CCMG guidelines: prenatal and postnatal diagnostic testing for uniparental disomy

Abstract: The aim of this statement is to provide clinicians, cytogeneticists and molecular geneticists of the Canadian College of Medical Geneticists (CCMG) a comprehensive review of the role of UPD in constitutional genetic diagnosis and to provide a guideline as to when investigation for UPD is recommended. Members of the CCMG Cytogenetics, Molecular Genetics, Clinical Practice, and Prenatal Diagnosis committees reviewed the relevant literature on uniparental disomy (UPD) in constitutional genetic diagnosis (May 2010… Show more

“…For this reason the American College of Medical Genetics and the Canadian College of Medical Genetics have issued statements that UPD testing is only indicated when there is mosaicism for chromsomes 6, 7, 11, 14, and 15 . Results of UPD testing for other chromosomes do not yield clinically useful information . Additionally, the issue of increased risk for autosomal recessive disorders with UPD cannot be assessed through these studies.…”

“…Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) was performed following standard procedures. For chromosomes 7, 11, 14, 15, and 16, the presence of a uniparental disomy (UPD) was tested by polymorphic short tandem repeat analysis using a PCR master mix (Promega (https://www.promega.com/products/pcr/endpoint-pcr/pcr-master-mix/?catNum=M7501)) following a standard protocol …”
