A case of placental trisomy 18 mosaicism causing a false negative NIPT result

open access: yesMolecular Cytogenetics, 2017
Background The non-invasive prenatal testing that evaluates circulating cell free DNA, and has been established as an additional pregnancy test for detecting the common fetal trisomies 21, 18 and 13 is rapidly revolutionizing prenatal screening as a ...

De novo balanced reciprocal translocation mosaic t(1;3)(q42;q25) detected by prenatal genetic diagnosis: a fetus conceived using preimplantation genetic testing due to a t(12;14)(q22;q13) balanced paternal reciprocal translocation

open access: yesMolecular Cytogenetics, 2021
Introduction De novo balanced reciprocal translocations mosaicism in fetus conceived using preimplantation genetic testing from a different balanced translocation carrier parent has been rarely reported. Methods Chromosomal microarray analysis, karyotype

The significance of trisomy 7 mosaicism in noninvasive prenatal screening

open access: yesHuman 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

open access: yesMolecular 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

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

open access: yesBMC 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

open access: yesScientific 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 ...
