Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a neurodegenerative disorder, being the second most common lethal autosomal recessive disease in Caucasians, after cystic fibrosis. There are three clinically different types of which type I (W...
متن کاملFirst successful preimplantation genetic diagnosis in Singapore--avoidance of beta-thalassaemia major.
INTRODUCTION We report on the first successful preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) in Singapore. CLINICAL PICTURE A couple who are beta-thalassaemia carriers and have an affected daughter requested for PGD. TREATMENT Two cycles of PGD were performed on the couple. Beta-thalassaemia mutations were detected using a nested PCR and minisequencing strategy, and unaffected embryos were select...
متن کاملIndirect Molecular Diagnosis of Congenital Factor ΧІІІ Deficiency by Candidate Microsatellites and Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms
Background: Congenital factor XIII (FXIII) deficiency is one of the rarest bleeding disorders with a prevalence of one per 2 million in the general population. The disorder is accompanied by a high rate of life-threatening bleeding. Due to normal results of routine coagulation tests, diagnosis of the disorder is challenging, but molecular methods can be used for precise diagnosis. Direct mutati...
متن کاملPreimplantation genetic diagnosis for medium-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (MCAD) deficiency.
Medium-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (MCAD) deficiency is the most common defect in fatty acid oxidation. The disease is inherited in an autosomal recessive fashion (carrier frequency around 1 in 70) and probably affects as many as 1 in 10000 new-borns. Affected children usually present within the two first years of life with recurrent episodes of hypoketotic hypoglycaemia and lethargy leading t...
متن کاملThe first successful live birth following preimplantation genetic diagnosis using PCR for type 1 citrullinemia
Type 1 citrullinemia (CTLN1) is an autosomal recessive inherited metabolic disorder caused by anargininosuccinicnate synthetase deficiency. The patient was a 38-year-old Korean woman who is a carrier for CTLN1 and her first baby was diagnosed with CTLN1. Preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) for CTLN1 in day 3 embryos using polymerase chain reaction was performed for live birth of healthy bab...
