Small supernumerary marker chromosomes (sSMCs) are a morphologically heterogeneous group of additional structurally abnormal chromosomes that cannot be identified unambiguously by conventional banding techniques alone. Molecular cytogenetic methods enable detailed characterization of sSMCs; however, in many cases interpretation of their clinical significance is problematic. The aim of our study was to characterize precisely sSMCs identified in three patients with dysmorphic features, psychomotor retardation and multiple congenital anomalies. We also attempted to correlate the patients' genotypes with phenotypes by inclusion of data from the literature. The sSMCs were initially detected by G-banding analysis in peripheral blood lymphocytes in these patients and were subsequently characterized using multicolor fluorescence in situ hybridization (M-FISH), (sub)centromere-specific multicolor FISH (cenM-FISH, subcenM-FISH), and multicolor banding (MCB) techniques. Additionally, the sSMCs in two patients were also studied by hybridization to whole-genome bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) arrays (array-CGH) to map the breakpoints on a single BAC clone level. In all three patients, the chromosome origin, structure, and euchromatin content of the sSMCs were determined. In patient RS, only a neocentric r(2)(q35q36) was identified. It is a second neocentric sSMC(2) in the literature and the first marker chromosome derived from the terminal part of 2q. In the other two patients, two sSMCs were found, as M-FISH detected additional sSMCs that could not be characterized in G-banding analysis. In patient MK, each of four cell lines contained der(4)(:p11.1-->q12:) accompanied by a sSMC(18): r(18)(:p11.2-->q11.1::p11.2-->q11.1:), inv dup(18)(:p11.1-->q11.1::q11.1-->p11.1:), or der(18) (:p11.2-->q11.1::q11.1-->p11.1:). In patient NP, with clinical features of trisomy 8p, three sSMCs were characterized: r(8)(:p12-->q11.1::q11.1-->p21:) der(8) (:p11.22-->q11.1::q11.1-->p21::p21-->p11.22:) and der(21)(:p11.1-->q21.3:). The BAC array results confirmed the molecular cytogenetic results and refined the breakpoints to the single BAC clone resolution. However, the complex mosaic structure of the marker chromosomes derived from chromosomes 8 and 18 could only be identified by molecular cytogenetic methods. This study confirms the usefulness of multicolor FISH combined with whole-genome arrays for comprehensive analyses of marker chromosomes. 相似文献

To better define secondary aberrations that occur in addition to translocation t(11;14)(q13;q32) in mantle cell lymphomas (MCL) and in multiple myelomas (MM), seven t(11;14)-positive MCL cell lines and four t(11;14)-positive MM cell lines were analysed by fluorescence R-banding and spectral karyotyping (SKY). Compared with published data obtained by G-banding, most chromosome aberrations were redefined or further specified. Furthermore, several additional chromosome aberrations were identified. Thus, these cytogenetically well defined t(11;14)-positive MCL and MM cell lines may be useful tools for the identification and characterization of genes that might be involved in the pathogenesis of MCL and MM, respectively. Since MCL and MM were found to have different alterations of chromosome 1, these were investigated in more detail by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and multicolor banding (MCB) analyses. The most frequently altered and deletion-prone loci in MCL cell lines were regions 1p31 and 1p21. In contrast, breakpoints in MM cell lines most often involved the heterochromatic regions 1p12-->p11, and the subcentromeric regions 1q12 and 1q21. These data are in accordance with previously published data of primary lymphomas. Our findings may indicate that different pathways of clonal evolution are involved in these morphologically distinct lymphomas harboring an identical primary chromosome aberration, t(11;14). 相似文献

