Abstract
Duplications of the 3q29 cytoband are rare chromosomal copy number variations (CNVs) (overlapping or recurrent ~1.6 Mb 3q29 duplications). They have been associated with highly variable neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) with various associated features or reported as a susceptibility factor to the development of learning disabilities and neuropsychiatric disorders. The smallest region of overlap and the phenotype of 3q29 duplications remain uncertain. We here report a French cohort of 31 families with a 3q29 duplication identified by chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA), including 14 recurrent 1.6 Mb duplications, eight overlapping duplications (>1 Mb), and nine small duplications (<1 Mb). Additional genetic findings that may be involved in the phenotype were identified in 11 patients. Focusing on apparently isolated 3q29 duplications, patients present mainly mild NDD as suggested by a high rate of learning disabilities in contrast to a low proportion of patients with intellectual disabilities. Although some are de novo, most of the 3q29 duplications are inherited from a parent with a similar mild phenotype. Besides, the study of small 3q29 duplications does not provide evidence for any critical region. Our data suggest that the overlapping and recurrent 3q29 duplications seem to lead to mild NDD and that a severe or syndromic clinical presentation should warrant further genetic analyses.

Abstract
PURPOSE Cytogenetic analysis provides important information for prenatal decision-making and genetic counseling. Optical genome mapping (OGM) has demonstrated its performances in retrospective studies. In our prospective study, we assessed the quality of DNA obtained from cultures of amniotic fluid (AF) and chorionic villi (CV) and evaluated the ability of OGM to detect all clinically relevant aberrations identified by standard methods. METHODS A total of 37 prenatal samples from pregnancies with a fetal anomaly on ultrasound were analyzed prospectively by OGM between January 1, 2021 and June 31, 2022. OGM results were interpreted blindly and compared to the results obtained by standard techniques. RESULTS OGM results were interpretable in 92% of samples. We observed 100% concordance between OGM and karyotype and/or chromosomal microarray results. In addition, OGM identified a median of 30 small (<100 kb) structural variations per case with the involvement of 12 OMIM genes, of which 3 were OMIM morbid genes. CONCLUSION This prospective study showed OGM performed well in detecting genomic alterations in cell cultures from prenatal samples. The place of OGM in relation to CMA or exome sequencing remains to be defined in order to optimize the prenatal diagnostic procedure.

Abstract
Chromoanagenesis is a cellular mechanism that leads to complex chromosomal rearrangements (CCR) during a single catastrophic event. It may result in loss and/or gain of genetic material and may be responsible for various phenotypes. These rearrangements are usually sporadic. However, some familial cases have been reported. Here, we studied six families in whom an asymptomatic or paucisymptomatic parent transmitted a CCR to its offspring in an unbalanced manner. The rearrangements were characterized by karyotyping, fluorescent in situ hybridization, chromosomal microarray (CMA) and/or whole genome sequencing (WGS) in the carrier parents and offspring. We then hypothesized meiosis-pairing figures between normal and abnormal parental chromosomes that may have led to the formation of new unbalanced rearrangements through meiotic recombination. Our work indicates that chromoanagenesis might be associated with a normal phenotype and normal fertility, even in males, and that WGS may be the only way to identify these events when there is no imbalance. Subsequently, the CCR can be transmitted to the next generation in an unbalanced and unpredictable manner following meiotic recombination. Thereby, prenatal diagnosis using CMA should be proposed to these families to detect any pathogenic imbalances in the offspring.

