Presence of RCs in a genome can lead to several rare genetic diseases. This book, edited by the leading experts Prof. Peining Li and Prof. Thomas Liehr, is the first comprehensive book on this topic. Over the past 60 years, banding cytogenetics, fluorescence in situ hybridization, chromosome microarray analysis, and whole genome sequencing have been used to diagnose cases with a RC. Ring syndrome of sever growth retardation and variable intellectual disability has been considered a common clinical feature for all RCs. Clinical heterogeneity of chromosome-specific deletion and duplication syndromes, gene-related organ and tissue defects, cancer predisposition to different types of tumors, and reproduction failure has been reported in the literature. However, the cases of RCs reported in the literature account for less than 1% of its real occurrence. Current diagnostic practice lacks laboratory standards for analyzing cellular behavior and genomic imbalances of RCs to evaluate its compound effects on patients. The under-representation of clinical cases and the lack of comprehensive diagnostic analysis make challenging to establish accurate clinico-cytogenomic correlations. Given recent advances in genomic technology and organized efforts from peer experts, standardized cytogenomic diagnosis and evidence-based clinical management could be envisioned for all patients with RCs. Furthermore, supernumerary small ring chromosomes and the patient?s perspective are addressed?the latter by including family stories of RC-carrier relatives. Acquired RCs in various cancers are also discussed, as well as the potential role of RCs in research applications like iPSC cellular modeling and genomic editing. This book is a valuable reference for clinical geneticists, personnel in cytogenetics and molecular genetics laboratories, genetic counselors, and researchers in related fields. 606 $aMedical genetics 606 $aMolecular genetics 606 $aCancer 606 $aMedical Genetics 606 $aMolecular Genetics 606 $aClinical Genetics 606 $aCancer Biology 615 0$aMedical genetics. 615 0$aMolecular genetics. 615 0$aCancer. 615 14$aMedical Genetics. 615 24$aMolecular Genetics. 615 24$aClinical Genetics. 615 24$aCancer Biology. 676 $a616.042 700 $aLi$b Peining$01733724 701 $aLiehr$b Thomas$01060216 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910845083903321 996 $aHuman Ring Chromosomes$94149609 997 $aUNINA
