A new chromosome banding technique, distamycin A plus DAPI, has been used to reexamine cases of presumed Y/autosome translocations. In contrast with the results obtained with quinacrine fluorescence (Q-banding), the satellites of acrocentric chromosomes do not fluoresce brightly with this new (DA-DAPI) method, making it more specific for the long arm of the Y chromosome. Previous cases with intensely Q-fluorescent and abnormally long short arms on a chromosome 22 were considered as presumptive 22/Y translocations: The new technique clearly shows that, in these cases, the additional material on 22p is not derived from Yq. In contrast, in other cases the Yq nature of additional material on 15p, in conjunction with the presence of an extra Y-body in interphase nuclei and the presence of a male-specific DNA, supports the previous diagnosis of a presumptive 15/Y translocation. 相似文献

Summary A case of complete trisomy 22 in live-born female child with multiple malformations is reported. The karyotype of the index patient had 46 chromosomes, with one chromosome 22 missing and one supranumerary metacentric chromosome. Different banding methods and in situ hybridization revealed that the extra chromosome consists of the long arms and a part of the short arms of two chromosomes 22. Our report supplies further proof that a fetus with complete trisomy 22 can occasionally survive to term, but the condition is not compatible with life over a long period. 相似文献

We report a 5 1/2-year-old girl whose clinical symptoms are consistent with diagnosis of the cat-eye syndrome. The prominent symptoms are: anal stenosis, preauricular tags and pits, coloboma of the iris, doubling of the pelvis and ureter on both sides, vesicourethral reflux on the right side and normal mental development. Leucocyte alkaline phosphatase is normal. Chromosomal analysis shows a supernumerary submetacentric chromosome. This extra chromosome is smaller than the G-group chromosomes and has satellites on the short and long arms. Autoradiography after 3H-thymidine incorporation shows a late-labeling marker chromosome. After using the Giemsa-banding technique, the chromatides demonstrate dark bandings with only soft, unstained satellites. With the fluorescence method, one can see spotlike fluorescence of the satellites on both arms and diffuse fluorescence of the hetero-chromatic segments. In addition, the C-bandings demonstrate a homogeneous dark staining of the chromatids, but we did not find stained satellites. Using the Giemsa-11 technique one can see the 47th chromosome with predominantly heterochromatic parts, but small euchromatic segments are visible between them. Satellites are unstained. Using currently accepted cytogenetical methods, it is not possible to identify the origin of this supernumerary marker chromosome. 相似文献

Karyotyping revealed three cell lines in a boy with mental retardation and few other abnormalities. Thirty cells exhibited a normal karyotype, and 54 had an extra acrocentric chromosome of E group size with satellites on the long and short arms. The remaining 20 cells each had, in addition to the first marker (M1), a second tiny bisatellited chromosome (M2). C-banding demonstrated that both markers were dicentric. G-, C-, and Q-banding and satellite association data were consistent with the markers having originated from chromosome 15 material. We propose that M1 was formed from a meiotic breakage and a chromatid fusion in the proximal long arms of an acrocentric pair. This would have produced a symmetrical isodicentric chromosomes, plus one or two acentric fragments. M2 then could have resulted from a dicentric bridge-break-synthesis-reunion phenomenon. This model of abnormal meiotic exchange can be generalized to encompass the formation of other dicentric isochromosome cases of isochromosome X. 相似文献

Summary A small accessory chromosome was detected in amniocytes and maternal lymphocytes and identified as an inversion duplication of the short arms of two chromosomes 15. This is the first time that complete identification of this extra chromosome has been possible prenatally. The variant chromosome was not associated with clinical abnormalities. 相似文献

A mentally retarded child with an extra small bisatellited acrocentric chromosome is described. The patient exhibited rather unspecific clinical signs such as strabismus, marked facial asymmetry, broad and prominent nasal bridge, hypertelorism, Brushfield's spots, malformed ears with atresia of the external auditory canal on the right side. Giemsa banding (R and G methods) did not allow a clear cytogenetic identification of the extra-chromosome. A tentative interpretation of the cytogenetic aberration as a trisomy of the proximal part of the long arm of chromosome 13 is discussed. 相似文献

The presence of a structurally abnormal extra chromosome in a patient with Sturge-Weber syndrome and several members of her family is described. With routine techniques the abnormal chromosome is slightly submetacentric, of the size of a G group chromosome and shows satellites on both arms. C-banding suggested the presence of 2 centromeric regions rather than one, and to explain this finding, in addition to the segregation of the abnormal chromosome through 3 generations and why only one centromere is visible with the usual cytogenetic technique, an hypothesis is advanced suggesting that it resulted from an unusual type of Robertsonian translocation, in which one of the breacks involved directly the centromere of an acrocentric producing a partially dicentric bisate-lited chromosome. The association of Sturge-Weber syndrome with the chromosome abnormality is thought to be fortuitous and the lack of clinical manifestations of all members of this family with the abnormal chromosome, including one with two extra ones, is explained by the fact that it was almost entirely formed by heterochromatic material. The usefulness of C-banding in the study of this patient is strongly emphasized. 相似文献