Abstract
Chromosome 1p36 deletion syndrome (1p36DS) is one of the most common terminal deletion syndromes (incidence between 1/5000 and 1/10,000 live births in the American population), due to a heterozygous deletion of part of the short arm of chromosome 1. The 1p36DS is characterized by typical craniofacial features, developmental delay/intellectual disability, hypotonia, epilepsy, cardiomyopathy/congenital heart defect, brain abnormalities, hearing loss, eyes/vision problem, and short stature. The aim of our study was to (1) evaluate the incidence of the 1p36DS in the French population compared to 22q11.2 deletion syndrome and trisomy 21; (2) review the postnatal phenotype related to microarray data, compared to previously publish prenatal data. Thanks to a collaboration with the ACLF (Association des Cytogénéticiens de Langue Française), we have collected data of 86 patients constituting, to the best of our knowledge, the second-largest cohort of 1p36DS patients in the literature. We estimated an average of at least 10 cases per year in France. 1p36DS seems to be much less frequent than 22q11.2 deletion syndrome and trisomy 21. Patients presented mainly dysmorphism, microcephaly, developmental delay/intellectual disability, hypotonia, epilepsy, brain malformations, behavioral disorders, cardiomyopathy, or cardiovascular malformations and, pre and/or postnatal growth retardation. Cardiac abnormalities, brain malformations, and epilepsy were more frequent in distal deletions, whereas microcephaly was more common in proximal deletions. Mapping and genotype-phenotype correlation allowed us to identify four critical regions responsible for intellectual disability. This study highlights some phenotypic variability, according to the deletion position, and helps to refine the phenotype of 1p36DS, allowing improved management and follow-up of patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acro-osteolysis (AO) refers to resorption of the distal finger and toe phalanges. It displays two patterns: (i) diffuse AO and (ii) transverse or bandlike AO. AO can be a sign of local distress (e.g. of toxic origin), but is very often a sign of a constitutional or systemic acquired disorder. CASE PRESENTATION A 15-year-old girl was referred to a paediatric rheumatologist for recurrent pain in her fingertips. She presented a particular cross-sectional AO associated with the presence of intraosseous cysts and bone fragility with atypical fractures. Initial laboratory tests and radiological examination did not allow an etiological diagnosis. Genetic studies revealed a 12p11.22-p11.23 microduplication of 900 kb including the PTHLH (parathyroid hormone-like hormone) gene, which encodes for a hormone involved in the regulation of endochondral ossification and differentiation of chondrocytes, via its PTHLH receptor. CONCLUSIONS To date, 12p11.22-p11.23 duplications have been reported in five families with skeletal abnormalities, and in particular AO and enchondromatosis associated with bone fragility. This new observation, added to the other reported cases, suggests a close relationship between the presence of this microduplication and the skeletal abnormalities found in the patient. We suggest the descriptive name ABES (acro-osteolysis, bone fragility and enchondromatosis syndrome) to designate this disorder.

Abstract
Inverted duplication deletion 8p [invdupdel(8p)] is a complex and rare chromosomal rearrangement that combines a distal deletion and an inverted interstitial duplication of the short arm of chromosome 8. Carrier patients usually have developmental delay and intellectual disability (ID), associated with various cerebral and extra-cerebral malformations. Invdupdel(8p) is the most common recurrent chromosomal rearrangement in ID patients with anomalies of the corpus callosum (AnCC). Only a minority of invdupdel(8p) cases reported in the literature to date had both brain cerebral imaging and chromosomal microarray (CMA) with precise breakpoints of the rearrangements, making genotype-phenotype correlation studies for AnCC difficult. In this study, we report the clinical, radiological, and molecular data from 36 new invdupdel(8p) cases including three fetuses and five individuals from the same family, with breakpoints characterized by CMA. Among those, 97% (n = 32/33) of patients presented with mild to severe developmental delay/ID and 34% had seizures with mean age of onset of 3.9 years (2 months-9 years). Moreover, out of the 24 patients with brain MRI and 3 fetuses with neuropathology analysis, 63% (n = 17/27) had AnCC. We review additional data from 99 previously published patients with invdupdel(8p) and compare data of 17 patients from the literature with both CMA analysis and brain imaging to refine genotype-phenotype correlations for AnCC. This led us to refine a region of 5.1 Mb common to duplications of patients with AnCC and discuss potential candidate genes within this region.

Abstract
Chromosomal aberrations including structural variations (SVs) are a major cause of human genetic diseases. Their detection in clinical routine still relies on standard cytogenetics. Drawbacks of these tests are a very low resolution (karyotyping) and the inability to detect balanced SVs or indicate the genomic localization and orientation of duplicated segments or insertions (copy number variant [CNV] microarrays). Here, we investigated the ability of optical genome mapping (OGM) to detect known constitutional chromosomal aberrations. Ultra-high-molecular-weight DNA was isolated from 85 blood or cultured cells and processed via OGM. A de novo genome assembly was performed followed by structural variant and CNV calling and annotation, and results were compared to known aberrations from standard-of-care tests (karyotype, FISH, and/or CNV microarray). In total, we analyzed 99 chromosomal aberrations, including seven aneuploidies, 19 deletions, 20 duplications, 34 translocations, six inversions, two insertions, six isochromosomes, one ring chromosome, and four complex rearrangements. Several of these variants encompass complex regions of the human genome involved in repeat-mediated microdeletion/microduplication syndromes. High-resolution OGM reached 100% concordance compared to standard assays for all aberrations with non-centromeric breakpoints. This proof-of-principle study demonstrates the ability of OGM to detect nearly all types of chromosomal aberrations. We also suggest suited filtering strategies to prioritize clinically relevant aberrations and discuss future improvements. These results highlight the potential for OGM to provide a cost-effective and easy-to-use alternative that would allow comprehensive detection of chromosomal aberrations and structural variants, which could give rise to an era of "next-generation cytogenetics."

