Five cases with different abnormalities of chromosome 18 are described: one case with trisomy 18, two cases with ring 18, one case with partial trisomy 18q and one case with a mosaic 18p-/iso 18q. The karyotypes of the parents were normal. Cytogenetic analysis was performed on PHA stimulated blood lymphocytes. GTG, QFQ, MTX banding techniques were used. Karyotype-phenotype correlations are made. All patients present mental retardation, hypotonia and facial dismorphisms. The different degree of mental retardation and the clinical signs are in relation to the different size of deletions or trisomies of the short or long arm of chromosome 18. In the case with mosaicism 18p-/iso18q the phenotype is determined from the chromosomal abnormality more frequent in the cells (18p-). 相似文献

We report a recurrent partial monosomy of 18p10-->11.2 and proximal partial trisomy of 18q10-->21.3 caused by a maternal pericentric inversion of chromosome 18, involving breakpoints p11.2 and q21q21.3 Based on cytogenetics and FISH analysis, we speculate that the recurrent chromosome abnormality in the proband and in the fetus was the result of a translocation, possibly in a germ cell or germ cell precursor, between the maternal normal 18 and her inverted 18, resulting in maternal germinal mosaicism, i.e. 46,XX,inv(18)/46,XX,t[18;inv(18)][q10;q10]. The unbalanced karyotype of the proband and the fetus is 46,XY,+18,der[18;inv(18)][q10;q10]. To the best of our knowledge, there are no reports of this combination of proximal 18p monosomy and proximal 18q trisomy. The other interesting observation was association of Hirschsprung's disease in the proband. 相似文献

Chromosome 18 abnormalities rank among the most common autosomal anomalies with 18q being the most frequently affected. A deletion of 18q has been attributed to microcephaly, mental retardation, short stature, facial dysmorphism, myelination disorders, limb and genitourinary malformations and congenital aural atresia. On the other hand, duplications of 18q have been associated with the phenotype of Edwards syndrome. Critical chromosomal regions for both phenotypes are contentious. In this report, we describe the first case of an 11-year old male with a combined interstitial duplication 18q22.1, triplication 18q22.1q22.2 and terminal deletion 18q22.2q23 with phenotypic features of isolated 18q deletion syndrome and absence of phenotypic features characteristic of Edwards syndrome despite duplication of the suggested critical region. This report allows for reevaluation of proposed critical intervals for the phenotypes in deletion 18q syndrome and Edwards syndrome. 相似文献

We describe a girl with a mosaic isodicentric chromosome 18q with discrete features of trisomy 18. She presented with prenatal growth retardation, prominent occiput, small face, high nasal bridge, large nose, thin lips, a perimembranous ventricular septal defect, and subsequent slow psychomotor development and slow growth. Amosaic isopseudodicentric chromosome 18q was detected in cultured lymphocytes: mos 46,XX,psu idic(18)(q23)[74]/ 46,XX[26]. Monosomy of the distal end of 18q23 could not be confirmed by fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) with RP 1l-565D23, one of the most telomere located probes of 18q23. Isopseudodicentric chromosome 18q is very rare. Most cases are mosaics. The phenotype varies. More or less distinct features of trisomy 18 and monosomy 18q can be found depending on the degree of mosaicism and the breakpoint in 18q. 相似文献

De novo satellited non-acrocentric chromosomes are very rare findings in prenatal diagnosis. Here we report the first case of a de novo 18ps, associated with del(18p), detected at prenatal diagnosis. A 37 years old woman underwent Chorionic Villus Sampling (CVS) for advanced maternal age. Cytogenetic analysis on direct CVS preparation (CVSc) revealed a male karyotype with a nonfamilial satellited 18ps and a reciprocal translocation t(17;19)(P11.1;q11) of maternal origin. The mesenchimal CVS culture (CVSm) showed a mosaic of cell lines with various involvement of chromosome 18: 18ps [36/70]/ r(18) [25/70]/ del(18p) [3/70]/ -18 [6/70]. Amniotic fluid cells (AFC) confirmed the homogeneous karyotype found at CVSc. The molecular cytogenetic characterization, performed on AFC, allowed the following diagnosis: 46,XY, +15, dic(15;18)(p11.1;p11.2), t(17;19)(p11.1;q11)mat. ish dic(15;18)(tel 18p-, D15Z1+, wcp18-, wcp 18+, D18Z1+, tel 18q+). The foetal autopsy disclosed subtle facial dysmorphisms and corpus callosum hypoplasia. In case of prenatal detection of de novo terminal ectopic NORs an accurate cytogenetic and molecular analysis should be performed in order to rule out subtle unbalancements. 相似文献

