After allogeneic stem-cell transplantation, nonhematopoietic tissues contain donor-derived cells; however, whether cells from malignant hematological disease can also be found in nonhematopoietic tissues is unclear. This report describes a juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia (JMML) case with a typical PTPN11 mutation (p.E76K) at different allele frequencies in the bone marrow mononuclear cells, buccal smear cells, and fingernails at diagnosis, which was suggestive of PTPN11 somatic mosaicism; however, the PTPN11 mutation in the buccal smear cells and fingernails was lost after unrelated cord blood transplantation. These results suggest that JMML-derived cells may migrate into and reside in nonhematopoietic tissues and furthermore that these cells can be eradicated by cord blood transplantation.
异基因干细胞移植后,非造血组织中含有供体来源的细胞;然而,非造血组织中是否也能发现来自恶性血液病的细胞尚不清楚。本报告描述了1例青少年骨髓单核细胞白血病(JMML)病例,该病例在诊断时骨髓单个核细胞、颊黏膜涂片细胞和指甲中存在典型的PTPN11突变(p.E76K),且等位基因频率不同,提示存在PTPN11体细胞镶嵌现象;然而,无关脐血移植后,颊黏膜涂片细胞和指甲中的PTPN11突变消失。这些结果表明,JMML来源的细胞可能迁移至并存在于非造血组织中,而且这些细胞可通过脐血移植被清除。