Abstract
BACKGROUND The 10q26 subtelomeric microdeletion syndrome is a rare and clinically heterogeneous disorder. The precise relationships between the causative genes and the phenotype are unclear. CASE PRESENTATION We report two new cases of 860 kb deletion of 10q26.2 identified by array CGH in a fetus with intrauterine growth retardation and his mother. The deleted region encompassed only four coding genes, DOCK1, INSYN2, NPS and FOX12. The proband had dysmorphic facies characterized by a high forehead, malformed ears, a prominent nose, and retrognathia. He had bilateral club feet, clinodactily and mild psychomotor retardation. His mother had a short stature, microcephaly, a long face with a high forehead and bitemporal narrowing, arched and sparse eyebrows, strabismus, prominent nose and chin, a thin upper lip and large protruding ears, and mild intellectual disability. CONCLUSIONS This study presents the smallest 10q26.2 deletion so far identified, which further refines the minimal critical region associated with the 10q26 microdeletion syndrome. It focuses on three genes potentially responsible for the phenotype: DOCK1, which is the major candidate gene, and INSYN2 and NPS, which could be involved in cognitive functions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Balanced chromosomal rearrangements associated with abnormal phenotype are rare events, but may be challenging for genetic counselling, since molecular characterisation of breakpoints is not performed routinely. We used next-generation sequencing to characterise breakpoints of balanced chromosomal rearrangements at the molecular level in patients with intellectual disability and/or congenital anomalies. METHODS Breakpoints were characterised by a paired-end low depth whole genome sequencing (WGS) strategy and validated by Sanger sequencing. Expression study of disrupted and neighbouring genes was performed by RT-qPCR from blood or lymphoblastoid cell line RNA. RESULTS Among the 55 patients included (41 reciprocal translocations, 4 inversions, 2 insertions and 8 complex chromosomal rearrangements), we were able to detect 89% of chromosomal rearrangements (49/55). Molecular signatures at the breakpoints suggested that DNA breaks arose randomly and that there was no major influence of repeated elements. Non-homologous end-joining appeared as the main mechanism of repair (55% of rearrangements). A diagnosis could be established in 22/49 patients (44.8%), 15 by gene disruption (KANSL1, FOXP1, SPRED1, TLK2, MBD5, DMD, AUTS2, MEIS2, MEF2C, NRXN1, NFIX, SYNGAP1, GHR, ZMIZ1) and 7 by position effect (DLX5, MEF2C, BCL11B, SATB2, ZMIZ1). In addition, 16 new candidate genes were identified. Systematic gene expression studies further supported these results. We also showed the contribution of topologically associated domain maps to WGS data interpretation. CONCLUSION Paired-end WGS is a valid strategy and may be used for structural variation characterisation in a clinical setting.

Abstract
ACTB encodes β-actin, an abundant cytoskeletal housekeeping protein. In humans, postulated gain-of-function missense mutations cause Baraitser-Winter syndrome (BRWS), characterized by intellectual disability, cortical malformations, coloboma, sensorineural deafness, and typical facial features. To date, the consequences of loss-of-function ACTB mutations have not been proven conclusively. We describe heterozygous ACTB deletions and nonsense and frameshift mutations in 33 individuals with developmental delay, apparent intellectual disability, increased frequency of internal organ malformations (including those of the heart and the renal tract), growth retardation, and a recognizable facial gestalt (interrupted wavy eyebrows, dense eyelashes, wide nose, wide mouth, and a prominent chin) that is distinct from characteristics of individuals with BRWS. Strikingly, this spectrum overlaps with that of several chromatin-remodeling developmental disorders. In wild-type mouse embryos, β-actin expression was prominent in the kidney, heart, and brain. ACTB mRNA expression levels in lymphoblastic lines and fibroblasts derived from affected individuals were decreased in comparison to those in control cells. Fibroblasts derived from an affected individual and ACTB siRNA knockdown in wild-type fibroblasts showed altered cell shape and migration, consistent with known roles of cytoplasmic β-actin. We also demonstrate that ACTB haploinsufficiency leads to reduced cell proliferation, altered expression of cell-cycle genes, and decreased amounts of nuclear, but not cytoplasmic, β-actin. In conclusion, we show that heterozygous loss-of-function ACTB mutations cause a distinct pleiotropic malformation syndrome with intellectual disability. Our biological studies suggest that a critically reduced amount of this protein alters cell shape, migration, proliferation, and gene expression to the detriment of brain, heart, and kidney development.

