Primary pericardial synovial sarcoma with detection of the chimeric transcript SYT-SSX.
We report a case of a 19-year-old woman with a primary pericardial synovial sarcoma that extended from the right ventricular free wall to the posterior aspect of the left anterior thoracic wall. Synovial sarcoma was diagnosed by the detection of the chimeric transcript SYT-SSX using reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). This transcript is generated by reciprocal translocatio...
متن کاملNuclear localization of SYT, SSX and the synovial sarcoma-associated SYT-SSX fusion proteins.
Synovial sarcoma is characterized by a prevalent chromosomal translocation, t(X;18)(p11;q11). As a result of this translocation the SYT gene on chromosome 18 fuses to either the SSX1 or the SSX2 gene on the X chromosome. In this study, we generated polyclonal antibodies against the SYT and SSX2 proteins. These antibodies specifically detected both these proteins and the SYT-SSX fusion proteins ...
متن کاملSynovial Sarcoma Microvesicles Harbor the SYT-SSX Fusion Gene Transcript: Comparison of Different Methods of Detection and Implications in Biomarker Research
Background. Synovial sarcoma is an aggressive soft-tissue malignancy. This study examines the presence of the SYT-SSX fusion transcript in synovial sarcoma microvesicles as well as its potential role as a biomarker for synovial sarcoma. Patients and Methods. Microvesicle release of synovial sarcoma cells was examined by transmission electron microscopy. RNA-content was analyzed by qPCR, nested ...
متن کاملSSX 2 ( Synovial Sarcoma , X breakpoint 2 )
Description So far, two SSX2 protein isoforms (a and b) are known to exist. Their mRNAs correspond to SV1 (1466 bases) and SV3 (1322 bases) splice variants, respectively. The start codon for both isoforms is located in Exon 2. SSX2 isoform a is 233 amino acids (26.5 kD) and SSX2 isoform b 188 amino acids (21.6 kD). Of both isoforms, SSX2 isoform b is the most commonly seen and so far the best s...
متن کاملPrimary Monophasic Synovial Sarcoma Arising in the Mesentery: Case Report of an Extremely Rare Mesenteric Sarcoma Confirmed by Molecular Detection of a SYT-SSX2 Fusion Transcript
Synovial sarcoma arises in the para-articular tissues, and it can also occur in various unexpected sites. We report a rare case of primary monophasic synovial sarcoma (MSS) arising in the mesentery. A 59-year-old man presented with a palpable abdominal mass. On microscopic examination, the entire tumor comprised a dense proliferation of the spindle cells without epithelial components. The tumor...
