TLDR
The data suggest that vision and hearing impairment, seizures, failure to thrive and recurrent infections, particularly otitis media, are common in this syndrome.Abstract:
Emanuel syndrome is characterized by multiple congenital anomalies and developmental disability. It is caused by the presence of a supernumerary derivative chromosome that contains material from chromosomes 11 and 22. The origin of this imbalance is 3:1 malsegregation of a parental balanced translocation between chromosomes 11 and 22, which is the most common recurrent reciprocal translocation in humans. Little has been published on the clinical features of this syndrome since the 1980s and information on natural history is limited. We designed a questionnaire to collect information from families recruited through an international online support group, Chromosome 22 Central. Data gathered include information on congenital anomalies, medical and surgical history, developmental and behavioral issues, and current abilities. We received information on 63 individuals with Emanuel syndrome, ranging in age from newborn to adulthood. As previously recognized, congenital anomalies were common, the most frequent being ear pits (76%), micrognathia (60%), heart malformations (57%), and cleft palate (54%). Our data suggest that vision and hearing impairment, seizures, failure to thrive and recurrent infections, particularly otitis media, are common in this syndrome. Psychomotor development is uniformly delayed, however the majority of individuals (over 70%) eventually learn to walk with support. Language development and ability for self-care are also very impaired. This study provides new information on the clinical spectrum and natural history of Emanuel syndrome for families and physicians caring for these individuals.read more

TL;DR: Induced pluripotent stem cell lines generated from Turner syndrome patients support that abnormal organogenesis and early lethality in TS are not caused by a tissue-specific differentiation blockade, but rather involves other abnormalities including impaired placentation.

TL;DR: The authors' results demonstrate that the extra or missing chromosome has extensive effects on the whole transcriptome, and functional analysis of differentially expressed genes reveals that the genes most affected in aneuploid individuals are related to central nervous system development and tumorigenesis.

Genetics and signaling mechanisms of orofacial clefts
TL;DR: Many of the genetic risk factors that may contribute to the presentation of orofacial clefts in patients are discussed and several of the key signaling pathways and underlying cellular mechanisms that control lip and palate formation, as identified primarily through investigating equivalent processes in animal models, are examined.

TL;DR: A segregation analysis revealed that in families ascertained through probands with unbalanced karyotypes there was a ratio of carriers to normal (all karyotyped) 54:55, not a significant difference, which suggests that heterozygosity for the translocation reduces fertility in males.

Site‐specific reciprocal translocation, t(11;22) (q23;q11), in several unrelated families with 3:1 meiotic disjunction
TL;DR: To the authors' knowledge, with the exclusion of centric fusion translocations, this represents the only example of nonrandom exchange in a constitutional chromosome rearrangement.

Regions of genomic instability on 22q11 and 11q23 as the etiology for the recurrent constitutional t(11;22)
TL;DR: It is likely that the palindromic ATRRs produce unstable DNA structures in 22q11 and 11q23 that are responsible for the recurrent t(11;22) translocation, suggesting instability of this region in bacterial clones.

TL;DR: This work demonstrates how DNA sequence dosage analysis can be used to study genetic disorders that are not readily amenable to standard cytogenetic analysis.

Long AT-rich palindromes and the constitutional t(11;22) breakpoint
TL;DR: The data lend support to the hypothesis that palindrome-mediated double-strand breaks in meiosis cause illegitimate recombination between 11q23 and 22q11 resulting in this recurrent translocation.
