Genome and chromosome instability in children with neurodevelopmental disorders

https://doi.org/10.25557/2073-7998.2025.09.150-152

Abstract

Regardless of communications about associations between genome/chromosome instability with neurodevelopmental disorders, the corresponding research has not been systematically carried out. Here, 300 blood samples of children with neurodevelopmental diseases (autism, intellectual disability, epilepsy) have been evaluated using cytogenetic analysis and SNP-array. Chromosome instability has been revealed in 25 cases (8.3%), genome insurability has been found in 56 cases (18.7%). Thus, 27% of children with neurodevelopmental diseases demonstrate genomic chaotization mediated by chromosome and genome instability.
