DNA methylation patterns of imprinting centers for H19, SNRPN, and KCNQ1OT1 in single-cell clones of human amniotic fluid mesenchymal stem cell

Objective: To test the hypothesis that human amniotic fluid mesenchymal stem cells contain a unique epigenetic signature in imprinting centers of H19, SNRPN, and KCNQ1OT1 during in vitro cell culture. Materials and Methods: By bisulfite genomic sequencing, we analyzed the imprinting centers of three...
