“…CIN presenting as monosomy and trisomy has been confirmed in all of these cases. CIN cases have also exhibited 4-9 copy number variations (CNV) encompassing genes, involved in the pathways to genome instability and somatic mosaicism (genome stability, DNA reparation/replication, mitotic checkpoint, cell cycle regulation and programmed cell death) [35][36][37]. Using bioinformatics for processing molecular karyotypes and addressing previously published data [8,12,18,20,25,[38][39][40][41][42], we have concluded that a proportion of these cases of intellectual disability, autism, epilepsy and/or congenital malformations is likely to be associated with chromosomal instability, which is an element of the pathogenetic cascade and thereby, should be recognized as a contributor to the phenotypic manifestations.…”
