SUMMARY Objective: To present prenatal diagnosis and molecular cytogenetic characterization of de novo partial mono- somy 1p (1p36.23pter) and partial trisomy 20p (20p12.1pter) associated with ventriculomegaly, ventricu- lar septal defect and midface hypoplasia. Materials, Methods and Results: A 31-year-old, primigravid woman was referred for amniocentesis at 20 ges- tational weeks because of ventriculomegaly, ventricular septal defect, and midface hypoplasia. Amniocentesis revealed an aberrant derivative chromosome 1, or der(1). Parental karyotypes were normal. Spectral karyotyping analysis revealed that the der(1) contained a segment of chromosome 20 in the distal end of the short arm of chromosome 1. Array comparative genomic hybridization demonstrated an 8.4-Mb distal 1p deletion and a 14-Mb distal 20p duplication. The karyotype was 46,XX,der(1)t(1;20)(p36.23;p12.1)dn. Polymorphic DNA marker analysis determined the paternal origin of the aberrant chromosome. The pregnancy was subsequently ter- minated. A 462-g malformed female fetus was delivered at 22 gestational weeks with a prominent forehead, midface hypoplasia, a flat nasal bridge, low-set ears, a long philtrum, a pointed chin and micrognathia. Conclusion: Spectral karyotyping, fluorescence in situ hybridization and array comparative genomic hybridiza- tion are useful for the prenatal investigation of the nature of a de novo aberrant derivative chromosome. Partial monosomy 1p (1p36.23pter) and partial trisomy 20p (20p12.1pter) are associated with ventriculomegaly, ventricular septal defect and midface hypoplasia on prenatal ultrasound. Prenatal diagnosis of ventriculomegaly, congenital heart defects and midface hypoplasia should alert clinicians to chromosome 1p36 deletion syndrome and prompt molecular cytogenetic analysis if necessary.

  • RARE CHROMOSOME DISORDERS the Term, ‘Rare Chromosome Disorders’, Refers to Conditions Which
    INFORMATION SHEET Page 1 COMPLEX LEARNING DIFFICULTIES AND DISABILITIES RESEARCH PROJECT (CLDD) RARE CHROMOSOME DISORDERS The term, ‘rare chromosome disorders’, refers to conditions which: 1. occur due to missing, duplicated or re-arranged chromosome material 2. have a low prevalence rate (thus not including chromosomal disorders such as Down syndrome). Chromosomes are structures found in the nuclei of cells in human bodies. Each chromosome contains thousands of genes which determine how we grow and develop. A typically developing person will have 23 pairs of chromosomes with one member of each pair being inherited from each parent, giving a total of 46 individual chromosomes. Two of these are the sex chromosomes which determine whether we are female (XX) or male (XY). The remaining 44 chromosomes are grouped in 22 pairs, numbered 1 to 22. The arms of a chromosome are called ‘p’ (shorter arm) and ‘q’ (long arm) (see Figure 1); these arms are separated into numerical regions, which in turn are divided into bands and sub-bands. p q Figure 1. Diagram of a chromosome Individually, rare chromosome disorders are extremely uncommon, with some being actually unique; however, collectively rare chromosome disorders make up at least one in every 200 live births, with babies either having symptoms from birth or early childhood, or being carriers of a chromosomal abnormality and experiencing the effects when they try to reproduce in later life (Searle and Hultén, 2009). Recent advances in technology and medical expertise has meant that chromosomes can be viewed at ever increasing magnifications, which is resulting in the detection of more complex defects.

    Stagi et al. BMC Medical Genetics 2014, 15:16 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2350/15/16 CASE REPORT Open Access Type II diabetes and impaired glucose tolerance due to severe hyperinsulinism in patients with 1p36 deletion syndrome and a Prader-Willi-like phenotype Stefano Stagi1,4*, Elisabetta Lapi2, Marilena Pantaleo2, Francesco Chiarelli3, Salvatore Seminara1 and Maurizio de Martino1 Abstract Background: Deletion of the subtelomeric region of 1p36 is one of the most common subtelomeric deletion syndromes. In monosomy 1p36, the presence of obesity is poorly defined, and glucose metabolism deficiency is rarely reported. However, the presence of a typical Prader-Willi-like phenotype in patients with monosomy 1p36 is controversial. Case presentation: In this report, we describe two female patients, one who is 6 years 2 months of age and another whois10years1monthofage,bothreferredtoourhospitalforobesity and a Prader-Willi-like phenotype. These patients presented with severe obesity (body mass index [BMI] was 26.4 and 27.7, respectively), hyperphagia and developmental delay. Analysis of basal hormone levels showed normal thyroid function and adrenal function but considerable basal hyperinsulinism (the insulin levels were 54.5 and 49.2 μU/ml, respectively). In patient 1, glycaemia was 75 mg/dl (HOMA-R 10.09), and the HbA1c level was 6.1%; in patient 2, glycaemia was 122 mg/dl, and the HbA1c level was 6.6% (HOMA-R 14.82). An oral glucose tolerance test demonstratedimpairedglucosetoleranceanddiabetes mellitus with marked insulin resistance (the peak insulin level for each patient was 197 and 279 μU/mL, respectively, while the 120’ insulin level of each patient was 167 and 234 μU/mL, respectively).

