Cell-free fetal DNA and non-invasive prenatal diagnosis.
Currently in the UK, prenatal diagnosis of genetic conditions and Down’s syndrome requires invasive diagnostic tests such as amniocentesis and chorionic villus sampling (CVS). Procedural related miscarriage rates of about 1% have been quoted for these tests which are not usually done before 11 weeks’ gestation. Annually in the UK, 32 000 women have an invasive diagnostic test as a result of oth...
متن کاملNon-Invasive Prenatal Testing Using Cell Free DNA in Maternal Plasma: Recent Developments and Future Prospects
Recent advances in molecular genetic technologies have facilitated non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) through the analysis of cell-free fetal DNA in maternal plasma. NIPT can be used to identify monogenic disorders including the identification of autosomal recessive disorders where the maternally inherited mutation needs to be identified in the presence of an excess of maternal DNA that conta...
متن کاملNon-Invasive Prenatal RHD Genotyping Using Cell-Free Fetal DNA from Maternal Plasma: An Italian Experience.
BACKGROUND This study assessed the diagnostic accuracy of a non-invasive approach to fetal RHD genotyping using cell-free fetal DNA in maternal plasma and a combination of methodological strategies. METHODS Real-time PCR (qPCR) was performed on 216 RhD-negative women between weeks 10+0 and 14+6 of gestation (1st qPCR). qPCR was repeated (2nd qPCR) to increase the amount of each sample for ana...
متن کاملNon-invasive prenatal testing using cell-free fetal DNA in maternal circulation.
The identification of cell-free fetal DNA (cffDNA) in maternal circulation has made non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) possible. Maternal plasma cell free DNA is a mixture of maternal and fetal DNA, of which, fetal DNA represents a minor population in maternal plasma. Therefore, methods with high sensitivity and precision are required to detect and differentiate fetal DNA from the large backg...
متن کاملNon-invasive prenatal diagnosis of fetal trisomy 21 using cell-free fetal DNA in maternal blood
Since the existence of cell-free fetal DNA (cff-DNA) in maternal circulation was discovered, it has been identified as a promising source of fetal genetic material in the development of reliable methods for non-invasive prenatal diagnosis (NIPD) of fetal trisomy 21 (T21). Currently, a prenatal diagnosis of fetal T21 is achieved through invasive techniques, such as chorionic villus sampling or a...
