Leukemias with abnormalities in chromosome 11q23 occur frequently after exposure to topoisomerase II-reactive drugs. We investigated the characteristics and outcome of patients with de novo or secondary acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) or myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) with abnormalities in chromosome 11q. Sixty-one patients had 11q abnormalities. Alterations involved 11q23 in 38 patients and other 11q abnormalities in 23. Sixteen patients had secondary disease, 12 involving 11q23, and four with other 11q abnormalities; 26 patients with de novo disease had 11q23 abnormalities and 19 other 11q abnormalities. The most common 11q23 abnormality was t(9;11), significantly more common in secondary (9/12) than in de novo (6/26) leukemias (p = 0.003). There were no significant differences in clinical characteristics between de novo and secondary groups involving 11q23. Five of 12 patients (42%) with secondary and 20/26 (77%) with de novo disease achieved complete remission (p = 0.05). Median survival was 6 weeks in the secondary group and 71 weeks in the de novo group (p = 0.001). There were no long-term survivors in either group. Results are similar when other 11q abnormalities are included. Adults with AML or MDS with 11q abnormalities secondary to prior chemotherapy have a worse prognosis than patients presenting de novo. However, 11q abnormalities define a population with a poor prognosis even when presenting de novo. 相似文献

Cytogenetic analysis of a bone marrow aspirate from a patient with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) revealed the presence of a complex karyotype containing the translocation, t(14;18)(q32;q21). Further investigations using fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) allowed the characterization of an additional translocation, t(8;9)(q24;p1?). The association of t(14;18)(q32;q21) and t(8;9)(q24;p13) has recently been described in two patients with de novo ALL (Nacheva et al. Blood 1993;82:231-240) and this report supports these findings. 相似文献

We present the perinatal findings of a fetus with a de novo unbalanced chromosome translocation that resulted in monosomy for proximal 14q and monosomy for distal 4p. Prenatal sonographic examination at 27 weeks of gestation showed intrauterine growth retardation, microcephaly, cardiomegaly with arrhythmia, and asymmetry of the upper limbs. Genetic amniocentesis showed an abnormal karyotype of 45,XX,der(4)t(4;14)(p16.3;q12),-14. Linkage analysis of the family confirmed the maternal origin of the deletions. Molecular refinement of the deletion breakpoints indicated that the breakpoints at 4p16.3 and 14q12 were located between loci D4S403 (present) and D4S394 (absent), and between loci D14S252 (present) and D14S64 (absent), respectively. Necropsy showed dysmorphic features compatible with Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, partial hemihypoplasia, and a normal brain without evidence of holoprosencephaly. Our case adds to the list of clinical phenotypes associated with the proximal regions of 14q. 相似文献

Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) using chromosome-specific DNA libraries as painting probes, locus-specific unique sequence (cosmid) probes, and Y-specific repetitive sequences was applied in the analysis of eighteen cases of chromosomal rearrangements of undetermined nature. FISH clarified the origin of the extra or translocated chromosome segments in seventeen patients, one with 2q+, two with 4q+, one each with 6p+, 7p+, 9q+, 10p+, 11q+ and 12p+, two with 13q+, and one each with 15q+, 17p+, 18p+, 20p+, 21p+ and Yq+, as well as the nature of a de novo supernumerary chromosome marker in a previously reported case. By G-banding and molecular cytogenetic studies of the family members, six cases were determined to have unbalanced translocations inherited from the carrier parent. The extra translocated genetic material may cause specific trisomic syndromes, including partial 6p21.3-p23, 9q32-q34.3, 13q32-q34, 15q24-q26, and 17p11.2-p13 trisomies in those patients. A translocated 21q segment on 12p was shown by a painting probe in a patient with Down features. A patient with cat cry syndrome resulting from a loss of the terminal segment of the short arm of chromosome 5 was confirmed by a cosmid probe showing de novo reciprocal translocation between chromosomes 5 and 18:t(5;18) (p13.3;p11.31). With FISH, the extra material on the rearranged chromosome could also be identified as duplicated or translocated. The FISH technique thus provides a method for the analysis of extra structurally abnormal chromosomes (especially in de novo cases), recognizable syndromes (contiguous gene syndromes) caused by translocated deletion from parental balanced chromosome rearrangements, and supernumerary marker chromosomes. FISH subsequent to G-banding is also of great help in the confirmation of preliminary abnormal G-banded karyotypes after a modified destaining procedure. In conclusion, the combination of G-banding and FISH is very useful in the accurate diagnosis of chromosomal rearrangements. 相似文献

