Benefits of genetic evaluation 1.What is the problem 2. Why did it happen 3. What will it mean for our baby 4. Will it happen again
Benefits of genetic evaluation Reproductive counseling: carrier testing, prenatal diagnosis Presymptomatic screening for associated complications Referral to support groups
How do you make a syndrome diagnosis? History Examination Investigations
Family history • Any relative with mental retardation or known malformations • Neonatal deaths, stillbirths or childhood deaths • Familial disorders or physical features • Consanguinity in parents • Ethnic background • Prior genetic testing or screening
History Family history– pedigree: what is the mode of inheritance? - AR, AD, XL, Y-linked, mitochondrial, trinucleotide repeat expansion
History Maternal health,vitamin supplements and drug use hydantoin
History Maternal health,vitamin supplements and drug use valproic acid
History Maternal health,vitamin supplements and drug use alcohol
History Pregnancy investigations: NT US Biochemical screening Amniocentesis Fetal MRI
Physical examination Height plot on appropriate growth chart
Physical examination Proportions U/L segment Arm span Hand length
Physical examination Posture and tone: trisomy 18 PWS
Physical examination Facial expression: Angelman syndrome
Physical examination Movements and behavior: Rett syndrome
Physical examination Characteristic personality: Williams syndrome
Molecular tests (sequencing, specific mutation testing) CHG arrays, SNP arrays, MLPA Karyotype, FISH, low-resolution CGH
Chromosomal structure Subtelomeric regions Subtelomeric regions
Cytogenetic tests - karyotype • Indications: • Mental retardation • Dysmorphic features • Major anomaly • Recurrent spontaneous abortions • Family history of multiple affected individuals with MR/malformations 5-10 Mb resolution (300-600 cytogenetic bands)
Cytogenetic tests – high resolution karyotype Indications: High suspicion of chromosomal anomaly
Microdeletions and microduplications DiGeorge/VCFS Williams Smith-Magenis Miller-Dieker lissencephaly Rubinstein-Taybi Wolf-Hirshhorn
Cytogenetic tests – FISH (Fluorescent in situ hybridization) Fluorescence in situhybridization (FISH) Need to suspect a specific diagnosis!
Cytogenetic tests – FISH • Indications: • Detects specific microdeletions/microduplications • Quick test for detection of abnormal chromosome number (pregnancy)
Di George/VCFS Aortic arch abnormalities Hypocalcemia Cleft palate Immunodeficiency Developmental delay Psychiatric disorders
Williams syndrome Characteristic facies Supravalvular AS Hypercalcemia Microcephaly Kidney abnormalities Musculoskeletal problems Developmental delay
Cytogenetic tests – subtelomeric FISH Indications: Mental retardation/dysmorphic features/congenital anomalies Familial cases (especially if variable clinical features Detects deletions/duplications of the subtelomeric regions
SKY – spectral karyotyping Indications: Unidentified chromosomal marker Multiple chromosomal translocations
Molecular cytogenetic techniques Array CGH SNP array
Molecular cytogenetic techniques Array CGH Genomic rearrangements detectable by array CGH: 10-15% in patients with syndromic MR Depends on the stringency of the clinical criteria
Array CGH – resolution Various levels of resolution: the higher the resolution, the higher the detection rate • Targeted array • 1 Mb resolution (aCGH with 3,000-3,500 BAC clones) • 10-100 kb resolution (aCGH with 32,447 BACs/oligos) • Exon aCGH (all ~250,000 exons in human genome)
Array CGH Indications: Mental retardation/dysmorphic features/congenital anomalies Detection of microdeletions, microduplications No need for specific diagnosis
Copy number variants (CNVs) How much copy number variations (CNVs) exist? What is the contribution of copy number variation to genetic disease? What role has copy number variation played in recent human evolution?

SNP array Density – 10K, 50/100K, 500K
DNA tests • Direct mutation analysis • DNA sequencing • Specific mutation analysis • Deletion analysis • Linkage analysis – utilization of traceable gene markers next to the gene of interest
Deletion testing – MLPA (Multiplex Ligation-dependent Probe Amplification )
Linkage analysis • Looks for pattern of DNA markers near gene of interest that segregate with disease • Requires DNA analysis of multiple family members 1, 2 3, 4 1, 3 1, 4 2, 3 2, 4 1 2 3 4
