AIM: To determine the value of short-tandem repeat markers on the chromosome X (X-STR) for prenatal diagnostics of the chromosome X numerical disorders.

METHODS: We investigated the genetic variability of 5 X-markers (DXS9895, DXS6810, DXS6803, GATA172D05, and HPRTB) in 183 healthy Croatian individuals (90 men and 93 women). We also tested 13 patients with X chromosome disorders (Turner syndrome--6 cases; Klinefelter syndrome--5 cases, and Triple X syndrome--2 cases). The analysis was performed using polymerase chain reaction amplification with specific primers and electrophoresis on a polyacrylamide gel. The study was performed in 2010.

RESULTS: Our sample showed no significant differences in allelic frequencies of the investigated X-markers from other European populations. A set of 5 X-STR markers was sufficiently informative for a successful determination of the chromosome X numerical abnormalities.

CONCLUSION: Since no false positive or negative results were observed, diagnostic value of the investigated X-STR loci for prenatal detection of chromosome X numerical disorders was confirmed. Our study represents an important step toward an improved prenatal diagnostics in Croatia.
