Allelotyping of human prostatic adenocarcinoma. 总被引:14,自引:0,他引:14
Allelotyping (using at least one probe detecting a restriction fragment length polymorphism on each chromosomal arm, with the exception of the short arms of the acrocentric chromosomes), showed loss of genetic information in 11 of 18 prostate adenocarcinoma specimens analyzed (61%). Frequent allelic deletions were detected on the long arm of chromosome 16 (6 of 10 informative cases, 60%), on the short arm of chromosome 8 (3 of 6 informative cases, 50%), and on the short and/or the long arms of chromosome 10 (6 of 11 informative cases (10p), 55% and 4 of 13 informative cases (10q), 30%, respectively). No losses of alleles were detected in any case unless at least one of the chromosomes 8, 10, or 16 also showed deletions. The long arm of chromosome 18 also showed a high frequency of allelic deletions (3 of 7 informative cases, 43%). Allelic deletions on the following chromosomes were detected at lower frequencies: chromosomes 2, 3, 7, 12, 13, 17, 22, and XY. Tumors with allelic deletions on more than one chromosome had a higher histological malignancy grade. Tumors from patients with advanced disease all showed allelic deletions. 相似文献

Cytogenetic study of 11 cases of colorectal carcinoma was performed after R-banding. In all instances, there was a rearrangement involving chromosome 17 in its juxtacentromeric region, leading to the loss of its short arm. There was also a relative lack of chromosome 18, unrelated to a rearrangement of this chromosome in all but one case. Other anomalies, involving chromosomes 1 and 8 among others, were frequently but not systematically observed. The consistent lack of chromosome 18 and of the short arm of chromosome 17, leading to a complete or partial monosomy of these chromosomes in near diploid cells suggests that the passage to the hemizygous status of recessive genes carried by these chromosomes may play an important role in the development of colorectal carcinoma. 相似文献

Summary Two cases of partial trisomy 8q are presented. Common clinical features included severe mental and physical retardation, a prominent and short forehead, widely set mongoloid eyes, broad, flat nose with short septum, short upper lip, misshapen ears, a funnel chest, hypertrichosis of the back, coxa valga, and short fingers with brachymesophalangy and clinodactyly of the little fingers. Moreover, Case 1 had a frontal meningocele and bilateral talipes equinovarus, and Case 2 had a ventricular septal defect. The chromosome aberration in the two girls arose from a maternal balanced translocation, t(8;18) (q2309;p113). Since the major clinical features of mosaic trisomy 8 are absent in the two girls and in other cases of partial trisomy, both for the distal segment of the lang arm and for the short arm of chromosome 8, it is concluded that trisomy of the proximal part of the long arm of chromosome 8 causes most of the clinical findings of trisomy 8 mosaicism syndrome. 相似文献

Summary The data of the chromosome abnormalities in 15 colorectal tumors are presented. Rearrangements of the short arm of chromosome 17, leading to deletions of this arm or its part were noted in 12 tumors; in 2 other cases, one of the homologs of pair 17 was lost. The losses of at least one homolog of other chromosomal pairs were also found: chromosome 18, in 12 out of 13 cases with fully identified numerical abnormalities; chromosome 5, in 6 tumors; chromosome 21, in 5 cases; chromosomes 4, 15, and 22, in 4 cases each. Additional homologs of pair 20 were observed in 6 tumors, extra 8q was found in 5 tumors, and extra 13q in 6 cases. Rearrangements of the short arm of chromosome 1 and the long arm of chromosome 11 characterized 6 tumors each. The data recorded in our series differ from the data of other authors in two respects: the high incidence of the loss of sex chromosomes and the rearrangements of the long arm of chromosome 9. X chromosomes were missing in 4 out of 7 tumors in females, and Y chromosomes were absent in 5 out of 8 tumors in males. The long arm of chromosome 9 was rearranged in 8 cases, in 5 of them the breakpoint being at 9q22. Cytological manifestations of gene amplification (double minutes or multiple microchromosomes) were noted in 6 tumors. 相似文献

