Project description:With the advancement of molecular technology, fetal talipes equinovarus (TE) is believed to be not only associated with chromosome aneuploidy, but also related to chromosomal microdeletion and microduplication. The study aimed to explore the molecular etiology of fetal TE and provide more information for the clinical screening and genetic counseling of TE by CMA.This retrospectively study included 131 fetuses with TE identified by ultrasonography. Conventional karyotyping and SNP array analysis were performed for all the subjects. They were divided into isolated TE group (n=55) and complex group (n=76) according to structural anomalies.Among the total of 131 fetuses, karyotype analysis found 12(9.2%) abnormal results, while SNP array found 27 (20.6%) cases. Trisomy 18 was detected most frequently among abnormal karyotypes. The detection rate of SNP array was significantly higher than that of traditional chromosome karyotype analysis.SNP array detected 15 (11.5%) cases of submicroscopic abnormalities that karyotype analysis did not find. The most common CNV was the 22q11.2 microdeletion. For both analyses, the overall detection rates were significantly higher in the complex TE group than in the isolated TE group. The incremental yield of chromosomal abnormalities in fetuses with unilateral TE (22.0%) was higher than in fetuses with bilateral TE (19.8%), but this difference was not statistically significant.Abnormal chromosomes were most frequently detected in fetuses with TE plus cardiovascular system abnormalities.Fetal TE is related to chromosomal microdeletion or microduplication. Prenatal diagnosis is recommended for fetuses with TE, and CMA testing is preferred. CMA can improve the detection rate of chromosomal abnormalities associated with fetal TE, especially in pregnancies with complex TE.

Project description:Potocki-Shaffer syndrome (PSS) is a rare contiguous gene deletion syndrome marked by haploinsufficiency of genes in chromosomal region 11p11.2p12. Approximately 50 cases of PSS have been reported; however, a syndrome with a PSS-like clinical phenotype caused by 11p11.12p12 duplication has not yet been reported. We first report the 11p11.12p12 duplication in a family with intellectual disability and craniofacial anomalies. 11p11.12p12 duplication syndrome was identified by karyotype analysis. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) analysis clarified the location of the chromosomal variations, which was confirmed by chromosome microarray analysis (CMA). Whole-exome sequencing (WES) was performed to exclude single nucleotide variations (SNVs). The raw data of NGS analysis and WES have been submitted to SRA, the accession number is PRJNA713823.

Project description:We retrospectively reviewed 488 fetuses who diagnosed with FGR and without structural malformation during a 10-year period. A total of 19 (3.9%) cases of chromosomal anomalies were detected, including 11 cases of numerical abnormalities, 5 of structural abnormalities, and 3 of mosaicism. We classified the cohort into cases diagnosed at ≤24, 25-28, 29-32, and > 32 weeks of gestation according to the onset gestations; isolated FGR, FGR with soft markers, and FGR with nonstructural anomalies according to different ultrasound findings; high and low-risk maternal serum screening (MSS) groups based on the MSS results. The results suggested that abnormal karyotypes were more frequently detected in cases diagnosed at ≤24 weeks (7.2%), cases with soft markers (5.2%), and cases with high-risk MSS (7.5%) than in other groups within each classification. Among cases with normal karyotype, additional 4.2% of clinically relevant aberrations were detected by SNP array. The incremental yields in cases diagnosed at ≤24 weeks (6.5%), cases with soft markers (9.5%), and cases with high-risk MSS (12.0%) were higher than those in other groups within each classification. We concluded that fetal chromosomal aberration is an important etiology for FGR without structural malformation, and plays an important role in pregnancies decision-making. SNP array improves the detection of genetic anomalies especially in fetuses diagnosed at ≤24 weeks, fetuses with soft makers, and fetuses with high risk of MSS.

Project description:This study aimed to evaluate the clinical value of copy number variations (CNVs) in fetuses with ultrasonic soft markers. Among 1131 fetuses, 729 had single ultrasonic soft marker, 322 had two ultrasonic soft markers, and 80 had three or more ultrasonic soft markers. All fetuses underwent single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) array analysis. Among 1131 fetuses with ultrasonic soft markers, 46 had chromosomal abnormalities. In addition to the 46 fetuses with chromosomal abnormalities consistent with the results of the karyotyping analysis, the SNP array identified additional 6.1% (69/1131) abnormal CNVs. No significant difference was found in the rate of abnormal CNVs among the groups. The SNP array can fully complement conventional karyotyping in fetuses with ultrasonic soft markers, improve detection rate of chromosomal abnormalities, and affect pregnancy outcomes.

