Abstract
DNA methylation at H19 ICR1 was investigated in the placenta from pregnancies conceived by in vitro fertilization, intracytoplasmic sperm injection, and from natural conception. Our results showed that there were no significant differences in mean methylation between all pregnancy groups; therefore, assisted reproductive technology may not affect proper imprinting of H19 and IGF2.
