Allele specific expression in Alzheimer's disease
Abstract INTRODUCTION Allele‐specific expression (ASE), preferential expression of one allele at a heterozygous locus, is implicated in various brain diseases but remains largely uncharacterized in Alzheimer's disease (AD). METHODS We performed a genome‐wide characterization of ASE variants across seven brain regions of 2,231 AD and Control patients ...

Phenotypic and behavioral variability within Angelman Syndrome group with UPD
The Angelman syndrome (AS) (developmental delay, mental retardation, speech impairment, ataxia, outbursts of laughter, seizures) can result either from a 15q11-q13 deletion, or from paternal uniparental disomy (UPD), imprinting, or UBE3A mutations.

CEBP and ZEB2 alterations define three distinct subtypes of B‐cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia
Abstract B‐cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B‐ALL) is a heterogeneous malignancy driven by diverse genetic alterations. Among these, CEBP family genes and ZEB2 are recurrently involved, yet the spectrum of genomic mechanisms and their clinical impact remain incompletely defined.

Background T-cell prolymphocytic leukemia is a rare aggressive lymphoproliferative disease with a mature T-cell phenotype and characteristic genomic lesions such as inv(14)(q11q34), t(14;14)(q11;q32) or t(X;14)(q28;q11), mutation of the ATM gene on ...

Analysis and visualization of chromosomal abnormalities in SNP data with SNPscan
Background A variety of diseases are caused by chromosomal abnormalities such as aneuploidies (having an abnormal number of chromosomes), microdeletions, microduplications, and uniparental disomy.

Uniparental disomy in Robertsonian translocations: strategies for uniparental disomy testing.
Robertsonian translocations (ROBs) are whole arm rearrangements involving the acrocentric chromosomes 13-15 and 21-22 and carriers are at increased risk for aneuploidy and thus uniparental disomy (UPD). Chromosomes 14 and 15 are imprinted with expression of genes dependent on the parental origin of the chromosome.

Background Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) is a genetic disorder characterized by abnormalities in the 15q11-q13 region. Understanding the correlation between genotype and phenotype in PWS is crucial for improved genetic counseling and prognosis.

We describe a stromal predominant Wilms tumor with focal anaplasia and a complex, tumor specific chromosome 11 aberration: a homozygous deletion of the entire WT1 gene within a heterozygous 11p13 deletion and an additional region of uniparental disomy ...