De novo structural chromosomal imbalances represent a major challenge in modern cytogenetic diagnostics. Based solely on conventional cytogenetic techniques it may be impossible to identify the chromosomal origin of additional chromosomal material. In these cases molecular cytogenetic investigations including multicolor-FISH (M-FISH), spectral karyotyping (SKY), multicolor banding (MCB) and cenM-FISH combined with appropriate single-locus FISH probes are highly suitable for the determination of the chromosomal origin and fine characterization of derivative chromosomes. Here we report on four patients with de novo chromosomal imbalances and distinct chromosomal phenotypes, three of them harboring pure partial trisomies: a mildly affected boy with pure partial trisomy 10q22.2-->q22.3 approximately 23.1 due to an interstitial duplication, a girl with pure trisomy 12p11.21-->pter and atypically moderate phenotype as the consequence of an X;autosome translocation, and a girl with multiple congenital abnormalities and severe developmental delay and a 46,XX,15p+ karyotype hiding a trisomy 17pter-->17q11.1. The fourth patient is a girl with minor phenotypic features and mental retardation with an inverted duplication 18q10-->p11.31 combined with a terminal deletion of 18p32. The clinical pictures are compared with previously described patients with focus on long term outcome. 相似文献

Although recurrent chromosomal alterations occur in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), relatively few affected tumor suppressors and oncogenes have been implicated. To improve genetic characterization of CLL, we performed high-resolution gene copy number analysis of 20 CLL patients using oligonucleotide array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH). The most recurrent losses were observed in 13q and 11q with variable sizes. The 11q losses varied between 7.44 Mb and 41.72 Mb in size and targeted ATM among others. Lost regions in 13q were generally smaller, spanning from 0.79 Mb to 29.33 Mb. The minimal common region (158 kb) in 13q14.3, which was also homozygously deleted in some cases, harbored five genes: TRIM13, KCNRG, DLEU2, DLEU1, and FAM10A4. Additionally, two micro-RNA genes (MIRN15A and MIRN16-1) locate to the region. New cryptic losses were detected in 1q23.2-->q23.3, 3p21.31, 16pter-->p13.3, 17p13.3-->p13.2, 17q25.3-->qter, and 22q11.22. In conclusion, our oligonucleotide aCGH study revealed novel aberrations and provided detailed genomic profiles of the altered regions. 相似文献

Neuroblastoma is associated with chromosomal aberrations of 1p and 1q in a majority of cases. Some nonrandom secondary changes were observed in this study. The role of these changes in the development and progression of neuroblastoma is examined. Chromosomal analysis was performed on 33 children with neuroblastoma using fine needle aspiration cultures. Metaphases were observed in 57.5% of cases. 86.6% showed the involvement of chromosome 1. Double minutes and unidentifiable markers was also observed. The most frequent secondary changes included add(4)(q35), add(11)(p13), add(14)(q32), add(16)(q12). add(17)(p13), add(19)(q12) and add(21)(q22). Minority of cases showed deletions and translocations. Ploidy pattern ranged from diploid to hypotetraploid. The present study substantiates aberration of chromosome 1 in the form of deletions, additions, duplications and iso-chromosome with some notable secondary abnormalities. 相似文献

To clarify the nature of chromosome sub-bands in more detail, the multicolor banding (MCB) probe-set for chromosome 5 was hybridized to normal metaphase spreads of GTG band levels at approximately 850, approximately 550, approximately 400 and approximately 300. It could be observed that as the chromosomes became shorter, more of the initial 39 MCB pseudo-colors disappeared, ending with 18 MCB pseudo-colored bands at the approximately 300-band level. The hierarchically organized splitting of bands into sub-bands was analyzed by comparing the disappearance or appearance of pseudo-color bands of the four different band levels. The regions to split first are telomere-near, centromere-near and in 5q23-->q31, followed by 5p15, 5p14, and all GTG dark bands in 5q apart from 5q12 and 5q32 and finalized by sub-band building in 5p15.2, 5q21.2-->q21.3, 5q23.1 and 5q34. The direction of band splitting towards the centromere or the telomere could be assigned to each band separately. Pseudo-colors assigned to GTG-light bands were resistant to band splitting. These observations are in concordance with the recently proposed concept of chromosome region-specific protein swelling. 相似文献

We describe a female patient with a small supernumerary marker chromosome (sSMC) present in mosaic and characterized in detail by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) using all 24 human whole chromosome painting probes, multicolor banding (MCB) and subcentromere specific multicolor FISH (subcenM-FISH). The sSMC was demonstrated to be derived from chromosome 5 and the karyotype of our patient was as follows: 47,XX,+mar.ish r(5)(::p13.2 approximately p13.3-->q11.2::) [60%]/46,XX [40%]. Partial trisomy for the proximal 5p and q chromosomal regions is a rare event. A critical region exists at 5p13 for the phenotype associated with duplication 5p. As far as we know, eight similar cases have been published up to now. We describe a new case which, to our knowledge, is the first characterized in such detail. The role of uniparental disomy (UPD) in cases of SMC is also discussed. 相似文献

