A mother says her “gut instinct” told her something was wrong with her baby boy immediately after she gave birth — and doctors soon delivered a devastating diagnosis. Hannah Doyle’s son, Zander, was ...

When genes are deleted on a particular section of chromosome 11, the result is an aggressive form of the childhood cancer neuroblastoma. A new study suggests that detecting this genetic deletion ...

Ideograms and partial karyotypes are shown. For the deletions, the arrows indicate a) the deletion of chromosome 15q11-13 associated with Prader-Willi and Angelman syndromes, and b) the deletion of ...

Donna McDonald-McGinn, M.S., CGC, associate director of Clinical Genetics and program director of the "22q and You" Center at The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, received the Angelo DiGeorge ...

In a recent study posted to the medRxiv* preprint server, a group of researchers identified large deletions in individuals with unexplained hyperinsulinism (HI), thereby elucidating the potential ...

Translocations, in genetics, happen when chromosomes break and the pieces attach to other chromosomes. This mixing of genetic material has important results. The resultant chromosomes are lacking in ...

Researchers at the Francis Crick Institute studying male mice engineered with different Y chromosome deletions have uncovered which genes on the mouse Y chromosome regulate the development of sperm ...

Large and rare duplications and deletions in a chromosome region known as 22q11.2 , which involves genes that regulate cardiac development, are linked to nonsyndromic bicuspid aortic valve disease.

Her-2/neu Overexpression and Amplification in Uterine Papillary Serous Carcinoma Adult patients with pathologically proven LGOT with progressive disease on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) were ...

Young people living with a genetic alteration that increases the risk of psychiatric disorders have markedly different brain activity during sleep, a new study shows. The brain activity patterns ...
