Copy Number Variation Disorders [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Genetic Medicine Reports, 2017
Copy number variation (CNV) disorders arise from the dosage imbalance of one or more gene(s), resulting from deletions, duplications or other genomic rearrangements that lead to the loss or gain of genetic material. Several disorders, characterized by multiple birth defects and neurodevelopmental abnormalities, have been associated with relatively ...

Mosaic copy number variation in schizophrenia [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Human Genetics, 2013
Recent reports suggest that somatic structural changes occur in the human genome, but how these genomic alterations might contribute to disease is unknown. Using samples collected as part of the International Schizophrenia Consortium (schizophrenia, n=3518; control, n=4238) recruited across multiple university research centers, we assessed single ...

A remark on copy number variation detection methods. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Copy number variations (CNVs) are gain and loss of DNA sequence of a genome. High throughput platforms such as microarrays and next generation sequencing technologies (NGS) have been applied for genome wide copy number losses.

Copy number variation in Parkinson's disease [PDF]

open access: yesGenome Medicine, 2010
A central theme of human genetic studies is to understand genomic variation and how this underlies the inherited basis of disease. Genomic variation can provide increased biological understanding of disease processes, which is necessary to develop future treatments.

Genomic copy number variation association study in Caucasian patients with nonsyndromic cryptorchidism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Copy number variation (CNV) is a potential contributing factor to many genetic diseases. Here we investigated the potential association of CNV with nonsyndromic cryptorchidism, the most common male congenital genitourinary defect, in a Caucasian ...

Copy Number Variation and Schizophrenia [PDF]

open access: yesSchizophrenia Bulletin, 2009
Over the last 12 months, a series of major articles have reported associations with schizophrenia of copy number variants at 1q21, 15q11.2, 15q13.3, 16p11.2, 22q12, and Neurexin 1 loci. These are rare high-penetrant mutations that increase risk not only of schizophrenia but also of a range of other psychiatric disorders including autism and mental ...

Copy number variation in familial Parkinson disease.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Copy number variants (CNVs) are known to cause Mendelian forms of Parkinson disease (PD), most notably in SNCA and PARK2. PARK2 has a recessive mode of inheritance; however, recent evidence demonstrates that a single CNV in PARK2 (but not a single ...

Genome-wide copy number variation study in anorectal malformations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Anorectal malformations (ARMs, congenital obstruction of the anal opening) are among the most common birth defects requiring surgical treatment (2-5/10 000 live-births) and carry significant chronic morbidity.

Copy number variation in DRC1 is the major cause of primary ciliary dyskinesia in the Japanese population

open access: yesMolecular Genetics & Genomic Medicine, 2020
Background Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a rare genetic disorder caused by functional impairment of cilia throughout the body. The involvement of copy number variation (CNV) in the development of PCD is largely unknown.
