Project description:Standard cytogenetic GTG-banding analysis (550 bands) revealed an interstitial deletion on 15q21q22 chromosomal region. Refinement of the 15q21.2 deletion intervals was conducted using aCGH (Cytoscan HD, Affymetrix) on DNA samples from the patient. This assay revealed the presence of submicroscopic alterations on chromosomes 1, 9 and 15. The result was arr[hg19] 9p24.1(6,619,823-6,749,335)x3, 1q44(248,688,586-248,795,277)x1, 15q21.2q22.2(50,848,301-61,298,006)x1.

Affymetrix CytoScan HD arrays were performed according to the manufacturer's directions on DNA extracted from peripheral blood samples.

Project description:The uploaded results of two samples were SNParray results in our research of which fetal CNVs were detected by noninvasive prenatal test (NIPT) and confirmed by microarray results. Sample ZNY162 received prenatal diagnosis because at 17 gestational week the pregnant woman received NIPT showing 23Mb microdeletion in Chr18. Later ultrasound examination showed developmental anomalies of feet and the 13th ribs. The pregnant woman received amniocentesis and SNParray at the 21st gestational week, which confirmed the existence of the microdeletion in Chr18. DNA was extracted from 10ml amniotic fluid and tested by Affymetrix CytoScan HD array to detect CNVs in whole genome, showing arr 18q22.3q23(69,461,933-78,014,123) Ã1. Sample LMQ155 received prenatal diagnosis because of advanced maternal age and NIPT result of a 2.29Mb microduplication in Chr13 at 15 gestational week. Amniocentesis was performed at the 17th gestational week. Affymetrix CytoScan HD array were used to detect fetal CNVs in whole genome, which showed arr 13q21.2(60,399,612-61,730,194) Ã3 that was consistent with NIPT result.
Project description:Malignant melanoma is a highly metastatic disease disseminating to several distant sites. This potential is also of great clinical impact for patient survival and therapeutic success. Knowledge about melanoma genomics is mainly based on lymphatic or skin metastases derived data, whereas data from distant sites is rather limited. Therefore, an autopsy-based visceral metastasis biobank was established and an array-based CNV analysis was performed focusing primarily on major organs (brain, lung and liver) on a total of 38 samples (10 primary and 28 organ metastasse). A unique picture emerged about organ specific CNV type distributions or gene alterations including the frequent loss of DNA damage error genes in brain metastases, the presence of HGF/MET autocrine loop in brain and lung metastases, the traces of immunogenic mimicry exclusive for lung metastases or the correlation of BRAF copy number and mutant allele frequency especially in lung metastases. All these above phenomena have a great influence on therapy efficacy or resistance.
