Objective: To determine the frequency of chromosomal aberrations in chorions after a miscarriage. The second was to examine selected euploid chorions using a next-generation sequencing (NGS) panel designed to assess 43 genes associated with pregnancy loss. Materials and methods: The 1244 chorions were tested by targeted quantitative fluorescent PCR (QF-PCR, 827 chorions) and microarray-based comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH, 417 chorions). Then, 9 euploid chorions were examined using a designed NGS panel. Results: Trisomies were the most common chromosomal aberration identified in the spontaneous miscarriage samples. The second chromosomal abnormality in the aCGH group and the third most common in the QF-PCR group was monosomy X. Structural aberrations were the third most common aberration in the samples screened by aCGH (7.7% of chorions). In 19% of 647 couples who submitted chorions for analysis after pregnancy loss, the chromosomal abnormality in the chorion originated from a woman with a balanced chromosomal rearrangement. This discovery was statistically significant compared to patients with normal chorions. Using the designed NGS panel, we identified a potentially pathogenic de novo variant in the F5 gene in two euploid chorions. Additionally, among the patients who experienced miscarriages and were screened using the NGS panel, we identified variants in the MDM, ACE, and NLRP2 genes that could be associated with a predisposition to pregnancy loss. Conclusion: Numerical aberrations are the most common cause of miscarriages, but structural chromosomal aberrations also account for a significant proportion of abnormal results. Our findings indicate that couples with structural chromosomal abnormalities in material post-miscarriage are at increased risk of carrying balanced chromosomal abnormalities. Moreover, NGS-based analyses can uncover previously unidentified causes of miscarriages in the chorionic villi. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
