A possible new heritable fragile site at band 8q24.1, which is known to be a breakpoint in various cancers and contains the c-myc locus, was found in the lymphocytes from a woman with mastopathy. This fragile site was induced by distamycin A treatment, and expressed as gaps and breaks in 18% of the metaphases examined. The lymphocytes from one of her two sons examined also revealed gaps or breaks at the same site of chromosome 8 in 34% of the metaphases. This fragile 8q24.1 band is considered to be a new heritable fragile site induced by distamycin A.
在一位患有乳腺病的女性的淋巴细胞中发现了一个可能位于8q24.1带的新的可遗传脆性位点,已知该位点是多种癌症的断点且包含c-myc基因座。这个脆性位点是由放线菌素A处理诱导产生的,在所检查的中期相中,有18%表现为间隙和断裂。在她两个儿子中,有一个儿子的淋巴细胞在所检查的中期相中,也有34%在8号染色体的同一位置出现间隙或断裂。这个8q24.1脆性带被认为是由放线菌素A诱导产生的一个新的可遗传脆性位点。
