In our previous studies, the rapid diagnosis of aneuploidy has been achieved using the segmental duplication molecular markers-based SD-QF-PCR technique. However, it is also insufficient due to the drawbacks including less detection loci and incompetence in single-tube detection.In this paper, we developed 13 new segmental duplications as molecular markers, as well as designed 13 pairs of primers...
During thalassemia screening, a previously unidentified α2 gene variation in α-globin gene cluster was isolated. This variation was distinct from other variations known to confer thalassemia as assessed by conventional thalassemia genotype analysis. Because the sample in the thalassemia screening was positive (MCV=83.6fL, MCH=26.1pg/cell, Hb=11.3g/dL), further analysis was required.MLPA (multiplex...
Inducible expression of serum amyloid A (SAA) is a hallmark of the acute-phase response, which is a conserved reaction of vertebrates to environmental challenges such as tissue injury, infection and surgery. Human SAA1 is encoded by one of the four SAA genes and is the best-characterized SAA protein. Initially known as a major precursor of amyloid A (AA), SAA1 has been found to play an important role...
Development of a qPCR test for the detection of trisomy 21 using segmental duplications.Segmental duplications in the TTC3 gene on chromosome 21 and the KDM2A gene on chromosome 11 were selected as molecular markers for the diagnostic qPCR assay. A set of consensus primers selected from the conserved regions of these segmental duplications were used to amplify internal diverse sequences that were...