Trisomy 9p is one of the most frequent autosomal anomalies compatible with long survival rate. The spectrum of clinical severity in trisomy 9 roughly correlates with the extent of trisomic chromosome material. Trisomy 9p is a clinically well delineated syndrome and of all stigmata craniofacial dysmorphism is most specific. In this study we report five cases with de novo trisomy 9p. The study aimed at the identification of the genotype/phenotype correlations in patients with different breakpoints. GTG banding, DAPI stain, whole chromosome paint, centromere, telomere and 9p21 specific locus probes demonstrated that partial trisomy 9p in case 1 was due to isochromosome 9p with translocation of the long arm of re-arranged chromosome 9 onto the short arm of chromosome 13, cases 2 and 3 had intrachromosomal duplication of the short arm of chromosome 9 [dup(9)(p21p24)], case 4 had "classical" 9p trisomy and case 5 had duplication of whole short arm and part of the long arm of chromosome 9 (partial 9 trisomy). Although cases 1 to 4 had trisomy involving 9p, cases 1 and 2 exhibited the classical clinical manifestations of 9p trisomy, while cases 3 and 4 had additional features overlapping with Coffin-Siris syndrome. The present study strengthens the association of Coffin-Siris syndrome and 9p, the significance of such observations may point to possible gene location of Coffin-Siris syndrome on 9p. Case 5 had additional manifestations more than those typical of trisomy 9p which could be due to duplication of 9q21 region. Wide gap between 1st and 2nd toes, observed in the studied cases, can be added to the phenotype of this trisomy. Three of our cases had brain malformations, case 3 had dilated ventricles with hypogenesis of corpus callosum, case 4 had agenesis of corpus callosum, and case 5 had Dandy-Walker malformation. We also suggest that dosage effects of genes located in 9pter-q22 contribute to the etiology of Dandy-Walker syndrome. We recommend MRI studies as a routine in all cases with trisomy 9p. 相似文献

Summary Three cases of Y chromosomal aberrations were studied using a panel of Y-specific DNA sequences from both Yp and euchromatic Yq. One case was a phenotypic male fetus with a Y-derived marker chromosome. The short arm of this chromosome was intact, but most of its long arm was missing. The second case had a 46,Xyq- karyotype with portions of euchromatic Yq, including the spermatogenesis region, missing. The third case was a phenotypic female with a 46,XXp+ karyotype. The extra material on the Xp+ chromosome was derived from the heterochromatic, and part of the euchromatic, portion of Yq. Application of X-specific DNA sequences demonstrated that the distal portion of the short arm of the translocation X chromosome was deleted (Xpter—p22.3). The three examples demonstrate the importance of diagnostic DNA analysis in cases of marker chromosomes, and X and Y chromosomal aberrations. In addition, the findings in the patients facilitate further deletion mapping of euchromatic Yq. 相似文献

Summary On routine chromosome analysis a moderately retarded 18-year old man was found to have an unusual short arm on one chromosome 14. With GTL-banding this chromosome showed an enlarged short arm with no evident secondary constriction. Negative CBG-banding of the short arm suggested the possibility of a translocation involving euchromatin. Interpretation of the abnormality as an unbalanced translocation relied on chromosome analysis using GTL-, CBG-, and Ag-NOR-banding of the proband's phenotypically normal mother, who was found to be carrying a balanced translocation involving chromosomes 8 and 14. In situ hybridization of sequences known to map to the short arm of chromosome 14 confirmed the interpretation and established that the breakpoint was within p11. The patient, whose karyotype is 46,XY,-14,+der(14)t(8;14)(q24.1;p11), is trisomic for the terminal end of the long arm of chromosome 8. The patient's clinical features are described and compared with those reported in patients trisomie for this region. This study demonstrates the importance of using a number of different banding techniques in conjunction with in situ hybridization for the investigation of morphologically unusual acrocentric short arm variants seen at routine diagnosis. 相似文献

