Large-scale Oscillation of Structure-Related DNA Sequence Features in Human Chromosome 21
Human chromosome 21 is the only chromosome in human genome that exhibits oscillation of (G+C)-content of cycle length of hundreds kilobases (500 kb near the right telomere). We aim at establishing the existence of similar periodicity in structure-related

International, collaborative assessment of 146 000 prenatal karyotypes: expected limitations if only chromosome-specific probes and fluorescent in-situ hybridization are used [PDF]
The development of chromosome-specific probes (CSP) and fluorescent in-situ hybridization (FISH) has allowed for very rapid identification of selected numerical abnormalities.

MEIOTIC ORIGIN OF TRISOMY IN NEOPLASM: EVIDENCE IN A CASE OF ERYTROLEUKAEMIA [PDF]
Trisomic cells in neoplasms may represent abnormal clones originated from a tissue-confined mosaicism, and arise therefore by a meiotic error. We report on a 16-month-old child with erythroleukaemia (AML-M6), whose marrow karyotype at onset was 48,XX,del(

Inv21p12q22del21q22 and intellectual disability [PDF]
Chromosomal rearrangements are common in humans. Pericentric inversions are among the most frequent aberrations (1-2%). Most inversions are balanced and do not cause problems in carriers unless one of the breakpoints disrupts important functional genes ...

Retinal Dysplasia Mimicking Retinoblastoma. [PDF]
Retinal dysplasia represents a congenital disorder characterized by abnormal proliferation of retinal tissue causing leukocoria. We present a case of an infant with bilateral leukocoria, clinically diagnosed as retinoblastoma, followed by enucleation of ...

Analysis of Second Trimester Maternal Quadruple Screening Test for Trisomy 21 and Trisomy 18
Background: The second trimester quadruple screening test for foetal chromosomal abnormalities has been carried out in Slovenia since 2006. Our objective was to analyse the quadruple test results, define sensibility and specificity, the positive and ...

Characterizing primary transcriptional responses to short term heat shock in Down syndrome.
Heat shock stress induces genome-wide changes in transcription regulation, activating a coordinated cellular response to enable survival. We noticed many heat shock genes are up-regulated in blood samples from individuals with trisomy 21.