Abstract
The neuromuscular junction (NMJ) is one of the best-studied cholinergic synapses. Inherited defects of peripheral neurotransmission result in congenital myasthenic syndromes (CMSs), a clinically and genetically heterogeneous group of rare diseases with fluctuating fatigable muscle weakness as the clinical hallmark. Whole-exome sequencing and Sanger sequencing in six unrelated families identified compound heterozygous and homozygous mutations in SLC5A7 encoding the presynaptic sodium-dependent high-affinity choline transporter 1 (CHT), which is known to be mutated in one dominant form of distal motor neuronopathy (DHMN7A). We identified 11 recessive mutations in SLC5A7 that were associated with a spectrum of severe muscle weakness ranging from a lethal antenatal form of arthrogryposis and severe hypotonia to a neonatal form of CMS with episodic apnea and a favorable prognosis when well managed at the clinical level. As expected given the critical role of CHT for multisystemic cholinergic neurotransmission, autonomic dysfunctions were reported in the antenatal form and cognitive impairment was noticed in half of the persons with the neonatal form. The missense mutations induced a near complete loss of function of CHT activity in cell models. At the human NMJ, a delay in synaptic maturation and an altered maintenance were observed in the antenatal and neonatal forms, respectively. Increased synaptic expression of butyrylcholinesterase was also observed, exposing the dysfunction of cholinergic metabolism when CHT is deficient in vivo. This work broadens the clinical spectrum of human diseases resulting from reduced CHT activity and highlights the complexity of cholinergic metabolism at the synapse.

Abstract
Although 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11.2DS) is the most recurrent human microdeletion syndrome associated with a highly variable phenotype, little is known about the condition's true incidence and the phenotype at diagnosis. We performed a multicenter, retrospective analysis of postnatally diagnosed patients recruited by members of the Association des Cytogénéticiens de Langue Française (the French-Speaking Cytogeneticists Association). Clinical and cytogenetic data on 749 cases diagnosed between 1995 and 2013 were collected by 31 French cytogenetics laboratories. The most frequent reasons for referral of postnatally diagnosed cases were a congenital heart defect (CHD, 48.6%), facial dysmorphism (49.7%) and developmental delay (40.7%). Since 2007 (the year in which array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) was introduced for the routine screening of patients with intellectual disability), almost all cases have been diagnosed using FISH (96.1%). Only 15 cases (all with an atypical phenotype) were diagnosed with aCGH; the deletion size ranged from 745 to 2904 kb. The deletion was inherited in 15.0% of cases and was of maternal origin in 85.5% of the latter. This is the largest yet documented cohort of patients with 22q11.2DS (the most commonly diagnosed microdeletion) from the same population. French cytogenetics laboratories diagnosed at least 108 affected patients (including fetuses) per year from among a national population of ∼66 million. As observed for prenatal diagnoses, CHDs were the most frequently detected malformation in postnatal diagnoses. The most common CHD in postnatal diagnoses was an isolated septal defect.

Abstract
Fetuses with increased nuchal translucency thickness (NT) are at increased risk for chromosomal abnormalities. In case of a normal karyotype, a minority of them may present with structural abnormalities or genetic syndromes, which may be related to submicroscopic chromosomal imbalances. The objective of this study was to evaluate whether MLPA screening of 21 syndromic and subtelomeric regions could improve the detection rate of small chromosomal aberrations in fetuses with increased NT and a normal karyotype. A total of 106 prenatal samples from fetuses with NT ≥ 99th centile and normal R- and G-banding were analyzed by MLPA for subtelomeric imbalances (SALSA P036 and P070) and 21 syndromic regions (SALSA P245). One sample showed a benign CNV (dup(8)pter, FBXO25 gene), and 1 patient was found to have a loss of 18 qter and a gain of 5 pter as a result of an unbalanced translocation. The incidence of cryptic pathogenic variants was <1% or 2.7% when only fetuses with other ultrasound abnormalities were taken into account. Submicroscopic imbalances in fetuses with increased NT may be individually rare, and genome-wide screening seems more likely to improve the diagnostic yield in these fetuses.