The cell lines SW480 and SW620, derived from different stages of colon carcinoma in the same patient, have been used for a number of biochemical, immunological, and genetic studies on colon cancer. A comparative analysis of their karyotypes may identify chromosomal aberrations that might represent markers for metastatic spread. In the present study spectral karyotyping (SKY) was applied to these two colon cancer cell lines. Compared to previously reported G-banded karyotypes, 9 (SW480) and 7 (SW620) markers were identical, 3 (SW480) and 3 (SW620) markers could be redefined, 5 (SW480) and 8 (SW620) markers were newly identified, and 4 (SW480) and 5 (SW620) of the previous described markers could not be confirmed. The redefined aberrations include very complex rearrangements, such as a der(16) t(3;16;1;16;8;16; 1;16;10) and a der(18)t(18;15;17)(q12; p11p13;??) in SW620 and a der(19)t(19;8;19;5) in SW480, that have not been identified by conventional banding techniques. The resulting chromosome gains (5q11-->5q15, 7pter-->q22, 11, 13q14-->qter, 20pter-->p12, X) and losses (8pter-->p2, 18q12-->qter, Y) found in both SW480 and SW620 were in good agreement with those frequently described in colorectal tumors as primary changes in the stem cell. Abnormalities found exclusively in SW620 cells only (gains of 5pter-->5q11, 12q12-->q23, 15p13-->p11, and 16q21-->q24 and losses of 2pter-->2p24, 4q28-->qter, and 6q25-->qter) can be viewed as changes that occurred in a putative metastatic founder cell. 相似文献

Conventional cytogenetic analyses and comparative genomic hybridization have revealed a complex and even chaotic nature of chromosomal aberrations in pleural malignant mesothelioma (MM). We set out to describe the complex gene copy number changes and screen for novel genetic aberrations using a high-density oligonucleotide microarray platform for comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) of a series of 26 well-characterized MM tumor samples. The number of copy number changes varied from zero to 40 per sample. Gene copy number losses predominated over gains, and the most frequent region of loss was 9p21.3 (17/26 cases), the locus of CDKN2A and CDKN2B, both known to be commonly lost in MM. The most recurrent minimal regions of losses were 1p31.1--> p13.2, 3p22.1-->p14.2, 6q22.1, 9p21.3, 13cen-->q14.12, 14q22.1-->qter, and 22qcen-->q12.3. Previously unreported gains included 9p13.3, 7p22.3-->p22.2, 12q13.3, and 17q21.32-->qter. The results suggest that gene copy number losses are a major mechanism of MM carcinogenesis and reveal a recurrent pattern of copy number changes in MM. 相似文献

A complex low-repetitive human DNA probe (BAC RP11-35B4) together with two microdissection-derived region-specific probes of the multicolor banding (MCB) probe-set for chromosome 1 were used to re-analyze the evolution of human chromosome 1 in comparison to four ape species. BAC RP11-35B4 derives from 1q21 and contains 143 kb of non-repetitive DNA; however, it produces three specific FISH signals in 1q21, 1p12 and 1p36.1 of Homo sapiens (HSA). Human chromosome 1 was studied in comparison to its homologues in Hylobates lar (HLA), Pongo pygmaeus (PPY), Gorilla gorilla (GGO) and Pan troglodytes (PTR). A duplication of sequences homologous to human 1p36.1 could be detected in PPY plus an additional signal on PPY 16q. The region homologous to HSA 1p36.1 is also duplicated in HLA, and split onto chromosomes 7q and 9p; the region homologous to HSA 1q21/1p12 is present as one region on 5q. Additionally, the breakpoint of a small pericentric inversion in the evolution of human chromosome 1 compared to other great ape species could be refined. In summary, the results obtained here are in concordance with previous reports; however, there is evidence for a deletion of regions homologous to human 1p34.2-->p34.1 during evolution in the Pongidae branch after separation of PPY. 相似文献

