In this case report we present a child with an additional chromosome in the karyotype. The karyotypes of the boy and his parents were analyzed by use of a conventional banding technique (GTG) and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). Probes painting whole chromosomes 12 and 18 were used in FISH. Cytogenetic examination of the parents revealed that his mother was carrying balanced reciprocal translocation between chromosomes 12 and 18. Her karyotype was described as 46,XX,t(12;18)(p13;q12). Father's karyotype was normal, described as 46,XY. The boy's karyotype was defined as 47,XY,+der(18)t(12;18)(p13;q12). The additional chromosome appeared probably due to 3:1 meiotic disjunction of the maternal balanced translocation, known as tertiary trisomy. The mother displayed a normal phenotype and delivered earlier a healthy child. However, the boy with the unbalanced karyotype shows multiple congenital abnormalities.  相似文献

We describe a five-year-old proband presented with Dandy-Walker malformations, right microopthalmia, hamstring contractures, undescended testis with absence of testis in right scrotum in addition to typical trisomy 9p clinical features. Routine cytogenetic studies with GTG - banding showed 46,XY,der(12)t(9;12) (p12;q13.3),mat karyotype (trisomy 9p). Chromosomal analysis of the father was normal and phenotypically normal mother had 46,XX,t(9;12)(p12;q13) karyotype. Fluorescence in situ hybridization analysis with single copy probes bA5OIA2 (9p11.2), bA562M8 (12p12.1) and centromere probes (9) showed break point at 9p12.1 region. The gene dosage effect of Chromosome 9p along with environmental factors might be associated with Dandy- Walker malformations in the patient.  相似文献

Summary On routine chromosome analysis a moderately retarded 18-year old man was found to have an unusual short arm on one chromosome 14. With GTL-banding this chromosome showed an enlarged short arm with no evident secondary constriction. Negative CBG-banding of the short arm suggested the possibility of a translocation involving euchromatin. Interpretation of the abnormality as an unbalanced translocation relied on chromosome analysis using GTL-, CBG-, and Ag-NOR-banding of the proband's phenotypically normal mother, who was found to be carrying a balanced translocation involving chromosomes 8 and 14. In situ hybridization of sequences known to map to the short arm of chromosome 14 confirmed the interpretation and established that the breakpoint was within p11. The patient, whose karyotype is 46,XY,-14,+der(14)t(8;14)(q24.1;p11), is trisomic for the terminal end of the long arm of chromosome 8. The patient's clinical features are described and compared with those reported in patients trisomie for this region. This study demonstrates the importance of using a number of different banding techniques in conjunction with in situ hybridization for the investigation of morphologically unusual acrocentric short arm variants seen at routine diagnosis.  相似文献

Summary Recombinant plasmid clone B74 (also named D18S3) containing a human single-copy DNA segment of 6 kilobases (kb) was localized by in situ hybridization on band p113 of chromosome 18. This probe was then used in cytogenetic diagnosis to identify precisely a small supernumerary chromosome as an isochromosome i(18p).  相似文献

Until recently, presence of de novo marker or derivative chromosomes was quite problematic for genetic counseling especially in prenatal diagnosis, because characterization of marker and derivative chromosomes by conventional cytogenetic techniques was nearly impossible. However, recently developed molecular cytogenetic technique named Multicolor Fluorescence in Situ Hybridization (M-FISH) which paints all human chromosomes in 24 different colors allows us to characterize marker and derivative chromosomes in a single hybridization. In this study, we applied M-FISH to determine the origin of 3 marker and 3 derivative chromosomes. Marker chromosomes were found to originate from chromosome 15 in two postnatal and one prenatal case. Of these, one of the postnatal cases displayed clinical findings of inv dup (115) syndrome and the other of infertility, and the prenatal case went through amniocentesis due to the triple test results. Karyotypes of the patients with derivative chromosomes were designated as 46,XY,der (21)t(1;21)(q32;p11), 46,XX,der(8)t(8;9)(p23;p22) and 46,XX,der(18)t(18;20)(q32;p11.2) according to cytogenetic and M-FISH studies. All of the M-FISH results were confirmed with locus specific or whole chromosome painting probes. The case with der (8)t(8;9) had trisomy 9(p22-pter) and monosomy 8(p23-pter) due to this derivative chromosome. The case with der(18)t(18;20) had trisomy 20(p11.2-pter) and monosomy 18(q32-qter). Parental origins of the derivative chromosomes were analyzed using microsatellite markers located in the trisomic chromosomal segments. Patients' clinical findings were compared with the literature.  相似文献

