چکیده

By analysis of a series of somatic cell hybrids derived by fusion of either mouse or Chinese hamster cells with leukocytes from different chronic myelocytic leukemia (CML) patients or from normal donors, we have localized the human oncogene, c-sis, on the q11 to qter segment of chromosome 22 and demonstrated its translocation from chromosome 22 to chromosome 9 (q34) in CML.

C-sis and C-abl expression in chronic myelogenous leukemia and other hematologic malignancies.

Cellular oncogenes have been localized at the breakpoints of characteristic chromosomal rearrangements occurring in certain hematologic malignancies. This has been reported to result in aberrant expression of the involved oncogenes. Over 90% of chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) is characterized by a reciprocal translocation that brings c-abl from chromosome 9 to chromosome 22, and c-sis from c...

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-...

Unique fusion of bcr and c-abl genes in Philadelphia chromosome positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

The Philadelphia (Ph) chromosome, the product of t(9:22), is the cytogenetic hallmark of chronic myelogenous leukemia. The c-abl oncogene on chromosome 9 is translocated to the Ph chromosome and linked to a breakpoint cluster region (bcr), which is part of a large bcr gene. This results in the formation of a bcr-c-abl fusion gene, which is transcribed into an 8.5 kb chimeric mRNA encoding a 210...

Variable breakpoints on the Philadelphia chromosome in chronic myelogenous leukemia.

The abl oncogene is translocated from chromosome 9 to 22 in the creation of the Philadelphia (Ph1) chromosome. This article describes new translocation breakpoints identified in two patients with chronic myelogenous leukemia using Southern blotting and cloned human DNA probes from chromosome 9. The translocation breakpoints on chromosome 9 in both of these patients lie closer to the human cellu...

RNA in Patients With Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia

C HRONIC MYELOGENOUS LEUKEMIA (CML) is characterized by two major phases. The chronic phase lasts an average of 3 years and is characterized primarily by accumulation of granulocytes and their precursors in the bone marrow and peripheral blood. This is followed by the acute phase (blast crisis) in which the leukemia cells fail to differentiate and to respond to regulatory factors of myelopoiesi...