Summary A 2-month-old male infant with partial trisomy 18, 46,XY,der(4),t(4;18)(q35;q21.1)mat, was presented. Except for atypical facies, he had many of the significant signs of full trisomy 18. Phenotype-karyotype correlations based on the data of our case and those from the literature were discussed. Major features of trisomy 18, such as congenital heart disease, early death, and external malformations, appear to be consistently related to the trisomic state of 18q21. Characteristic congenital heart diseases in trisomy 18 were polyvalvular disease in 100%, membranous ventricular septal defect, patent ductus arteriosus, and high take-off of the right coronary ostium. Pathology of the heart did not differ between full and partial 18-trisomy cases. 相似文献

We report a patient with a 46,XX,+der(18)t(18;21)(q12.2;q11.2)mat,-21 karyotype, in whom the rarely seen adjacent-2 segregation (according to the predicted pachytene diagram model) as well as two cross-overs, resulted in maternal isodisomy 18pter-->18q12.2. 相似文献

Summary 3 cases of the 18q — syndrome, 2 boys and 1 girl, are presented, and a comparison with data from the literature is given. The following features are typical of the syndrome: short stature, mental retardation, muscular hypotonia, a peculiar dysmorphia of the face and ears, cryptorchidism and small scrotum in males, proximally implanted thumbs, tapering fingers, excess of whorls on the fingertips, and dorsally implanted second toes. Midface hypoplasia with hypertelorism and cleft palate, as well as strabismus, were present in 2 of our patients, whereas all 3 showed nystagmus and prominence of anthelix and antitragus. In addition, 2 patients exhibited narrow ear canals and impaired hearing. One patient had coloboma of the iris and choroid, pale optic discs, and cleft lip; another had umbilical and inguinal hernias. Two cases represented de novo deletions of the long arm of chromosomes 18, whereas the karyotype of the father of the third case revealed a balanced translocation t(15;18)(q24;q21).

Die folgenden typischen Merkmale des 18q — Syndroms fanden sich bei ihnen: Kleinwuchs, Schwachsinn, muskuläre Hypotonie, Gesichts- und Ohrdysmorphie, Kryptorchismus bei den Knaben sowie zurückversetzte Daumen, konisch zulaufende Finger, Häufung von Wirbelmustern auf den Fingerbeeren und nach dorsal versetzte 2. Zehen. 2 Patienten zeigten die für das 18q — Syndrom typische Mittelgesichtsdysplasie sowie Hypertelorismus und Strabismus, hingegen wiesen alle drei Nystagmus und eine charakteristische Ohrdysmorphie mit Vortreten von Anthelix und Antitragus auf. Je 2 Patienten waren schwerhörig bzw. hatten auffallend enge Gehörgänge. Bei einem Fall fanden sich noch ein Iris- und Chorioideakolobom, Opticusatrophie und eine Lippenspatle, bei einem anderen eine Nabel- und Leistenhernie. Bei 2 Patienten war die Deletion des langen Arms von Chromosome 18 neu entstanden, bei einem war der Vater Träger einer balancierten Translokation t(15;18)(q24;q21).相似文献

The 18q deletion syndrome can be caused by several terminal and interstitial deletions of which terminal deletions of the distal part of 18q are the most frequent and known as the DeCroughy syndrome. The neuropsychiatric phenotype is not well documented and includes disorganised and disinhibited behaviours as well as language difficulties. Non development of language seems to be specific for cases with a more proximally located interstitial deletions. In the present paper a 18-year-old severely mentally retarded male with an interstitial deletion of 18q is described (46.XY,del(18)(q12.1q22.1) who was referred for behavioural problems and neuropsychiatric evaluation. No categorical psychiatric diagnosis could be established. Given this and other reports, it is advocated to describe the psychopathological phenotype of 18q deletions in a dimensional way that will result in a clinical picture characterised mainly by symptoms from the motor and motivation domains. Treatment should include primarily behavioural measures, combined if necessary with symptomatic psychopharmacotherapy. 相似文献

Summary This paper describes a case of partial trisomy of almost the entire long arm of chromosome 18 in a newborn with classic trisomy-18 phenotype, resulting from a de novo unbalanced 18q/21p translocation: karyotype: 46,XX,-21,t(18;21)(18qter18q11::21p1221qter). A review of the other reported cases of partial trisomy 18 suggests that a critical segment in chromosome 18, corresponding to bands q11-q12, might be responsible for most of the signs of trisomy 18, including failure to thrive and early death. 相似文献

In an effort to identify regions on chromosome 18 that may be critical in the appearance of the Edwards syndrome phenotype, we have analyzed six patients with partial duplication of chromosome 18. Four of the patients have duplications involving the distal half of 18q (18q21.1-qter) and are very mildly affected. The remaining two patients have most of 18q (18q12.1-qter) duplicated, are severely affected, and have been diagnosed with Edwards syndrome. We have employed FISH, using DNA probes from a chromosome 18-specific library, for the precise determination of the duplicated material in each of these patients. The clinical features and the extent of the chromosomal duplication in these patients were compared with four previously reported partial trisomy 18 patients, to identify regions of chromosome 18 that may be responsible for certain clinical features of trisomy 18. The comparative analysis confirmed that there is no single region on 18q that is sufficient to produce the trisomy 18 phenotype and identified two regions on 18q that may work in conjunction to produce the Edwards syndrome phenotype. In addition, correlative analysis indicates that duplication of 18q12.3-q22.1 may be associated with more severe mental retardation in trisomy 18 individuals. 相似文献

