OBJECTIVES: The isolation and analysis of fetal cells in maternal blood during pregnancy is under investigation as a means of noninvasive prenatal diagnosis. The aim of our study was to detect fetal gender from maternal peripherial blood samples during pregnancy with the detection and analysis of epsilon-haemoglobin-chain positive fetal nucleated red blood cells (NRBCs) collected by a micromanipulator. Here we report our first results.
DESIGN AND METHODS: We obtained maternal blood from 14 singleton pregnancies. After a double density gradient separation, magnetic activated cell sorting was performed by positive selection for nucleated red blood cells with anti-CD71. With the help of this enrichment step, followed by immunophenotyping with an anti-haemoglobin-epsilon monoclonal antibody, the isolation of the epsilon haemoglobin chain positive cells with micromanipulation could be done. We performed single cell fluorescent PCR analysis of these cells; we used primers for the amelogenin gene to detect fetal gender. We compared our findings with the results of amniocentesis.
RESULTS: Fetal gender was successfully determined in 11 out of 14 cases; among them, in 2 cases with Klinefelter syndrome (47,XXY).
CONCLUSION: The results of our study suggest that micromanipulation and QF-PCR analysis of anti-haemoglobin-epsilon fluorescent antibody stained fetal cells from maternal blood can be useful in prenatal diagnosis to detect fetal gender and promising to be improved to detect chromosomal abnormalities.