A case of the Cat-eye syndrome (CES) with 47,YX, + mar is presented. Silver staining method revealed the marker chromosome to be bisatellited. This abnormal chromosome is interpreted as the product of a Robertsonian translocation between the short arm and satellites of chromosome 22 and short arm of another D-group chromosome, probably No. 13. 相似文献

A new case of the trisomy 3p syndrome is described. The propositus showed mental and growth retardation and many of the congenital anomalies typical of this syndrome. Chromosome analysis in the propositus revealed an enlarged short arm of chromosome 4. In the mother a similar chromosome 4 was found and, in addition, an abnormal chromosome 3 with a deleted short arm. The karyotype of the mother was interpreted as resulting from a balanced insertional translocation. GTG bands p21 and p22 of chromosome 3 were inserted into the short arm of chromosome 4. 相似文献

Summary The significance of short and long arm anomalies of chromosome 1 was investigated in 55 colorectal tumors comprising 41 carcinomas and 14 adenomas. The tumors were at various stages of transformation from adenoma to carcinoma. Our investigation was prompted by the observation of a p32-pter deletion on the short arm of chromosome 1 in a case of benign tubulovillous adenoma with mild dysplasia, as well as by frequent reports that chromosome 1 is involved in many neoplastic processes. Long arm anomalies were found in seven of the 41 carcinomas, six of which were in stage B2, and short arm anomalies in ten carcinomas at various stages. Three of the adenomas exhibited chromosome 1 anomalies, which in one case comprised a 1p32-pter deletion only. Overall, short arm anomalies especially concerned the p32–36 region. These results suggest that the cytogenetic anomalies respectively located on the short and long arms of chromosome 1 should be considered separately. Damage to the long arm might constitute a late non-specific event, whereas damage to the p32-pter region of the short arm might be involved in triggering colorectal tumor development. 相似文献

Reciprocal translocation between Y chromosome long arm euchromatin and the short arm of chromosome 1
A case with an apparently balanced reciprocal translocation between the long arm of the Y chromosome and the short arm of chromosome 1 t(Y;1)(q11.2;p34.3) is described. The translocation was found in a phenotypically normal male ascertained by infertility and presenting for intra-cytoplasmatic sperm injection treatment. Histological examination of testicular biopsies revealed spermatogenic failure. Chromosome painting with probes for chromosome 1 and for the euchromatic part of the Y chromsome confirmed the translocation of euchromatic Y chromosomal material onto the short arm of chromosome 1 and of a substantial part of the short arm of chromosome 1 onto the Y chromosome. Among the Y/autosome translocations, the rearrangements involving long arm euchromatin of the Y chromosome are relatively rare and mostly associated with infertility. Microdeletion screening at the azoospermia locus revealed no deletions, suggesting another mechanism causing infertility in this translocation carrier. 相似文献

We have analyzed three de novo chromosome 16 rearrangements—two with a 16p+ chromosome and one a 16q+—none of which could be fully characterized by conventional cytogenetics. In each case, flow karyotypes have been produced, and the aberrant chromosome has been isolated by flow sorting. The origin of the additional material has been ascertained by amplifying and labeling the DNA of the abnormal chromosome by degenerate-oligonucleotide-primer–PCR and hybridizing it in situ to normal metaphase spreads (reverse chromosome painting). Both 16p+ chromosomes contain more than 30 Mb of DNA from the short arm of chromosome 9 (9p21.2-pter), while the 16q+ contains approximately 9 Mb of DNA from 2q37. The breakpoints on chromosome 16 have been localized in each case; the two breakpoints on the short arm are at different points within the terminal band, 16p13.3. The breakpoint on the long arm of chromosome 16 is very close to (within 230 kb of) the 16q telomere. Determination of the regions of monosomy and trisomy allowed the observed phenotypes to be compared with other reported cases involving aneuploidy for these regions. 相似文献

