A cytogenetic study of bone marrow aspirate from 32 patients with different types of myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) has been carried out. The patients were from eight regions of Ukraine. Chromosome deletions prevailed in the spectrum of karyotype changes. The largest number of chromosome abnormalities was revealed in patients with a refractory anemia with an excess of blasts (66.6% of cases). Chromosomal changes that involved three or more chromosomes occurred among 27% of all karyotype changes examined by us. Transformation of myelodysplastic syndrome to acute myeloid leukemia (AML) was found in 5 patients (45.4% of the cases) among 11 patients with abnormal karyotypes. We propose that cytogenetic confirmation of increased apoptosis in the bone marrow from the myelodysplastic syndrome patients is a phenomenon of chromosome fragmentation. The risk of transformation of myelodysplastic syndrome to acute myeloid leukemia was measured with the use of a new international score system, IPSS.  相似文献

In order to detect a possible relationship between clonal chromosomal abnormalities acquired during the course of the disease and its prognosis in patients with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) the authors have performed consecutive analyses in 77 patients with this disease. They were part of the large series of 209 patients cytogenetically examined during the last ten years. According to the cytogenetic findings we have distinguished three groups: 1) sixteen patients who has a normal karyotype in bone marrow cells at the beginning of the investigation and this finding remained unchanged during the course of the disease. Three of them progressed into acute leukemia (AL) without any detectable change in the chromosomal complement of the bone marrow cells; 2) twenty-five patients who had at the beginning of the study, different pathological chromosomal clones in bone marrow cells. There was no chromosomal evolution detectable during the disease; eight of them progressed into acute leukemia; 3) thirty-six patients who had either normal or pathological chromosomal findings at the first examination and in whom further clonal abnormalities had developed during the course of the disease. Twelve of them progressed into acute leukemia. Two to nine cytogenetic examinations were successfully performed with a mean of three studies per patient. The results confirmed strictly individual development of chromosomal abnormalities during the course of the disease, with an unfavorable prognosis for the patients with complex chromosomal changes. Three patients with del 7q had very poor prognosis with rapid progression of the disease. Two cases with the same acquired abnormalities (del 20q, +8, -22) transformed into acute leukemia within the period of 36 months from the onset of the disease.  相似文献

BACKGROUND: Chromosome banding techniques and in situ hybridization reveal the majority of chromosomal aberrations. However, difficulties remain in cases of highly contracted chromosomes, poor quality of the metaphases or the presence of markers with the involvement of several chromosomes. Here, it is demonstrated that reverse painting can be applied successfully starting with bone marrow cells from primary acute myelocytic leukemias (AML). METHODS: This was accomplished by culturing the leukemic cells with a cocktail of various growth factors, which yielded sufficient numbers of cells in cycle to harvest chromosomes for sorting. Aberrant chromosomes were flow-sorted and amplified by degenerate oligonucleotide-primed PCR. The resulting products were labeled by nick-translation and hybridized on normal metaphase spreads. RESULTS: Two patients with marker chromosomes in their leukemia cells were analyzed in detail. The hybridization pattern displayed the composition of the aberrant sorted chromosome. Results were compared with conventional cytogenetic analyses that were performed on material obtained from the same aspirate. The reverse-painting technique enabled identification of aberrations that were not detected by conventional cytogenetic analysis. CONCLUSIONS: Primary AML cells can be cultured in vitro, using optimal culture conditions, facilitating the production of high quality flow karyotypes, suitable for sorting of marker chromosomes to produce DOP-PCR derived chromosome painting probes for reverse painting. Valuable additional cytogenetic information can thus be obtained about complex chromosomal rearrangements or structural aberrations that could not be completely resolved by conventional cytogenetic analysis.  相似文献

Сhromosomal abnormalities have been analyzed in bone marrow cells of 61 patients with relapse of B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia. The cytogenetic results have allowed the structural stratification of the obtained karyotypes into ten groups of clones: normal, normal/near tetraploid, abnormal/normal, abnormal/ near tetraploid/normal, evolution of clonal chromosome abnormalities; evolution of clonal chromosome abnormalities/normal, evolution of clonal chromosome abnormalities/near tetraploid/normal, independent clones, independent/normal clones; and independent/near tetraploid/normal clones. The identified structural rearrangements included translocations, deletions, insertions, and duplications; however, deletions with the involvement of bands 17p12, 13q12–q14, 11q14, and 11q23 dominated (63.8%). The application of i-FISH helped to show the presence of one to four abnormalities per karyotype. The identified cytogenetic and molecular cytogenetic rearrangements may signify a multilevel nature of the process underlying the development of resistant karyotypes. The results obtained under both methods have revealed the presence of a heterogenic cell population with possibly different levels of chemotherapy resistance.  相似文献

