The incidence of submicroscopic deletions in reciprocal translocations is similar in acute myeloid leukemia, BCR-ABL positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia, and chronic myeloid leukemia.

چکیده
We compared the incidence of submicroscopic deletions accompanying balanced translocations using interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) in 245 patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), 79 patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and BCR-ABL (n=70) or MLL rearrangements (n=29), and 412 patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with CBFB-MYH11 (n=122), PML-RARalpha (n=108), AML1-ETO (n=112), or MLL rearrangements (n=98). The incidence of submicroscopic deletions was 2-9% depending on the entity.

Frequency of BCR-ABL Fusion Transcripts in Iranian Azeri Turkish patients with Chronic Myeloid Leukemia
Background: The Philadelphia chromosome (Ph) characterized by t (9; 22) (q34; q11.2) is a reciprocal translocation giving rise to a chimeric BCR-ABL fusion gene. Incidence of Ph chromosome is over 98% in Patients with Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML) and around 20% in acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). The finding of this fusion gene is essential for diagnosis of CML by detection of various fusi...
متن کاملDetection of abl/bcr Fusion Gene in Patients Affected by Chronic Myeloid Leukaemia by Dual-Colour Interphase Fluorescence in situ Hybridisation
Conventional cytogenetic is the standard technique for detection of Philadelphia (Ph) chromosome in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). Evaluation of abelson murine leukemia/breakpoint cluster region (abl/bcr) fusion using dual-colour fluorescence in situ hybridization (D-FISH) is an alternative approach allowing rapid and reliable detection of the disease. We employed the technique of interphase D...
متن کاملAnalysis of Expression Of SIRT1 Gene In Patients With Chronic Myeloid Leukemia Resistant To Imatinib Mesylate
Background: Chronic myeloid leukemia is a clonal myeloproliferative disease which is characterized by bcr/abl translocation. With the emergence of tyrosine kinase inhibitors such as imatinib mesylate, significant improvement has been made in treatment of this disease. However, drug resistance against this medicine is still an obstacle. SIRT1 is a gene with deacetylase activity which has been de...
متن کاملBCR-ABL fusion genes and laboratory findings in patients with chronic myeloid leukemia in northeast Iran
Background: A specific chromosomal abnormality, the Philadelphia chromosome (BCR-ABL fusion), is present in all patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). The b2a2 and b3a2 fusion mRNAs encode p210 fusion protein p210 and e1a2 encode p190. The aim of this study was to evaluate the frequency of BCR-ABL fusion transcript variants in Northeast of Iranian CML patients and to compare the laborato...

Introduction: Childhood cansers are the second leading cause of death among children. Since the incidence and prevalence of malignancies are different in different regions and there are several cultural and environmental factors involved, the aim of this study was investigating epidemiology of common malignancies in children in Hamedan Province during the years of 1386-1395. Methods: In this c...
