產前診斷Prenatal Diagnosis 鄭博仁副教授
Prenatal Screening • History • Maternal serum screening • Ultrasound • Invasive testing
Genetic History • Previous history • Family history • Ethnic group • Maternal Age
Prior History • Previous aneuploid fetus • Known balanced translocation carrier • Known inversion carrier • History of recurrent miscarriage • History of stillbirth • Previous anomalous fetus
Family History • Autosomal dominant conditions • Autosomal recessive conditions • X-linked recessive conditions • Mental retardation • Congenital cardiac disease
Ethnic Background • African American • Italian, Greek or Mediterranean • Southeast Asian • Eastern European Jewish • French Canadian • Cajun
Thalassemia • DOH ,Taiwan, now recommend offering screening to all prenatal and preconception patients • Carrier frequency and carrier detection rate vary based on on ethnic background
Cystic Fibrosis • Carrier Detection

OSCAR - A One Stop Clinic for Assessment of Risk for fetal anomalies. Kevin Spencer
Developments & Innovations Leading to OSCAR • Ultrasound markers of chromosomal anomalies - fetal nuchal translucency thickness at 10-13 weeks.
Increased fetal nuchal translucency thickness in a case of T21 Upper limbs Head Lower limbs NT
Developments & Innovations Leading to OSCAR • Ultrasound markers of chromosomal anomalies - fetal nuchal translucency thickness at 10-13 weeks. • Biochemical markers of chromosomal anomalies - free hCG & PAPP-A at 10-13 weeks.
Maternal Serum Screening • Second Trimester • AFP, hCG, UE3 • Detection rate for aneuploidy and screen-positive rate vary with maternal age
Maternal Serum Screening • First Trimester • Free b-hCG and PAPP-A • Combined with nuchal translucency screening • Detection rate 82-91% • False positive rate 3.3-7.9%

New Possibilities • Fetal cells in the maternal circulation • Fetal DNA in the maternal circulation
Ultrasound • Major anomalies are frequently associated with chromosomal abnormalities • The incidence of chromosomal abnormalities varies greatly with the type of anatomic defect • 80% for fetal hydrops early in gestation • 2% for facial clefts
Ultrasound • Major anomalies
Ultrasound – Soft Signs • “Soft signs” are ultrasound findings that do not represent anatomic abnormalities but are associated with karyotypic abnormalities • If fetal karyotype is normal, these findings do not have clinical significance
Ultrasound – Soft Signs • These findings are used to increase suspicion for karyotypic abnormalities • Different findings are associated with different risks of aneuploidy • > 5% for a thickened nuchal fold in a high risk patient • 0.2% for a choroid plexus cyst in a low risk patient
Ultrasound • “Soft signs”
產前遺傳診斷技巧 • 超音波 -安全 -妊娠中期操作 • 羊水穿刺 -操作危險性0.5% -妊娠中期操作 -廣泛使用 • 絨毛切片 -操作危險性0.1% -妊娠初期操作 -高難度 • 臍帶穿刺 -操作危險性1% -妊娠中期操作 -極高難度 • 胎兒組織切片 -操作危險性3% -妊娠中期操作 -非常高難度 • 胚胎切片 -發展中
產前診斷的一般準則 • 高遺傳危險性 • 嚴重性疾病 • 無法治療 • 可靠的產前診斷測試 • 妊娠終止可被接受
產前診斷的應用 • 孕婦血清 篩檢 — 甲型胎兒蛋白(AFP)測定 • 超音波 — 構造異常 • 羊水穿刺 — 甲型胎兒蛋白測定 染色體分析 生化分析 • 絨毛切片 — DNA分析 染色體分析 生化分析 • 臍血採樣 —染色體分析 DNA分析
Invasive Testing • Ways to obtain fetal cells for karyotype and DNA testing • Chorionic villus sampling (CVS) • Amniocentesis (amnio)
Fetus (10-12 weeks) Invasive Testing • CVS
Invasive Testing • CVS • 10-12 weeks • Transabdominal or transcervical • Procedure-related loss rate of 1:125-1:175 • No information obtained regarding neural tube defects
Invasive Testing • Amniocentesis
Invasive Testing • Amniocentesis • 15-20 weeks • Amniotic fluid AFP also obtained • Procedure-related risk of 1:200
Fetal Cells in the Maternal Circulation • Non-invasive compared with Amnio and CVS • Involves 2nd trimester maternal blood • Preferable for male fetuses, due to difficulty in distinguishing maternal from female fetal cells at this time • Remains investigational
Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis (PGD) • Requires in vitro fertilization (IVF) • Alternative to CVS or Amnio • Success rate and risks of IVF may be barriers to PGD for some couples
PGD • PGD is based on ability to remove nucleus of one cell in an early embryo (8 or 16 cells), when all cells are totipotent, ie, the loss of a single cell does not compromise development • Has been carried out for MCAD deficiency, Tay-Sachs disease and sickle cell disease
遺傳病治療(Gene Therapy) 鄭博仁副教授
基因 基因產物 代謝作用 功能作用 構造作用
Genetic diagnosis Direct enzyme analysis Phenylketonuria - absence of phenylalanine hydroxylase - inadequate tyrosine synthesis - mental retardation, etc. Treatment: controlled diet - low in meat, cheese, eggs - high in fruits, grains, vegetables
In Vitro Fertilization Diagnosis: genetic defect Diagnosis: genetic defect ***moral dilemma*** what is a fetus?
In Vitro Fertilization Diagnosis: genetic defect ***moral dilemma*** what is a fetus? Cystic fibrosis - life expectancy 20-30 yrs - medical advances - offspring will be carriers
In Vitro Fertilization Diagnosis: genetic defect ***moral dilemma*** what is a fetus? Tay-Sachs disease - Ashkenazi Jewish descent - hexosaminidase deficiency - invariable fatal during infancy
Treatment of Genetic Diseases No effect on genetic makeup • phenylketonuria — low phenylalanine diet • familial hypercholesterolemia — low cholesterol diet • hemophilia — injection of clotting factors • diabetes — injection of insulin Problems: - adherence to dietary restrictions - repeated injections - side effects - inadequate/excessive dosages - contamination (HIV, HBV, etc.)
Gene Transfer In vivo – cells treated inside the body Ex vivo – cells taken out, treated, replaced Duration of effect: incorporated DNA >> free DNA DNA
Viral Replication 100s - 1000s of progeny virions 1 virion + 1 cell
Adenovirus Retrovirus
Retroviruses Problem: requires dividing cells for integration Packaging vectors: can’t replicate but can still insert DNA
Adenoviruses “stealth” functions - help virus evade immune attack HEK293 cells - transformed with HAd5 E1 DNA E1 proteins
Problems Associated with Viral Gene Therapy • Immune response • Targeting of specific tissues • Toxic effect of viral vectors • Inadequate or limited time response • Integration into cell DNA