AIMS: Patients with isochromosome 18 [i(18q)] have features of both trisomy 18 and deletion of 18p [del(18p)] syndromes. Although, hypopituitarism has been reported in patients with del(18p) syndrome, it has not been described in patients with i(18q) syndrome previously. We describe a case with i(18q)/del(18p) mosaicism associated with a novel finding of hypopituitarism. METHODS: Clinical characteristics of the patient have been discussed in the light of the literature. RESULTS: The patient had dysmorphic findings that are predominantly seen in del(18p) syndrome such as low nasal bridge, wide mouth, large ears, high forehead, hypopigmentation, upturned nostrils and hypopituitarism (TSH, ACTH, and GH deficiencies, and pituitary hypoplasia on magnetic resonance imaging). In addition, she also had upturning of upper lip and seizures, which are features of trisomy 18 syndrome. CONCLUSIONS: In agreement with the previous clinical reports, this case further supports the presence of a factor, which is involved in pituitary development and/or function, on the short arm of chromosome 18. 相似文献

The 18q- syndrome is a deletion syndrome that is characterized by mental retardation, hearing loss, midfacial hypoplasia, growth deficiency, and limb anomalies. Most patients with this syndrome have deletions from 18q21-qter. We report on three patients with deletions of 18q23. A mother and daughter with identical deletions of 18q23 have many of the typical features of the 18q- syndrome, including midfacial hypoplasia and hearing loss. In contrast, the third patient has few of the symptoms of the 18q- syndrome. A contig of the 18q23 region was generated to aid in the mapping of the breakpoints. FISH was used to map both breakpoints to the same YAC clone. Furthermore, somatic-cell hybrids from the daughter and the third patient were isolated. The mapping results of sequence-tagged sites relative to the two breakpoints were identical, suggesting that the two deletion breakpoints map very close to one another. The analyses of these patients demonstrate that the critical region for the 18q- syndrome maps to 18q23 but that a deletion of 18q23 does not always lead to the clinical features associated with the syndrome. These patients demonstrate the wide phenotypic variability associated with deletions of 18q. 相似文献

Summary Partial 18q12 trisomy, due to intrachromosomal duplication, was found in a severely mentally retarded boy. The finding of nonspecific dysmorphism in this patient demonstrates that trisomy of band 18q12 is accompanied by neither a full nor an incomplete 18 trisomy phenotype, indicating that this phenotype may be due solely to trisomy of the 18q11 band. 相似文献

An infant with a partial trisomy 18(pter yields q11:) is described. The patient's phenotype consists of many features of complete trisomy 18. The findings are compared with those from similar cases reported in the literature permitting to conclude that 18q121-q122 segment is the "critical" zone which when trisomic, causes the severe stigmata (inner organ malformations and early death) of the complete trisomy 18. 相似文献

Kif18a regulates Sirt2-mediated tubulin acetylation for spindle organization during mouse oocyte meiosis 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Background
During oocyte meiosis, the cytoskeleton dynamics, especially spindle organization, are critical for chromosome congression and segregation. However, the roles of the kinesin superfamily in this process are still largely unknown.Results
In the present study, Kif18a, a member of the kinesin-8 family, regulated spindle organization through its effects on tubulin acetylation in mouse oocyte meiosis. Our results showed that Kif18a is expressed and mainly localized in the spindle region. Knock down of Kif18a caused the failure of first polar body extrusion, dramatically affecting spindle organization and resulting in severe chromosome misalignment. Further analysis showed that the disruption of Kif18a caused an increase in acetylated tubulin level, which might be the reason for the spindle organization defects after Kif18a knock down in oocyte meiosis, and the decreased expression of deacetylase Sirt2 was found after Kif18a knock down. Moreover, microinjections of tubulin K40R mRNA, which could induce tubulin deacetylation, protected the oocytes from the effects of Kif18a downregulation, resulting in normal spindle morphology in Kif18a-knock down oocytes.Conclusions
Taken together, our results showed that Kif18a affected Sirt2-mediated tubulin acetylation level for spindle organization during mouse oocyte meiosis. Our results not only revealed the critical effect of Kif18a on microtubule stability, but also extended our understanding of kinesin activity in meiosis.19.

We report a 10-years-old female patient with a partial trisomy 18q and monosomy 11q due to a maternal translocation. The phenotype of our proband is partially common with Jacobsen syndrome and duplication 18q but she has also some atypical anomalies such as precocious puberty, a retinal albinism and hypermetropia. Based on cytogenetics and FISH analysis, the karyotype of the proband was 46,XX,der(11)t(11;18)(q24;q13). To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of precocious puberty associated with either dup(18q) or del(11q) syndromes. 相似文献