Summary The case of a 5-month-old male infant with 18p- mosaic, who has intractable seizures and severe ophthalmological abnormalities in addition to many clinical manifestations usually described in the 18p- syndrome, is reported. The proportions of abnormal cells are 7–8% in blood and 55% in skin. About 35% of the short arm of chromosome 18 is deleted. To our knowledge the present report is the fifth one of 18p- mosaic. The main interest of this case resides in the fact that it shows a serious clinical picture despite the low proportion of abnormal cells in blood and the small degree of deletion of the short arm of chromosome 18. 相似文献

Y;autosome translocations and mosaicism in the aetiology of 45,X maleness: assignment of fertility factor to distal Yq11 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8

Summary Three 45,X males have been studied with Y-DNA probes by Southern blotting and in situ hybridization. Southern blotting studies with a panel of mapped Y-DNA probes showed that in all three individuals contiguous portions of the Y chromosome including all of the short arm, the centromere, and part of the euchromatic portion of the long arm were present. The breakpoint was different in each case. The individual with the largest portion (intervals 1–6) is a fertile male belonging to a family in which the translocation is inherited in four generations. The second adult patient, who has intervals 1–5, is an azoospermic, sterile male. These phenotypic findings suggest the existence of a gene involved in spermatogenesis in interval 6 in distal Yq11. The third case, a boy with penoscrotal hypospadias, has intervals 1–4B. In situ hybridization with the pseudoautosomal probe pDP230 and the Y chromosome specific probe pDP105 showed that Y-derived DNA was translocated onto the short arm of a chromosome 15, 14, and 14, respectively. One of the patients was a mosaic for the 14p+ translocation chromosome. Our data and those reported by others suggest the following conclusions based on molecular studies in eight 45,X males: The predominant aetiological factor is Y;autosome translocation observed in seven of the eight cases. As the remaining case was a low-grade mosaic involving a normal Y chromosome, the maleness in all cases was due to the effect of the testis determing factor, TDF. There is preferential involvement of the short arm of an acrocentric chromosome (five out of seven translocations) but other autosomal regions can also be involved. The reason why one of the derivative translocation chromosomes becomes lost may be that it has no centromere. 相似文献

Frequent occurrence of translocations of the short arm of chromosome 15 to other D-group chromosomes 总被引:4,自引:4,他引:0
Summary The presence of DA/DAPI (distamycin A/ 4,6-diamino-2-phenyl-indole) heteromorphism on the short arm of human acrocentric chromosomes was investigated in 127 individuals. In 7 cases, a DA/DAPI signal was observed on an acrocentric chromosome other than 15. Subsequently, in situ hybridization (ISH) with a pericentromeric probe specific for chromosome 15 was carried out. In all 7 cases, three ISH signals were present in every metaphase, i.e., on both chromosomes 15 and on the third DA/DAPI-fluorescence-positive acrocentric chromosome (a chromosome 13 or 14), indicating that a chromosome 15 short arm was also present on these chromosomes. Therefore, we conclude that translocations of short arm sequences from chromosome 15 onto other D-group chromosomes occur frequently. Moreover, it appears that DA/DAPI staining remains specific for the short arm of chromosome 15, despite a number of recent papers suggesting otherwise. 相似文献

Observations were made of the C-banding patterns in several cells from 182 Japanese quail embryos to detect presence of stable variants. Each of the eight largest autosomes contains a C-band at the centromeric region. The short arm of autosome 8 is C-band positive, as is the entire W chromosome. The Z chromosome consistently contains an interstitial C-band in the long arm and a less prominent one in the short arm. Distinct variants of chromosome 4 and the Z chromosome were observed. In the Z chromosome a C-band at the terminal region of the short arm was markedly elongated in some embryos. Likewise, the short arm of chromosome 4 was much more prominent in one or both of the homologues in some embryos. Most of the microchromosomes contain a prominent C-band. The heteromorphisms are useful chromosome markers to detect the origins of heteroploidy in early embryos. 相似文献

