چکیده

A rare case of variant Philadelphia (Ph1) chromosome positive [46, XX, t (9; 22) (q34; q11), inv (9) (9q22; 22q13)] chronic myelocytic leukemia (CML) was described. The patient, 73 years old female, was hospitalized to our hospital because of leukocytosis. Hematological findings corresponded to those of CMLs. However, this case lacked hepatosplenomegaly. Southern blot analysis using a 3 breakpoint cluster region (bcr) probe revealed a bcr rearrangement. The patient has been in the chronic phase for sixteen months without treatment. Clinical and chromosomal changes are under observation in order to get accumulate data for a pathophysiological analysis of variant Ph1 positive CMLs.

Localization of the human c-sis oncogene in Ph1-positive and Ph1-negative chronic myelocytic leukemia by in situ hybridization.

Oncogenes are a group of evolutionary conserved cellular genes (c-onc) homologous to the transforming genes of oncogenic retroviruses (v-onc). Some of them are localized near the breakpoints of specific chromosomal aberrations occurring in various neoplasms, as for example the Philadelphia translocation, t(9;22)(q34;q11), in chronic myelocytic leukemia (CML). Recently, we localized the human c-...

The Philadelphia chromosome in human macrophages.

Three patients with chronic myelocytic leukemia in different phases of the natural history of the disease were studied. Their bone marrow cells were cultured under conditions favoring macrophage proliferation, and parallel cytogenetic and cytochemical studies were performed. All cell metaphases examined contained the Ph1 chromosome at a time when more than 80% of these metaphases were in identi...

Molecular analysis of interferon-induced suppression of Philadelphia chromosome in patients with chronic myeloid leukemia.

Treatment with recombinant human interferon alpha-A (Roferon-A) is associated with stable suppression of the population of cells that display the Philadelphia (Ph1) chromosome in some patients with chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) as defined by cytogenetic analysis. Southern blot analyses employing a 3' breakpoint cluster region (bcr) probe (Pr-1) were performed to confirm a complete suppress...

Restoration of nonclonal hematopoiesis in chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) following a chemotherapy-induced loss of the Ph1 chromosome.

After intensive chemotherapy, marrow cells of some patients with Philadelphia chromosome (Ph1) positive chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) become partially or completely Ph1-negative. However, without a second marker for the neoplastic clone, it could not be determined if these Ph1-negative cells arose from normal progenitors or were still members of an abnormal clone. In the present study, a p...

Sister chromatid exchange in Philadelphia chromosome (Ph1)-positive leukemia.

The sister chromatid exchange (SCE) frequency was studied in the leukemic cells of 12 patients, 10 with Philadelphia chromosome (Ph1)-positive chronic myelocytic leukemia (CML), 1 with Ph1-negative CML, and 1 with acute myeloblastic leukemia. Except for two patients in the blastic phase of CML, the SCE values were within the normal range [3.8 +/- 6.4 (S.D.) SCE/cell; normal is 3.3 +/- 2.2 SCE/c...
