Noninvasive reconstruction of placental methylome from maternal plasma DNA: potential for prenatal testing and monitoring.

Author
Abstract
:

During human pregnancy, the DNA methylation of placental tissue is highly relevant to the normal growth and development of the fetus, therefore methylomic analysis of the placental tissue possesses high research and clinical value in prenatal testing and monitoring. Thus our aim is to develop an approach for reconstruction of the placental methylome, which should be completely noninvasive and achieve high accuracy and resolution.
