Abstract

Hyperglycemia caused by mutations in the glucokinase gene, GCK, is the most common form of monogenic diabetes. Prenatal diagnosis is important, as it impacts on treatment. This study reports a monogenic non-invasive prenatal diagnostic (NIPD-M) test on cell-free DNA in maternal plasma using the relative haplotype dosage. In three pregnancies of two families with known maternal GCK mutations, the fetal genotype was determined unambiguously already at 12 weeks of gestation. In summary, proof is provided of the feasibility for NIPD-M in GCK diabetes.
