Abstract
PURPOSE Providing feasible preimplantation genetic testing strategies for monogenic disorders (PGT-M) for prevention and control of genetic cancers. METHODS Inclusion of families with a specific pathogenic mutation or a clear family history of genetic cancers. Identification of the distribution of hereditary cancer-related mutations in families through genetic testing. After a series of assisted reproductive measures such as down-regulation, stimulation, egg retrieval, and in vitro fertilization, a biopsy of trophectoderm cells from a blastocyst was performed for single-cell level whole-genome amplification (WGA). Then, the detection of chromosomal aneuploidies was performed by karyomapping. Construction of a haplotype-based linkage analysis to determine whether the embryo carries the mutation. Meanwhile, we performed CNV testing. Finally, embryos can be selected for transfer, and the results will be verified in 18-22 weeks after pregnancy. RESULTS Six couples with a total of 7 cycles were included in our study. Except for cycle 1 of case 5 which did not result in a transferable embryo, the remaining 6 cycles produced transferable embryos and had a successful pregnancy. Four couples have had amniotic fluid tests to confirm that the fetus does not carry the mutation, while 1 couple was not tested due to insufficient pregnancy weeks. And the remaining couples had to induce labor due to fetal megacystis during pregnancy. CONCLUSION Our strategy has been proven to be feasible. It can effectively prevent transmission of hereditary cancer-related mutations to offspring during the prenatal stage.

Establishment of linkage phase, using Oxford Nanopore Technologies, for preimplantation genetic testing of Coffin-Lowry syndrome with a de novo RPS6KA3 mutation. Front Genet 2023; 14:1169868. [PMID: 37779904 PMCID: PMC10538565 DOI: 10.3389/fgene.2023.1169868] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/20/2023] [Accepted: 08/30/2023] [Indexed: 10/03/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: This study aimed to perform preimplantation genetic testing (PGT) for a female Coffin-Lowry Syndrome (CLS) patient with a de novo mutation (DNM) in RPS6KA3. It was challenging to establish the haplotype in this family because of the lack of information from affected family members. Hence, we explored a new and reliable strategy for the detection of the DNM in PGT, using Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT) and the MARSALA platform. Methods: We performed whole-exome sequencing (WES) on the proband and confirmed the pathogenic mutation by Sanger sequencing. The proband then underwent PGT to prevent the transmission of the pathogenic mutation to her offspring. We diverged from the conventional methods and used long-read sequencing (LRS) on the ONT platform to directly detect the mutation and nearby SNPs, for construction of the haplotype in the preclinical phase of PGT. In the clinical phase of embryo diagnosis, the MARSALA method was used to detect both the SNP-based haplotype and chromosome copy number variations (CNVs), in each blastocyst. Finally, a normal embryo was selected by comparison to the haplotype of the proband and transferred into the uterus. Sanger sequencing and karyotyping were performed by amniocentesis, at 17 weeks of gestation, to confirm the accuracy of PGT. Results: Using WES, we found the novel, heterozygous, pathogenic c.1496delG (p.Gly499Valfs*25) mutation of RPS6KA3 in the proband. The SNP-based haplotype that was linked to the pathogenic mutation site was successfully established in the proband, without the need for other family members to be tested with ONT. Eight blastocysts were biopsied to perform PGT and were assessed with a haplotype linkage analysis (30 SNP sites selected), to give results that were consistent with direct mutation detection using Sanger sequencing. The results of PGT showed that three of the eight blastocysts were normal, without the DNM. Moreover, the patient had a successful pregnancy, after transfer of a normal blastocyst into the uterus, and delivered a healthy baby. Conclusion: The ONT platform, combined with the MARSALA method, can be used to perform PGT for DNM patients without the need for other samples as a reference.

Abstract
PURPOSE Spontaneous oocyte activation (SOA) is a recently classified phenomenon characterized by the presence of a single pronucleus immediately following oocyte retrieval, without the apparent involvement of sperm. SOA currently remains poorly understood in humans, with no clear genetic or pathological factor(s). Herein, we report two separate cases of recurrent spontaneous oocyte activation, investigating potential avenues to identify causative etiology. METHODS Two patients with several cycles with SOA have undergone further genetic and embryologic investigation to reveal underlying causes for SOA and provide a treatment if possible. RESULTS One case was a patient with recurrent pregnancy loss and the other was diagnosed as unexplained infertility. In the first case, 61 out of 69 oocytes retrieved exhibited SOA in five cycles while in the second case 44 out of 49 oocytes exhibited SOA in five cycles. Oocytes were injected with sperm; embryo development and presence of paternal contribution were investigated. No pregnancy is ensued following embryo transfer in both patients. Time-lapse imaging of embryogenesis from the second case did not reveal even momentary second pronucleus appearance. We also performed clinical whole exome sequencing for both patients but did not identify any disease-causing variant. CONCLUSION Patients with SOA suffer from infertility. Our results indicate that more investigation is required to understand the etiology of SOA in humans concentrating on the molecular mechanisms that underpin regulation of oocyte activation and calcium dynamics need to be investigated to fully understand, and perhaps in the future rectify, recurrent SOA.