The results of comprehensive clinical examination and molecular cytogenetic analysis of a patient carrying chromosome 3p+ in 69% of the peripheral blood lymphocytes are presented. Using microdissection of the metaphase chromosomes followed by DOP-PCR, a DNA library specific for the abnormal chromosome was obtained. By fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) of this DNA library with chromosomes from the patient and a healthy donor, the aberrant chromosome was identified as der(3)t(3;10)(3p25;q24.3). Since this chromosome was present in only a proportion of patient's cells studied and no chromosome aberrations were revealed in cells of his parents, the der(3)t(3;10) is suggested to appear de novo. The cells carrying der(3)t(3;10) are monosomic for a proportion of 3p25 and trisomic for 10q24.3-->qter. The developmental malformations revealed in the patient, such as the specific features of facial skeleton, mental retardation, microcephaly, and others are similar to those described previously in patients with partial 3p monosomy and 10q trisomy. 相似文献

Chromosome abnormalities detected in metaphases from multiple myeloma (MM) cells have a clear impact on prognosis and response to therapy. Thirteen out of 50 (26%) patients with plasma cell disorders and abnormal karyotypes (11 with MM and 2 with plasma cell leukemia (PCL)) were selected for inclusion in the present report based on the presence of karyotypes with new and/or infrequent structural aberrations. Thirty-three new rearrangements, including a novel recurrent aberration: psu dic(5;1)(q35;q10), were detected. Chromosome 1 was the most frequently involved. Gains of genetic material (57%) were noted more frequently than losses (43%). Three rearrangements that were observed only once in the literature appear to be recurrent from our data: del(16)(q13), del(5)(p13) and i(3)(q10), the latter being a single structural aberration in the karyotype. Clinical parameters from our series were compared with 2 control groups: 20 MM cases with recurrent aberrations in MM/PCL with a similar distribution of abnormalities associated with poor prognosis (group 1), and 40 with normal karyotypes and fluorescence in situ hybridization analysis (group 2). Significantly increased serum calcium levels (p = 0.022) in patients with new and/or infrequent chromosome changes with respect to both control groups, and a higher percentage of bone marrow plasma cell infiltration (p = 0.005), β(2) microglobulin, and lactate dehydrogenase levels (p < 0.0001) compared to group 2 were observed. Our results suggest that some of these novel rearrangements may be capable to deregulate genetic mechanisms related to the development and/or progression of the disease. The finding of new recurrent aberrations supports this hypothesis. 相似文献

The aim of the present study was to investigate chromosomal alterations in a large set of homogeneous tumors, 98 endometrioid adenocarcinomas. We also wanted to evaluate differences in chromosomal alterations in the different groups of tumors in relation to stage, survival and invasive or metastatic properties of the tumors. Comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) was used to detect chromosomal alterations in tissue samples from 98 endometrioid adenocarcinomas. All chromosomes were involved in DNA copy number variations at least once in the tumor material, but certain changes were recurrent and rather specific. Among the specific changes, it was possible to identify 39 chromosomal regions displaying frequent DNA copy number alterations. The most frequent alteration was detected at 1q25-->q42, in which gains were found in 30 cases (30%). Gains at 19pter-->p13.1 were detected in 26 tumors (26%) and at 19q13.1-->q13.3 in 19 tumors (19%). Increased copy numbers were also detected at 8q (8q21-->q22 and 8q22-->qter), at a relatively high rate, in 17 cases (17%). Furthermore, gains at 10q21-->q23 and 10p were found in 14 (14%) and 13 cases (13%), respectively. The most common losses were found in the three regions 4q22-->qter, 16q21-->qter and 18q21-->qter, all of which were detected in eight of the 98 tumors (8%). We also detected differences between the tumors from deceased patients and from survivors. Gain at 1q25-->q42 was more commonly detected in the tumors from patients who died of cancer. We noted that the regions most affected differed in the different surgical stages (I-IV). The results of the CGH analysis identify specific chromosomal regions affected by copy number changes, appropriate objects for further genetic studies. 相似文献

