EXTENDED CARRIER SCREENING Peace of Mind for Planned Pregnancies
Focusing on Personalised Medicine EXTENDED CARRIER SCREENING Peace of Mind for Planned Pregnancies Extended carrier screening is an important tool for prospective parents to help them determine their risk of having a child affected with a heritable disease. In many cases, parents aren’t aware they are carriers and have no family history due to the rarity of some diseases in the general population. What is covered by the screening? Genomics For Life offers a comprehensive Extended Carrier Screening test, providing prospective parents with the information they require when planning their pregnancy. Extended Carrier Screening has been shown to detect carriers who would not have been considered candidates for traditional risk- based screening. With a simple mouth swab collection, we are able to test for over 419 genes associated with inherited diseases, including Fragile X Syndrome, Cystic Fibrosis and Spinal Muscular Atrophy. The assay has been developed in conjunction with clinical molecular geneticists, and includes genes listed in the NIH Genetic Test Registry. For a list of genes and disorders covered, please see the reverse of this brochure. If your gene of interest is not covered on our Extended Carrier Screening panel, please contact our friendly team to assist you in finding a gene test panel that suits your needs. Why have Extended Carrier Screening? Extended Carrier Screening prior to pregnancy enables couples to learn about their reproductive risk and consider a complete range of reproductive options, including whether or not to become pregnant, whether to use advanced reproductive technologies, such as preimplantation genetic diagnosis, or to use donor gametes. -

We utilized an informatics-based approach to develop a transcriptional signature of β-cell GA stress using existing RNA sequencing and microarray datasets generated using human islets from donors with diabetes and islets where type 1(T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) had been modeled ex vivo. To narrow our results to GA-specific genes, we applied a filter set of 1,030 genes accepted as GA associated. -

Binding Pattern Elucidation of NNK and NNAL Cigarette Smoke Carcinogens with NER Pathway Enzymes: an Onco-Informatics Study
DOI:http://dx.doi.org/10.7314/APJCP.2015.16.13.5311 Binding Pattern of Cigarette Smoke Carcinogens NNK and NNAL with NER Pathway Enzymes: an Onco-informatics Study RESEARCH ARTICLE Binding Pattern Elucidation of NNK and NNAL Cigarette Smoke Carcinogens with NER Pathway Enzymes: an Onco- Informatics Study Qazi Mohammad Sajid Jamal1, Anupam Dhasmana2, Mohtashim Lohani2*, Sumbul Firdaus2, Md Yousuf Ansari3,4, Ganesh Chandra Sahoo3,4, Shafiul Haque5 Abstract Cigarette smoke derivatives like NNK (4-(Methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanone) and NNAL (4-(methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butan-1-ol) are well-known carcinogens. We analyzed the interaction of enzymes involved in the NER (nucleotide excision repair) pathway with ligands (NNK and NNAL). Binding was characterized for the enzymes sharing equivalent or better interaction as compared to +Ve control. The highest obtained docking energy between NNK and enzymes RAD23A, CCNH, CDK7, and CETN2 were -7.13 kcal/mol, -7.27 kcal/mol, -8.05 kcal/mol and -7.58 kcal/mol respectively. Similarly the highest obtained docking energy between NNAL and enzymes RAD23A, CCNH, CDK7, and CETN2 were -7.46 kcal/mol, -7.94 kcal/mol, -7.83 kcal/mol and -7.67 kcal/mol respectively. In order to find out the effect of NNK and NNAL on enzymes involved in the NER pathway applying protein-protein interaction and protein-complex (i.e. enzymes docked with NNK/ NNAL) interaction analysis. It was found that carcinogens are well capable to reduce the normal functioning of genes like RAD23A (HR23A), CCNH, CDK7 and CETN2. In silico analysis indicated loss of functions of these genes and their corresponding enzymes, which possibly might be a cause for alteration of DNA repair pathways leading to damage buildup and finally contributing to cancer formation. -

We report on a girl born to healthy consanguineous parents (first cousins once removed) with anal imperforation and associated rectovaginal fistula and partial sacral agenesis. Facial dysmorphism included a high forehead, epicanthic folds, downslanting palpebral fissures, hypertelorism and a depressed nasal root. Brain MRI showed a bilateral opercular dysplasia with a unilateral (right) pachygyria; MRI and X-ray imaging of the spine disclosed a tethered cord associated with partial sacral agenesis. She showed a moderate developmental delay. Ophthalmologic examination evidenced bilateral microphthalmos and relative microcornea. Cytogenetic studies in our patient disclosed a pure de novo 6q25.3-qter deletion. -

