Contribution of rare copy number variants to isolated human malformations. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
BACKGROUND: Congenital malformations are present in approximately 2-3% of liveborn babies and 20% of stillborn fetuses. The mechanisms underlying the majority of sporadic and isolated congenital malformations are poorly understood, although it is ...

Association of Rare Copy Number Variants With Risk of Depression

open access: yesJAMA psychiatry, 2019
Key Points Question Are rare copy number variants associated with depression in a large population sample? Findings In this case-control study of 407 074 individuals in the UK Biobank study, neurodevelopmental disorder copy number variants appear to be ...

Rare copy number variants in over 100,000 European ancestry subjects reveal multiple disease associations

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Copy number variants (CNVs) are suggested to have a widespread impact on the human genome and phenotypes. To understand the role of CNVs across human diseases, we examine the CNV genomic landscape of 100,028 unrelated individuals of European ancestry ...

Copy Number Variants, Aneuploidies, and Human Disease [PDF]

open access: yesClinics in Perinatology, 2015
In the perinatal setting, chromosome imbalances cause a range of clinically significant disorders and increase the risk for other particular phenotypes. As technologies have improved to detect increasingly smaller deletions and duplications, collectively referred to as copy number variants (CNVs), clinicians are learning the significant role that these

Copy number variants, diseases and gene expression [PDF]

open access: yesHuman Molecular Genetics, 2009
Copy number variation (CNV) has recently gained considerable interest as a source of genetic variation likely to play a role in phenotypic diversity and evolution. Much effort has been put into the identification and mapping of regions that vary in copy number among seemingly normal individuals in humans and a number of model organisms, using ...

Rare germline copy number variants (CNVs) and breast cancer risk

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2022
Dennis et al. investigate potential breast cancer associations with rare germline copy number variants (CNVs) by conducting a genome-wide analysis in a large breast cancer case-control dataset.

Joint Contributions of Rare Copy Number Variants and Common SNPs to Risk for Schizophrenia.

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Psychiatry, 2019
OBJECTIVE: Both rare copy number variants (CNVs) and common single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) contribute to liability to schizophrenia, but their etiological relationship has not been fully elucidated. The authors evaluated an additive model whereby

Combined landscape of single-nucleotide variants and copy number alterations in clonal hematopoiesis

open access: yesNature Medicine, 2021
Clonal hematopoiesis (CH) in apparently healthy individuals is implicated in the development of hematological malignancies (HM) and cardiovascular diseases.

Detection of a mosaic CDKL5 deletion and inversion by optical genome mapping ends an exhaustive diagnostic odyssey

open access: yesMolecular Genetics & Genomic Medicine, 2021
Background Currently available structural variant (SV) detection methods do not span the complete spectrum of disease‐causing SVs. Optical genome mapping (OGM), an emerging technology with the potential to resolve diagnostic dilemmas, was performed to ...

Genotype-phenotype associations in children with copy number variants associated with high neuropsychiatric risk in the UK (IMAGINE-ID): a case-control cohort study.

open access: yesLancet psychiatry, 2019
BACKGROUND Several copy number variants (CNVs) are associated with a high risk of neurodevelopmental and psychiatric disorders (referred to as ND-CNVs).