Project description:In order to evaluate the performance of CNV detection in next-generation sequencing platform in varied sample types, we employed chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA) for validation of the samples with NGS-based detection results (NCBI Sequence Read Archive with accession number SRA296708). Besides array Comparative Genomics Hybridization (aCGH, Agilent) , we used a commerical SNP-array (Illumina) including early abortus, induced termination, prenatal samples and postnatal samples. CMA results were compared with NGS-based detection results. 100% consistency was obtained between NGS-based approach and CMA in pathogenic or likely pathogenic CNVs detection.

Project description:Embryos generated with the use of assisted reproductive technologies (ART) can develop overgrowth syndromes. In ruminants, the condition is referred to as large offspring syndrome (LOS) and exhibits variable phenotypic abnormalities including overgrowth, enlarged tongue, and abdominal wall defects. These characteristics recapitulate those observed in the human loss-of-imprinting (LOI) overgrowth syndrome Beckwith-Wiedemann (BWS). We have recently shown LOI at the KCNQ1 locus in LOS, the most common epimutation in BWS. Although the first case of ART-induced LOS was reported in 1995, studies have not yet determined the extent of LOI in this condition. Here, we determined allele-specific expression of imprinted genes previously identified in human and/or mouse in day 105 Bos taurus indicus X Bos taurus taurus F1 hybrid control and LOS fetuses using RNAseq. Our analysis allowed us to determine the monoallelic expression of 20 genes in tissues of control fetuses. LOS fetuses displayed variable LOI when compared to controls. Biallelic expression of imprinted genes in LOS was associated with tissue-specific hypomethylation of the normally methylated parental allele. In addition, a positive correlation was observed between bodyweight and the number of biallelically expressed imprinted genes in LOS fetuses. Further, not only was there loss of allele-specific expression of imprinted genes in LOS, but we also observed differential transcript amounts of these genes between control and overgrown fetuses. In summary, we characterized previously unidentified imprinted genes in bovine and identified misregulation of imprinting at multiple loci in LOS. We concluded that LOS is a multi-locus loss-of-imprinting syndrome, as is BWS.

Project description:Fetal gastrointestinal tract obstructions (GITO) is the most frequently encountered gastrointestinal defects in prenatal. This study aimed to investigate the genetic disorders and pregnancy outcomes of fetal GITO. We reviewed data from 70 pregnancies who were referred for invasive prenatal testing due to fetal GITO. According to the levels of obstruction, they were classified into esophageal atresia/stenosis, duodenal atresia/stenosis, jejunal or ileal atresia/stenosis, and anal atresia. Traditional karyotyping was performed on all 70 pregnancies, and chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA) was performed on 32 of them in parallel. Traditional karyotyping revealed twelve (17.1%) chromosomal abnormalities, including 11 cases of trisomy 21 (Down syndrome), and one case of a supernumerary marker chromosome related to Cat Eye Syndrome. According to the absence or presence of other ultrasound anomalies, they were categorized into isolated GITO (n = 36) and non-isolated GITO (n = 34). The rate of chromosomal abnormalities in non-isolated GITO pregnancies was significantly higher than that in isolated GITO pregnancies (29.4% vs. 5.5%, p < 0.05); the survival rate in isolated group was significantly higher than that in non-isolated group (67.6% vs. 34.4%, p<0.05). Among the 32 cases where CMA was performed, additional one (3.1%) copy number variants with clinical significance was noted in a fetus with normal karyotype. The microduplication on 7q12 was consider to be the genetic etiologies of duodenal stenosis, although it was inherited from a phenotypically normal mother. Our study supports the strong association between Down syndrome and fetal GITO, especially duodenal stenosis. Our findings suggested that the risk of chromosomal abnormalities increased when GITO was accompanied by other ultrasound anomalies, thus chromosomal abnormalities and fetal anatomy should be carefully evaluated for pregnancy management of fetal GITO.