Abstract
RESEARCH QUESTION Is there a simple and effective method for male patients with genetic disorders in families with no identified haplotype and with Robertsonian translocations to avoid the transfer of embryos carrying translocated chromosomes? DESIGN Single spermatozoa were separated to identify by next-generation sequencing (NGS) those that were genetically abnormal, to establish a sperm-based single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) haplotype. Blastocysts that developed to day 5 or 6 were then biopsied for whole genome amplification and screening for chromosomal aneuploidy. Normal embryos were selected by comparison with a single-sperm-based SNP haplotype and were transferred. The results were verified by second trimester amniocentesis. RESULTS Two blastocysts obtained from patients with neurofibroma type 1 (NF1) were found to be normal after NGS according to single-sperm-based SNP haplotype analysis (13 SNP sites). Three and one blastocysts, respectively, were obtained from the patients with Robertsonian translocation. Blastocysts B9 and B7 were found to be normal after NGS according to the single-sperm-based SNP haplotype analysis (12 and 13 SNP sites selected on chromosomes 14 and 22 for the first patient; 12 and 9 SNP sites selected on chromosomes 13 and 14 for the second patient). Successful pregnancies after blastocyst transfer occurred in all three patients. The identification of embryos was verified by mid-trimester amniocentesis. All three patient couples successfully delivered healthy babies. CONCLUSION This study preliminarily summarized the process of single-sperm-based SNP haplotyping, which could be applied as preimplantation genetic testing for male patients without identified disease-causing haplotypes and with Robertsonian translocations.

Abstract
Autosomal dominant hereditary polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is the most common inherited kidney disease that causes end-stage renal disease and kidney failure. Preimplantation genetic testing for monogenic (PGT-M) can effectively prevent the transmission of genetic diseases from parents to the offspring before pregnancy. However, PGT-M currently adopts the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) linkage analysis for embryo's pathogenic gene carrying status and linkage analysis requires proband of the family. Here we report a new PGT-M strategy using single sperm SNP linkage analysis for male patient with sporadic ADPKD caused by de novo PKD1 mutation. We recruited five couples with male patient with ADPKD caused by de novo PKD1 mutation, and 39 embryos from six PGT-M cycles were detected. The five couples had at least one embryo that does not carry the PKD1 mutation. Within these five couples, the accuracy of carrier status of embryos was confirmed by amniotic fluid gene detection of two couples and two couples successfully delivered healthy fetuses. Therefore, the new PGT-M strategy of using single sperm SNP linkage analysis was proved to be feasible and effective for male patient with ADPKD caused by de novo PKD1 mutation.

Abstract
Context Preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) is currently used for over 400 monogenic diseases. Some endocrine conditions that occur due to monogenic defects are either life-threatening or can cause severe morbidities; thus, PGD may be an option to avoid the occurrence of such diseases. Evidence acquisition An initial search in PubMed/Medline search was done to identify monogenic endocrine conditions using appropriate search terms. Eleven articles (1999-2018) reported 15 cases using PGD for monogenic endocrine diseases performed at major reproductive centers. Clinical and outcome data of these cases were reviewed with respect to the number of PGD cycles, successful pregnancy rates, live births and their genetic status. Evidence synthesis Fifteen couples underwent 32 PGD cycles (one to nine per couple), of which 17 resulted in a pregnancy. Seven couples underwent a single PGD cycle. Four couples had successful pregnancies each resulting in live births, one couple had an unsuccessful pregnancy, one needed medical termination of pregnancy and the outcome data were not reported in one. The remaining eight couples underwent multiple PGD cycles (two to nine per couple) and all had successful pregnancies in at least one cycle resulting in 16 live births. Of the total live births, 60% were genetically unaffected and 40% were carriers of the autosomal recessive gene mutation. Conclusions PGD may be a potential tool for preventing the inheritance of severe monogenic endocrine diseases in future generations. Currently, the use of PGD in endocrine disorders is rare but provides a promising option on a case-by-case basis, provided the optimal resources are available.

