Routine chromosomal analysis using GTG-banding alone showed a mosaic terminal deletion of 6q in a 14-week-old boy with developmental
retardation, facial anomalies, agenesis of corpus callosum, cleft palate, hypotonia, short neck and pterygium colli, and minor
anomalies of hands and feet. Discrepancies between the clinical findings on our patient and those described in the literature
on patients having terminal deletions led to a more precise analysis of the karyotype. Reverse painting was performed on normal
G-banded metaphases for exact determination of the breakpoints and on metaphases of the patient for evaluation of mosaicism.
A DNA library that was obtained by microdissection of three deleted chromosomes 6 was used as a painting probe. Subsequent
DNA amplification was performed with the help of topoisomerase-pretreated degenerate oligonucleotide primers. Unexpectedly,
the hybridization pattern on normal metaphase chromosomes revealed an interstitial deletion with breakpoints at 6q25.1 and
6q27 instead of a terminal deletion. Hybridization on metaphases of the patient showed one deleted chromosome 6 in all metaphases
analyzed at a higher resolution rather than mosaicism as previously assumed [karyotype, 46,XY,del(6)(q25.1→q27)]. We assume
that in the single cases of 6q– described in the literature the deletions are misclassified. This might be due to difficulties in distinguishing between
interstitial and terminal deletions at 6q and in precisely defining chromosomal breakpoints after GTG-banding alone.

We have used a panel of 13 DNA markers in the distal region of chromosome 14q to characterize deletions in three patients determined cytogenetically to have a ring or terminally deleted chromosome 14. We have characterized one patient with a ring chromosome 14 [r (14) (p13q32.33)] and two with terminal deletions [del (14) (pterq32.3:)]. The two patients with cytogenetically identical terminal deletions of chromosome 14 were found to differ markedly when characterized with molecular markers. In one patient, none of the markers tested were deleted, indicating that the apparent terminal deletion is actually due to either an undetected interstitial deletion or a cryptic translocation event. In the other patient, the deletion was consistent with the cytogenetic observations. The deleted chromosome was shown to be of paternal origin. The long-arm breakpoint of the ring chromosome was mapped to within a 350-kb region of the immunoglobulin heavy chain gene cluster (IGH). This breakpoint was used to localize markers D14S20 and D14S23, previously thought to lie distal to IGH, to a more proximal location. The ring chromosome represents the smallest region of distal monosomy 14q yet reported. 相似文献

A dysmorphic newborn showed an interstitial deletion of the long arm of a chromosome 16 due to a balanced paternal insertional translocation 46,XY,ins(14;16)(q23;q13q22). The insertion was confirmed by chromosomal in situ suppression (CISS-) hybridization. Clinical features considered to be typical for a 16q- phenotype are demonstrated in this patient. Similar observations described in the literature are compared and discussed with reference to the phenocritical region. 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

Ring chromosome 10—r(10)—is a rare disorder, with 14 cases reported in the literature, but only two with breakpoint determination by high-resolution techniques. We report here on two patients presenting a ring chromosome 10, studied by G-banding, fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH), multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA) and SNP-array techniques, in order to investigate ring instability and determine breakpoints. Patient 1 showed a r(10)(p15.3q26.2) with a 7.9 Mb deletion in 10q26.2-q26.2, while patient 2 showed a r(10)(p15.3q26.13) with a 1.0 Mb deletion in 10p15.3 and a 8.8 Mb deletion in 10q26.13-q26.3, both unstable. While patient 1 presented with clinical features usually found in patients with r(10) and terminal 10q deletion, patient 2 presented characteristics so far not described in other patients with r(10), such as Dandy-Walker variant, osteopenia, semi-flexed legs, and dermal pigmentation regions. Our data and the data from literature show that there are no specific clinical findings to define a r(10) syndrome. 相似文献

A male patient is reported with terminal 10q26 deletion and clinical findings suggesting Prader-Willi syndrome during the infancy. These findings included decreased fetal movements, neonatal hypotonia, need for tube feeding, characteristic facial dysmorphism with dolichocephaly, narrow bifrontal diameter, almond-shaped eyes and epicanthus, hypogenitalism and developmental retardation. However, during the further evolution there was neither hyperphagia nor obesity and chromosomal and molecular investigations failed to confirm the diagnosis of Prader-Willi syndrome. Special behavioural abnormalities became evident with notably hyperactivity, hyperkinesis and destructive tendency. Finally, at the age of 17 years high resolution chromosome studies revealed a terminal 10q26.3 deletion. A review of the literature is made on previously reported patients with either a Prader-Willi-like syndrome or a terminal 10q deletion with behavioural problems. 相似文献

