SNParray and MS-MLPA, allowed the determination of segmental UPD(14)mat and the hypomethylation of MEG3 gene. Additionally, in one of our patients we also observed by cytogenetics a small supernumerary marker c
Chromosome mosaicismis well recognized in singleton pregnancies. Many majorchromosomal disordersare only viable when mosaic as otherwise they are lethal. Examples include triploid/diploid mosaics,trisomy 8, 9, 14, and 16 and chromosome disorders such as Pallister Killian syndrome with a mosaicisochromosom...
This is apparently the largest distal 14q duplication reported in a case surviving beyond the first trimester. The infant apipeared to have an association of clinical abnormalities previously observed in distal 14q trisomy and proximal 14q trisomy/mosaic trisomy 14.doi:10.1002/pd.1970100409...
Mosaic Turner syndromeIt is different from Turner syndrome. In mosaic turner syndrome, different body cells have different chromosomal constitutions, some cells have X chromosome while other cells don’t have X chromosome. History and analysis techniques ...

The discussion on sex chromosome and X-linked disorders is combined in one chapter because cytogenetic techniques used in diagnosis are common to both. The relatively few sex chromosome disorders occur commonly (see below) but are mostly not associated with fatality or severe mental retardation. In...
(non-mosaic) aneuploidies. We detected 7 cases with Down syndrome (trisomy 21) and 18 with gonosomal aneuploidies, including 9 with Klinefelter syndrome (47,XXY), 6 with triple X syndrome (47,XXX) and 3 with XYY syndrome (47,XYY) (Supplementary Data3). We found an association of ...
Furthermore, this approach was able to produce a targeted autosome loss in aneuploid mouse embryonic stem cells with an extra human chromosome and human induced pluripotent stem cells with trisomy 21, as well as cancer cells. Conclusions CRISPR/Cas9-mediated targeted chromosome elimination offers a ...
While disruption of XCI could be detrimental to females as it disrupts dosage compensation, the mosaic nature as a result of XCI could give them a distinct advantage over males [14,37]. Deleterious X-linked mutations have large effects and could lead to death or disease in males due to th...
such as the extra chromosome in individuals who have trisomy 21. Two other methods involve treating chromosomes in various ways before staining with Giemsa. Giemsa or G-band patterns are essentially identical to Q-band patterns; reverse Giemsa or R-band patterns are the reverse, or reciprocal, ...
