The significance of trisomy 7 mosaicism in noninvasive prenatal screening

Human Genomics, 2019
Background This study was an evaluation of the role of noninvasive prenatal testing (NIPT) in the detection of trisomy 7 in prenatal diagnosis. Method A total of 35 consecutive cases underwent screening for trisomies by cell-free DNA testing between ...

Molecular delineation of small supernumerary marker chromosomes using a single nucleotide polymorphism array

Molecular Cytogenetics, 2020
Background Defining the phenotype-genotype correlation of small supernumerary marker chromosomes (sSMCs) remains a challenge in prenatal diagnosis. We karyotyped 20,481 amniotic fluid samples from pregnant women and explored the molecular characteristics

Whole exome sequencing identified a novel compound heterozygous variation in COL7A1 gene causing dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa

Molecular Genetics & Genomic Medicine, 2022
Dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (DEB) is a series of severe genetic conditions affecting skin and nails caused by mutations in the COL7A1 gene. DEB has a strong phenotypic variability.

A novel TAB2 nonsense mutation (p.S149X) causing autosomal dominant congenital heart defects: a case report of a Chinese family

BMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2020
Background TAB2 is an activator of MAP 3 K7/TAK1, which is required for the IL-1 induced signal pathway. Microdeletions encompassing TAB2 have been detected in various patients with congenital heart defects (CHD), indicating that haploinsufficiency of ...

Identification and verification of potential biomarkers in sertoli cell-only syndrome via bioinformatics analysis

Scientific Reports, 2023
Sertoli cell-only syndrome (SCOS), a severe testicular spermatogenic failure, is characterized by total absence of male germ cells. To better expand the understanding of the potential molecular mechanisms of SCOS, we used microarray datasets from the ...

C-banding and AgNOR-staining were still effective complementary methods to indentify chromosomal heteromorphisms and some structural abnormalities in prenatal diagnosis

Molecular Cytogenetics, 2019
Background In prenatal diagnosis, CMA has begun to emerge as a favorable alternative to karyotype analysis, but it could not identify balanced translocations, triploidies, inversion and heteromorphisms.

Case Report: Exome Sequencing Identified a Novel Compound Heterozygous Variation in PLOD2 Causing Bruck Syndrome Type 2

Frontiers in Genetics, 2021
Bruck Syndrome (BRKS) is a rare type of recessive osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) and consists of two subtypes, BRKS1 and BRKS2, which are caused by variations in FKBP10 and PLOD2 genes, respectively.
