Abstract
The assisted reproductive technologies of ICSI and IVF do not appear to affect XCI skewing. Skewing variability within the placentas analyzed supports the theory that weaker selective pressures occur in the placenta that could result in skewed inactivation. Our study is the largest to date to investigate this epigenetic phenomenon in infants conceived by ICSI and IVF alongside age-matched NC controls.