Chromosome band 11q23 is frequently involved in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) de novo, as well as in myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) and lymphoma. Five percent to 15% of patients treated with chemotherapy for a primary neoplasm develop therapy-related AML (t-AML) that may show rearrangements, usually translocations involving band 11q23 or, less often, 21q22. These leukemias develop after a relatively short latent period and often follow the use of drugs that inhibit the activity of DNA-topoisomerase II (topo II). We previously identified a gene, MLL (myeloid-lymphoid leukemia or mixed-lineage leukemia), at 11q23 that is involved in the de novo leukemias. We have studied 17 patients with t-MDS/t-AML, 12 of whom had cytogenetically detectable 11q23 rearrangements. Ten of the 12 t-AML patients had received topo II inhibitors and 9 of these, all with balanced translocations of 11q23, had MLL rearrangements on Southern blot analysis. None of the patients who had not received topo II inhibitors showed an MLL rearrangement. Of the 5 patients lacking 11q23 rearrangements, some of whom had monoblastic features, none had an MLL rearrangement, although 4 had received topo II inhibitors. Our study indicates that the MLL gene rearrangements are similar both in AML that develops de novo and in t-AML. The association of exposure to topo II-reactive chemotherapy with 11q23 rearrangements involving the MLL gene in t-AML suggests that topo II may play a role in the aberrant recombination events that occur in this region both in AML de novo and in t-AML. 相似文献

Physical mapping across a duplication can be a tour de force if the region is larger than the size of a bacterial clone. This was the case of the 170- to 275-kb duplication present on the long arm of chromosome 21 in normal human at 21q11.1 (proximal region) and at 21q22.1 (distal region), which we described previously. We have constructed sequence-ready contigs of the two copies of the duplication of which all the clones are genuine representatives of one copy or the other. This required the identification of four duplicon polymorphisms that are copy-specific and nonallelic variations in the sequence of the STSs. Thirteen STSs were mapped inside the duplicated region and 5 outside but close to the boundaries. Among these STSs 10 were end clones from YACs, PACs, or cosmids, and the average interval between two markers in the duplicated region was 16 kb. Eight PACs and cosmids showing minimal overlaps were selected in both copies of the duplication. Comparative sequence analysis along the duplication showed three single-basepair changes between the two copies over 659 bp sequenced (4 STSs), suggesting that the duplication is recent (less than 4 mya). Two CpG islands were located in the duplication, but no genes were identified after a 36-kb cosmid from the proximal copy of the duplication was sequenced. The homology of this chromosome 21 duplicated region with the pericentromeric regions of chromosomes 13, 2, and 18 suggests that the mechanism involved is probably similar to pericentromeric-directed mechanisms described in interchromosomal duplications. 相似文献

The majority of patients with 18q- syndrome appear cytogenetically to have a terminal deletion of the long arm of chromosome 18. These 18q- patients are diagnosed by use of standard cytogenetic banding techniques, which have resolution insufficient for precise genotyping. In our effort to obtain a thorough genotype, we have analyzed the DNA from 35 patients who originally were diagnosed as having de novo terminal deletions of chromosome 18. Molecular analysis was performed with polymorphic markers throughout the 18q- region. Cytogenetic FISH was performed with two human 18q telomeric probes, a chromosome 18-specific alpha-satellite probe, and whole chromosome 18-specific paint. Of 35 patients previously reported to have terminal deletions of 18q, we found that 5 (14%) have more-complex cryptic rearrangements and that 3 (9%) retain the most distal portion of 18q, consistent with an interstitial rather than a terminal deletion. These findings indicate that a standard karyotype can lead to insufficient characterization in 18q- syndrome. This has important ramifications for phenotype mapping of this syndrome, as well as for proper prognosis. 相似文献

Small adenocarcinomas of the colorectum showing no evidence of origin from an adenoma have been called de novo carcinomas, a name that implies an origin via a different molecular genetic mechanism than the usual colorectal carcinoma which develops from an adenoma. Using microsatellite analysis, 35 early (pT1) de novo and 36 pT1 ex-adenoma carcinomas were compared using 8 microsatellite loci at 6 different chromosomal loci (1p, 2p, 8p, 5q, 17p, and 18q) known or hypothesized to be important for colorectal carcinogenesis. The rate of loss of heterozygosity (LOH) at the 17p locus (near the p53 gene) was significantly higher in the de novo than in the ex-adenoma group (73 vs. 37%, P = 0.004). The rates of LOH at the other loci (including the APC and DCC genes) and the rate of MSI were not significantly different in the two groups. These results indicate that de novo carcinomas of the colorectum develop via a similar carcinogenetic pathway as conventional ex-adenoma carcinomas; however, their higher rate of LOH at 17p is evidence for a biologically more advanced lesion with more frequent p53 mutations, consistent with clinicopathological data indicating that de novo carcinomas are more aggressive than ex-adenoma carcinomas. 相似文献

