A duplication dup(4)(q28q35.2) de novo in a newborn.
We report here a case of a newborn with hypotrophy and somatic stigmatization: microcephaly, facial dysmorphism, heart defect and immunodeficiency syndrome. The proband's karyotype was 46,XY,dup(4)(q28q35.2) de novo with chromosomal breaks in 4% of metaphases. We demonstrate the usefulness of a combination of physical examination, classical cytogenetics, FISH and PCR techniques in order to esta...
متن کاملProspective Study of a Cohort of Russian Nijmegen Breakage Syndrome Patients Demonstrating Predictive Value of Low Kappa-Deleting Recombination Excision Circle (KREC) Numbers and Beneficial Effect of Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation (HSCT)
BACKGROUND Nijmegen breakage syndrome (NBS) is a combined primary immunodeficiency with DNA repair defect, microcephaly, and other phenotypical features. It predominantly occurs in Slavic populations that have a high frequency of carriers with the causative NBN gene c.657_661del5 mutation. Due to the rarity of the disease in the rest of the world, studies of NBS patients are few. Here, we repor...
متن کاملSyndrome of the month Nijmegen breakage syndrome
Nijmegen breakage syndrome (NBS), a rare autosomal recessive condition also known as ataxia telangiectasia (AT) variants VI and V2, is characterised by microcephaly, typical facies, short stature, immunodeficiency, and chromosomal instability. We report the clinical, immunological, chromosomal, and cell biological findings in 42 patients who are included in the NBS Registry in Nijmegen. The imm...
متن کاملCharacterization of cell cycle checkpoint responses after ionizing radiation in Nijmegen breakage syndrome cells.
Nijmegen breakage syndrome (NBS), which in the past also has been classified as a variant of ataxia telangiectasia (AT), is characterized by cancer proneness and extreme sensitivity to ionizing radiation. We investigated the DNA damage responses of four independent primary NBS fibroblast cell lines. Following a low dose of ionizing radiation, p53 is mostly induced with slower kinetics and shows...
