Синдром инвертированной дупликации короткого плеча хромосомы 8 со смежной терминальной делециенй (inv dup del(8p), ORPHA 96092) - редкая хромосомная аномалия (ХА) с частотой 1/10000-1/30000 живорожденных. В статье представлены клинические и молекулярно-цитогенетические характеристики двух неродственных пациентов с синдромом inv dup del(8p) и уточнены механизмы формирования хромосомного дисбаланса. Inverted duplication deletion 8p syndrome (inv dup del(8p), ORPHA 96092) is a rare chromosomal abnormality with a frequency of 1:10,000 - 30,000 newborns. Clinical manifestations of this syndrome include mental retardation, facial anomalies, hypoplasia/agenesis of corpus callosum, scoliosis and/or kyphosis, hypotonia, congenital heart defects. The article presents the clinical and molecular cytogenetic characteristics of two patients with inv dup del (8p) syndrome and clarifies the formation mechanisms.

ABSTRACTHuman papillomavirus (HPV) is the etiological agent for all cervical cancers, a significant number of other anogenital cancers, and a growing number of head and neck cancers. Two licensed vaccines offer protection against the most prevalent oncogenic types, 16 and 18, responsible for approximately 70% of cervical cancer cases worldwide and one of these also offers protection against types 6 and 11, responsible for 90% of genital warts. The vaccines are comprised of recombinantly expressed major capsid proteins that self-assemble into virus-like particles (VLPs) and prevent infection by eliciting neutralizing antibodies. Adding the other frequently identified oncogenic types 31, 33, 45, 52, and 58 to a vaccine would increase the coverage against HPV-induced cancers to approximately 90%. We describe the generation and characterization of panels of monoclonal antibodies to these five additional oncogenic HPV types, and the selection of antibody pairs that were high affinity and type specific and recognized conformation-dependent neutralizing epitopes. Such characteristics make these antibodies useful tools for monitoring the production and potency of a prototype vaccine as well as monitoring vaccine-induced immune responses in the clinic.