The t(8;21)(q22;q22) translocation, which fuses the ETO gene on human chromosome 8 with the AML1 gene on chromosome 21 (AML1-ETO), is one of the most frequent cytogenetic abnormalities associated with acute myelogenous leukemia (AML). It is seen in approximately 12 to 15% of AML cases and is present in about 40% of AML cases with a French-American-British classified M2 phenotype. We have generated a murine model of the t(8;21) translocation by retroviral expression of AML1-ETO in purified hematopoietic stem cells (HSC). Animals reconstituted with AML1-ETO-expressing cells recapitulate the hematopoietic developmental abnormalities seen in the bone marrow of human patients with the t(8;21) translocation. Primitive myeloblasts were increased to approximately 10% of bone marrow by 10 months posttransplant. Consistent with this observation was a 50-fold increase in myeloid colony-forming cells in vitro. Accumulation of late-stage metamyelocytes was also observed in bone marrow along with an increase in immature eosinophilic myelocytes that showed abnormal basophilic granulation. HSC numbers in the bone marrow of 10-month-posttransplant animals were 29-fold greater than in transplant-matched control mice, suggesting that AML1-ETO expression overrides the normal genetic control of HSC pool size. In summary, AMLI-ETO-expressing animals recapitulate many (and perhaps all) of the developmental abnormalities seen in human patients with the t(8;21) translocation, although the animals do not develop leukemia or disseminated disease in peripheral tissues like the liver or spleen. This suggests that the principal contribution of AML1-ETO to acute myeloid leukemia is the inhibition of multiple developmental pathways.  相似文献

Between 1981 and 1986 cytogenetic studies of bone marrow and/or blood cells in 139 patients with de novo acute myeloid leukemia (AML) were performed. The overall incidence of chromosomal aberrations was 53%, and this was not significantly influenced by sex, age nor the FAB classification. The aberrations most often found were: complex anomalies (n = 13), t(8; 21) (n = 10), trisomy 8 (n = 9), monosomy 7 (n = 6), monosomy 5, 5q-, trisomy 11, 12p- (n = 4) and trisomy 6, 11q-, inv (n = 3). The prognostic significance of chromosomal findings was evaluated in 112 patients treated by combination chemotherapy. The chromosomal status NN, AN, AA did neither significantly influence complete remission rate (NN: 68%, AN: 71%, AA: 60%) nor mean survival (NN: 24, AN: 26.6, AA: 35.6 months). On the other hand, certain types of chromosomal anomalies were of prognostic value. CR was obtained in all 10 patients with t(8; 21) but only in 2 out of 9 patients with complex aberrations. Median duration of CR in patients with t(8; 21) was significantly longer than in patients with a normal karyotype (30 vs 7 months).  相似文献

Investigation of the efficacy of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) in chronic myeloid leukemia patients is essential to predict prognosis and survival. In 20 patients treated at the Bone Marrow Transplantation Unit of S?o José do Rio Preto (S?o Paulo, Brazil), we used fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) to investigate the frequency of cells with BCR/ABL rearrangement at diagnosis and at distinct intervals after allo-HSCT until complete cytogenetic remission (CCR). We investigated the disease-free survival, overall survival in 3 years and transplant-related mortality rates, too. Bone marrow samples were collected at 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, and 24 months after transplantation and additional intervals as necessary. Success rate of the FISH analyses was 100%. CCR was achieved in 75% of the patients, within on average of 3.9 months; 45% patients showed CCR within 60 days after HSCT. After 3 years of the allo-HSCT, overall survival rate was 60%, disease-free survival was 50% and the transplant-related mortality rate was 40%. The study demonstrated that the BCR-ABL FISH assay is useful for follow-up of chronic myeloid leukemia patients after HSCT and that the clinical outcome parameters in our patient cohort were similar to those described for other bone marrow transplantation units.  相似文献