Abstract
Hearing loss may place a heavy burden on the patient and patient's family. Given the high incidence of hearing loss among newborns and the huge cost of treatment and care (including cochlear implantation), prenatal diagnosis is strongly recommended. Termination of the fetus may be considered as an extreme outcome to the discovery of a potential deaf fetus, and therefore preimplantation genetic diagnosis has become an important option for avoiding the birth of affected children without facing the risk of abortion following prenatal diagnosis. In one case, a couple had a 7-year-old daughter affected by non-syndromic sensorineural hearing loss. The affected fetus carried a causative compound heterozygous mutation c.919-2 A>G (IVS7-2 A>G) and c.1707+5 G>A (IVS15+5 G>A) of the solute carrier family 26 member 4 gene inherited from maternal and paternal sides, respectively. The present study applied multiple displacement amplification for whole genome amplification of biopsied trophectoderm cells and next-generation sequencing (NGS)-based single nucleotide polymorphism haplotyping on an Ion Torrent Personal Genome Machine. One unaffected embryo was transferred in a frozen-thawed embryo transfer cycle and the patient was impregnated. To conclude, to the best of our knowledge, this may be the first report of NGS-based preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) for non-syndromic hearing loss caused by a compound heterozygous mutation using an Ion Torrent Personal Genome Machine. NGS provides unprecedented high-throughput, highly parallel and base-pair resolution data for genetic analysis. The method meets the requirements of medium-sized diagnostics laboratories. With decreased costs compared with previous techniques (such as Sanger sequencing), this technique may have potential widespread clinical application in PGD of other types of monogenic disease.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the usefulness of preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) for the patient affected by congenital contractural arachnodactyly (CCA) and spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy (SBMA). METHODS Multiple displacement amplification (MDA) was performed for whole genome amplification (WGA) of biopsied trophectoderm (TE) cells. Direct mutation detection by sequencing and next-generation sequencing (NGS)-based single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) haplotyping were used for CCA diagnosis. Direct sequencing of the PCR products and sex determination by amplification of sex-determining region Y (SRY) gene were used for SBMA diagnosis. After PGD, the unaffected blastocyst (B4) was transferred in the following frozen embryo transfer (FET). RESULTS In this PGD cycle, sixteen MII oocytes were inseminated by ICSI with testicular spermatozoa. Four blastocysts (B4, B5, B10, B13) were utilized for TE cell biopsy on day 5 after ICSI. After PGD, B4 was unaffected by CCA and SBMA. B5 was affected by CCA and carried SBMA. B10 was unaffected by CCA and carried SBMA. B13 was affected by CCA and unaffected by SBMA. B4 was the only unaffected blastocyst and transferred into the uterus for the subsequent FET cycle. The accuracy of PGD was confirmed by amniocentesis at 21 weeks of gestation. A healthy boy weighing 2850 g was born by cesarean section at the 38th week of gestation. CONCLUSIONS PGD is a valid screening tool for patienst affected of CCA and SBMA to prevent transmission of these genetic diseases from parents to children.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To review the foundations, recent technical advances, and increasing number of applications for in-vitro fertilization with preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD). RECENT FINDINGS PGD is an important technique for reducing the burden of genetic disease. Studies have shown that the diagnostic accuracy and subsequent live-birth rate after PGD are impacted by the developmental stage at the time of biopsy, as well as the biopsy protocol used. Also essential for accurate diagnosis are refined mutation detection protocols which avoid the common problem of allele drop-out. As the technique has improved, there has been a concomitant increase in the popularity and breadth of application of PGD. A recently published 10-year dataset of worldwide PGD reveals the increasing frequency of its use and the growing number of indications for which PGD is offered. SUMMARY Technical advances from biopsy to detection of mutations have led to improved diagnostic accuracy and an increased frequency and breadth of use for PGD.

Abstract
Preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) is gradually widely used in prevention of gene diseases and chromosomal abnormalities. Much improvement has been achieved in biopsy technique and molecular diagnosis. Blastocyst biopsy can increase diagnostic accuracy and reduce allele dropout. It is cost-effective and currently plays an important role. Whole genome amplification permits subsequent individual detection of multiple gene loci and screening all 23 pairs of chromosomes. For PGD of chromosomal translocation, fluorescence in-situ hybridization (FISH) is traditionally used, but with technical difficulty. Array comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) can detect translocation and 23 pairs of chromosomes that may replace FISH. Single nucleotide polymorphisms array with haplotyping can further distinguish between normal chromosomes and balanced translocation. PGD may shorten time to conceive and reduce miscarriage for patients with chromosomal translocation. PGD has a potential value for mitochondrial diseases. Preimplantation genetic haplotyping has been applied for unknown mutation sites of single gene disease. Preimplantation genetic screening (PGS) using limited FISH probes in the cleavage-stage embryo did not increase live birth rates for patients with advanced maternal age, unexplained recurrent abortions, and repeated implantation failure. Polar body and blastocyst biopsy may circumvent the problem of mosaicism. PGS using blastocyst biopsy and array CGH is encouraging and merit further studies. Cryopreservation of biopsied blastocysts instead of fresh transfer permits sufficient time for transportation and genetic analysis. Cryopreservation of embryos may avoid ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome and possible suboptimal endometrium.