Loss of a whole chromosome 7 or a deletion of the long arm, del(7q), are recurring abnormalities in malignant myeloid diseases. To determine the location of genes on 7q that are likely to play a role in leukemogenesis, we examined the deleted chromosome 7 homologs in a series of 81 patients with therapy-related or de novo myelodysplastic syndrome or acute myeloid leukemia. Our analysis showed that the deletions were interstitial and that there were two distinct deleted segments of 7q. The majority of patients (65 of 81 [80%]) had proximal breakpoints in bands q11-22 and distal breakpoints in q31-36; the smallest overlapping deleted segment was within q22. The remaining 16 patients had deletions involving the distal q arm with a commonly deleted segment of q32-33. To define the proximal deleted segment at 7q22 at a molecular level, we used fluorescence in situ hybridization with a panel of mapped yeast artificial chromosome (YAC) clones from 7q to examine 15 patients with deletion breakpoints in 7q22. We determined that the smallest overlapping deleted segment is contained in a well-defined YAC contig that spans 2 to 3 Mb. These studies delineate the region of 7q that must be searched to isolate a putative myeloid leukemia suppressor gene, and provide the necessary cloned DNA for more detailed physical mapping and gene isolation. 相似文献

The pre- and postnatal findings of a fetus with a de novo del(13)(pter-->q21:) and an occipital encephalocoele are described. Maternal serum alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) screening at 19 weeks' gestation demonstrated a high level of 2.5 multiples of the median (MOM) and ultrasonography at 27 weeks' gestation showed severe intrauterine growth retardation, cardiomegaly, an occipital encephalocoele, and a calvarial defect. Genetic amniocentesis revealed a karyotype of 46,XX,del(13)(pter-->q21:). The proband postnatally displayed additional abnormalities such as microphthalmia, hypertelorism, large low-set ears, and micrognathia. We discuss the association of central nervous system (CNS) malformations with 13q deletions and emphasize that pregnancies with neural tube defects warrant cytogenetic analysis, especially when additional fetal abnormalities and neonatal dysmorphism are observed. 相似文献

Bone marrow specimens obtained from 54 patients with de novo AML and 7 patients with AML evolving from MDS were retrospectively examined for the presence of micromegakaryocytes defined as cells of less than 30 microns in diameter with one or two nuclei. At least 25 megakaryocytes were counted in each patient. Micromegakaryocytes were found in 17 cases (31%), M1:1/11, M2:5/18, M3:0/4, M4:5/12, M5:1/4, M6:4/4, M7:1/1. The median age of the patients was higher in de novo AML with micromegakaryocytes (57 years) than in de novo AML without micromegakaryocytes (41 years) (p = 0.014). Chromosomal analysis revealed that deletion of 5 or 5q-, 7 or 7q- was recognized only in the group of de novo AML with micromegakaryocytes and that t(15;17), t(8:21) and inv (16) were not recognized in this group. Micromegakaryocytes were identified in each bone marrow specimen obtained from 9 of 10 patients with de novo AML with trilineage myelodysplasia. The complete remission rate was significantly lower in de novo AML with micromegakaryocytes (33%) than in de novo AML without micromegakaryocytes (86%) (p = 0.001). The duration of survival of the patients with de novo AML with micromegakaryocytes was shown to be shorter than that of the patients with de novo AML without micromegakaryocytes (p = 0.017). Micromegakaryocytes were recognized in all of 7 patients with AML evolving from MDS. The presence of micromegakaryocytes in bone marrow of the patients with AML indicates a subset of AML with poor prognosis that may be closely associated with myelodysplastic syndrome. 相似文献

Common region of ALL-1 gene disrupted in epipodophyllotoxin-related secondary acute myeloid leukemia
CA Felix NJ Winick M Negrini WP Bowman CM Croce BJ Lange 《Canadian Metallurgical Quarterly》1993,53(13):2954-2956
Translocations at chromosomal band 11q23 characterize most de novo acute lymphoblastic leukemias (ALL) of infants, acute myeloid leukemias (AML) of infants and young children, and secondary AMLs following epipodophyllotoxin exposure. The chromosomal breakpoints at 11q23 have been cloned from isolated cases of de novo ALL and AML. Using an 859-base pair BamHI fragment of human ALL-1 complementary DNA that recognizes the genomic breakpoint region for de novo ALL and AML, we investigated two cases of secondary AML that followed etoposide-treated primary B-lineage ALL. In the first case, the translocation occurred between chromosomes 9 and 11 and the breakpoint at 11q23 localized to the same 9-kilobase region of the ALL-1 gene that is disrupted in most of the de novo leukemias. In the second case the translocation was between chromosomes 11 and 19. The breakpoint occurred outside of the ALL-1 breakpoint cluster region. 相似文献

