OBJECTIVE: To estimate nuclear size and integrated optical density of parenchymal cells from various organs in patients with Down syndrome and a control group.
STUDY DESIGN: During the years 1988-2000, 14 cases of Down syndrome were found (8 male and 6 female). Ten infants without congenital anomalies died of respiratory distress syndrome and were used as a control group. Five nuclear variables were estimated: area, equivalent diameter, volume of equivalent sphere, roundness and total optical density (TOD).
RESULTS: Mean nuclear volume and TOD of thyroid follicular cells were significantly lower in patients with Down syndrome (43.82 +/- 8.95 and 173.81 +/- 32.85 microns 3, respectively) than in the control group (65.46 +/- 15.31 and 234.58 +/- 32.85 microns 3, respectively) (P < .01). Mean hepatocite nuclear volume and TOD were significantly higher in the control group (165.54 +/- 55.42 and 220.84 +/- 51.75 microns 3, respectively) than in trisomy 21 (110.39 +/- 32.97 and 176.58 +/- 28.53 microns 3, respectively) (P < .05).
CONCLUSION: The present results suggest altered gene expression in excessive genetic material, especially in thyroid follicular cells.