I’ve just returned from Unique’s most recent family conference in Bristol where 150 of us parents and carers had a lovely time in workshops, meals and activities, chatting and watching our children milling around together like one big family since – although we had never met before – we have shared so many experiences in common. However in contrast I have also just met a new mum who has just moved to my area from far away with two toddlers, one with a rare joys of the internet, it is becoming easier to meet others with similar, chromosome disorder, who is starting from scratch with no even very rare, chromosome disorders around the world and to find professional, medical or social support. She reminds me of how yourself talking to them in the middle of the night about some lonely I felt when Max was newly diagnosed, when I knew no one interesting things our children share in common (obsession with with a disabled child let alone anyone with a rare chromosome catalogues, anyone?)

This result should be confirmed by a diagnostic test. Dependent on fetal fraction, 7 to 17% of pregnancies classified as HIGH RISK are found to have 1p36 deletion syndrome. TEST INFORMATION: Non-Invasive Prenatal Testing for Fetal Aneuploidy (Powered by Constellation) with or without Microdeletions METHODOLOGY: DNA isolated from the maternal blood, which contains placental DNA, is amplified at 13,300+ loci using a targeted PCR assay and sequenced using a high-throughput sequencer. Sequence data are analyzed using Natera's Constellation software to estimate the fetal copy number and identify whole chromosome abnormalities for chromosomes 13, 18, 21, X, and Y as well as fetal sex. Barring QC failures and fetal fractions below the performance limits of the algorithm, the minimum confidence threshold is 0.98 for a high risk call. For both low risk and high risk calls, the majority of specimens will have a confidence of >0.99 across all regions tested. If a sample fails to meet the quality threshold, no result will be reported for one or more chromosomes. Microdeletions: An additional 6,600+ loci are amplified to estimate the fetal copy numbers of chromosomal regions attributed to 22q11.2, Prader-Willi, Angelman, Cri-du-chat, and 1p36 deletion syndromes.

    NON-INVASIVE PRENATAL SCREENING FOR MICRODELETION SYNDROMES HALL 1 PANORAMA™ NON-INVASIVE PRENATAL SCREENING FOR MICRODELETION SYNDROMES MEGAN P. HALL, PH.D. INTRODUCTION PanoramaTM is a non-invasive prenatal screening test for fetal chromosomal anomalies. The screening test analyzes fetal cell-free DNA (cfDNA) isolated from maternal plasma and can be performed as early as 9 weeks of gestation with high accuracy. Panorama was originally designed to screen for Trisomy 21 (Down syndrome), Trisomy 18 (Edwards syndrome), Trisomy 13 (Patau syndrome), Monosomy X (Turner syndrome), sex chromosome trisomies, triploidy and, if requested, fetal sex (1-5). Recently, the clinical scope of Panorama was expanded to include screening for five microdeletion syndromes. This Panorama Extended Panel now screens for the 22q11.2 deletion (DiGeorge), 1p36 deletion, Cri-du-chat, Prader-Willi, and Angelman deletions. Validation studies have demonstrated sensitivities of greater than 93% and specificities of greater than 99% for each microdeletion condition. MICRODELETION PREVALENCE AND TRADITIONAL MICRODELETION DETECTION Clinically relevant microdeletions and microduplications are more common than previously thought, occurring in up to 1 in 60 pregnancies, and can occur in pregnancies lacking ultrasound anomalies (6). The combined at-birth incidence of the 5 microdeletion syndromes covered by this screening test is approximately 1 in 1,000 (7-11), approaching the overall rate observed for Down syndrome (12). The most common microdeletion, 22q11.2 deletion, is more common than Edwards syndrome and Patau syndrome combined, and is more common than cystic fibrosis (Figure 1)(10,12,13). Further, the risk for microdeletions is independent of maternal age, unlike whole chromosome aneuploidies like Trisomy 21 (Down syndrome) that are more prevalent in women of advanced maternal age.