An alphoid repetitive DNA (D8Z2) probe specific for the pericentromeric region of chromosome 8 was used to detect extra copies of chromosome 8 in bone marrow cells obtained from 10 patients with hematological disorders and five controls. Numerical aberrations of chromosome 8 were established by conventional banding techniques. Trisomy 8 was found in four patients with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and three with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Three additional patients with MDS exhibited an extra chromosome 8 in only one metaphase. In five of the seven trisomy cases, the presence of the trisomy 8 clone was confirmed by in situ hybridization (ISH). In one case of AML with trisomy 8, detected by GTG-banding, no significant numbers of cells containing three spots were found using the alphoid repetitive probe; however, hybridization with a chromosome 8-specific library revealed that the alleged extra chromosome 8 was a translocation chromosome containing only the long arm of chromosome 8. Due to a lack of material, it was not possible to achieve optimal ISH results on the trisomy 8 bone marrow cells of patient 7. In the three MDS patients with a single trisomy 8 metaphase, a slight, albeit significant, increase of trisomy 8 interphase cells was found with ISH. We conclude that this probe is useful for cytogenetic studies. Moreover, ISH, in general, is a powerful tool for precise classification of chromosomal aberrations and can also contribute significantly to the clinical evaluation of patients with hematological disorders. 相似文献

Mosaic and non-mosaic trisomy 15q2 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Two unrelated patients are presented. In the first mosaicism with normal cells and cells trisomic for the distal long arm (q2) of chromosome 15 was found. The 15q2 trisomy was due to a chromosome 14, to the long arm of which an extra 15q2 region was attached (14pter----14q32::15q22----15qter). In the second trisomy 15q2 was present as a consequence of a balanced t(7;15)(p22;q15) translocation in the mother. 相似文献

Maternal origin of extra marker chromosome Iq31.l-qter and 13pter-q12.12 in a child with dysmorphic features: We describe a twenty-days-old female child with dysmorphic features and chromosomal analysis with GTG-banding revealed an extra marker chromosome. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) study of extra marker chromosome confirmed to be maternal der(13) chromosome, contained 1q31.1-qter and 13pter-q11 chromosomal material and resulted from a maternal balanced translocation t(1;13)(q31.1; q12.12). The child had the majority of trisomy 1q clinical features: dysmorphic features, micropthalmia, high arched palate, long philthrum, micrognathia, hypertelorism, low set ears, short sternum, overlapping fingers, valgus of wrists, right knee and ankle joints were in flexion contractures. This is the first case of trisomy 1q with an extra marker chromosome which also contained chromosome 13pter-q12.12 material. 相似文献

Chromosome studies in 500 induced abortions. 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
A survey of the chromosome constitution in 500 induced abortions (5-12 menstrual weeks) was undertaken over a period of 1 1/2 years. There were 34 cases (6.8%) of gross chromosome anomalies: 2 cases of trisomy A; 5 of trisomy C (including XXX and XXY); 1 of mosaic trisomy C; 4 of trisomy D; 2 of trisomy E; 2 of trisomy G; 1 of double trisomy E and G; 1 of XYY; 4 of monosmy C (including XO); 2 of mosaic monosomy C; 1 of mosaicism of ring D chromosome; 1 of extra small metacentric chromosome; 3 of triploidy (including triploidy with double trisomy C and G); and 5 of tetraploidy and its mosaicism. An increased risk for the occurrence of trisomic anomalies was found with advancing age of the mothers. In contrast, the production of monosomies was not age-related. Trisomies were the most common type of anomalies and were found almost at random, regardless of the characteristics of chromosomes. Neither satellited nor small chromosomes were predominantly involved in the formation of chromosome anomalies. 相似文献

Summary Using quinacrine fluorescence and Giemsa banding techniques we have identified an extra chromosome 22 in three non-mongoloid children with similar phenotypes and 47 chromosomes. In one of the children, the long arm of the extra 22 was shorter than usual. This 22q—chrcmcscme was observed in 4 normal family members with 46 chromosomes. In a fourth child, with similar physical findings, the extra G chromosome was shown to be neither a normal 21 nor 22. It must have arisen from a rearrangement in a parental gamete since it was not present in either parent's karyotype.No constellation of clinical findings, in association with an extra G chromosome, is sufficient evidence for the diagnosis of trisomy 22. The positive identification of the extra chromosome must be made using fluorescence and banding.This paper is dedicated to Professor Marcus M. Rhoades on his 70th birthday in grateful recognition of his friendship, help and advice.Supported in part by U.S. Public Health Service Grants HD1313, RR-75 and TI-HD-66 from the National Institutes of Health.

