Karyotyping in postnatal diagnosis
Karyotyping to determine numerical and structural chromosomal aberrations (deviations) in postnatal diagnosis.
Material:
Peripheral bloodTurnover Time:
8 weeksSTATIM
4 weeksDetection of aberrations by FISH
Genetic testing to specify structural chromosomal aberrations or to accurately quantify mosaicism in a sample.
Material:
Peripheral bloodTurnover Time:
4 weeksSTATIM
1 weekDetection of deletions in genes associated with hearing impairment
Testing for STRC, OTOA, CATSPER2 gene duplication/deletion by Multiplex Ligation-dependent Probe Amplification (MLPA), responsible for hearing impairment: DFNB16, DFNB22.
Material:
Peripheral blood, Buccal swab …Turnover Time:
3 weeksSTATIM
3 daysDetermination of TPMT mutation status, allele *1, *2, *3A, *3B, *3C (mutations c.238G>C, c.460G>A and c.719A>G)
TPMT gene testing is performed by PCR and reverse hybridization strip assay to detect *1, *2, *3A, *3B, *3C alleles (c.238G>C, c.460G>A and c.719A>G mutations), which are responsible for the reduced activity of this enzyme catalyzing components of thiopurine drugs used in cancer therapy.
Material:
Peripheral blood, Buccal swab …Turnover Time:
3 weeksSTATIM
3 daysDetermination of NUDT15 gene mutation status, allele *1, *2, *3, *4, *5 (mutation c. 415C>T, c. 416 G>A and c.52G>A)
NUDT15 gene testing by real-time PCR is performed to detect NUDT15*1, NUDT15*2, NUDT15*3, NUDT15*4, and NUDT15*5 alleles (c. 415C>T, c. 416G>A, and c.52G>A), which are involved in the metabolism of thiopurine drugs.
Material:
Peripheral blood, Buccal swab …Turnover Time:
3 weeksSTATIM
1 weekKIR (Killer-cell immunoglobulin-like receptor) haplotype evaluation
The KIR haplotype (A/B) determination method allows for the identification of the mother's genetic makeup in the region of KIR receptors. These receptors play a crucial role in the communication between the mother's immune system and the embryo during pregnancy, where they recognize HLA-C molecules on the embryo's surface. Analysis of the KIR haplotype can help reveal specific maternal genotypes that, in combination with the fetal HLA-C, may be associated with a higher risk of pregnancy complications.