Ring chromosome 15 [r(15)] is an uncommon finding with less than 50 patients reported. Precise genotype–phenotype correlations are problematic because of the difficulties in determining the extent of euchromatic loss, the level of mosaicism, and the influence of the timing of ascertainment. We report two discordant examples of r(15) patients. In the first case, prenatal diagnosis of a de novo r(15) was made during the second trimester: mos 46,XX,r(15)(p11.2q26)[32]/45,XX,-15[13]/47,XX,r(15)(p11.2q26)x2[3]/46,XX,dic r(15)(p11.2q26p11.2q26[1]/46,XX[2]. Postnatal follow-up revealed extremely small stature, heart defects, and developmental delay. Patient 2 was a 31-year-old short-statured female who was living independently: 46,XX,r(15)(p11q26). Both cases showed loss of the 15q subtelomeric region by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). To investigate the discordance in phenotypes between the two patients, we undertook array comparative genomic hybridization (array CGH) analyses to more fully characterize the deletions associated with these otherwise structurally indistinguishable r(15) chromosomes from conventional cytogenetic analyses and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) studies. By array CGH, patient 1 showed deletion of multiple contiguous clones predicting an approximately 6 Mb deletion of distal 15q. In contrast, patient 2 showed loss of just the 15q subtelomeric clone and an interstitial clone by array CGH confirming that the severity of the phenotype correlated with the size of the deletion at the molecular level. These cases illustrate the utility of array CGH characterization for determining the size of the associated deletion in ring chromosomes and for facilitating phenotype–genotype correlations.  相似文献

Summary Lymphoblastoid cell lines established from two individuals with apparently balanced translocations involving 11p13 were used for LDHA regional localization. The karyotypes were 46,XY,t(4;11)(q21;p13) and 46,XY,t(1;11) (p22;p13). In situ hybridization of a human LDHA cDNA probe to chromosome preparations from these cell lines resulted in specific labeling over bands p14p15 of the normal chromosomes 11 and over bands 11p1411p15 of the derivative chromosomes 4 and 1. These results exclude LDHA from any region proximal to 11p13 and localize the gene to 11p1411p15.  相似文献

Summary Chromosome preparations from seven subjects with aberrations of sex chromosomes were utilized for in situ hybridization studies with the tritium-labeled Y-derived probe p50f. Two subjects had a pseudodicentric chromosome consisting of two copies of Yp and a portion of Y long arm; two were XX males [46,XX,t(Xp;Yp)], one was missing part of the Y short arm, and another had t(5p;Yq); in addition cells from an XYY male as well as a normal 46,XY male, and a 46,XX female, were hybridized with the same probe. The hybridization technique of Harper and Saunders (1981) was used. There was excess labeling of the Yp/paracentromeric regions in the cases with the normal Y, the XYY, the pseudodicentric Y, and the 5/Y translocation. No significant label was seen on metaphases from the normal 46,XX female or the female with the partially missing Y short arm. Excess label was present on the X short arm in the cases of the XX males; there were 8% and 9.5% of cells with label. The combined cytogenetic and hybridization data indicate that one X short arm in these XX males has undergone a translocation with Yp, and that genes for sex determination probably reside on the distal half of the Y short arm.  相似文献

Summary We have used a recombinant DNA clone derived from the Y-specific 3,4-kb repeats for in situ chromosome hybridization and Southern blotting analysis to identify a case of de novo Y;18 translocation. The proband has a chromosome complement of 46,XY and a variant chromosome 18 with a Q-bright and C-positive short arm. The father has a normal male karyotype of 46,XY. The mother has a female karyotype of 46,XX and an unusually large Q-bright satellite on one chromosome 22. In situ hybridization with the 3,4-kb probe to the metaphase preparations of family members indicated that the additional Q-bright material in the proband's variant chromosome 18 derived from the Y chromosome of his father, and not from the variant chromosome 22 of his mother. On Southern hybridization, the proband had approximately twice the amount of 3,4-kb repeats per cell as his father. These observations suggest a de novo genetic rearrangement in the proband which probably occurred during the father's spermatogenesis.  相似文献