Summary A 36-month-old boy presented with short stature, short neck, shield-shaped chest, and mental retardation. Chromosome analysis showed trisomy for the short arm and the proximal portion of the long arm of chromosome 13 [47,XY,+der(13),t(13;22)(q12;q13)mat]. The patient's mother has a balanced translocation between the long arms of chromosomes 13 and 22 [46,XX,t(13;22)(q12;q13)]. The patient's neutrophils showed an elevated number of nuclear projections and his fetal hemoglobin level was undetectable. 相似文献

The present paper reports the chromosome numbers and karyotypes of eight
species of Sect. Rhiziridium in Allium (Liaceae). The materials were all collected from their
natural populations in east Inner Mongolia, China. The karyotype analysis is made on the
basis of Li et al. (1985).The results are as follows (for chromosomes parameters, voucher
specimens and localities, see Table 1 and Plate 1--2 the idiograms of the eight species in
Fig. 1):
(1) Auium leucocephalum Turcz. The somatic chromosome number and karyotype of
this species is 2n=16=12m=2sm+2st (2SAT), in Stebbinsl(1971) kayotype classification, which belongs to 2A (Plate 1: 1; Fig. 1: 1). The range of chromosome relative length
varies between 8.90--15.55%. Two small satellites are attached to the short arms of the
8th pair of chromosomes. (2) A. strictum Schrader has 2n (4x) =32=16m+4sm+12st,
belonging to 2B (Plate 1: 2 & Fig. 1: 2). Satellites were not observed., and the range of chromosome relative length is between 3. 67-11.00%. (3) A. ramosum L. 2n=16=14m+
2st (2SAT), belonging to 2A (Plate 1: 3 & Fig. 1: 3), Two small satellies are attached
to the short arms of the 8th pair of chromosomes. The range of chromosome relative length
is between 9.17-16.39%. The chromosome number and karyotype of this species are in accordancewith those reported by Li et al. (1982) with the material from Jinshan, Beijing.
(4) A. bidentatum Fisch. ex Prokh. 2n (4x) =32=24m+4sm+4T, belonging to 2B
(Plate 1: 4 & Fig. 1: 4). Satellites were not observed. A small median B-chromosome was
found in root-tip cells of the population growing in sandy soil, and it is the first discovery
(Plate 2: 9). The species has terminal chromosomes, which are seldom seen in Sect.
Rhiziridium. The range of chromosome relative length is between 3.32—9.06%. (5) A.
tenuissimu L. 2n=16= 10m+4sm+2st(2SAT), belonging to 2B(Plate 1:5 & Fig. 1:5).
Two large satellites are attached to the short arms of the 8th pair of chromosome. The range
of chromosome relative length is between 8.27--17.56%. (6)A. anisopodium Ledeb. 2n
= 16 = l2m +2sm + 2st (2SAT), belonging to 2A (Plate 2:7 & Fig. 1: 7). Two large satellites are attached to the short arms of the 8th pair of chromosomes. In somatic cells of some
plants of this species, a small submedian B-chromosome was found (Plate 2: 10, 11). The
range of chromosome relative length is between 8.05-17.08 %. (7) A. anisopodium Ledeb.
var. zimmermannianum (Gilg) Wang et Tang 2n (4x)=32=24m+4sm+4st( 4SAT), belonging to 2A (Plate 1: 6 & Fig. 1: 6). Four large satellites are attached to the short arms
of the 15 and 16th pairs of chromosomes. The range of chromosome relative length is between 4.45--8.35%. This variety is similar to A. anisopodium Ledeb. in morphological characters, and their karyotype formulas are also very similar. The present authors consider that
the variety is an allotetraploid derived from A. anisopodium Ledeb. (8) A. condensatum Turcz. 2n=16=14m+2st (2SAT), belonging to 2B (Plate 2:8 & Fig. 1:8). Two. small
satellites are attached to the short arms of the 6th pair of chromosomes. In a few individuals
of this species median (M) B-chromosome was discovered, and the number is stable (Plate
2: 12). The range of chromosome relative length is between 7.64--17.07%.
In short, the chromosome numbers of the species studied in the present work are found
to be 2n=16 or 32, and the karyotypes belong to 2A or 2B, highly symmetrical. The karyotypes of Chinese materials of these species are mostly reported for the first time. Threespecies have B-chromosomes. 相似文献

Summary A supernumerary extra chromosome of maternal origin, precisely described from QM- and C-banding patterns, was studied in a mentally defective boy with a severe convulsive disorder. This case is considered to represent a specific phenotype of trisomy 15q1. The suggestion that in cases of partial trisomy 15q different phenotypes are due to the second chromosome involved in interchange is supported by the observation of a tertiary trisomy in 2 sibs. It resulted from a balanced reciprocal translocation in the mother t(8q+15q-) and caused an unusual malformation syndrome (mental deficiency, cleft lip and palate, funnel chest, hypospadias). 相似文献

