Abstract excerpt
Some studies have suggested that for trisomies, some genes are expressed far in excess of the expected 150% level and that this "dysregulation" is one of the mechanisms for the pathogenesis of trisomies. In an attempt to generalize this result to a monosomy, we examined mRNA isolated from lymphoblastoid cell lines derived from patients with 18q- syndrome, a deletion syndrome involving loss of the distal long arm...