Thirteenfold increase of chromosomal aberrations non-randomly distributed in chagasic children treated with nifurtimox 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Chromosomal aberrations were analyzed from cultures of peripheral lymphocytes in 2 groups of chagasic children, before and after treatment with nifurtimox. The mean incidence of chromosomal aberrations increased from control values of 1.75 +/- 1.39 (8 patients) to 23.55 +/- 9.55 (6 patients) at a significance of P less than 0.0001. G-banding analysis of chromosomal aberration sites revealed that treated patients present coincidence in the chromosome regions affected: 1p11, 1q11-12, 9q11-13, 17q11-21, 2p21, 2q23, 2q31, 2q33, 6p21, 6p21, 7q32, 13q14, 13q22, 15q22. These data indicate a non-random distribution of chromosomal aberrations induced by nifurtimox therapeutic treatment. 相似文献

Medulloblastoma (MB) is one of the most aggressive pediatric brain tumor. We report genome-wide pooled-analysis of classic MB variant of patients over 3 years of age at diagnosis. We combined array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) results from experimental analysis (31 cases) with two public databases (55 cases) in a final evaluation of 86 MBs. The most common chromosome structural aberrations were gains of 17q (45.3%), 1q (22.1%), and losses of 8p (15.1%), 10q (19.8%), 17p (37.2%), and 16q (16.3%). Isochromome (17q) was observed in 29.1% MBs. A significant association between poor patients survival and losses of 9q (p?0.0023), 10q (p?0.012), and 16q (p?0.036) was observed. Univariate analysis showed association of 9q loss (p?0.008) and 16q loss (p?=?0.05) with adverse overall survival (OS). Chromosome 6 monosomy was a protective event although statistically borderline (p?=?0.066). After adjusting for confounding factors, a poor OS was found for patients whose tumor has 9q loss [hazard ratio (HR)?=?3.97; p?0.006) or 16q loss (HR?=?2.41; p?=?0.038). Our results highlight the importance of genomic studies in different MB histological variants and indicate a genotype-phenotype correlation. 相似文献

We describe a case of retinoblastoma with an atypical presentation and previously unreported cytogenetic aberrations. A 19-month-old girl with left intraocular retinoblastoma was treated with enucleation and chemotherapy. The disease showed aggressive evolution within a short period between diagnosis and relapse. Eight months after diagnosis, a new large tumor was present in the orbit of the right eye, with diffuse bone pain, pancytopenia and diffuse infiltration into the bone marrow and the central nervous system. The child did not respond to treatment and died. Cytogenetic studies made with G-banding, FISH and SKY analysis showed chromosomal aberrations commonly associated with retinoblastoma, including del(13q), i(6p), +1, and monosomy 16, along with others that had not been reported previously, including dup(5q), dic(15;22) and add(14q). The new chromosomal aberrations may be related to the aggressiveness of the disease in this case. 相似文献

Background: Chromosomal aberrations and instability of gene(s) are two factors related to the genetic instability of cancer cells. A loss of the tumor-suppressor function of the genes p16 and p53 is the most common event leading to the development of human cancers. Carcinoma of the lung is the leading cause of cancer deaths in the world. Chromosomal abnormalities in lung cancer may provide a valuable clue to the identification of target loci and culminate in a successful search for the major genes. The aim of this study was to investigate (i) alterations of the p16 and p53 genes and (ii) chromosomal aberrations in patients with small cell and non-small cell lung cancer by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and cytogenetic studies. Methods: We carried out cytogenetic analysis by Giemsa-banding in 18 cases. FISH probes for the p16 and p53 genes were also used on interphase nuclei to screen the alterations in these genes in lung cancer (LC).Results: We observed a high frequency of losses of the p16 – in 8/18 (44%) – and p53 – in 7/18 (39%) – genes in the cases with LC. A total of 18 patients showed predominantly numerical and structural aberrations. Among these two types, structural aberrations predominated and usually consisted of deletions, breaks, and fragilities in various chromosomes. Both structural and numerical changes were observed in almost all patients. Chromosomes 3 and 1 were found to be most frequently involved in structural abnormalities, followed by chromosomes 6, 9, and 8. Autosomal aneuploidies were also observed to be the most frequent (chromosomes 22, 19, 18, 20, 9, and 17), followed by those of the X and Y chromosomes. The expression of fragile sites was also found to be significantly higher in seven chromosomal regions: 3p14, 1q21, 1q12, 6q26, 9q13, 8q22, and 8q24. Conclusion: Our data confirmed that DNA damage and genomic instability may be factors contributing to the mutation profile and development of lung cancer. The patients who developed lung cancer showed a high frequency of loss of both p16 and p53, in addition to chromosomal aberrations. Tobacco could be a major carcinogenic factor in lung-cancer progression. The loss of p16 and p53, and increased incidence of autosomal aneuploidy and chromatid breaks, along with other chromosomal alterations, can contribute to the progression of the disease. 相似文献

