چکیده

this study determines the value of linkage analysis using six rflp markers for carrier detection and prenatal diagnosis in familial dmd/bmd cases and their family members for the first time in the iranian population. we studied the dystrophin gene in 33 unrelated patients with clinical diagnosis of dmd or bmd. subsequently, we determined the rate of heterozygosity for six intragenic rflp markers in the mothers of patients with dystrophin gene deletions. finally, we studied the efficiency of linkage analysis by using rflp markers for carrier status detection of dmd/bmd. in 63.6% of the patients we found one or more deletions. the most common heterozygous rflp marker with 57.1% heterozygosity was pert87.15taq1. more than 80% of mothers in two groups of familial or non-familial cases had at least two heterozygous markers. family linkage analysis was informative in more than 80% of the cases, allowing for accurate carrier detection. we found that linkage analysis using these six rflp markers for carrier detection and prenatal diagnosis is a rapid, easy, reliable, and inexpensive method, suitable for most routine diagnostic services. the heterozygosity frequency of these markers is high enough in the iranian population to allow carrier detection and prenatal diagnosis of dmd/bmd in more than 80% of familial cases in iran.

Linkage analysis of French families with facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy.

Linkage analysis was undertaken in seven French families with facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD). Six polymorphic DNA probes were studied, including random DNA sequences, coding sequences, and a hypervariable marker. No evidence for linkage of these probes to the disease was detected, and the results exclude probable location of the FSHD gene from three chromosomal regions (16p, prox...

Detection of carriers of benign X-linked muscular dystrophy.

From the point of view of genetic counselling carrier detection is most important in X-linked disorders. Okinaka et al. (1959) were the first to employ the serum level of creatine kinase to detect female carriers of X-linked Duchenne muscular dystrophy. Since then many investigators have confirmed the usefulness and reliability of this test. So far results on over 200 carriers have been reporte...
