چکیده

An acquired chromosomal translocation, t(8;13)(p11;q11-12), observed in a distinctive type of stem cell leukemia/lymphoma syndrome, leads to the fusion of the 5' portion of ZNF198 and the 3' portion of FGFR1. ZNF198-FGFR1 fusion transcripts encode 4 to 10 zinc fingers, a proline-rich region, and the intracellular portion of the FGFR1 (fibroblast growth factor receptor 1) receptor tyrosine kinase. We demonstrate that the ZNF198 proline-rich region constitutes a novel self-association domain. When fused to the intracellular domain of FGFR1, the ZNF198 proline-rich region is sufficient to cause oligomerization, FGFR1 tyrosine kinase activation, and transformation of Ba/F3 cells to IL-3 independent growth.

PKC412 inhibits the zinc finger 198-fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 fusion tyrosine kinase and is active in treatment of stem cell myeloproliferative disorder.

Human stem cell leukemia-lymphoma syndrome usually presents itself as a myeloproliferative disorder (MPD) that evolves to acute myeloid leukemia and/or lymphoma. The syndrome associated with t(8;13)(p11;q12) results in expression of the ZNF198-fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) 1 fusion tyrosine kinase. Current empirically derived cytotoxic chemotherapy is inadequate for treatment of this...

The 8p11 myeloproliferative syndrome: review of literature and an illustrative case report.

The 8p11 myeloproliferative syndrome (EMS), also called stem cell leukemia/lymphoma (SCLL), is a relatively rare condition characterized in its typical form by the occurrence, either simultaneously or sequentially, of a bcr/abl-negative myeloproliferative disorder and a lymphoma, usually a precursor T lymphoblastic lymphoma. The disease most often terminates in acute myeloid leukemia which is r...

Critical role of STAT5 activation in transformation mediated by ZNF198-FGFR1.

The 8p11 myeloproliferative syndrome is an aggressive disorder caused by FGFR1 fusion proteins resulting from a subset of acquired translocations that target chromosome band 8p11. These chimeric proteins have constitutive FGFR1 tyrosine kinase activity and are believed to deregulate hemopoietic development in a manner analogous to BCR-ABL in chronic myeloid leukemia. Here we have studied the ro...

Consistent fusion of ZNF198 to the fibroblast growth factor receptor-1 in the t(8;13)(p11;q12) myeloproliferative syndrome.

The 8p11 myeloproliferative syndrome is a rare, aggressive condition associated with reciprocal translocations of chromosome band 8p11, most commonly the t(8;13)(p11;q12). To identify the genes involved in this translocation, we used fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis to show that the chromosome 8 breakpoints fell within YAC 899e2 and that the chromosome 13 breakpoints are clust...

Induction of the plasminogen activator inhibitor-2 in cells expressing the ZNF198/FGFR1 fusion kinase that is involved in atypical myeloproliferative disease.

The ZNF198/FGFR1 fusion kinase associated with an atypical myeloproliferative disease is constitutively activated and regulates several STAT transcription factors. We used oligonucleotide microarrays to compare the gene-expression profiles between HEK-293 cells that stably express either the ZNF198/FGFR1 chimeric protein or the wild-type ZNF198 gene. Expression of the plasminogen activator inhi...
