Molecular diagnosis of sex chromosome aneuploidy using quantitative PCR.
Numeric sex chromosome imbalances, or aneuploidies, are present in several pathological conditions including tumors, abnormal gestations, and clinical syndromes. Here we report a method to identify karyotypic imbalances of the X and Y chromosomes using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The polymerase chain reaction was used to quantitatively coamplify the sex chromosome linked genes ZFX and ...
متن کاملRapid Diagnosis of Aneuploidy Using Segmental Duplication Quantitative Fluorescent PCR
The aim of this study was use a simple and rapid procedure, called segmental duplication quantitative fluorescent polymerase chain reaction (SD-QF-PCR), for the prenatal diagnosis of fetal chromosomal aneuploidies. This method is based on the co-amplification of segmental duplications located on two different chromosomes using a single pair of fluorescent primers. The PCR products of different ...
متن کاملX chromosome dosage by quantitative fluorescent PCR and rapid prenatal diagnosis of sex chromosome aneuploidies.
During the past few years, rapid prenatal diagnosis of chromosome aneuploidies has been successfully achieved by quantitative fluorescent PCR (QF-PCR) amplification of chromosome-specific small tandem repeats (STR). This approach has proven to be very useful in clinical settings, since it allows the detection of major numerical disorders in a few hours after sampling. For the detection of Turne...
متن کاملEstablishment of a 10-Plex Quantitative Fluorescent-PCR Assay for Rapid Diagnosis of Sex Chromosome Aneuploidies
Sex chromosome aneuploidies occur commonly in the general population, with an incidence of 1 in 400 newborns. However, no tests specifically targeting sex chromosomes have been carried out in prenatal diagnosis or newborn screening, resulting in late recognition of these diseases. In this study, a rapid diagnostic method for sex chromosome aneuploidies was established using Quantitative Fluores...
متن کاملSex Chromosome Aneuploidy: Prospective Studies on Children
This two-volume publication contains the proceedings of a NATO Advanced Study Institute, held in April 1978. The material is organized in five sections. In the first section J. Bonner presents a historic review of chromatin research. The following section describes biophysical and chemical methods used in the study of isolated chromatin, such as electron microscopy, circular dichroism, X-ray di...
