عقب‌ماندگی ذهنی مرتبط با ناهنجاری کروموزومی در یک خانواده ایرانی: گزارش سه مورد

Background: Mental retardation is defined as impaired mental capacity and ability to comply with environmental and social conditions. Chromosomal abnormalities are the most important causes of mental retardation. Carriers of balanced chromosomal translocation are phenotypically normal, although they may be at risk of infertility, recurrent miscarriage or giving birth to mentally retarded childr...

Identification of novel cryptic translocations involving IGH in B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphomas.

Chromosomal rearrangements involving the immunoglobulin heavy chain gene (IGH) at 14q32 are observed in approximately 50% of patients with B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL). The 5' end of the IGH gene is located within 8 kb of the telomeric repeats of 14q. Translocations involving the IGH locus and the telomeric band of a partner chromosome are difficult to identify, because most terminal ban...

Balanced Reciprocal Translocation t(X;1) in a Girl with Tall Stature and Primary Amenorrhea

AbstractChromosomal translocations constitute one of the most important, yet uncommon, causes of primary amenorrhea and gonadal dysgenesis. Although X-autosome translocations are frequently associated with streak gonads and clinical features of the Turner syndrome, the majority of X-autosome carriers may present with a variable phenotype, developmental delay, and recognizable X-linked syndrome ...

Evidence for structural heterogeneity from molecular cytogenetic analysis of dicentric Robertsonian translocations.

Most Robertsonian translocations are dicentric, suggesting that the location of chromosomal breaks leading to their formation occur in the acrocentric short arm. Previous cytogenetic and molecular cytogenetic studies have shown that few Robertsonian translocations retain ribosomal genes or beta-satellite DNA. Breakpoints in satellite III DNA, specifically between two chromosome 14-specific subf...