Summary A partial monosomy 13 by interstitial deletion was found in the complement of two patients with mental retardation and mild dysmorphic features. Neither of the patients had a retinoblastoma, even though the second patient had a 13q14 deletion. The karyotype-phenotype correlation in the two patients suggests the need to reconsider the clinical profile of these rare chromosomal syndromes in a large series of subjects. 相似文献

A fetal patient presented at 27.3 weeks of gestation with polyhydramnion. Ultrasound examination showed enlarged cerebral ventricles, abnormal position of the fingers and abnormal external genitals. Chromosome studies in chorionic villus material were normal male: in cultured amniocytes a distal deletion 14q32 was demonstrated and confirmed by FISH analysis. The baby was born at 37 weeks and died spontaneously during labour. This is the first report of prenatal diagnosis of a terminal 14q deletion. 相似文献

We report a female newborn with a de novo 1q4 deletion ascertained by G bands but refined as an interstitial one by FISH with a subtelomeric 1q probe; hence, the final karyotype was 46,XX,del(1)(q42q44).ish subtel1q x 2. She presented a few typical features of the del(1q42) syndrome. Additionally, she showed occipital skin aplasia, interauricular communication, and intestinal perforation-obstruction and she died at 24 days of age. This observation illustrates the clinical variability of the syndrome as well as the occasional reduced survival. The redefinition by molecular cytogenetics of a terminal deletion as an interstitial one suggests that interstitial deletions are more common than reported by classic cytogenetics and can partially account for the phenotypic variability in some deletion syndromes. 相似文献

Deletion of 13q in two patients with retinoblastoma,one probably due to 13q- mosaicism in the mother
Summary We examined the peripheral blood chromosomes of eight patients with retinoblastoma. In two of them an interstitial deletion of 13q was found. The breakpoints were determined as follows: case 1, 13q1221; case 2, 13q1231. In both cases, band 13q14 was deleted. In case 2 the lymphocytes of the mother showed the identical interstitial 13q deletion in 3 of 100 mitoses, thus raising the possibility of maternal origin of the 13q deletion in a child. In one patient, retinoblastoma was unilateral; in the other, bilateral. Both patients were mentally retarded. 相似文献

Fine mapping of deletion regions in autistic patients represents a valuable screening tool for identifying candidate genes for autism. A number of studies have ascertained associations between autism and terminal 2q deletion with the breakpoint within 2q37. Here we describe a 12-year-old female patient with terminal 2q37.3 cryptic deletion and autistic behaviour. Her clinical features included hypotonia and feeding difficulties during infancy, coarse face with notably prominent forehead, prominent eyebrows, broad flat nasal bridge and round cheeks, small hands and feet with bilateral brachymetaphalangism, proximal implantation of the thumbs and short toenails, mild mental retardation and autistic behaviour. Recorded autistic features included early lack of eye contact and, during infancy, little social interactions, propensity to be stereotypically busy and to get anxious. In order to more closely delineate the linkage region for autism within 2q37, the findings in this patient were combined to those in 2 previously reported siblings with a well documented 2q37.3 deletion, but without autistic disorder. The exact size of the deleted segment was determined by mapping the deleted region in each group with a series of specific BAC clones linearly ordered on the 2q37 region. The deletion in the autistic patient appeared to be larger [breakpoint flanked by more centromeric clones RP11-680016 (236.9 Mb) and 201F21 (237.4 Mb)] than in the non autistic siblings [more telomeric clones RP11-205L13 (237.8 Mb) and 346114 (238.2 Mb)], revealing a distance of maximum 1.3 Mb between the breakpoints. Accordingly, the extent of the candidate region for susceptibility genes for autism on distal 2q is reduced to maximum 1.3 Mb. Comparison with another well documented autistic patient from the literature results in the same conclusion. These findings represent thus a further step towards identifying genes predisposing to autism. 相似文献

Summary A male patient with an interstitial deletion 13q14q31 is described. Our necropsy findings included a left retinoblastoma and several gross internal malformations. In this paper we reaffirm that band 13q14 is involved in cases of retinoblastoma and we propose, after studying accompanying cases of total or partial long arm trisomies 13, that the loss of specific 13q bands, from 13q14 to 13q31 is responsible for the congenital defects we are describing. 相似文献

We report on a 6-year-old male patient with de novo 7q36 deletion and 8q24.3 duplication diagnosed by combining traditional G-banding and FISH studies. His clinical history was remarkable for pre- and postnatal growth retardation, neonatal feeding problems and developmental/mental retardation with non-verbal communication. He presented microcephaly, large ears, narrow palpebral fissures with blepharoptosis, epicanthic folds, large depressed nasal bridge, bulbous nasal tip, right cryptorchidism and delayed bone age on X-rays. There was no evidence of holoprosencephaly (HPE) or sacral agenesis sequence. By using in FISH analysis a series of YACs linearly ordered along the 7q36 region, the precise breakpoint on 7q36 was found to be within the target region of the YAC 742G8, a YAC that appeared to be only partially deleted. Clinical and chromosomal findings in this patient are compared to those previously recorded in similarly investigated patients from the literature with terminal 7q deletion. 相似文献