Localization of the gene for acetyl-CoA carboxylase to human chromosome 17   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
In situ hybridization was used to localize a cDNA probe of the acetyl-CoA carboxylase gene to human metaphase chromosomes. A significant proportion of the grains were situated over chromosome band 17q21. In situ hybridization to a t(6;17)(p25;q21.33) confirmed the location of the gene proximal to 17q21.33.  相似文献

A rare case of monosomy 18p with molecular cytogenetic characterization of 18;21 whole arm translocation is presented. An 8-year-old gril with mental deficiency and growth deficiency was the child of a 45-year-old healthy mother and 50-year-old nonconsanguineous father with unremarkable prenatal history. She had a round face, flat nasal bridge, micrognathia and hypotonia. Cytogenetic studies revealed de novo 45,XX,del(18)t(18;21) karyotype, which was confirmed by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH).  相似文献

Using a combination of banding techniques, we examined two atypical 21;22 translocations, 46,XX or XY,t(21;22)(p11;q11). In situ chromosomal hybridization of a probe for the constant region of the lambda light chain locus demonstrated that the 22q11 breakpoints of both rearrangements were proximal to the C lambda gene cluster. These studies permitted us to distinguish the 22q11 breakpoints of these translocations from the breakpoint of the 22q--chromosome of chronic myelogenous leukemia.  相似文献

In this report, we present examples of trisomy 18 and trisomy 21, both resulting from maternal reciprocal translocations: 46, XX, t(5;18) (q21;q11) and 46, XX, t(5;21) (p11.2;p11), respectively.  相似文献

The role of balanced translocations in the human morphogenesis is difficult to interpret. A balanced reciprocal translocation (BRT) was observed in a female child referred with a history of regression of milestones. The cytogenetic findings by GTG-banding and fluorescence in situ hybridization revealed a BRT involving chromosomes 11p and 21q, i.e. 46,XX, t(11;21)(p13;q22). The father was found to be a carrier of the same BRT. This is the first report of reciprocal translocation involving 11p and 21q. The possible reasons for the manifestation of clinical features in the proband due to inherited BRT are discussed.  相似文献

. The oocytes of a 17 week human fetus carrying an unbalanced 46,XX,add(18)(p13) translocation were studied with a sequential combination of microspreading, immunocytogenetics, fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and transmission electron microscopy. This combination of technologies allowed the collection of data of unique accuracy and resolution. The translocated chromosome was found to be involved in five different synaptic configurations. A consistent feature of these configurations was the involvement of a second small bivalent, presumably chromosome 21 or 22, the normal synapsis of which was often disrupted. We conclude that chromosome 21 or 22 was the source of the translocated material, which was found to be either homologously triply synapsed, heterologously synapsed or asynapsed.

Localization of the beta-globin gene by chromosomal in situ hybridization   总被引:23,自引:9,他引:14  
A 3.7-kilobase (kb) genomic clone of the human beta-globin gene, including 1.5-kb upstream and approximately 0.5-kb downstream, was utilized in chromosomal in situ hybridization for precise mapping of the beta-globin locus on peripheral blood lymphocyte-derived metaphases from a normal male, and for further evaluation of a clonal t(7;11) (q22;p15) translocation on bone marrow-derived metaphases from a 46-year-old male with erythroleukemia. Analyses of 205 midmetaphases from a normal male hybridized with the tritium-labeled beta-globin probe and stained with quinacrine mustard dihydrochloride revealed approximately 12% of spreads to have silver-grain deposition over the p15 band of chromosome 11. Of the 365 silver grains observed to be located on or beside chromosomes, 25 (approximately 7%) grains were localized in band p15. Karyotype analysis of a bone marrow specimen from the patient with erythroleukemia revealed hypodiploidy with various unidentified marker chromosomes as well as a presumably balanced translocation between 7q and 11p . Chromosomal in situ hybridization showed localization of silver grains at the junction between chromosomes 7 and 11 as well as to the normal chromosome 11, indicating that the beta-globin locus had not been translocated in the chromosomal rearrangement. This case demonstrates the value of chromosomal in situ hybridization in the definition of chromosome rearrangements and provides further evidence for the localization of the beta-globin gene to 11p15 .  相似文献