We describe a female stillbirth with duplication of 3q21-->qter and deletion of 11q23-->qter resulting from an unbalanced segregation of a maternal t(3;11) reciprocal translocation. The proband had some of the clinical features consistent with those seen in patients with dup(3q) syndrome or distal del(11q) syndrome. Prenatal sonographic examination showed short limbs, intrauterine growth retardation, and an omphalocele containing the liver. 相似文献

Cytogenetic and clinical details are presented for 66 patients with myeloid malignancy and chromosome abnormalities of 3q21 and/or 3q26 (3qabns). Bone marrow and/or peripheral blood morphology was assessed for 52 cases. 3qabns in Philadelphia negative (Ph-ve) and positive (Ph+ve) cases were inv(3)(q21q26), (21 Ph-ve, 6 Ph+ve); t(3;3)(q21;q26) (nine Ph-ve, four Ph+ve); and t(3;21)(q26;q22) (four Ph-ve, six Ph+ve). Ph-ve cases also had t(1;3)(p36;q21) (three cases), and t(3;5)(q21;q31)/(q21;q35)/(q26;q21) (five cases aged < 40 years). Three cases, aged < 30 years, had t(3;12)(q26;p13) which defines a new 3qabn subgroup. Monosomy 7 and/or 5q- accompanied inv(3) or t(3;3) in 17/30 cases. All cases had a myeloid malignancy (predominantly AML M1, M4 or M7), frequent trilineage myelodysplasia, and markedly abnormal megakaryopoiesis with micromegakaryocytes (< 30 microns). Thrombocytosis occurred in two cases only. Most Ph+ve cases were in myeloid blast crisis and in Ph+ve cases alone, micro-megakaryocytes were uniquely small (10 microns) in 7/11 cases. There were equal numbers of males and females. Seven secondary leukaemias were found in Ph-ve cases with inv(3), t(3;3), t(3;21), t(1;3) or del(3)(q21). Three cases with t(3;21) (one Ph+ve) were de novo AML or had de novo aplastic anaemia. Survival was rarely greater than 12 months from detection of the 3qabn. 相似文献

The clinical, haematological and cytogenetic data for 20 patients with an acquired abnormality of 11q23 and 10p have been reviewed at this workshop. Patients predominantly presented with de novo AML M5a and the most common cytogenetic finding was an inversion of part of the long arm of chromosome 11 followed by a translocation between 11q and 10p. Band p12 represented the most common breakpoint on chromosome 10. The t(10;11) subgroup defined a subset of younger 11q23 patients, the majority of whom achieve a first complete remission despite the differing treatment regimens. 相似文献

Interstitial deletions are relatively rare chromosomal anomalies that usually arise de novo. The data describing the phenotype associated with interstitial deletions of 5q are very limited. We describe the first case of multiple fetal anomalies, diagnosed on prenatal sonographic examination, associated with a deletion at 5q31q33. Sonographic examination at 23 weeks' gestation demonstrated growth parameters consistent with 20 weeks' gestation; a 7-mm nuchal fold; a dilated loop of bowel adjacent to the stomach suggestive of duodenal atresia; clubbing of the left foot; a narrow aorta; suspected ventricular septal defect; and placental thickening. The patient delivered a severely growth-restricted fetus and enlarged placenta at 30 weeks' gestation. The infant died neonatally. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Transplant coronary artery disease is a combination of atherosclerosis transmitted from the donor and new lesions of allograft vasculopathy. We sought to determine the morphological characteristics of allograft vasculopathy and differentiate it from donor-transmitted atherosclerosis with serial intravascular ultrasound. METHODS AND RESULTS: Intravascular ultrasound examination was performed in 93 patients at 27.2+/-15.0 and 369. 7+/-23.9 days after transplantation. The maximally and minimally diseased sites were selected in each segment as defined by Coronary Artery Surgery Study classification. For each matched site, maximal plaque thickness was measured. Lesions (maximum plaque thickness >/=0.5 mm) present at baseline examination were defined as donor lesions. On follow-up, lesions that developed at previously normal sites were defined as de novo lesions. The distribution and severity of donor and de novo lesions were similar in proximal, mid, and distal segments. The de novo lesions were less focal (43% vs 74%) and more circumferential (69% vs 45%) compared with the donor lesions, but there was significant morphological heterogeneity. Similar numbers of patients with and those without donor lesions developed de novo lesions. Moreover, progression of donor lesions was not associated with the presence or absence of de novo lesions. CONCLUSIONS: Differentiation between early allograft vasculopathy from conventional atherosclerosis by distribution and morphology of lesions alone is difficult. Serial intravascular ultrasound imaging with early baseline examination is necessary to make this distinction. This distinction is important because the progression of donor lesions and the development of de novo lesions are independent of each other. 相似文献
