Initial approaches to prenatal diagnosis from fetal karyotyping involved application of standard cytogenetic techniques. However, when fetal samples, such as chorionic villus cells or amniocytes are used, small chromosome rearrangements cannot be easily identified because they lack a distinct bandin

We describe a de novo dup 17p11 in a boy with Alport syndrome, mild mental retardation, and minor anomalies. Combining classical and molecular cytogenetics analyses, the karyotype was defined as 46,XY.ish dup (17)(p11.2p11.2)(D17S29++,D17S379+). Alport syndrome is associated with mutations in the ty
## Case of Schwachman's Syndrome With Intermittent Neutropenia and Lymphocyte Subset Disturbances To the Editor: Schwachman's syndrome, a familial disease transmitted as an autosomal-recessive trait, is characterized by moderate chronic neutropenia, marked marrow hypocellularity, occasional thromb
DNA amplification is an important mechanism of tumor progression that allows cancer cells to up-regulate the expression of critical genes such as oncogenes and genes conferring drug resistance. Recent studies using comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) revealed increased DNA copies of 20q sequence
