PDX1 and hyperandrogenism: Integrated analyses of methylome and transcriptome revealed differential DNA methylation of β-cell functional genes in AE-F1 sperm, which was transmitted to AE-F2 islets and further retained in AE-F2 sperm, leading to reduced expression of genes related to insulin secretion, including Pdx1, Irs1, Ptprn2, and Cacna1c. The methylation signatures in AE-F1 sperm were corroborated in diabetic humans and the blood of sons with maternal hyperandrogenism.