Human papillomavirus (HPV) is believed to promote the oncogenic process, and the correlation between viral oncoproteins and dysfunction of p16(INK4A) tumor suppressor protein in oral lesions is controversial. To test the hypothesis that anogenital HPV types participate in disruption of the regulation of p16(INK4A) suppressor protein in oral lesions, we analyzed 46 oral biopsy specimens for the presence of HPV 6/11 and 16/18 by in situ hybridization (ISH) and for p16(INK4A) expression by immunohistochemistry (IHC). Eighteen (39%) of the 46 oral lesions were HPV-positive and 28 (61%) were HPV-negative. HPV 6/11 DNA was found in 5 (11%) and HPV 16/18 in 13 (28%) of 46 biopsies. Nine of the 18 HPV-positive oral lesions (50%), assessed by catalyzed signal amplification coupled to ISH (CSA-ISH), gave high-intensity p16(INK4A) immunostaining. Focal and diffuse patterns were observed in 11/13 (77%) lesions with HPV 16/18, focal immunopositivity in 3/5 (80%) with HPV 6/11, and negative or sporadic p16-labeling in 18/28 (64%) without the presence of HPV DNA. These results showed a strong association between overexpression of p16 protein and malignant oral lesions, mainly those infected by HPV 16/18. We can conclude that high-risk HPV types are associated with p16 overexpression, and p16 may serve as a biomarker in oral cancer related to high-risk HPV infection.  相似文献

Nine cases are described of tetrasomy 18p resulting from the presence of an isochromosome 18p [i(18p)]. The initial diagnosis of i(18p) was by standard cytogenetic techniques and was confirmed by in situ hybridization with a biotinylated alphoid probe (L1.84) specific for the pericentric region of chromosome 18 and with a tritium-labeled chromosome 18 probe (B74) which hybridizes to the D18S3 locus situated at 18p11.3. The clinical features of the cases are summarized and shown to constitute a distinct and recognizable syndrome. Common features were low birth weight, a characteristic facies, neonatal hypotonia with subsequent limb spasticity, short stature, microcephaly, mental retardation, and seizure disorders. On the basis of size and cytogenetic banding a marker chromosome can be suspected to be an i(18p). In situ hybridization with the alphoid probe L1.84 provides confirmation of chromosome 18 origin. This more precise diagnosis will be an advantage in situations of pre- and postnatal diagnosis, since parents can be provided with a more confident prognosis for their child.  相似文献

为了确定两例细胞遗传学提示染色体结构异常的核型,应用通过显微切割技 术构建的人类18号和7号染色体探针池,分别对这两例病例的中期分裂相进行染色体涂染,结合显带染色体,确定两者核型分别为46,XY,t(3;18) (q12;q21)和46,XX,dir ins(1;7)(p3104;q34q36)。染色体涂染技术是染色体显带技术的重要补充和发展,为染色体结构异常提供了一种直观、准确的检测手段,在遗传咨询和产前诊断方面有重要作用。 Abstract:In this study,chromosome painting technique was performed to analyse the abnormal karyotypes of two carriers.Chromosome 18 and 7 specific libraries,which were generated by chromosome microdissection technique,were used as probe pools to hybridize the carriers metaphase chromosomes respectively.Unlabled human genomic DNA was used to inhibit the hybridization of sequences in the library that bind to mutiple chromosomes.Structure abnormality was detected clearly in metaphase.Combined with the banding chromosomes,we concluded that their karytypes were 46,XY,t(3;18)(q12;q21)and 46,XX,dir ins(1;7)(p3104;q34q36).Chromosome painting,as a direct and concise method in analysing chromosome structure abnormality,is an important complement and development of chromosome banding technique,and has important application in genetic counselling and prenatal diagnosis.  相似文献

We report a female infant with a karyotype of 46,XX,der(9)t(9;18)(p22.2;q21.32)pat and the phenotypic features of craniofacial dysmorphisms, developmental delay, hypotonia, horizontal nystagmus, strabismus, congenital heart defects, clubfoot, and anorectal malformations with an anterior ectopic anus and a stenosed anal opening. Array comparative genomic hybridization revealed a 16.93-Mb deletion at 9p24.3-p22.2 encompassing the FREM1 gene and a 20.43-Mb duplication at 18q21.32-q23 encompassing the PIGN gene. We speculate that dual genome imbalances in FREMI at 9p22.3 and in PIGN at 18q21.3 are most likely responsible for the abnormal development of anorectum in this patient.  相似文献
