Targeted array comparative genomic hybridisation (array CGH) identifies genomic imbalances associated with isolated congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH)
10 Nov 2010
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) is a congenital birth defect affecting around 1/3000 births. We propose that a significant number of isolated CDH cases have an underlying genetic cause, and that a subset of these result from copy number variations (CNVs) identifiable by array CGH. METHODOLOGY: We have designed a custom array targeted at genes and genomic loci associated with CDH. A total of 79...
