A KRABsody for Embryo-Placental Development
Résumé
Many of the hundreds of KRAB zinc finger proteins encoded by human and mouse are involved in taming the transcriptional regulatory potential of transposable elements. Reporting recently in Science, Yang et al. (2017) reveal that one murine family member, ZFP568, controls Igf2 expression for proper embryonic and placental development.

Placenta
thumb|250px|right|Le placenta et le cordon ombilical. On remarque la forte vascularisation de la membrane. Le placenta est un organe unique qui connecte physiquement et biologiquement l'embryon en développement à la paroi utérine. Durant toute la grossesse, le placenta apporte à l'embryon puis au fœtus l'eau, les nutriments et le dioxygène dont il a besoin. Il évacue aussi le dioxyde de carbone et les déchets métaboliques tels que l'urée, excrétés par l'embryon.
Environmental toxicants and fetal development
Environmental toxicants and fetal development is the impact of different toxic substances from the environment on the development of the fetus. This article deals with potential adverse effects of environmental toxicants on the prenatal development of both the embryo or fetus, as well as pregnancy complications. The human embryo or fetus is relatively susceptible to impact from adverse conditions within the mother's environment. Substandard fetal conditions often cause various degrees of developmental delays, both physical and mental, for the growing baby.
Développement prénatal
Le développement prénatal (ou développement anténatal) est l'ensemble des processus biologiques allant de la fécondation jusqu'à la naissance, durant lequel l'individu se développe. Le développement prénatal se divise en deux à trois périodes : la période germinale la période embryonnaire chez certains taxons existe une période post-embryonnaire appelée période fœtale L'individu, produit de la conception, est respectivement appelé durant ces périodes , embryon puis fœtus.

Meeting our Makers:Uncovering the cis-regulatory activity of transposable elements using statistical learning
The adaptation of organisms to their environment depends on the innovative potential inherent to genetic variation. In complex organisms such as mammals, processes like development and immunity require tight gene regulation. Complex forms emerge more often ...
EPFL2024Statistical learning quantifies transposable element-mediated cis-regulation
Didier Trono, Evaristo Jose Planet Letschert, Julien Léonard Duc, Alexandre Coudray, Julien Paul André Pontis, Delphine Yvette L Grun, Cyril David Son-Tuyên Pulver, Shaoline Sheppard
Background: Transposable elements (TEs) have colonized the genomes of most metazoans, and many TE-embedded sequences function as cis-regulatory elements (CREs) for genes involved in a wide range of biological processes from early embryo- genesis to innate ...
2023Species-specific regulation of XIST by the JPX/FTX orthologs
X chromosome inactivation (XCI) is an essential process, yet it initiates with remarkable diversity in various mammalian species. XIST, the main trigger of XCI, is controlled in the mouse by an interplay of lncRNA genes (LRGs), some of which evolved concom ...