Blueprint Genetics Ectodermal Dysplasia Panel
Ectodermal Dysplasia Panel Test code: DE0401 Is a 25 gene panel that includes assessment of non-coding variants. Is ideal for patients with a clinical suspicion of ectodermal dysplasia (hidrotic or hypohidrotic) or Ellis-van Creveld syndrome. About Ectodermal Dysplasia Ectodermal Dysplasia (ED) is a group of closely related conditions of which more than 150 different syndromes have been identified. EDs affects the development or function of teeth, hair, nails and sweat glands. ED may present as isolated or as part of a syndromic disease and is commonly subtyped according to sweating ability. The clinical features of the X-linked and autosomal forms of hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia (HED) can be indistinguishable and many of the involved genes may lead to phenotypically distinct outcomes depending on number of defective alleles. The most common EDs are hypohidrotic ED and hydrotic ED. X-linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia (HED) is caused by EDA mutations and explain 75%-95% of familial HED and 50% of sporadic cases. HED is characterized by three cardinal features: hypotrichosis (sparse, slow-growing hair and sparse/missing eyebrows), reduced sweating and hypodontia (absence or small teeth). Reduced sweating poses risk for episodes of hyperthermia. Female carriers may have some degree of hypodontia and mild hypotrichosis. Isolated dental phenotypes have also been described. Mutations in WNT10A have been reported in up to 9% of individuals with HED and in 25% of individuals with HED who do not have defective EDA. Approximately 50% of individuals with heterozygous WNT10A mutation have HED and the most consistent clinical feature is severe oligodontia of permanent teeth. -

Novel Mutation of Type 1 Insulin-Like Growth Factor Receptor (IGF1R) Gene in a Severe Short Stature Pedigree Identified by Targeted Next-Generation Sequencing
Research Article Novel mutation of type 1 insulin-like growth factor receptor (IGF1R) gene in a severe short stature pedigree identified by targeted next-generation sequencing Running title: Novel mutation of type I insulin-like growth factor receptor Yu Yang1*, Hui Huang2, Ka Chen2, Li Yang1, Li-ling Xie1, Ting Xiong1, and Xian Wu1 1Department of Endocrinology, Metabolism, and Genetics, Jiangxi Provincial Children’s Hospital, Nanchang 330006, Jiangxi, China 2Central laboratory, Jiangxi Provincial Children’s Hospital, Nanchang 330006, Jiangxi, China *Corresponding author: Yu Yang, Department of Endocrinology, Metabolism, and Genetics, Jiangxi Provincial Children’s Hospital, 1 No. 122 Yangming Road Donghu District, Nanchang 330006, Jiangxi, China E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Background: Insulin-like growth factor receptor IGF-1R deficiency is a rare form of short stature, and is difficult to clinically diagnose. Targeted next-generation sequencing (NGS) allows for the rapid and inexpensive assessment of short stature. Case presentation: We identified mutations in the pedigree of a Chinese boy with severe short stature using targeted NGS; we then assessed the clinical characteristics and evaluated the efficacy of growth hormone therapy. NGS analysis revealed a novel heterozygous missense mutation in exon3 (c.926C>T, p.S309L) of the type I IGF-1R gene in the proband, which was inherited from the mother. The proband, mother, and grandfather suffered from severe growth failure. After recombinant human growth hormone therapy, the patient’s growth rate increased. Conclusions: The novel missense mutation in IGF1R (c.926C>T, p.S309L), is associated with severe short stature in Chinese individuals. Targeted NGS may enable efficient diagnosis and genetic consultation of children with short stature. -
Xeroderma Pigmentosum
Xeroderma pigmentosum Description Xeroderma pigmentosum, which is commonly known as XP, is an inherited condition characterized by an extreme sensitivity to ultraviolet (UV) rays from sunlight. This condition mostly affects the eyes and areas of skin exposed to the sun. Some affected individuals also have problems involving the nervous system. The signs of xeroderma pigmentosum usually appear in infancy or early childhood. Many affected children develop a severe sunburn after spending just a few minutes in the sun. The sunburn causes redness and blistering that can last for weeks. Other affected children do not get sunburned with minimal sun exposure, but instead tan normally. By age 2, almost all children with xeroderma pigmentosum develop freckling of the skin in sun-exposed areas (such as the face, arms, and lips); this type of freckling rarely occurs in young children without the disorder. In affected individuals, exposure to sunlight often causes dry skin (xeroderma) and changes in skin coloring (pigmentation). This combination of features gives the condition its name, xeroderma pigmentosum. People with xeroderma pigmentosum have a greatly increased risk of developing skin cancer. Without sun protection, about half of children with this condition develop their first skin cancer by age 10. Most people with xeroderma pigmentosum develop multiple skin cancers during their lifetime. These cancers occur most often on the face, lips, and eyelids. Cancer can also develop on the scalp, in the eyes, and on the tip of the tongue. Studies suggest that people with xeroderma pigmentosum may also have an increased risk of other types of cancer, including brain tumors.
