The role of new genetic technologies for the analysis of early human embryos: clinical application and research

Abstract:

Mutations of the beta-globin gene (HBB) are the most common cause of inherited disease in humans, causing ß-thalassaemia and sickle cell anaemia. Traditional preimplantation genetic testing (PGT) protocols for the detection of HBB mutations frequently involve labour intensive, patient-specific test designs owing to the wide diversity of disease-associated HBB mutations. Chapter 1 focuses on the development, validation and clinical implementation of a novel and universally applicable PGT me...
