We report a case of prenatally diagnosed mosaic trisomy 20 in cells cultured from amniotic fluid. Trisomy 20 was present in 7 cells (13 percent) in a total of 52 investigated cells. Following the normal findings of an ultrasound scan, the couple decided to continue the pregnancy. A dysmorphic infant was born at the 38 weeks of gestation with generalized dysmorphic features and multiple cardiac anomalies including transposition of great arteries. Chromosome analysis on both cord blood and placenta at birth revealed a normal 46,XX karyotype. This patient is the first case of a liveborn infant with mosaic trisomy 20 cells detected in amniotic fluid culture with transposition of great arteries, atrioventricular concordance and ventricoarterial discordance. 相似文献

Hairy Elbows Syndrome (Hypertrichosis Cubiti; OMIM# 139600) is a rare syndrome, and characterized by the presence of long vellus hair localized on the extensor surfaces of the distal third of the arms and proximal third of the forearm bilaterally. Occasionally hypertrichosis of other body regions may accompany hairy elbows. About half of the reported patients have short stature. Aside from short stature other relatively rare abnormalities related with this syndrome were also described. Most of the reported cases were sporadic, but autosomal dominant as well as autosomal recessive inheritance patterns have also been postulated. In this report, we present a girl with Hairy Elbows syndrome who has both characteristic and uncommon findings of the syndrome. She has excessive hair on her elbows, along with short stature, microcephaly, joint hyperlaxity, thin-long-webbed neck, dysmorphic facial features and mental retardation. 相似文献

The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between the blood level of cadmium and the occurrence of ectopic pregnancy. Forty-one (41) case patients with ectopic pregnancy and 41 uncomplicated intrauterine pregnant patients as controls were recruited. The concentrations of cadmium (Cd) were measured from blood samples using atomic absorption spectrometry. The cases and controls were similar in age, body mass index, and smoking habits. The median blood level of Cd was 0.32 μg/l (interquartile range [IQR] 0.00–0.71) in the women with ectopic pregnancies and 0.34 μg/l (IQR 0.09–0.59) in the controls. There was no significant association between blood cadmium levels and ectopic pregnancy. 相似文献

Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase (SOD1) is an antioxidant enzyme that catalyzes the removal of superoxide radicals generated in various biological oxidations. Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is one of the most common neurodegenerative disorders, occurring in families (FALS) and sporadically (SALS). FALS and SALS are distinguishable genetically but not clinically. More than 100 point mutations in the human SOD 1 gene have been identified that cause FALS. In order to determine the effects of mutant SOD protein, we first cloned wild-type and A4V mutant human SOD1 into Schizosaccharomyces pombe. This study shows viabilities and some antioxidant properties including SOD, catalase, proteasomal activity, and protein carbonyl levels of transformants in SOD1 deleted strain (MN415); and its parental strain (JY741) at different stress conditions. There was no more oxidative damage in the human mutant SOD carrying the transformant strain compared with other strains. These results may help to explain whether ALS progresses as a consequence of cellular oxidative damage. 相似文献

