性腺发育不全患者荧光原位杂交和BAC-FISH的诊断

目的 探讨荧光原位杂交(fluorescence in situ hybridization,FISH)和BAC-FISH(bacterial artificial Chromosonle-FISH)在性腺发育不全患者临床医学遗传学诊断中的应用.方法 对5例临床检查诊断为性腺发育不全患者进行染色体荧光Q显带、G显带核型分析、FISH和BAC-FISH等分子-细胞遗传学检查诊断.结果 5例性腺发育不全患者中2例为46,XY核型的单纯性性腺发育不全,另外3例分别为45,X/47,XXX;45,X/46,XY或45,X/46,X,der(Y)嵌合体核型的混合性性腺发育不全.结论 性染色体的异常是导致患者性腺发育不全的原因,结合应用FISH和BAC-FISH等分子-细胞检测技术可为性腺发育不全患者的临床诊断和治疗提供准确的医学遗传学依据.

Molecular and cytogenetic study on 5 cases with gonadal dysgenesis: clinical applications of fluorescence in situ hybridization(FISH) and BAC-FISH

OBJECTIVE: To explore the applications of fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) in the diagnosis for the patients with gonadal dysgenesis. METHODS: After routine gynecologic examination, ultrasonography and endocrine examination, 5 cases of gonadal dysgenesis and hypogonadism were analyzed by using chromosomal diagnoses including G-banding, Q-banding, multiplex FISH and BAC-FISH analyses. RESULTS: Among the 5 cases of gonad agenesis patients, 2 were pure gonadal dysgenesis with 46, XY karyotype, 3 were mixed gonadal dysgenesis with mos 45, X/47, XXX; 45, X/46, XY or 46, X, der(Y) karyotype. CONCLUSION: Sex chromosomal abnormalities resulted in gonadal dysgenesis symptoms. Applications of FISH and BAC-FISH analyses can correctly diagnose the sex chromosomal abnormalities for patients with gonad agenesis and provide accurate medical genetic data for clinical diagnosis and therapy.
