Aim. Assessment of the embryos genetic characteristics from translocation carriers and analysis of the translocation research methodology. Methods. The chromosome structure was analyzed using classical cytogenetics methods, GTG, FISH. Preimplantation genetic testing to identify structural rearrangements of the embryos chromosomes was performed on trophectoderm cells using NGS and FISH methods. Results. The proportion of translocation carriers in the sample of patients with reproductive disorders (n = 6156) was 1.1 %, with 0.4 % – for Robertson translations and 0.8 % for reciprocal ones. 5-day-old embryos with balanced reciprocal translocations are 3-4 times less than with unbalanced ones. Euploid embryos with balanced variants from translocation carriers-mothers and -fathers, amounted to 14.3 % and 12.5 %. Aneuploid embryos with unbalanced translocations accounted for 59.2 % of mothers and 63.2 % of fathers of all received embryos, 80.6 % and 77.8 % of unbalanced ones. Conclusions. Understanding the prevalence of segmental karyotype disorders among the population and modern research methods allows to optimize reproductive care for patients. Keywords: reciprocal translocations, embryos, PGT-SR, NGS, FISH.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
