Abstract:Frequent chromosomal abnormalities are a distinctive feature of early embryonic development in mammals, especially humans. Aneuploidy is considered as a contributing factor to failed embryo implantation and spontaneous abortions. In the case of chromosomal mosaicism, its effect on the potency of embryos to normally develop has not been sufficiently studied. Although, a significant percentage of chromosomal defects in early human embryos are currently believed to be associated with the features of clinical and … Show more
