Abstract Carrier screening for genetic conditions performed preconception or during pregnancy allows identification of fetal risk for inherited autosomal recessive and X‐linked conditions. The goal is to identify at‐risk patients/couples and offer them reproductive options such as preimplantation genetic diagnosis, prenatal testing, or targeted newborn

A diameter‐guided workflow was established to define the appropriate trophectoderm (TE) biopsy area window for bovine blastocysts, with the aim of balancing embryo viability and genotyping reliability. After TE biopsy, sampled cells were subjected to DNA amplification and genomic evaluation, while the corresponding biopsied embryos were transferred to ...

A review of evidence on non-invasive prenatal diagnosis (NIPD) : tests for fetal RHD genotype [PDF]
This report concentrates on three main areas. First and foremost, we set the background context for RhD NIPD in prenatal care. While the methodology chapter describes how the literature review was carried out and how additional information was collected,

Preimplantation diagnosis for immunodeficiencies
Preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) has become an established procedure for the detection of single gene disorders, and has recently been performed together with human leukocyte antigen (HLA) typing for couples with children affected by genetic disorders that require HLA-identical stem cell transplantation therapy. For these couples, PGD can ensure

Gene-Targeted Next Generation Sequencing Identifies PNPLA1 Mutations in Patients with a Phenotypic Spectrum of Autosomal Recessive Congenital Ichthyosis: The Impact of Consanguinity [PDF]
Heritable forms of ichthyoses, also referred to as generalized Mendelian disorders of cornification, are phenotypically a highly heterogeneous group of conditions caused by mutations in a number of genes playing a role in keratinocyte differentiation ...

Preimplantation diagnosis for neurofibromatosis
Preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) has recently been performed for inherited cancer predisposition determined by p53 tumour suppressor gene mutations, suggesting the usefulness of PGD for late onset disorders with genetic predisposition, including those caused by the germline mutations of other tumour suppressor genes.