Background
The importance of tick-borne diseases is increasing all over the world, including Turkey. The tick-borne disease outbreaks reported in recent years and the abundance of tick species and the existence of suitable habitats increase the importance of studies related to the epidemiology of ticks and tick-borne pathogens in Turkey. The aim of this study was to investigate the presence of and to determine the infection rates of some tick-borne pathogens, including Babesia spp., Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato and spotted fever group rickettsiae in the ticks removed from humans in different parts of Ankara.Methodology/Principal Findings
A total of 169 ticks belonging to the genus Haemaphysalis, Hyalomma, Ixodes and Rhipicephalus were collected by removing from humans in different parts of Ankara. Ticks were molecularly screened for Babesia spp., Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato and spotted fever group rickettsiae by PCR and sequencing analysis. We detected 4 Babesia spp.; B. crassa, B. major, B. occultans and B. rossi, one Borrelia spp.; B. burgdorferi sensu stricto and 3 spotted fever group rickettsiae; R. aeschlimannii, R. slovaca and R. hoogstraalii in the tick specimens analyzed. This is the report showing the presence of B. rossi in a region that is out of Africa and in the host species Ha. parva. In addition, B. crassa, for which limited information is available on its distribution and vector species, and B. occultans, for which no conclusive information is available on its presence in Turkey, were identified in Ha. parva and H. marginatum, respectively. Two human pathogenic rickettsia species (R. aeschlimannii and R. slovaca) were detected with a high prevalence in ticks. Additionally, B. burgdorferi sensu stricto was detected in unusual tick species (H. marginatum, H. excavatum, Hyalomma spp. (nymph) and Ha. parva).Conclusions/Significance
This study investigates both the distribution of several tick-borne pathogens affecting humans and animals, and the presence of new tick-borne pathogens in Turkey. More epidemiological studies are warranted for B. rossi, which is very pathogenic for dogs, because the presented results suggest that B. rossi might have a wide distribution in Turkey. Furthermore, we recommend that tick-borne pathogens, especially R. aeschlimannii, R. slovaca, and B. burgdorferi sensu stricto, should be taken into consideration in patients who had a tick bite in Turkey. 相似文献7.

Marker or ring X chromosomes are frequently seen in Ullrich-Turner Syndrome with 46,X,r(X) karyotype, but only 8 children were reported with an extra marker X chromosome in at least some of their cell lines, we describe a 5 years old male patient who is mosaic (17%) for a cell line with an extra ring shaped marker X chromosome in addition to a normal 46,XY cell line. He had mild motor mental retardation, a dysmorphic face, dysplastic ears, high arched palate, cryptorchidism and brachydactyly. G-banding showed 46,XY[83]/47,XY,+r?[17] karyotype. NOR banding revealed no satellite region but its centromere was intact in C-banding. By fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) technique, dual X/Y alpha-satellite probes were used to detect the origin of ring shaped marker chromosome and 17% of his cells had two X chromosome signals due to marker X; hybridization with X chromosome inactivation center (XIST) specific probe revealed the absence of the locus on the ring chromosome. In this report, clinical features of our patient are compared with previously reported cases and the cytogenetic and molecular cytogenetic techniques used to detect origin of marker chromosome are discussed. 相似文献

Dubowitz syndrome (DS) (MIM#223370) (4) is a very rare genetic and developmental disorder involving multiple congenital anomalies including: 1) growth failure/short stature; 2) unusual but characteristic facial features; small triangular face, high sloping forehead, ptosis, short palpebral fissures, broad and flat nasal bridge; 3) microcephaly; 4) mild mental retardation; and 5) in at least 50% of the cases, eczema. Multiple organ systems are affected and the disorder is unpredictable and extremely variable in its expression. Here we describe a male Turkish patient who has typical and less common findings of DS with additionally persistently low serum lipid levels and an arachnoid cyst. The present patient is the second case of DS with persistently low cholesterol levels. 相似文献

In this study, a total of 5,094 ticks found on humans were examined in terms of species, development stage, gender, host features
and seasonality for a year period. Of these ticks 17 were argasid and 5,077 were ixodid. Predominantly species of the ixodid
genera Hyalomma, Dermacentor, Rhipicephalus and Haemaphysalis were found on humans in Ankara (Anatolia). Most abundant were Hyalomma nymphs (29.8%) and adults (28.2%). Primary factors in terms of tick bite risk were region, habitat and season. 相似文献

Congenital radio-ulnar synostosis may be an isolated abnormality or additional abnormalities may accompany it. It may also be found as a part of well-known syndromes. We present a case with bilateral congenital radio-ulnar synostosis, speech delay, dimple on shoulders, café au lait spot and characteristic facial appearance. The proband has a brother with similar clinical findings with the exception of congenital radio-ulnar synostosis. We discuss the possible relationship between our case and previously described syndromes with congenital radio-ulnar synostosis, and distinct phenotypic features of the presented case. 相似文献
