To verify whether fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) of cells from the buccal epithelium could be employed to detect cryptomosaicism with a 45,X lineage in 46,XY patients.
Samples of nineteen 46,XY healthy young men and five patients with disorders of sex development (DSD), four 45,X/46,XY and one 46,XY were used. FISH analysis with X and Y specific probes on interphase nuclei from blood lymphocytes and buccal epithelium were analyzed to investigate the proportion of nuclei containing only the signal of the X chromosome.
The frequency of nuclei containing only the X signal in the two tissues of healthy men did not differ (p = 0.69). In all patients with DSD this frequency was significantly higher, and there was no difference between the two tissues (p = 0.38), either.
Investigation of mosaicism with a 45,X cell line in patients with 46,XY DSD or sterility can be done by FISH directly using cells from the buccal epithelium.
验证口腔颊黏膜上皮细胞的荧光原位杂交(FISH)技术是否可用于检测46,XY患者中含有45,X细胞系的隐匿性嵌合体。
使用了19名46,XY健康年轻男性以及5名性发育障碍(DSD)患者的样本,其中4名45,X/46,XY患者和1名46,XY患者。对血液淋巴细胞和口腔颊黏膜上皮细胞的间期核进行X和Y特异性探针的FISH分析,以研究仅含X染色体信号的核的比例。
健康男性两种组织中仅含X信号的核的频率无差异(p = 0.69)。在所有DSD患者中,该频率显著更高,且两种组织之间也无差异(p = 0.38)。
对于46,XY DSD或不育患者中45,X细胞系的嵌合体研究,可直接使用口腔颊黏膜上皮细胞通过FISH进行。
