    Cytogenomic Investigation of Syndromic Brazilian Patients with Differences of Sexual Development
    (2023) JR, Jose Antonio Diniz Faria; MORAES, Daniela R.; KULIKOWSKI, Leslie Domenici; BATISTA, Rafael Loch; GOMES, Nathalia Lisboa; NISHI, Mirian Yumie; ZANARDO, Evelin; NONAKA, Carolina Kymie Vasques; SOUZA, Bruno Solano de Freitas; MENDONCA, Berenice Bilharinho; DOMENICE, Sorahia
    Background: Cytogenomic methods have gained space in the clinical investigation of patients with disorders/differences in sexual development (DSD). Here we evaluated the role of the SNP array in achieving a molecular diagnosis in Brazilian patients with syndromic DSD of unknown etiology. Methods: Twenty-two patients with DSD and syndromic features were included in the study and underwent SNP-array analysis. Results: In two patients, the diagnosis of 46,XX SRY + DSD was established. Additionally, two deletions were revealed (3q29 and Xp22.33), justifying the syndromic phenotype in these patients. Two pathogenic CNVs, a 10q25.3-q26.2 and a 13q33.1 deletion encompassing the FGFR2 and the EFNB2 gene, were associated with genital atypia and syndromic characteristics in two patients with 46,XY DSD. In a third 46,XY DSD patient, we identified a duplication in the 14q11.2-q12 region of 6.5 Mb associated with a deletion in the 21p11.2-q21.3 region of 12.7 Mb. In a 46,XY DSD patient with delayed neuropsychomotor development and congenital cataracts, a 12 Kb deletion on chromosome 10 was found, partially clarifying the syndromic phenotype, but not the genital atypia. Conclusions: The SNP array is a useful tool for DSD patients, identifying the molecular etiology in 40% (2/5) of patients with 46,XX DSD and 17.6% (3/17) of patients with 46,XY DSD.

    A Small Supernumerary Xp Marker Chromosome Including Genes NR0B1 and MAGEB Causing Partial Gonadal Dysgenesis and Gonadoblastoma
    (2022) NISHI, M. Y.; JúNIOR, J. A. D. Faria; KREPISCHI, A. C. V.; MORAES, D. R. De; COSTA, S. S. Da; SILVA, E. S. D. N.; COSTA, E. M. F.; MENDONCA, B. B.; DOMENICE, S.
    Copy number variations of several genes involved in the process of gonadal determination have been identified as a cause of 46,XY differences of sex development. We report a non-syndromic 14-year-old female patient who was referred with primary amenorrhea, absence of breast development, and atypical genitalia. Her karyotype was 47,XY,+mar/46,XY, and FISH analysis revealed the X chromosome origin of the marker chromosome. Array-CGH data identified a pathogenic 2.0-Mb gain of an Xp21.2 segment containing NR0B1/DAX1 and a 1.9-Mb variant of unknown significance from the Xp11.21p11.1 region. This is the first report of a chromosomal microarray analysis to reveal the genetic content of a small supernumerary marker chromosome detected in a 47,XY,+der(X)/46,XY karyotype in a non-syndromic girl with partial gonadal dysgenesis and gonadoblastoma. Our findings indicate that the mosaic presence of the small supernumerary Xp marker, encompassing the NR0B1/DAX1 gene, may have been the main cause of dysgenetic testes development, although the role of MAGEB and other genes mapped to the Xp21 segment could not be completely ruled out.
