  • 1. Introduction to Genetics and Overview of the Conference Paul Grossfeld, M.D. Associate Adjunct Professor UCSD School of Medicine July 7, 2010

2. Highresolutionkaryotype 3. 4. Highresolutionkaryotype

  • Advantages
    • Whole genome scan
    • Relative low cost
  • Disadvantages
    • Labor intensive
    • Detection above 5 Mb

5. FISH Methodology

  • Www.nhgri.nih.gov./DIR/VIP(Artist Darryl Leja)

6. 7. FISH Analysis

  • Advantages
    • Highly specific (100 kb)
    • Microdeletions/Microduplications
  • Disadvantages
    • Highly specific
    • 500-600 probes needed to match the power of karyotyping

8. Microdeletion Detection 9. Microdeletion Detection 10. FISH Analysis 11. To improve detection

  • G-banding alone is insufficient to identify clinically significant deletions/duplications
  • Additional molecular cytogenetic technologies are needed that offer a whole genome approach to submicroscopic imbalances

12. Array-basedC omparativeG enomicH ybridization

  • Molecularcytogenetic method to detect copy number imbalances
  • Capable ofgenome widescanning
  • Less labor intensive
  • Objectivemethod compared to routine cytogenetic G-banding and FISH analysis

13. 14. Methods

  • Isolate Genomic DNA from samples
  • DNA digestion
  • Label patient and control samples
  • Hybridize to microarray
  • Post hybridization washing
  • Assay scanning and data analysis

15. Array Design

  • Resolution depends on clone size and spacing
  • Only detect unbalanced rearrangements
  • Creates a molecular karyotype

16. Indications - Postnatal

  • Multiple congenital anomalies
  • Developmental delay/ mental retardation of unknown origin
  • Autism
  • Any individual suspected of a chromosomal imbalance, even with normal karyotype
  • High resolution mapping to identify specific genes

17. Assay Requirements

  • Each laboratory must define criteria for an abnormal result
  • Confirmatory testing by G-banding or FISH analysis
  • Parental testing often needed to interpret significance of results

18. 19. Array Formats High Resolution

  • 1-3 Mb spacing across the genome
  • 50 75 kb resolution
  • Oligonucleotides used to cover the genome
  • Approximately 50,000 clones
  • Numerous polymorphisms identified

20. High Density Oligo CGH 21. Characterization of known cytogenetic rearrangements to determine size and gene content 22. Approximately 10% imbalances detected in individuals with normal karytoype 23. 24. 25. 26. 27. Definition of 11q Terminal Deletion Disorder

  • Terminal Deletion in 11q
  • Either sporadic (normal parents, 90-95%) or inherited (from a parent with a balanced translocation, 5-10%)
  • Can be an Inteial Deletion (very rare)
  • NOT an noisrevnI
  • NOT aBalanced Translocation/BalancedTranslocation
  • NOT a Duplicaplication

28. Balanced Translocation 29. Mechanisms of 11q- deletions

  • Variation in deletion size
  • All breakpoints cluster around CCG repeats
  • The largest deletions are caused by CCG repeat expansion/Fra11B fragile site
  • Smaller deletions:Not associated with a fragile site
  • All of the smallest deletions are derived from the paternal chromosome

30. Overview of the Conference

  • Talks
  • Assessments

31. Dr. Sarah Mattson

  • Review of what we have learned about your 11q children
  • Rationale and logistics of the assessments
  • What we hope to learn and how this can help your child

32. Traditional Osteopathic Medicine Kathryn Gill, M.D. 33. The effects of Neurogranin on learning and memory in 11q-Andras Bratincsak, MD, PhD July 8 th , 2010 34. The ETS-1 gene and heart defects in 11q-:Clinical implicationsPaul Grossfeld, M.D. Associate Adjunct Professor UCSD/Rady Childrens Hospital of San Diego July 8, 2010 35. Dr. Teresa Mattina

  • The natural history of Jacobsen syndrome:A comprehensive analysis of the physical findings in JS

36. 7 thAnnual International 11q Conference San Diego, CAJuly, 2010 Management of Behavior Problems in Children with Developmental Delay Martin T. Stein MD Division of Child Development and Community Health Department of PediatricsUniversity of California San Diego Rady Childrens Hospital 37. Autism: Separating facts from myths and what you need to know about your child Natacha Akshoomoff, Ph.D. Department of Psychiatry, University of California, San Diego Child & Adolescent Services Research Center and Developmental Services Rady Children's Hospital, San Diego Conflict of Interest: None 38. Jessica Fekete (11q mom)

  • Understanding Behavior issues

39. Endocrine Aspects of 11q Is there a role for GH?noissue Thomas G. Kelly, MD, FAAP Pediatric EndocrinologyUC San Diego / Rady Childrens Hospital San Diego Small 40. Dr. Neel Tipnis

  • Chronic constipation and other gastrointestinal problems (A fun and informative discussion about bowel movements!)

41. JACOBSENS and the EYE 42. 7 thAnnual 11q Conference MusicWorx Inc. Music Therapy 43. Bleeding in Paris-Trousseau syndrome 11q23 Family Conference July, 2010 44. Mr. Chuck Hehmeyer, Esq

  • Navigating the legal system to get what your 11q child needs

45. Clinical Assessments

  • 1).Dr. Mattina/Dr. Gillgopian (General, as well as blood draw for high resolution deletion mapping for those patients that have not yet had this done).
  • 2). Drs. Sarah Mattson/Natacha Akshoomoff (Cognitive/behavioral):Questionnaires and onsite testing at SDSU
  • 3). Dr. Zsuzsanna Bata-Csrg:Dermatologist (on site assessments with Dr. Mattina).
  • 4). Dr. Neil Tipnis (questionnaire???)

46. PROGRESS

  • FOURTEEN papers published since we started in 1997!!!
  • But MANY challenges still exist.
  • You, as parents, have a critical role and responsibility to help educate others about JS.It can literally save your childs life!!!
