Uniparental disomy and prenatal phenotype
RATIONALE Uniparental disomy (UPD) gives a description of the inheritance of both homologues of a chromosome pair from the same parent. The consequences of UPD depend on the specific chromosome/segment involved and its parental origin. PATIENT CONCERNS We report prenatal phenotypes of 2 rare cases of UPD. DIAGNOSES The prenatal phenotype of case 1 included sonographic markers such as enlarg...
متن کاملCCMG guidelines: prenatal and postnatal diagnostic testing for uniparental disomy.
The aim of this statement is to provide clinicians, cytogeneticists and molecular geneticists of the Canadian College of Medical Geneticists (CCMG) a comprehensive review of the role of UPD in constitutional genetic diagnosis and to provide a guideline as to when investigation for UPD is recommended. Members of the CCMG Cytogenetics, Molecular Genetics, Clinical Practice, and Prenatal Diagnosis...
متن کاملPrader-Willi syndrome: the psychopathological phenotype in uniparental disomy.
P rader-Willi syndrome (PWS) is a neurogenetic disorder resulting from the absence of a normal paternal contribution to the chromosome 15q11-13 region. The clinical manifestations of PWS are: reduced fetal activity during pregnancy, a transient severe hypotonia and feeding problems in the neonatal period, a variable degree of mental retardation, hyperphagia, obsessive compulsive features such a...
متن کاملReciprocal uniparental disomy in yeast.
In the diploid cells of most organisms, including humans, each chromosome is usually distinguishable from its partner homolog by multiple single-nucleotide polymorphisms. One common type of genetic alteration observed in tumor cells is uniparental disomy (UPD), in which a pair of homologous chromosomes are derived from a single parent, resulting in loss of heterozygosity for all single-nucleoti...
متن کاملComplex and segmental uniparental disomy updated.
OBJECTIVE To review all cases with segmental and/or complex uniparental disomy (UPD) and to discuss the impact of these cases on medical genetics. DESIGN Searching for published reports in PubMed and in the abstract books of the annual meetings of the American Society of Human Genetics and the European Society of Human Genetics up to March 2008. RESULTS In total, 26 cases with segmental UPD...