The breakpoint junction on a ring chromosome 17 in a girl with autism, mental retardation, mild dysmorphism and neurofibromatosis was identified and analysed at the nucleotide level. The extent of the deleted segments was about 1.9 Mb on 17p and about 1.0 Mb on 17q. The structure of the junction between the 17p and 17q arms, especially the lack of significant homology between the juxtaposed genomic regions and the presence of short microhomology at the junction site, indicated non-homologous end joining as the most likely mechanism leading to the rearrangement. In addition to the 17p-17q junction itself, a de novo 1 kb deletion in a distance of 400 bp from the junction was identified, which arose most likely as a part of the rearrangement. The defect directly inactivated 3 genes, and the deleted terminal chromosome segments harboured 27 and 14 protein-coding genes from 17p and 17q, respectively. Several of the genes affected by the rearrangement are candidates for the symptoms observed in the patient. Additional rearrangements similar to the 1 kb deletion observed in our patient may remain undetected but can participate in the phenotype of patients with chromosomal aberrations. They can also be the reason for repeated failures to clone breakpoint junctions in other patients described in the literature. 相似文献

This report describes a nearly 25-year-old female with an interstitial deletion of band 14 in the long arm of one chromosome 6 (6q14). The deletion is contained within a de novo pericentric inversion with breakpoints in 6p11.2 and 6q15 (Karyotype 46,XX, del(6)(q13q15),inv(6)(p11.2q15). The distal breakpoint of the deletion and the pericentric inversion at 6q15 are the same, but the proximal breakpoints differ. Since cells with other chromosomal findings were not detected in cultured lymphocytes and fibroblasts, chromosome mosaicism seems unlikely. Thus, it is assumed that the inversion and the deletion originated from the same event. The development of a distinctive phenotype in the patient was observed over a period of 22 years. It includes characteristic dysmorphic facial features such as ocular hypertelorism, flat nasal bridge, prominent zygomatic bones, and a depressed glabella. A striking, non-progressive deficit of motor control is manifest in an inability to use her hands properly and a broad-based slow-motion-like gait. Although severely deficient in abstract mental abilities and speech development, she is well adapted to family life and to a school for retarded individuals. Normal height and head circumference, and reduced sensitivity to pain are noteworthy. Presumably the deletion caused the phenotype and the distinct behavioral pattern. This patient probably represents a novel chromosomal phenotype that results from aggregate haploinsufficiency of gene loci in the deleted region. 相似文献

A case with de novo interstitial deletion of chromosome 7q21.1-q22: A patient with multiple congenital anomalies was found to have a de novo proximal interstitial deletion of chromosome 7q21.1-q22. The patient was 10.5 years of age, and manifestations include growth retardation (below 3rd percentile), mental retardation, mild microcephaly, hypersensitivity to noise, mild spasticity, short palpebral fissures, alternant exotropia, compensated hypermetropic astigmatism, hypotelorism, hypoplastic labia majora and minora, clinodactyly of fingers 4 and 5. Molecular studies revealed that the deletion had a paternal origin, while chromosomes of both parents cytogenetically were shown to be normal. Molecular, and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analyses confirmed no deletion at the Williams-Beuren Syndrome region. Some of the heterogeneous clinical findings were consistent with previously reported cases of same chromosomal breakpoints. 相似文献

High-resolution cytogenetics analysis of peripheral blood lymphocytes was done prospectively on 27 of 28 patients with features of DiGeorge anomaly. Twenty-two patients (81%) had normal chromosome studies with no detectable deletion in chromosome 22. Five patients (18%) had demonstrable chromosome abnormalities. Three patients had monosomy 22q11, one due to a 4q;22q translocation, one due to a 20q;22q translocation, and one due to an interstitial deletion of 22q11. One patient had monosomy 10p13, and one patient had monosomy 18q21.33, although the latter had subsequent resolution of T-cell defects. These findings are consistent with the heterogeneity of DiGeorge anomaly but confirm the association with monosomy 22q11 in some cases. However, monosomy 10p13 may also lead to this phenotype. Because of these associated chromosome findings, cytogenetic analyses should be done on patients with suspected DiGeorge anomaly. This is particularly important since many of the abnormalities involving chromosome 22 are translocations that can be familial with a higher recurrence risk. Since only one subtle, interstitial deletion of chromosome 22 was observed, it is not clear whether high-resolution cytogenetic analysis is cost beneficial for all such patients. 相似文献
