| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Copy Number Variation (CNV) defining a DNA segment 100 kilobases or larger in size and present at variable copy numbers in comparison with a reference genome were investigated in unbiased 15 parent-offspring pairs with Moyamoya disease (MMD). Clinical anticipation, defining that pediatric patient(s) were born from adult-onset parent(s), was confirmed in 10 pairs. Genome-wide CNV array analysis detected 211 CNV loci throughout the genome except for chr.21. Of these, overlapping CNV loci for more than 3 individuals were seen in 10 segments in autosomes. CNV in a region of chr16p13.3 was a unique locus, in which copy number state between each parent and offspring pairs varied. Notably for this CNV, copy number gain was observed in the offspring with anticipation compared to the parents. Copy number gain on chr16p13.3, containing 14 genes, may contribute to the anticipation of familial MMD by altering gene dosage in variable possible forms, although further validation is necessary.
