Constitutional DNA copy number changes in ICSI children.
BACKGROUND Over the last three decades, technological developments facilitating assisted reproductive techniques (ART) have revolutionized the treatment of subfertile couples, including men suffering from severe oligospermia or azoospermia. In parallel with the advent of these technologies, there is a great concern about the biological safety of ART. This concern is supported by the clinical ob...
متن کاملDNA copy number changes in cervical adenocarcinoma.
PURPOSE There is evidence that specific genetic events are involved in the initiation and progression of squamous cell carcinoma of the uterine cervix. The genotype-phenotype correlations in cervical adenocarcinoma (AC) are unclear. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN Comparative genomic hybridization was applied to screen for DNA copy number gains and losses in 22 cervical ACs of clinical stage IB. IHC was ...
متن کاملDNA copy number changes in malignant ovarian germ cell tumors.
Malignant ovarian germ cell tumors (OGCTs) include immature teratomas (ITs), dysgerminomas (DGs), endodermal sinus tumors (ESTs), choriocarcinomas, and embryonal carcinomas. Knowledge about the genetic changes associated with malignant OGCT development is sparse. We therefore analyzed 25 OGCTs (12 DGs, 4 ESTs, and 9 ITs) for gains and losses by comparative genomic hybridization. In total, more ...
متن کاملDetecting copy number changes in genomic DNA: MAPH and MLPA.
Using Multiplex Amplifiable Probe Hybridization (MAPH) and Multiplex Ligation-dependent ProbeAmplification (MLPA) we have screened different cohorts of Duchenne/Becker Muscular Dystrophy (DMD/BMD) patients for duplications. In an unselected series the duplication frequency was 8%; in agroup of patients already screened for deletions and point mutations we found a duplication in 64% of<l...
متن کاملThe Role of Constitutional Copy Number Variants in Breast Cancer
Constitutional copy number variants (CNVs) include inherited and de novo deviations from a diploid state at a defined genomic region. These variants contribute significantly to genetic variation and disease in humans, including breast cancer susceptibility. Identification of genetic risk factors for breast cancer in recent years has been dominated by the use of genome-wide technologies, such as...
