The meiotic segregation of chromosomes was analysed in three reciprocal translocation carriers, using FISH on interphase spermatozoa. The segregation pattern was first studied in 27,844 spermatozoa from two siblings carrying the reciprocal translocation t(6;11)(q14;p14). Three centromeric probes, specific for chromosomes 6, 11 and 1, were simultaneously hybridized so that all centric fragments as well as the ploidy of each cell could be determined by three colour FISH. For both subjects, the respective frequencies of alternate/adjacent 1, adjacent 2, 3:1 and 4:0 segregation modes were 88%, 9%, 3+ and < 1%. In another reciprocal translocation t(2;14)(p23.1;q31), a two colour FISH analysis was performed on 4,610 spermatozoa, using a chromosome 2 centromeric probe and a YAC probe located on the centric fragment of chromosome 14. Frequencies of alternate/adjacent 1, adjacent 2, and 3:1 segregations were 89%, 5.2%, and 5.8% respectively. The segregation of chromosomes X, Y and 1 were also analyzed with three colour FISH on the spermatozoa from all three translocation carriers, in order to detect an interchromosomal effect. Aneuploidy rates for the X and Y chromosomes were found to be in the same range in the three translocation carriers and control donors, but disomy 1 rates were slightly increased in the translocation carriers.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008297 Male Males
D008540 Meiosis A type of CELL NUCLEUS division, occurring during maturation of the GERM CELLS. Two successive cell nucleus divisions following a single chromosome duplication (S PHASE) result in daughter cells with half the number of CHROMOSOMES as the parent cells. M Phase, Meiotic,Meiotic M Phase,M Phases, Meiotic,Meioses,Meiotic M Phases,Phase, Meiotic M,Phases, Meiotic M
D002467 Cell Nucleus Within a eukaryotic cell, a membrane-limited body which contains chromosomes and one or more nucleoli (CELL NUCLEOLUS). The nuclear membrane consists of a double unit-type membrane which is perforated by a number of pores; the outermost membrane is continuous with the ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM. A cell may contain more than one nucleus. (From Singleton & Sainsbury, Dictionary of Microbiology and Molecular Biology, 2d ed) Cell Nuclei,Nuclei, Cell,Nucleus, Cell
D002880 Chromosomes, Human, Pair 11 A specific pair of GROUP C CHROMOSOMES of the human chromosome classification. Chromosome 11
D002883 Chromosomes, Human, Pair 14 A specific pair of GROUP D CHROMOSOMES of the human chromosome classification. Chromosome 14
D002889 Chromosomes, Human, Pair 2 A specific pair of human chromosomes in group A (CHROMOSOMES, HUMAN, 1-3) of the human chromosome classification. Chromosome 2

D013094 Spermatozoa Mature male germ cells derived from SPERMATIDS. As spermatids move toward the lumen of the SEMINIFEROUS TUBULES, they undergo extensive structural changes including the loss of cytoplasm, condensation of CHROMATIN into the SPERM HEAD, formation of the ACROSOME cap, the SPERM MIDPIECE and the SPERM TAIL that provides motility.