High resolution oligonucleotide array Comparative Genome Hybridization technology (array-CGH) has greatly assisted the recognition of the 1p36 contiguous gene deletion syndrome. The 1p36 deletion syndrome is considered to be one of the most common subtelomeric microdeletion syndromes and has an incidence of ~1 in 5000 live births, while respectively the "pure" 1p36 microduplication has not been reported so far. We present seven new patients who were referred for genetic evaluation due to Developmental Delay (DD), Mental Retardation (MR), and distinct dysmorphic features. They all had a wide phenotypic spectrum. In all cases previous standard karyotypes were negative. Array-CGH analysis revealed five patients with interstitial 1p36 microdeletion (four de novo and one maternal) and two patients with de novo reciprocal duplication of different sizes. These were the first reported "pure" 1p36 microduplication cases so far. Three of our patients carrying the 1p36 microdeletion syndrome were also found to have additional pathogenetic aberrations. These findings (del 3q27.1; del 4q21.22-q22.1; del 16p13.3; dup 21q21.2-q21.3; del Xp22.12) might contribute to the patients' severe phenotype, acting as additional modifiers of their clinical manifestations. We review and compare the clinical and array-CGH findings of our patients to previously reported cases with the aim of clearly delineating more accurate genotype-phenotype correlations for the 1p36 syndrome that could allow for a more precise prognosis. 相似文献

一例新生复杂染色体重排的女性携带者(complex chromosome rearrangement ,CCR),易位涉及1号、5号和12号染色体。病人因2次自然流产而要求进行外周血淋巴细胞G显带核型分析。最初G显带核型疑为46,XX,t(1;5;12)(1pter→1q25::12q24→12qter;5qter→5p11::1q25→1qter;12pter→12q24::5p11→5pter).经荧光原位杂交(FISH)技术检测,证实患者的核型为46,XX,t(1;5;12)(1pter→1q23::12q22→12qter;5qter→5p11::1q25→1qter;12pter→12q22::1q23→1q25::5p11→5pter).7年后病人再次妊娠,并拒绝产前诊断。女婴足月分娩,生长发育正常。核型为46,XX。比较以前报告的女性复杂易位携带者与我们报告的病例可以认为,CCR并不总是表现为自然流产或分娩畸形儿,仍有机会生出正常的孩子。Abstract: We reported in the paper one case of a de novo complex chromosomal rearrangement (CCR) involving three different chromosomes,1, 5 and 12. Two pregnancies of the female carrier over three years resulted in two spontaneous abortions. Initial cytogenetic analysis of her peripheral lymphocyte by G banding suspected a karyotype 46,XX,t(1;5;12)(1pter →1q25::12q24→12qter;5qter→ 5p11::1q25→1qter;12pter →12q24::5p11→5pter). Fluorescense in -situ hybridization (FISH) was used to confirm the karyotype 46,XX,t(1;5;12)(1pter→1q23::12q22→12qter;5qter→5p11::1q25→1qter;12pter→12q22::1q23→1q25::5p11→5pter). Seven years later she was pregnant again and refused to have prenatal diagnosis. The fetus is normal both in phenotype and karyotype。Comparing previously reported female CCR carriers with the case, we conclude that female CCR carriers may not always present spontaneous abortion or have offspring with congenital malformation and can have chance to get a healthy child. 相似文献
