Southern blot hybridization was used to detect the rearrangement and amplification of five proto-oncogenes (bcl-2, bcl-1, c-myc, c-myb and c-Ha-ras) and one tumor suppressor gene (RB-1) in 55 Japanese patients with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma; 16 with T-cell lymphomas and 39 with B-cell lymphomas (7 follicular and 32 diffuse lymphomas). Genetic abnormalities of the proto-oncogenes were detected in 7 of the 55 (13%). Genetic abnormalities of bcl-2 plus other genes were detected in 5 of 7 cases of follicular lymphoma (71%), rearrangements of bcl-2 and c-myc, rearrangement of bcl-2 and amplification of c-myb. Genetic abnormalities were observed in only three cases of diffuse lymphoma. In each of 3 cases of B-cell lymphoma, one of the genes, blc-2 mbr, bcl-2 mcr and c-myc, was rearranged respectively. The incidence of genetic abnormalities in diffuse lymphomas (6.3%) was lower than that in follicular lymphomas. None of diffuse lymphomas had double oncogene abnormality. No abnormalities were found in RB-1, bcl-1, and Ha-ras. These findings suggest that follicular lymphomas are associated with some abnormalities of oncogenes not restricted to bcl-2 that facilitate growth which may be associated with their clinical features.
采用Southern印迹杂交法检测55例日本非霍奇金淋巴瘤患者中5种原癌基因(bcl - 2、bcl - 1、c - myc、c - myb和c - Ha - ras)和1种肿瘤抑制基因(RB - 1)的重排与扩增情况;其中16例为T细胞淋巴瘤患者,39例为B细胞淋巴瘤患者(7例滤泡性淋巴瘤和32例弥漫性淋巴瘤)。55例患者中有7例(13%)检测到原癌基因的遗传异常。7例滤泡性淋巴瘤中有5例(71%)检测到bcl - 2及其他基因的遗传异常,包括bcl - 2和c - myc重排、bcl - 2重排及c - myb扩增。仅在3例弥漫性淋巴瘤中观察到遗传异常。在3例B细胞淋巴瘤中,分别有1例blc - 2 mbr、bcl - 2 mcr和c - myc基因发生重排。弥漫性淋巴瘤的遗传异常发生率(6.3%)低于滤泡性淋巴瘤。弥漫性淋巴瘤均无双重原癌基因异常。在RB - 1、bcl - 1和Ha - ras基因中未发现异常。这些发现提示,滤泡性淋巴瘤与某些癌基因异常有关,不限于bcl - 2,这些异常促进肿瘤生长,可能与其临床特征相关。
