Investigation of Copy Number Variation in Children with Conotruncal Heart Defects
BACKGROUND Congenital heart defects (CHD) are the most prevalent group of structural abnormalities at birth and one of the main causes of infant morbidity and mortality. Studies have shown a contribution of the copy number variation in the genesis of cardiac malformations. OBJECTIVES Investigate gene copy number variation (CNV) in children with conotruncal heart defect. METHODS Multiplex li...
متن کاملGuidelines for 22q11 deletion screening of patients with conotruncal defects.
Goldmuntz et al. (1) have reported the frequency of 22q11 deletions in a prospectively ascertained sample of 251 patients with conotruncal defects. Deletions were found in 17.9% of the patients, including 50% with interrupted aortic arch (IAA), 34.3% with truncus arteriosus (TA), and 15.9% with tetralogy of Fallot (TOF). Although this study was designed to determine the frequency of deletions i...
متن کاملAssessment of mitochondrial DNA copy number in peripheral blood leukocyte of opiate abusers and healthy individuals
Background: Based on the studies, variation in the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) copy number in peripheral blood leukocytes is associated with increased susceptibility to diseases including cancer. Opiate abusers are at high risk for diseases. In this study, we measured the mtDNA copy number in peripheral blood leukocytes in a group of opiate abusers compared with those in healthy individuals. Met...
متن کاملAnalysis of Copy Number Variations in Patients with Autism Using Cytogenetic and MLPA Techniques: Report of 16p13.1p13.3 and 10q26.3 Duplications
Autism is a common neuropsychiatric disorder affecting 1 in 68 children. Copy number variations (CNVs) are known to be major contributors of autism spectrum disorder (ASD). There are different whole genome or targeted techniques to identify CNVs in the patients including karyotyping, multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA) and array CGH. In this study, we used karyotyping and ML...
متن کاملA Discovery Resource of Rare Copy Number Variations in Individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder
The identification of rare inherited and de novo copy number variations (CNVs) in human subjects has proven a productive approach to highlight risk genes for autism spectrum disorder (ASD). A variety of microarrays are available to detect CNVs, including single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) arrays and comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) arrays. Here, we examine a cohort of 696 unrelated ASD...