Summary The nucleolus organizer regions (NORs) of variant D- and G-group chromosomes characterized by enlargements of the short arms including secondary constrictions and satellites, were examined using the silver-staining method. Of a total of nine variants examined, four were found to have double Ag-stained NORs in the enlarged short arm, two were found to involve chromosome 22, one was a 13, and one, a 14. Four of the other variants had only one Ag-stained NOR. From the positions of the NORs, three of them were judged to have enlarged satellites (two chromosomes 15 and one 22) and the other an enlarged short arm (a 15). In the remaining variant (a 14), no Agstained material was noted in the short arm, so it could not be determined whether this variant chromosome was derived from the enlargement of the short arm or from satellites. Based on the position of the Ag-stained NORs and staining intensity of the Q and C methods in the short arms, mechanisms of producing the enlarged short arms of D- and G-group chromosomes are discussed. 相似文献

We report a case having multiple abnormalities including the simultaneous presence of the heart defect and central nerve system abnormalities, which has been reported in a few cases, and with a partial trisomy 15q. Partial trisomy 15q has been inherited from a balanced translocation carried by his phenotypically normal father, detected by traditional banding and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). Application of FISH using whole chromosome specific library probes, locus specific and repetitive probes allowed us to detect the translocation between chromosomes 15q and 17q. Simultaneous application of probes revealed the position of the translocation. Interestingly, in addition to the chromosomes 15 pericentromeric signals, the use of chromosome 15 beta-satellite III probe demonstrated an extra signal on chromosome 14 in both metaphase, and lighted three signals interphase nuclei which was inherited from his father. This patient is compared with other partial trisomy 15q patients reported in the literature. The results are also discussed in relation to genetic counselling for the possible relation of chromosome abnormality and clinical findings. 相似文献

We describe the 11th case of a de novo partial trisomy of the long arm of chromosome 4, with the extra segment spanning from 4q27 to 4q35. The aberration resulted from an unbalanced translocation of material from 4q to the short arm of chromosome 7, as evident from fluorescent in situ hybridization. Microsatellite analysis revealed the extra material to originate from the father. The karyotype was interpreted as 46,XX,der(7)t(4;7)(q27;p22). The patient is a 13-year-old girl with severe mental retardation, growth retardation, hearing impairment as well as minor foot, thumb and facial anomalies. Although the extent of the aberration varies between the reported patients, there are nevertheless features in common, suggestive of a trisomy 4q syndrome. The clinical findings most frequently reported are: mental retardation, seizures, microcephaly, hearing impairment and growth retardation, as well as epicanthic folds, high/broad/depressed nasal bridge, malformed ears, tooth and thumb anomalies. Almost the entire long arm of chromosome 4, except band q11, has been involved in trisomies/duplications, but 4q27 and 4q31 seem to be preferentially engaged in the trisomy 4q syndrome. 相似文献

We report on a 16-month-old boy presenting with psychomotor retardation, craniofacial anomalies and severe vision deficit. Analysis of GTG-banded chromosomes showed that the patient had extra chromosomal material in the long arm of one chromosome 20. This chromosome aberration was further characterized with FISH using a chromosome 20 specific paint and band-specific probes. A partial trisomy 20q was shown to be present, the karyotype being 46, XY, dup (20) (q11.2q12). The cytogenetic and clinical findings are compared with cases previously reported in the literature. 相似文献

Drosophila nasutoides is distinguished from other Drosophila species in that the metaphase karyotype shows a pair of very large V-shaped chromosomes. With Giemsa, a distinctive C-banding pattern is revealed along the arms of this large chromosome, indicating a largely heterochromatic nature. Furthermore, the banding patterns of the arms are symmetrical, indicating that it is an iso-chromosome. A comparison between the metaphase karyotype and polytene chromosomes suggests that the large V chromosome appears as the dot chromosome in polytene squash. One autosome has twice the arm length of typical Drosophila polytene chromosomes and arose either by centric fusion and a pericentric inversion, or by translocation connecting distal ends with a subsequent loss of one centromere. This chromosome appears to have a short arm which ectopically pairs with the proximal region of the long arm, representing a duplication of about ten bands. When the nuclear DNA is examined by neutral CsCl gradient, four satellites are observed. As much as sixty percent of the total DNA appears as satellites in the lysate of larval brains. No satellite was detectable in the lysate of salivary glands. These observations led us to suggest that the heterochromatic nature of the large V chromosome is due to the presence of all four satellites in this chromosome and that this large chromosome appears as the dot because of the under-reduplication of the satellites during polytenization. 相似文献