Abstract
Microdeletions of 17q12 encompassing TCF2 are associated with maturity-onset of diabetes of the young type 5, cystic renal disease, pancreatic atrophy, Mullerian aplasia in females and variable cognitive impairment. We report on a patient with a de novo 17q12 microdeletion, 1.8 Mb in size, associated with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH). The 5-year-old male patient presented multicystic renal dysplasia kidneys, minor facial dysmorphic features and skeletal anomalies, but neither developmental delay nor behavioral abnormalities. CDH has been previously associated with the 17q12 microdeletion syndrome only in one prenatal case. The present study reinforces the hypothesis that CDH is part of the phenotype for 17q12 microdeletion and that 17q12 encompasses candidate(s) gene(s) involved in diaphragm development. We suggest that PIGW, a gene involved in an early step of GPI biosynthesis, could be a strong candidate gene for CDH.

Abstract
High proportion of disease-associated copy number variant maps to chromosome 17. Genomic studies have provided an insight into its complex genomic structure such as relative abundance of segmental duplication and intercepted repetitive elements. 17q21.31, 17q11.2 and 17q12 loci are well known on this chromosome and are associated with microdeletion and microduplication syndrome. No syndrome associated with 17q21.33 locus have been described. We report clinical, cytogenetic and molecular investigations of a 13 years-old girl admitted for evaluation of microcephaly, scoliosis, skeletal defects and learning difficulties. We carried out detailed analysis of the clinical phenotype of this patient and investigated the genetic basis using Agilent 180K Array Comparative Genomic Hybridization. We identified a ∼0.9 Mb de novo microduplication on chromosome 17q21.33. Four genes, COL1A1, SGCA, PPP1R9B and CHAD located within the duplicated region are possible candidates for clinical features present in our patients. Gene expression studies by real-time RT-PCR assay only showed an overexpression of SGCA (P < 0.01), a component of the dystrophin glycoprotein complex. Defect of SGCA was previously shown to lead to severe childhood autosomal recessive muscular dystrophy (LGMD2D) which result in progressive muscle weakness and can also be associated with hyperlordosis or scoliosis. Further cases with similar duplications are expected to be diagnosed. This will contribute to the delineation of this potential new microduplication syndrome and to improve genetic counseling.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Interstitial 2q36 deletion is a rare event. Only two previously published cases of 2q36 deletions were characterized using array-CGH. This is the first case diagnosed prenatally. METHODS We report on the prenatal diagnosis of a 2q36.1q36.3 interstitial deletion in a fetus with facial dysmorphism, spina bifida, and cleft palate. RESULTS Array-CGH analysis revealed a 5.6 Mb interstitial deletion of the long arm of chromosome 2q36.1q36.3, including the PAX3 and EPHA4 genes. CONCLUSION The present study reinforces the hypothesis that PAX3 haploinsufficiency may be associated with neural tube defects in humans and suggests that the EPHA4 gene might be implicated during palate development. This report also illustrates the added value of array-CGH to detect cryptic chromosomal imbalances in malformed fetuses and to improve genetic counseling prenatally.

Abstract
The 48,XXYY syndrome is a rare uncommon gonosome aneuploidy and its incidence is estimated to be 1:18,000-1:40,000. The phenotype associated with this syndrome, classically described as Klinefelter variant, is extremely variable but developmental abnormalities are always present. Ultrasound signs during pregnancy are inconsistent, and only three prenatal cases have been described in the literature. Here, we report a case of 48,XXYY syndrome identified in prenatal period because of the presence of polyhydramnios and bilateral clubfeet on second trimester ultrasound. This observation shows the importance of chromosomal prenatal diagnosis in cases with bilateral clubfeet on morphologic ultrasound. This diagnosis is essential for further characterization of the prenatal phenotype and to improving genetic counselling.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It is known from postnatal diagnosis that imbalances of the subtelomeric regions contribute significantly to idiopathic mental retardation. PATIENT AND METHODS We report a case of a 4-year-old child with growth retardation, minor physical abnormalities, hypotonia and developmental delay associated with a derivative chromosome 4. Molecular cytogenetic investigations were performed to characterize the chromosomal rearrangement. RESULTS Multi fluorescence in situ hybridization revealed the presence of chromosome 2 material on the derivative chromosome 4. Metaphase comparative genomic hybridization detected a terminal 4q34 deletion. Array CGH analysis could precise breakpoints with duplication 2q36 → qter. The clinical phenotype was similar to those described in cases with a trisomy 2qter. CONCLUSION This study emphasizes the value of array CGH to detect or characterize chromosome rearrangements in mentally retarded patients. Unlike metaphase CGH, the high resolution of array CGH in subtelomeric regions allows an accurate description of chromosomal aberrations.