Flow cytometric DNA content in myelodysplastic syndromes   总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3  
DNA flow cytometric analysis of unfixed bone marrow cells stained with propidium iodide was carried out in 33 patients with untreated primary myelodysplastic syndromes. Patients with stable clinical course for up to 3 years had higher fractions of cells in S and G2 phases (22.7 +/- 12.4% and 12 +/- 3.6%) than those who developed acute leukemia and/or died early in the course of disease (14.4 +/- 8.5% and 6.6 +/- 4%). Median survival was more than 36 mo in patients with S + G2 cell fraction higher than 24%, and 14 mo in the remaining 16 patients with lower values (P less than 0.01). Analyses repeated after 3-24 mo showed no major changes in cell proliferation pattern in ten out of 11 patients. The remaining patient had sharp decrease in S and G2 cell fraction 3 mo before the transition into acute leukemia. The DNA index (DI) of bone marrow cells was calculated to assess ploidy. However, comparative evaluation of cytologic, cytogenetic, and flow cytometric data suggest that, under our experimental conditions, the DI may be influenced by factors such as the degree of chromatin compactness.  相似文献

The authors report two cases of secondary myelodysplasia and acute myeloid leukemia with t(3;21)(q26.3;q22) as the only cytogenetic abnormality in neoplastic bone marrow. This translocation was identified as a rare, recurring, non-random aberration in chronic myeloid leukemia less than five years ago and in secondary acute myeloid leukemia and myelodysplasia in 1990. The known and suspected cases in the literature are reviewed.  相似文献

This paper presents the results of a cytogenetic analysis in 139 Tunisian patients with de novo acute myeloid leukemia (AML), including 27 children aged 1-15 years and 112 adults. Mean age was 32 (range 1-75) and the M/F ratio was 1.43. Of our patients, 45% had apparently normal karyotypes. Acquired chromosome aberrations were found in 77 (55% ) patients. t(8;21) was identified in 27 patients (19%); t(15;17) in 13 patients (9%); deletion 7q or monosomy 7 in seven patients (5%); +8 in seven patients (5%); abnormal 16 in four patients (3%); 11q23 rearrangements in two patients (2%) and del(5q), in one patient (1%). The remaining 16 patients had miscellaneous clonal abnormalities. Specific translocations associated with the FAB type were found: t(8;21) with AML2 and t(15;17) with AML3. We concluded that our study in a Tunisian population confirmed the relation between some specific abnormalities and the FAB classification. We found a higher incidence for t(8;21) than usually described.  相似文献

Background

Bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cells (BM-MSCs) are an essential cell type in the hematopoietic microenvironment. The question of whether MSCs from patients with different leukemias have cytogenetic abnormalities is controversial. In this study, we attempted to review the cytogenetic profiles of MSCs in patients with leukemia, and verify whether these profiles were related to different ex vivo culture conditions or to chronic or acute disease states. This information could be useful in clarifying the origin of MSCs and developing clinical applications for this cell type.

Methods

A systematic literature search was performed using the PubMed search engine. Studies published over the past 15 years, i.e., between 1995 and January 2015, were considered for review. The following keywords were used: “cytogenetic,” “leukemia,” “bone marrow,” and “mesenchymal stromal cells.”

Results

Some studies demonstrated that BM-MSCs are cytogenetically normal, whereas others provided evidence of aberrations in these cells

Conclusions

Studying cytogenetic changes of MSCs in a variety of leukemias will help researchers understand the nature of these tumors and ensure the safety of human stem cells in clinical applications.

We studied the prognostic significance of combination of different chromosomal abnormalities and genomic mutations in Ph+ chronic myeloid leukemia patients. In general 49 cytogenetic analyses of bone marrow aspirate from 35 patients (11 of these observed in dynamics) have been carried out. The additional chromosome changes were found in 25.07% cases and approximately 80% of anomalies appeared in the blast phase. Among the secondary chromosomal abnormalities extra Ph-chromosome appeared mostly in different combinations with trisomy of chromosomes 8 and 19. Appearance of clonal differences of cells, high rate of genome mutations and of microchromosomes had negative prognostic significance on disease proceeding.  相似文献

The place of FISH in the monitoring of minimal residual disease (MRD) is yet to be fully characterised. Routine bone marrow cytogenetics at diagnosis in a 22 year old patient with acute myeloid leukemia FAB type M5 detected a translocation t(9;11)(p22;q23). We report our investigations to assess residual levels of translocation using a FISH probe designed to detect a gene split by the translocation. We used MLL (Oncor), a probe which spans the MLL gene at 11q23, in both metaphase and interphase preparations. At diagnosis, metaphase FISH showed 3 distinct cell lines-normal with 2 signals, abnormal with 3 signals and abnormal with 2 signals, while interphase FISH showed only 2 cell lines, one with 2 signals (which could be normal or abnormal) and one with 3 signals (split MLL). Following treatment, with the patient in clinical remission, 7 further cytogenetic analyses and 2 further FISH analyses were compared. Our results suggest that monitoring of the t(9;11) by metaphase FISH is feasible and straightforward compared to cytogenetics but interphase FISH may be problematic.  相似文献

