Genomic microarrays in the spotlight.
Microarray-based comparative genomic hybridization (array-CGH) has emerged as a revolutionary platform, enabling the high-resolution detection of DNA copy number aberrations. In this article we outline the use and limitations of genomic clones, cDNA clones and PCR products as targets for genomic microarray construction. Furthermore, the applications and future aspects of these arrays for DNA co...
متن کاملChromosomal Microarrays in Prenatal Diagnosis: Time for a Change of Policy?
Microarrays have replaced conventional karyotyping as a first-tier test for unbalanced chromosome anomalies in postnatal cytogenetics mainly due to their unprecedented resolution facilitating the detection of submicroscopic copy number changes at a rate of 10-20% depending on indication for testing. A number of studies have addressed the performance of microarrays for chromosome analyses in hig...
متن کاملPrenatal diagnosis of genomic disorders and chromosome abnormalities using array-based comparative genomic hybridization.
Cytogenetic analysis is a crucial tool of prenatal diagnosis. The ability to rapidly detect aneuploidy and identify small structural abnormalities of foetal chromosomes has been greatly improved by the use of molecular cytogenetic technologies. Microarray-based Comparative Genomic Hybridization (aCGH) has been recently employed in postnatal diagnosis of cryptic chromosomal aberrations, but use ...
