May spina bifida result from an X-linked defect in a selective abortion mechanism?
It is suggested that the major genetic factor in determining the birth of children with neural tube defects may be a single X-linked gene. It acts as an X-linked dominant, not by producing neural tube defects, but by enabling the affected fetus to survive selective spontaneous abortion. This mechanism, mediated at the deciduoplacental junction, may be under the control of both maternal and feta...

Background: Working pregnant women are exposed to numerous occupational exposures, some of which may adversely affect their reproductive health. We aimed to review the effects of maternal occupational exposures and adverse effects on the infants. Materials and Methods: In this ov...
متن کاملMethylenetetrahydrofolate reductase and transcobalamin genetic polymorphisms in human spontaneous abortion: biological and clinical implications
The pathogenesis of human spontaneous abortion involves a complex interaction of several genetic and environmental factors. The firm association between increased homocysteine concentration and neural tube defects (NTD) has led to the hypothesis that high concentrations of homocysteine might be embryotoxic and lead to decreased fetal viability. There are several genetic polymorphisms that are a...
متن کاملArea differences in spontaneous abortion rates in South Wales and their relation to neural tube defect incidence.
Data are presented from the South Wales Congenital Malformation Survey (92,982 births 1964-6 inclusive) showing that within areas in South Wales there exists an inverse relation between previous spontaneous abortion rate and the prevalence at birth of neural tube defect (anencephaly or spina bifida cystica or both). This relation is independent of social class, parity, and maternal age, and is ...
متن کاملImplication of Genetic Factors in Neural Tube Defects Etiology
Neural tube defects are a group of developmental abnormalities that results from failure of fusion of the caudal neural tube, representing one of the most common group of malformations of human structure. The etiology is thought to be multifactorial in the vast majority of the cases, but other possible causes are heterogeneous and include chromosome abnormalities, single gene disorders and tera...