Introduction:

Acute myeloid leukemia is a heterogeneous disorder characterized by immature myeloid cell proliferation. Cytogenetic analysis has revealed the presence of chromosomal aberrations important to patient prognosis.

Objective:

To determine cytogenetic risk groups of pediatric patients with acute myeloid leukemia according to overall survival.

Materials and methods:

In this cross-sectional observational study, the clinical records of pediatric patients diagnosed with de novo acute myeloid leukemia admitted to the Instituto Nacional de Enfermedades Neoplásicas between 2001 and 2011 with cytogenetic analysis of bone marrow were included. Cytogenetic risk groups were established according to the criteria of the Medical Research Council. Overall survival curves were generated with the Kaplan-Meier method and compared using the Mantel-Cox test and Cox regression with the software R, version 3.3.2.

Results:

A total of 130 patients were included, 68 males (52.3%) and 62 females (47.7%), most of them with subtype M2 (33%). The average age was 7.7 years (range: 0-15 years).Chromosomal aberrations were observed in 60.8% of the patients, the most frequent of which was the translocation t(8;21). According to the overall survival analysis, two cytogenetic risk groups were established: favorable and unfavorable.

Conclusion:

Two groups of cytogenetic risk were determined: high (or unfavorable) and standard (favorable).  相似文献

In 27 patients initially diagnosed as refractory anaemia (RA) or RA with sideroblasts (RA-S) according to the FAB-classification a number of clinical, morphological and cytogenetic parameters were correlated for prognostic significance. From these correlations it emerged that severe cytopenia is centrally positioned with regard to clinical course in RA and RA-S. Positive correlations were found to initial diagnosis, clonal cytogenetic abnormalities, progression to RA with an excess of blasts (RAEB) or acute myeloid leukaemia (AML), the percentage of bone marrow blast cells and prolonged half life for radioactively labeled iron. The degree of peripheral blood granulocytopenia, alone, was correlated to bone marrow hypoplasia. Moreover, the frequency of abnormal karyotypes was inversely correlated to bone marrow cellularity and proportional to the frequency of bone marrow blast cells. From these relationships it may be proposed that chromosome abnormalities are associated with prolonged blast cell generation times and inhibition of blast cell maturation resulting in reduced marrow cellularity and blast cell accumulation, and, in the peripheral blood, falling percentages of neutrophil granulocytes. With the blast cell accumulation the bone marrow cellularity again becomes hyperplastic and the preleukaemic condition is transformed into RAEB or AML.  相似文献

Background:

Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) with t (15;17) is a distinct category of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and is reported to show better response to anthracyclin based chemotherapy. A favorable overall prognosis over other subtypes of AML has been reported for APL patients but still about 15% patients relapse.

Methods:

This study evaluated the presence of Famus like tyrosine kinase-3 (FLT3) and nucleophosmin-1 (NPM1) gene mutations in a cohort of 40 APL patients. Bone marrow/peripheral blood samples from patients at the time of diagnosis and follow-up were processed for immunophenotyping, cytogenetic markers and isolation of DNA and RNA. Samples were screened for the presence of mutations in FLT3 and NPM1 genes using polymerase chain reaction followed by sequencing.

Results:

Frequency of FLT3/internal tandem duplication and FLT3/tyrosine kinase domain was found to be 25% and 7% respectively. We observed a high frequency of NPM1 mutation (45%) in the present population of APL patients.  相似文献

This study concerns the cytogenetic stability of in vitro human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in primary culture and after passaging. Bone marrow samples were collected from seven brain malfunction patients involved in autologous MSC transplantation trials. Chromosome preparations from primary MSC cultures and after 3 passages were analyzed by conventional staining and G-banding techniques. All MSCs showed normal diploid karyotypes, 46 XY or 46 XX, without aneuploidy or polyploidy; chromosome structural abnormalities were not detected. The results indicate that the in vitro cultured MSCs retained normal cytogenetics before being transplanted back into the patients.  相似文献
