We encountered a patient with Philadelphia-negative chronic myeloid leukaemia, with t(7;11)(p15;p15), in whom acute leukaemia phase (acute myeloid leukaemia-M2 morphology) developed within a short period. We detected a novel gene fusion between NUP98 and HOXA11 both in the chronic phase and in the acute leukaemia phase in this case. Although it is well known that a fusion of NUP98-HOXA9 in myeloid malignancies is created by the t(7;11)(p15;p15), this case suggests the possibility that HOXA11 might be another partner gene for NUP98 in t(7;11)(p15;p15) leukaemia.
我们遇到一名费城染色体阴性的慢性髓性白血病患者,其核型为t(7;11)(p15;p15),该患者在短时间内进展为急性白血病期(急性髓性白血病-M2形态)。在该病例的慢性期和急性白血病期,我们均检测到一种新的NUP98与HOXA11基因融合。虽然已知在髓系恶性肿瘤中,t(7;11)(p15;p15)会导致NUP98-HOXA9融合,但该病例提示,在t(7;11)(p15;p15)白血病中,HOXA11可能是NUP98的另一个伙伴基因。
