Gestational diabetes mellitus causes genome hyper-methylation of oocyte via increased EZH2 by Hong-Yan Guo, Shou-Bin Tang, Li-Jun Li, Jing Lin, Ting-Ting Zhang, Shuo Chao, Xiao-Wen Jin, Kui-Peng Xu, Xiao-Feng Su, Shen Yin, Ming-Hui Zhao, Gui-An Huang, Li-Jia Yang, Wei Shen, Lei Zhang, Cui-Lian Zhang, Qing-Yuan Sun, Zhao-Jia Ge

“…Here, we report the influence of GDM on DNA methylation of offspring (GDF1) oocytes and the possible mechanisms. Our results show that GDM induces genomic hyper-methylation of offspring oocytes, and at least a part of the altered methylation is inherited by F2 oocytes, which may be a reason for the inheritance of metabolic disorders. …”
