Telomere Length in Human Polar Body and Telomere Length in Cumulus Cells: A Clinical Validation Study

NCT04577560 · Status: UNKNOWN · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 10

Last updated 2021-06-09

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

To investigate whether telomere length (TL) of the first Polar body (PB) correlates with TL in Cumulus cells (CC)

Conditions

  • Telomere Length

Interventions

GENETIC

First polar body biopsy in MII oocytes

Since PBs are by-products of the meiotic division of the oocyte and are not required for fertilization and subsequent embryo development, they can be removed to assess exclusively maternal chromosomal information without harming the embryo integrity. As previously described, PB biopsy does not impact the morphokinetic parameters of the embryo development and can be safely applied without the risk of impairing the reproductive potential of the embryo.

GENETIC

PGT-A blastocyst

preimplantation genetic screening for aneuploidies