Two cases of amplified repetitive elements accidentally identified in cancer samples are reported. In both cases, repeated DNA that is normally not visible by traditional chromosome banding had increased in amount to become cytogenetically visible. In one case, an addition to the short arm of chromosome 1 was originally diagnosed. However, upon molecular analysis the diagnosis could be corrected to an amplification of the D1Z2 repeat. In the second case, a strongly DAPI-positive band was visible at the top of the short arm of chromosome 22, and the original diagnosis was add(22). Staining for telomeric repeats revealed their presence inside the DAPI-positive element, thus confirming that the element in question was truly added to the end of the chromosome. Curiously, no telomeric repeats could be detected distal to the DAPI-positive element. The identity of the DAPI-positive element could not be established, as it was not stained by any of the specific probes applied, nor in a scanning hybridization with labeled Cot-1 DNA. It thus seems to represent an expansion from some lowly repetitive AT-rich DNA translocated to the tip of chromosome 22. 相似文献

We performed an investigation of two unrelated cases with extremal variants of chromosome 21 without visible materials of the short arms (Christchurch or Ch1 chromosome). In the first case chromosome 21p- was initially detected during routine cytogenetic amniocentesis. Chromosomal variant was inherited from phenotypically normal father to phenotypically normal fetus (phenotypically normal boy after the birth). The second case of chromosome 21p- was detected in 7 years old boy, referred to cytogenetic analysis due to mental retardation and mild congenital malformation, including prenatal hypoplasia, microcephaly, low-set dysplastic ears, short nose, micrognatia, short neck. Molecular characterization of 21p-variant chromosomes was performed by the use of FISH with DNA probes specific to the short arm and centromeric region of chromosome 21 (telomeric, beta-satellite, ribosomal, classical satellite and alphoid DNA probes). Chromosomes 21p-hybridized positively only with telomeric DNA at both chromosomal ends and alphoid DNA probes at centromeric region of the first patient. In second case (de novo deletion of 21p), the Ch1 was associated with clinical phenotype and loss of telomeric and subtelomeric DNA in the p-arm of chromosome 21. Therefore, the complete absent of the short arm of chromosome 21 may be considered as abnormal. We propose that de novo deletion 21p- could have negative consequences due to absence of large portion of chromosomal DNA from the p-arm (telomeric, satellite or ribosomal DNAs) and following imbalance in organization and functioning of genome. 相似文献

Summary A malformed female infant was found to have a 46,XX complement with a chromosome 8 shorter than normal with a secondary constriction and satellites on the short arm. Chromosome studies on the clinically normal father showed a balanced translocation between chromosome 8 and 13, i.e., 46,XY,t(8;13) (p21 p12). The proposita, carrier of the unbalanced form of the translocation, resulted partially monosomic for short arm of chromosome 8 (8p-) and partially trisomic for short arm of chromosome 13.The levels of DNA complementary to rRNA (normal in the father who had 10 NOR and increased in the proposita who had 11 NOR) confirmed our interpretation of the rearrangement. 相似文献

Summary The marked binding of antibodies specific for 5-methylcytidine to the short arm of chromosome 15 distinguishes this chromosome from the other human acrocentrics. This method has been used to study over 60 individuals including 12 who did not have Down's syndrome, but who did have an extra G-group sized acrocentric chromosome. In six cases the extra chromosome did not show intensive binding of anti-5-methylcytidine. In the other six cases, the extra chromosome contained a 5-methylcytidine rich band at each end indicating that both ends were derived from chromosome 15 and contained centromeric heterochromatin normally present on the short arm of chromosome 15. The duplication of short arm material in the abnormal chromosomes was confirmed in all cases by quinacrine staining, nucleolar organizer (Ag-AS) staining or C-banding. In three cases, the abnormal chromosome appeared to arise from two different chromosomes 15. Several possible mechanisms for the production of the abnormal chromosome are discussed. The individuals with this abnormal chromosome all showed some degree of mental retardation, but few common physical findings. 相似文献
