Cytogenetics
Cytogenetics is the study of the structure and function of chromosomes found within a cell. It is an important tool for understanding the genetic basis of various genetic disorders and helps us to identify and track chromosomal changes that may occur in the body over time. Cytogenetic analysis involves the identification and characterization of chromosomes using techniques such as, karyotyping, fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), and polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Karyotyping involves separating out the 23 pairs of human chromosomes, ordering them, and analyzing them for any structural abnormalities or numerical changes. FISH involves the use of fluorescent labeled probes which bind to specific DNA sequences on the chromosome; this allows for the visualization of any extra or missing portions of chromosomes. PCR allows for the identification and quantification of specific DNA sequences on a chromosome by amplifying them many times over. Overall, cytogenetics provides powerful insights into the genomic makeup of an individual. It can help researchers to identify possible genetic mutations that may be linked to particular genetic disorders, and can also be used to facilitate pre- and post-natal diagnosis. In addition, by identifying chromosomal changes in cancer samples, researchers can gain new insight into the genetics of the disease that can be used to improve diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment. Cytogenetic analysis is an important tool in the ongoing battle against genetic diseases and cancers.
