Микроделеционные и микродупликационные синдромы выявляются примерно у 8% плодов с врожденными пороками развития (ВПР), однако диагностика патогенных CNVs в пренатальном периоде в данный момент не регламентирована и зачастую основана на технических возможностях лаборатории. Представлены результаты исследования плодов, которые имели ВПР и/или маркеры хромосомной патологии, установленные по УЗИ, методом хромосомного микроматричного анализа (ХМА). В выборке (N=1048) у 10,3% плодов были обнаружены числовые аномалии хромосом и у 7,4% плодов были выявлены патогенные хромосомные аномалии, которые невозможно выявить при стандартном кариотипировани из-за их малого размера. Результаты нашего анализа согласуются с данными литературы, демонстрирующей большую эффективность SNP-микроматриц по сравнению с классическими цитогенетическими методами. Microdeletion and microduplication syndromes are detected in approximately 8% of fetuses with congenital malformations, however, the diagnosis of pathogenic CNVs in the prenatal period, at the moment, is unregulated and often based on the technical capabilities of the laboratory. The thesis presents the result of a study of fetuses that had congenital malformations and / or markers of chromosomal abnormalities, determined by ultrasound, by the method of chromosomal microarray analysis. Using chromosomal microarray analysis in our sample (N = 1048), numerical chromosome abnormalities were detected in 10.3% of the fetuses and pathogenic chromosome imbalance was revealed in 7.4% of the fetuses, which cannot be detected by standard karyotyping. The results of our analysis are consistent with the data of the scientific literature, which demonstrates the greater efficiency of using SNP microarrays in comparison with classical cytogenetic methods.

Introduction. The prevalence of congenital malformations (CMFs) in fetal central nervous system (CNS) ranges from 1.5 to 3 % and covers around 29 % among all malformations, whereas percentage in the structure of perinatal and infant mortality reaches 25–26 %.Aim: to estimate frequency of pathogenic copy number variations (CNVs) in fetuses with congenital malformations of CNS and normal karyotyping cytogenetic analysis.Materials and Methods. There were enrolled 42 pregnant women underwent invasive prenatal diagnostics in 2013–2019 due to ultrasound detection of congenital CNS defect in fetus. Fetal samples were studied by using chromosome microarray analysis (CMA).Results. Various pathogenic CNVs were detected in 7 (16.6 %) fetuses with prenatally diagnosed congenital CNS malformations. Non-syndrome pathogenic CNVs were detected in 85.7 %.Conclusion. Thus, performing chromosome microarray analysis as the first-line assay allows to diagnose not only aneuploidy, but also microdeletion/microduplication, the size of which below resolution threshold for standard cytogenetic karyotyping

AbstractChromosomal microdeletions and microduplications likely represent the main genetic etiologies for children with developmental delay or intellectual disability. Through prenatal chromosomal microarray analysis, some microdeletions or microduplications can be detected before birth to avoid unnecessary abortions or birth defects. Although some microdeletions or microduplications of chromosome 5 have been reported, numerous microduplications remain undescribed. We describe herein a case of a 30-year-old woman carrying a fetus with a chromosome 5q21.1–q21.3 microduplication. Because noninvasive prenatal testing indicated a fetal chromosome 5 abnormality, the patient underwent amniocentesis at 22 weeks 4 days of gestation. Karyotyping and chromosomal microarray analysis were performed on amniotic fluid cells. Fetal behavioral and structural abnormalities were assessed by color and pulsed Doppler ultrasound. Clinical characteristics of the newborn were assessed during the follow-up. The left lateral ventricle appeared widened on ultrasound, but the infant appeared normal at birth. The 5q21.1–q21.3 microduplication in the fetus was inherited from his mother. There are seven genes in this duplication region, but their main functions are unclear. According to this case report, microduplication in this region could represent a benign mutation. Clinicians should pay attention to the breakpoints and the genes involved when counseling patients with microdeletions and microduplications.

Background. Omphalocele is a rare congenital abdominal wall defect. It is frequently associated with genetic abnormality and other congenital anomalies, although isolated omphalocele cases do exist. Data have shown that omphalocele with co-occurring genetic abnormality has worse prognosis than isolated omphalocele. Chromosomal analysis by a conventional technique such as karyotyping can only detect aneuploidy and large segmental duplication or deletion. Newer techniques such as high-resolution microarray analysis allow for the study of alterations in chromosomal segments that are less than 5 Mb in length; this has led to identification of critical region and genes in the pathogenesis of omphalocele. Case Presentation. The current study is the initial report of a newborn male with a 15q23 gain and a giant omphalocele. High-resolution chromosomal microarray analysis identified this gain of copy number spanned 676 kb, involving almost the entire NOX5 gene (except for exon 1 of the longer transcript), the entirety of the EWSAT1, GLCE, PAQR5, KIF23, RPLP1, and DRAIC genes and exons 1–3 of the PCAT29 gene. Conclusion. To date, this is the first report of an associated 15q23 gain in a case with omphalocele. Interestingly, Giancarlo Ghiselli and Steven A Farber have reported that GLCE knockdown impairs abdominal wall closure in zebrafish. We also identified GLCE gene alteration in our case. This highlights the importance of GLCE in abdominal wall development. Further study of the function of GLCE and other genes might lead to a better understanding of the molecular mechanism of omphalocele.
