Noninvasive prenatal diagnosis of fetal trisomy 18 and trisomy 13 by maternal plasma DNA sequencing. [PDF]
Massively parallel sequencing of DNA molecules in the plasma of pregnant women has been shown to allow accurate and noninvasive prenatal detection of fetal trisomy 21.

Prenatal Detection of Trisomy 2: Considerations for Genetic Counseling and Testing
We report on the case of prenatal detection of trisomy 2 in placental biopsy and further algorithm of genetic counseling and testing. A 29-year-old woman with first-trimester biochemical markers refused chorionic villus sampling and preferred targeted ...

Consequences of aneuploidy in human fibroblasts with trisomy 21
Significance An abnormal number of chromosomes or aneuploidy accounts for most spontaneous abortions, as missegregation of a single chromosome during development is often lethal.

Cell-free fetal DNA (cffDNA) has opened up new approaches for non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT), and it is often used as the second-tier test for high-risk pregnant women in detecting trisomy (T) 21, T18, and T13 after serum biochemistry screening ...

Result of Prospective Validation of the Trisomy Test® for the Detection of Chromosomal Trisomies
Noninvasive prenatal testing (NIPT) is one of the most common prenatal screening tests used worldwide. Trisomy Test® belongs to NIPT tests based on low-coverage whole-genome sequencing.

Development of a comprehensive noninvasive prenatal test
Our aim was to develop and apply a comprehensive noninvasive prenatal test (NIPT) by using high-coverage targeted next-generation sequencing to estimate fetal fraction, determine fetal sex, and detect trisomy and monogenic disease without parental ...

Prenatal Diagnosis of Umbilical Artery Aneurysm with Good Fetal Outcome and Review of Literature [PDF]
Umbilical artery aneurysm is a rare condition. Till date, 14 cases are reported and only 4 had good fetal outcome. Umbilical artery aneurysm is associated with high risk of fetal aneuploidy and fetal demise.

Non-Invasive Prenatal Testing (NIPT): Reliability, Challenges, and Future Directions
Non-invasive prenatal testing was first discovered in 1988; it was primarily thought to be able to detect common aneuploidies, such as Patau syndrome (T13), Edward Syndrome (T18), and Down syndrome (T21).

Trisomy 21 consistently activates the interferon response
Although it is clear that trisomy 21 causes Down syndrome, the molecular events acting downstream of the trisomy remain ill defined. Using complementary genomics analyses, we identified the interferon pathway as the major signaling cascade consistently ...
