Copy number variations associated with fetal congenital kidney malformations
Background Congenital anomalies of the kidney and urinary tract (CAKUT) constitute 20–30% of all congenital malformations. Within the CAKUT phenotypic spectrum, renal hypodysplasia (RHD) is particularly severe.

Copy number, linkage disequilibrium and disease association in the FCGR locus [PDF]
The response of a leukocyte to immune complexes (ICs) is modulated by receptors for the Fc region of IgG (FcgammaRs), and alterations in their affinity or function have been associated with risk of autoimmune diseases, including systemic lupus ...

Copy number variations (CNVs) identified in Korean individuals
Background Copy number variations (CNVs) are deletions, insertions, duplications, and more complex variations ranging from 1 kb to sub-microscopic sizes.

Genome-wide identification of copy number variations in Chinese Holstein. [PDF]
Recent studies of mammalian genomes have uncovered the vast extent of copy number variations (CNVs) that contribute to phenotypic diversity. Compared to SNP, a CNV can cover a wider chromosome region, which may potentially incur substantial sequence ...

Copy number variants and selective sweeps in natural populations of the house mouse (Mus musculus domesticus) [PDF]
Copy–number variants (CNVs) may play an important role in early adaptations, potentially facilitating rapid divergence of populations. We describe an approach to study this question by investigating CNVs present in natural populations of mice in the ...

Copy Number Variation Disorders [PDF]
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 ...

Including copy number variation in association studies to predict genotypic values [PDF]
The objective of this study was to investigate, both empirically and deterministically, the ability to explain genetic variation resulting from a copy number polymorphism (CNP) by including the CNP, either by its genotype or by a continuous derivation ...

Case report: Fetal cervical immature teratoma and copy number variations
Fetal cervical teratoma is a rare congenital neck tumor. Here, we report a case of a fetus with an anterior solid neck tumor that was confirmed to have an immature teratoma by histology. A duplication was found at chromosome 14q24.1-q24.3 of the fetus in
