Applications of multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA) method in diagnosis of cancer and genetic disorders
Introduction: Lots of human diseases and syndromes result from partial or complete gene deletions and duplications or changes of certain specific chromosomal sequences. Many various methods are used to study the chromosomal aberrations including Comparative Genomic Hybridization (CGH), Fluorescent in Situ Hybridization (FISH), Southern blots, Multiplex Amplifiable Probe Hybridisation (MAP...
متن کاملMethylation-Specific Multiplex Ligation-Dependent Probe Amplification (MS-MLPA).
This chapter describes a method for the rapid assessment of promoter hypermethylation levels or methylation of imprinted regions in human genomic DNA extracted from various sources using methylation-specific multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MS-MLPA). Multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA) is a powerful and easy-to-perform PCR-based technique that can identify g...
متن کاملcan we rely on the multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification method (mlpa) for prenatal diagnosis?
background: the major aneuploidies that are diagnosed prenatally involve the autosomal chromosomes 13, 18, and 21, as well as sex chromosomes, x and y. because multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (mlpa) is rapid and non-invasive, it has replaced traditional culture methods for the screening and diagnosis of common aneuploidies in some countries. objective: to evaluate the sensitiv...

متن کاملGenetic testing in Indian patients with Prader-Willi syndrome using methylation specific multiplex ligation dependent probe amplification (MS-MLPA)
Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) is caused by loss of function of genes on chromosome 15; most cases occur when a segment of the paternal chromosome 15 is absent/inactivated. Recently few cases have been identified with truncating mutations in MAGEL2 gene (Chromosome 15). We present clinical features and molecular genetic analysis on 6 patients with features of PWS using MS-MLPA. Four boys and 2 gir...
