Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the postnatal clinical manifestation of an antenatally detected unbalanced rearrangement involving chromosome 13 in an ethnic South Indian couple. METHODS We used conventional cytogenetics on fetal cells obtained from prenatal specimens and on peripheral blood lymphocytes from consanguineous family members to ascertain the chromosomal abnormalities. RESULTS We report the reproductive outcomes of a maternally inherited chromosome translocation involving chromosome 9 and 13 and the informed decisions of the couple, after genetic counseling in India, regarding their 4 pregnancies. CONCLUSION This case report highlights the current practice in India of offering prenatal diagnosis and preimplantation genetic diagnosis to individuals who are carriers of balanced translocations, to reduce the risk of conceiving chromosomally abnormal offspring.

Abstract
The development of an embryo as male or female depends on differentiation of the gonads as either testes or ovaries. A number of genes are known to be important for gonadal differentiation, but our understanding of the regulatory networks underpinning sex determination remains fragmentary. To advance our understanding of sexual development beyond the transcriptome level, we performed the first global survey of the mouse gonad proteome at the time of sex determination by using two-dimensional nanoflow LC-MS/MS. The resulting data set contains a total of 1037 gene products (154 non-redundant and 883 redundant proteins) identified from 620 peptides. Functional classification and biological network construction suggested that the identified proteins primarily serve in RNA post-transcriptional modification and trafficking, protein synthesis and folding, and post-translational modification. The data set contains potential novel regulators of gonad development and sex determination not revealed previously by transcriptomics and proteomics studies and more than 60 proteins with potential links to human disorders of sexual development.

Abstract
Trisomy 22 syndrome manifestations include cranial and facial anomalies. Ambiguous genitalia have been described in some fetus, but histological examination of the gonads has been rarely provided. We report here the first case of a male pseudohermaphrodite fetus with non-mosaic full trisomy 22 in amniocytes and presenting with ambiguous external genitalia, testes, and a uterus. In this case, we have further analyzed cytogenetically gonadal and uterine tissues. FISH analyses on paraffin-embedded gonads and uterus indicated the presence of two cell lines: XY and monosomy X, with 22%-50% of uterine cells having monosomy X, while 85%-100% of right and 77%-96% of left testicular cells were XY. The distribution of sex chromosomes observed in these tissues could explain the sexual differentiation observed in this fetus. On the other hand, this phenotype could also have resulted from cryptic anomalies in one or several genes implicated in sexual differentiation. Further evidence is thus needed before identifying the true cause of pseudohermaphroditism in our patient.

Abstract
Several years ago, we presented a patient with true hermaphroditism and partial duplication of chromosome 22 and no evidence of SRY (Aleck et al. [1999: Am J Med Genet 85:2-4]). Recently a 46,XX male with velocardiofacial syndrome and a deletion of 22q11.2 and no evidence of Y chromosomal loci in blood DNA was reported (Phelan et al. [2003: Am J Med Genet 116A:77-79]). We have restudied this patient as he enters puberty. Because chromosomal deletions sometimes involve micro rearrangements of nearby material, we have extensively studied this individual's chromosome 22 looking for evidence of any gene duplication. We studied a number of variable number tandem repeat (VNTR) loci along chromosome 22 in the patient and both parents. Normal Mendelian inheritance of the VNTRs was found. We then used quantitative multiplex PCR of short fluorescent fragments (QMPSF) to delineate the 22q11.2 deletion in this patient (Jacquet et al. [2002: Hum Molec Genet 11:2243-2249]) and found a pattern of deletion typical of the velocardiofacial DiGeorge syndrome. Finally, the patient's DNA has been analyzed using a full coverage human chromosome 22 genomic microarray (array comparative genomic hybridization [CGH]) for evidence of rearrangements outside the classical velocardiofacial DiGeorge associated deletion (Buckley et al. [2002: Hum Molec Genet 11:3221-3229]). The array-CGH profile of this patient confirms the deletion encompassing the typically deleted region associated with the velocardiofacial DiGeorge syndrome and provides no support for additional gene copy number aberrations on 22q. Thus, there is no evidence of any chromosome 22 trisomic material. In this case, the rare events of sex reversal and 22q11.2 deletion may have occurred together by chance.

