Amniоtic fluid wаs received in the cytоgenetics lаbоrаtory with a request for chromosomal analysis. The patient was a 40-year-old female with a history of miscarriages. Half of the 10-mL specimen was centrifuged, and the cell pellet was resuspended in methanol fixative. The remaining cells were resuspended in growth medium with phytohemagglutinin (PHA). Two days later, colcemid was added to the cell culture. The cells were harvested in hypotonic saline, fixed in methanol, and spread on slides for examination. The results of the karyotype analysis indicated that all cells examined contained 47,XXY. 1. What is the predicted medical condition of the baby? 2. Based on the karyotype is the baby a male or female? 3. If the fixed cells are tested by FISH with green X-chromosome-specific and orange Y chromosome-specific probes, what is the pattern observed in this case? (Hint: How many signals based on fluorescence?)
