Copy-number variation in the pathogenesis of autism spectrum disorder.
Autism spectrum disorder is a neurodevelopmental disorder present in 1% of the population, characterized by impairments in reciprocal social interaction, communication deficits and restricted patterns of behavior. Approximately 10% of the autism spectrum disorder population is thought to have large chromosomal rearrangements. Copy-number variations (CNV) alter the genome structure either by dup...
متن کاملCopy number variation and autism: new insights and clinical implications.
Genomic research can lead to discoveries of copy number variations (CNVs) which can be a susceptibility factor for autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The clinical translation is that this can improve the care of children with ASD. Chromosome microarray is now the first-tiered genetic investigation for ASD, with a detection rate exceeding conventional cytogenetics and any single gene testing. Howev...
متن کاملBIRC5 Genomic Copy Number Variation in Early-Onset Breast Cancer
Background: Baculoviral inhibitor of apoptosis repeat-containing 5 (BIRC5) gene is an inhibitor of apoptosis that expresses in human embryonic tissues but it is absent in most healthy adult tissues. The copy number of BIRC5 has been indicated to be highly increased in tumor tissues; however, its association with the age of onset in breast cancer is not well understood. Methods: Forty tumor tiss...
متن کاملHigh-resolution assessment of copy number variation.
PCR revolutionized genetic analysis by enabling selective amplification of targeted sequences that, as a consequence of massive enrichment, could undergo genetic analysis by a variety of methodologies. The subsequent addition of a double-stranded DNA intercalating dye to the master mix was a key adaptation to PCR that allowed monitoring of amplification in real time, thus enabling quantificatio...
متن کاملFunctional Impact of Global Rare Copy Number Variation in Autism Spectrum Disorder
The autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) are a group of conditions characterized by impairments in reciprocal social interaction and communication, and the presence of restricted and repetitive behaviors1. Individuals with an ASD vary greatly in cognitive development, which can range from above average to intellectual disability (ID)2. While ASDs are known to be highly heritable (~90%)3, the underl...
