Preimplantation Genetic Testing for Single Gene Conditions and Aneuploidy
It is now over 30 years since the first pregnancies and live births following IVF, embryo biopsy and preimplantation genetic testing (PGT) were reported in 1990. Since then, methods for genetic analysis at the single-cell level have evolved alongside the

Preimplantation Genetic Testing for Monogenic Disorders [PDF]
Preimplantation genetic testing (PGT) has evolved into a well-established alternative to invasive prenatal diagnosis, even though genetic testing of single or few cells is quite challenging. PGT-M is in theory available for any monogenic disorder for which the disease-causing locus has been unequivocally identified. In practice, the list of indications

Preimplantation Genetic Testing: Indications and Controversies [PDF]
In the last two decades, the use of preimplantation genetic testing has increased dramatically. This testing is used for identifying singlegene disorders, chromosomal abnormalities, mitochondrial disorders, gender selection in non-mendelian disorders with unequal gender distribution, aneuploidy screening, and other preconceptually identified genetic ...

Preimplantation Genetic Testing for Monogenic Kidney Disease [PDF]
Background and objectives A genetic cause can be identified for an increasing number of pediatric and adult-onset kidney diseases. Preimplantation genetic testing (formerly known as preimplantation genetic diagnostics) is a reproductive technology that helps prospective parents to prevent passing on (a) disease-causing mutation(

Preimplantation genetic testing for Marfan syndrome [PDF]
Marfan syndrome (MFS) is an autosomal dominant disease that affects the skeletal, ocular and cardiovascular systems. Defects in the gene that codes for fibrillin (FBN-1) are responsible for MFS. Here we report the world's first use of preimplantation genetic testing (PGT) to achieve a clinical pregnancy and live birth of a baby free of a Marfan ...
