Somatic copy number alterations are associated with EGFR amplification and shortened survival in patients with primary glioblastoma.

2019

Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common malignant primary tumor of the central nervous system. With no effective therapy, the prognosis for patients is terrible poor. It is highly heterogeneous and EGFR amplification is its most frequent molecular alteration. In this light, we aimed to examine the genetic heterogeneity of GBM and to correlate it with the clinical characteristics of the patients. For that purpose, we analyzed the status of EGFR and the somatic copy number alterations (CNAs) of a set of tumor suppressor genes and oncogenes. Thus, we found GBMs with high level of EGFR amplification, low level and with no EGFR amplification. Highly amplified tumors showed histological features of…

Are the new genetic tools for diagnosis of Wilson disease helpful in clinical practice?

2020

Summary The diagnosis of Wilson disease is not always easy. For many patients, a combination of tests reflecting disturbed copper metabolism may be needed. Testing for ATP7B variants has become part of the routine diagnostic approach. The methods of genetic testing include analysis of the 21 coding exons and intronic flanking sequences, in which exons with recurrent variants would be prioritised depending on the mutation frequency in the local population. If sequencing the entire ATP7B gene cannot identify 2 variants and the suspicion for Wilson disease is high, after reviewing the clinical data, WES (whole-exome sequencing) or WGS (whole-genome sequencing) could be applied. A workflow base…

Analisi MLPA del gene CREB-binding protein (CREBBP) in un paziente con la sindrome di Rubinstein Taybi

2012

La sindrome di Rubinstein-Taybi è una rara malattia congenita autosomica dominante caratterizzata da ritardo della crescita postnatale, ritardo dello sviluppo psicomotorio, anomalie scheletriche, peculiare morfologia facciale ed un aumento del rischio oncogeno. La prevalenza alla nascita è 1 su 125.000 nati vivi. La malattia può essere associata a mutazioni nel gene che codifica per la proteina CREB-binding localizzato nella regione cromosomica 16p13.3. Recenti studi hanno dimostrato che pazienti con quoziente intellettivo basso e tratti autistici possono avere grandi delezioni. Sulla base di queste osservazioni, abbiamo usato la Multiplex Ligation-dependent Probe Amplification (MLPA) per r…