Abstract
It has been postulated that the deletion of band 13q22 may be associated with digital malformations, especially thumb and big toe anomalies. We report a family where the mother is carrying a balanced translocation between chromosomes 5p15 and 13q22. The offspring have a specific and well-defined phenotype depending on which is the unbalanced chromosome in the karyotype. When a partial trisomy of 13q22-->qter is present, the fetuses have polydactyly in the four limbs, and when the fetus is carrying a partial monosomy of this portion, an oligodactyly in all members can be observed.

Abstract
We present the case of a patient with true hermaphroditism and partial duplication of chromosome 22. Cytogenetic evaluation showed no evidence of a Y chromosome in blood, skin, or gonadal tissue. Additional investigations using molecular probes showed no evidence of SRY. We conclude that there are genes on chromosome 22 that are involved in sex determination.

Abstract
A mild clinical phenotype is described in a patient with duplication of 13q32-->qter and a small deletion of 18p11.32-->pter. The 8 year old white male presented with psychomotor retardation, tethered cord, soft, fleshy ears, and normal facial features except for thin lips. The karyotype was found to be 46, XY, der(18)t(13;18) (q32;p11.32) pat confirmed by fluorescence in situ hybridisation (FISH). A review of earlier studies showed that features of trisomy 13 are found in cases of duplication of bands 13q14 to qter. None of the cardinal features of trisomy 13 was seen in this patient. The absence of polydactyly, hernias, urogenital abnormalities, and haemangiomas contrast this condition with both trisomy 13 and duplication of 13q14-22-->qter. Possible explanations for lack of Patau syndrome in this patient could include restriction of the critical region for Patau syndrome to duplication 13q14-->13q32 with variable expression, gene interactions, or interchromosomal effects.

Abstract
We present a boy with a rare unbalanced translocation 46,XY,-15,+der(22),t(15;22)(q13;q11) pat. Previous reports of similar chromosome findings mention only the Prader-Willi phenotype. At birth, his manifestations included severe hypotonia and lethargy, (typical of deletion of 15pter----q13); hypertelorism, down-slanting small palpebral fissures, preauricular tags, long philtrum (typical of duplication of 22pter----q11); severe laryngotracheomalacia, and proximal implantation of the thumb. In a review of the literature on chromosome abnormalities involving duplication of 22q11 the associated clinical phenotype consists of mild mental retardation, microcephaly, hypotonia, hypertelorism, down-slanting palpebral fissures, a long philtrum, cleft or highly arched palate, and ear abnormalities. Preauricular pits or tags are common. Cardiovascular defects, renal and genital problems and dislocated hips are frequently present. Anal atresia and colobomata are mainly seen in cat-eye syndrome, the phenotype associated with idic 22q11. Our findings indicate that patients with unbalanced t(15;22) can have manifestations of the dup 22q11, in addition to the previously reported Prader-Willi phenotype, even if the duplicated segment is small.

Abstract
Analysis of clinical and cytogenetic findings taken from 62 published cases of partial trisomies of chromosome 13 showed that 15 had partial trisomy for the proximal long arm and 47 had trisomy for the distal long arm. Persistence of fetal haemoglobin (Hb F), increased projections of polymorphonuclear leucocytes (PMN), depressed nasal bridge, cleft lip/palate, and clinodactyly were more frequent in patients with proximal trisomy 13. In the distal trisomy group, the common features included haemangioma, bushy eyebrows, long curled eyelashes, prominent nasal bridge, long philtrum, thin upper lip, highly arched palate, and hexadactyly. In addition, several other features were common to both the groups, often showing inconsistency even when the same segment was in trisomy. The influence of the second aneusomy as the most likely cause for such inconsistent and overlapping phenotypes is discussed in view of the fact that 42 of 62 cases were derived from a balanced translocation carrier parent.

Abstract
A 12 month-old male patient with a karyotype 46,XY,-15,+der(15),t(13;15)(q22;q26)pat is presented. His stillborn sib showed malformations compatible with the 13q deletion syndrome, probably due to a 46,XY,der(13) karyotype. Phenotypic analysis of 41 cases from the literature with partial distal 13q (D13q) trisomies indicate that the segment 13q22----qter in trisomy with or without another concomitant aneusomy is sufficient to produce the majority of the trisomy 13 syndrome features, some of which (cleft palate, increased HbF and projections in PMN) are present in different non-overlapping partial 13q trisomies. About 82% of the D13q trisomies are inherited, more frequently from the mother.

