PG - 543-546 LID - 10.3760/cma.j.issn.1003-9406.2019.06.003 [doi] AB - OBJECTIVE: To explore the genetic basis for a fetus featuring growth restriction and validate the effectiveness of a novel noninvasive prenatal testing (NIPT) technique for the detection of chromosomal microdeletions. METHODS: Next-generation sequencing(NGS) and fluorescence in situ hybridization(FISH) were used to analyze the DNA of the fetus. Conventional G-banding was used to analyze the karyotypes of the fetus and its parents. High-throughput sequencing was used to analyze free fetal DNA. RESULTS: NGS analysis has revealed a 4.88 Mb deletion at 15q11.2-q13.1 region in the fetus, which has a 99% overlap with the critical region of Prader-Willi syndrome (Type 2) and Angelman syndrome (Type 2) and encompassed critical genes including SNRPN and UBE3A. NIPT also revealed a 4.6 Mb deletion at 15q12, which was consistent with the results of fetal cord blood and amniotic DNA testing. FISH assay has confirmed the result of NGS. By karyotying, all subjects showed a normal karyotypes at a level of 320~400 bands. CONCLUSION: It is quite necessary to carry out genetic testing on fetuses showing growth restriction. NIPT for fetal chromosomal microdeletions/microduplication syndromes is highly accurate for the diagnosis of Prader-Willi/Angelman syndrome.
