Abstract
Le chromosome 15q11q13 est parmi les régions les moins stables dans le génome en raison de son architecture génomique très complexe. Les éléments de répétition de copie faible sur 15q13.3 facilitent les variations du nombre de copie récurrentes (VNC), avec des délétions établies comme pathogènes et CHRNA7 est impliqué comme gène candidat. Cependant, la pathogénicité des doublons de CHRNA7 n'est pas claire, car ils sont trouvés chez les probands touchés ainsi que chez les parents déclarés en bonne santé et les individus témoins non affectés. Nous avons évalué 18 enfants présentant des micro doublements impliquant CHRNA7, identifiés par une analyse avec puces à ADN clinique (CMA pour chromosome
microarray analysis). Le phénotypage complet a révélé une prévalence élevée de retard de développement / déficience intellectuelle, trouble du spectre de l'autisme et trouble déficitaire de l'attention / hyperactivité. Comme les duplications de CHRNA7 sont les VNC les plus courantes identifiées par les CMA cliniques, cette étude fournit des conseils prévisionnels pour les personnes concernées par les soins des personnes touchées.
Chromosome 15q11q13 is among the least stable regions in the genome due to its highly complex genomic architecture. Low copy repeat elements at 15q13.3 facilitate recurrent copy number variants (CNVs), with deletions established as pathogenic and CHRNA7 implicated as a candidate gene. However, the pathogenicity of duplications of CHRNA7 is unclear, as they are found in affected probands as well as in reportedly healthy parents and unaffected control individuals. We evaluated 18 children with microduplications involving CHRNA7, identified by clinical chromosome microarray analysis (CMA). Comprehensive phenotyping revealed high prevalence of developmental delay/intellectual disability, autism spectrum disorder, and attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder. As CHRNA7 duplications are the most common CNVs identified by clinical CMA, this study provides anticipatory guidance for those involved with care of affected individuals.
