The phenotype in placental trisomy 7.

Published: August 1991

Trisomy 7, in mosaic state, was identified at chorionic villus sampling. The pregnancy was closely followed, and proceeded uneventfully. Mosaic trisomy 7 was confirmed in the term placenta, the organ having no structural abnormalities; the karyotype of the phenotypically normal baby was 46,XY. Trisomy 7, mosaic or nonmosaic, detected at chorionic villus sampling in an ultrasonographically normal pregnancy, appears typically to be associated with a normal fetal karyotype, and placental growth, structure, and function are not discernibly compromised.

Objective: Prenatal detection of Trisomy 16 mosaicism (MosT16) in a Chorionic Villus Sample (CVS) results may cause significant anxiety for expectant parents due to the risk of fetal malformation and fetal growth restriction (FGR). The aim of this study was to investigate the experiences and decision-making of women receiving a MosT16 results during pregnancy.

Methods: In-depth, semi-structured interviews with eight Danish women who received a MosT16 CVS results.

Down syndrome (DS), a genetic condition caused by trisomy 21 (T21), manifests various neurological symptoms, including intellectual disability, early neurodegeneration, and early-onset dementia. N-glycosylation is a protein modification that plays a critical role in numerous neurobiological processes and whose dysregulation is associated with a range of neurological disorders. However, whether N-glycosylation of neural glycoproteins is affected in DS has not been studied.

Background: Chromosomal mosaicism, a phenomenon observed in a minority of embryos, showcases its prevalence and inherent unpredictability, leading to variations in embryo mosaic rates across different centers. This research endeavors to assess the prevalence of mosaicism and its characteristics within the scope of our preimplantation genetic testing-A (PGT-A) services in Indonesia. Specifically focusing on our center's experience since 2020, this study aims to elucidate mosaic rates among embryos in our care.

People with mosaicism for trisomy 21 have been shown to exhibit many of the same phenotypic traits present in people with non-mosaic Down syndrome, but with varying symptom severity. However, the behavioral phenotype of people with mosaic Down syndrome (mDS) has not been well characterized. This study aimed to examine the prevalence of self-report and caregiver-report symptoms of depression and anxiety among a sample of 62 participants with mDS aged 12-46 and assess their association with the percentage of trisomy 21 in blood and/or buccal mucosa cells.

Chromosomal abnormalities of the embryo are the most common cause of first-trimester pregnancy loss. In this single-center study, we assessed the frequency and the spectrum of chromosomal abnormalities in miscarriages for each year of maternal age from 23 to 44. Cytogenetic data were obtained by conventional karyotyping of 7118 miscarriages in women with naturally conceived pregnancies.
