ABSTRACT
Background:
Copy number variations (CNVs) on chromosome 2 are associated with a variety of human diseases particularly neurodevelopmental disorders. Array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) constitutes an added value for the diagnosis of neurodevelopmental or neuropsychiatric diseases. This study aims to establish a genotype-phenotype correlation, reporting CNVs on the chromosome 2, contributing for a better characterization of the molecular significance of rare CNVs in this chromosome.Methods:
To accomplish this, a cross-sectional study was performed using genetic information included in a database of the Department of Genetics of the Faculty of Medicine and clinical data from Hospital database. CNVs were classified as pathogenic, benign, variants of unknown significance, and likely pathogenic or likely benign, in accordance with the ACMG Standards and Guidelines.Results:
A total of 2897 patients were studied using aCGH, 32 with CNVs on chromosome 2, 24 classified as likely pathogenic, and 8 as pathogenic. Genomic intervals with a higher incidence were one 2p25.3 and 2q13 regions.Conclusions:
This study will help to establish new genotype-phenotype correlations, allowing update of databases and literature and the improvement of diagnosis and genetic counseling which could be an added value for prenatal genetic counseling.