Abstract
The most relevant phenotypic features seen in both proximal and distal partial trisomy 13 have been identified from a review of 35 cases. Clinical delineation of either proximal or distal partial trisomy 13 has been demonstrated through the use of conspicuous phenotypic differences. The findings of persistent foetal Hb and increased number of nuclear projections on neutrophils are consistent findings associated with partial trisomy of a proximal segment of chromosome 13 and are diagnostic for trisomy of a partial segment of chromosome 13 that contains bands 13q12 and 13q14. The physical features of polydactyly and hemangioma have been mapped to bands 13q31 and 13q32----13qter and provide a differential diagnosis for a distal trisomic segment of chromosome 13 that may include bands 13q22----13qter. A segment of chromosome 13 has been identified that does not produce any detectable phenotypes in the triplicated state. The possible role of a triplicated 13q segment in altering expression of structural and regulatory systems elsewhere in the genome has been examined. Distinct clinical syndromes involving either a partial proximal or partial distal trisomic segment of chromosome 13 may be phenotypically defined.

Abstract
A severely growth-retarded female newborn is described, who dies a few hours after birth. About half of the clones and metaphases from an amniotic fluid cell culture (set up at 35th week of gestation) and only 1/27 of the metaphases from a blood lymphocyte culture contained an additional No. 22 chromosome. Abnormal findings in the patient included a complex congenital heart defect, membranous anal atresia without fistula, distal limb hypoplasia, partial cutaneous syndactyly between second and third toes, and a left preauricular pit. On the basis of this case and other reports from the literature arguments for and against the existence of full human trisomy 22 are discussed. The conclusion seems likely, that full trisomy 22 usually presents a lethal condition in man, though at present an occasional survival cannot be excluded.

Abstract
Reciprocal translocations produce imbalances by three types of disjunction which are, in decreasing frequency, adjacent 1, 3:1, and adjacent 2. Adjacent 1 disjunction produces duplication deficiencies of inverse topography to those of adjacent 2. The imbalanced chromosome segments in one of these types are balanced in the other. The disjunction 3:1 produces pure trisomies and monosomies. The following situations predispose to adjacent 2 disjunction: translocations between the long arms of two acrocentric chromosomes or between one of these and that of a No 9 chromosome; centric segments, either short or carrying a heterochromatic zone (9qh); a balanced translocation in the mother. The factors predisposing to the disjunction adjacent 2 operate by selection, or directly on the meiotic configuration. Some of them (shortness of the interstitial segment, shortness of the short arms of translocation chromosomes) act in both these ways. Their influence is probably responsible for the repetitive and exclusive character of this disjunction. The conditions for the occurrence of the 3:1 disjunctions seem less strict than those for adjacent 2, although they should be of the same nature (involvement of acrocentrics or a chromosome 9 in the translocation, maternal origin).

Abstract
A female is described who has a karyotype with an additional distal half of 13q in a recombinant rec(13)dup q chromosome. Since her parents have normal karyotypes, the origin of her karyotype is assumed to be a premeiotic pericentric inversion de novo with crossing-over within the inversion loop at meiosis. By means of various banding techniques, the breaks preceding the rearrangement could be located exactly. The joint between the duplicated segment and the satellites of the receptor chromosome is of special note. The phenotype of the patient stated at the age of 9 months and at the age of 7 1/2 years was found to be related to the segments involved in the partial trisomy. The clinical features were largely in accordance with previous case reports having an identical extent of the triplicated 13q segment.

Abstract
A family is reported in which the propositus has an extra G-like chromosome with an unusual G-banding pattern. Cytogenetic family studies showed that the mother is a carrier of a balanced reciprocal translocation t(13;22), which does not affect the size and morphology of the chromosomes involved. The propositus has a 47,XY,+der(22),t(13;22)(q22;q11) karyotype and is therefore partially trisomic for the distal third of the long arm of chromosome 13 and for a very small part of chromosome 22. The clinical findings are presented and compared with those of other reported cases of partial trisomies 13 and 22.
