SUMMARY:Preimplantation Alcohol Exposure: Lasting Epigenomic\, Transcriptomic and Brain Effects
DESCRIPTION:Speaker\nDr. Serge McGraw\nDept. of Obstetrics and Gynecology in the Azrieli Research Center\, Université de Montréal \nTopic\nPreimplantation Alcohol Exposure: Lasting Epigenomic\, Transcriptomic and Brain Effects\nPrenatal alcohol exposure (PAE) can shape long-term health and cause Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD). The effects of PAE during the preimplantation period are poorly understood. Using a mouse model with a single binge-like exposure at the 8-cell stage (E2.5)\, we investigated consequences for brain and placental development. \nEarly exposure produced growth delays and brain malformations\, with widespread DNA methylation and transcriptomic changes in the embryonic forebrain. Key neurodevelopmental genes\, including Arx\, Dlx2\, Lhx6 and Sox6\, were dysregulated\, correlating with delayed migration of GABAergic interneurons and long-term behavioral deficits.  Analyses of late-gestation placentas revealed epigenetic and transcriptional dysregulation in genes involved in growth regulation and serotonin transport. Using machine learning\, placental DNA methylation profiles accurately distinguished alcohol-exposed embryos from controls. \nTogether\, these results reveal early epigenetic origins of FASD and thus support placental methylation signatures as a molecular tool for detecting prenatal alcohol exposure at birth and improving early diagnosis. \nLearning Objectives\nBy the end of this session\, participants will be able to: \n\nExplain how alcohol exposure during the preimplantation period impacts early embryonic and brain development.\nDiscuss how early preimplantation alcohol exposure results in lasting epigenetic and transcriptomic alterations during brain development.\nConnect these altered epigenetic and transcriptomic changes to abnormal GABAergic migration and behavioral outcomes.\n\nDetails\nNovember 26\, 2025\n9:00 AM in BMSB341
