student in Dr. Mark Winey's laboratory at the University of Colorado-Boulder, where I discovered a shared localization of yeast Ndc1p to spindle poles and nuclear pore complexes and I identified NDC1 gene dosage effects - both haploinsufficiency and overexpression - that lead to genetic instability and aneuploidy in yeast. (cuanschutz.edu)
Based on these findings, we hypothesized that the phenotypes associated with altered NDC1 gene dosage and its ability to induce aneuploidy could serve as a model for understanding human diseases associated with genetic instability, including cancer and neurodegenerative disease. (cuanschutz.edu)
