A chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) patient with a masked Ph chromosome due to the translocation (9;10;22)(q34;q24;q11) is reported. Banding analysis showed a 9q+ chromosome typical of standard t(9;22)(q34;q11), and fluorescence in situ hybridization studies confirmed the involvement of a chromosome 10 in the masked Ph formation and also the presence of 3' ABL-DNA sequences in the der(22). This complex rearrangement could be explained by two consecutive translocations: the first, a standard t(9;22) (q34;q11), the second, a translocation between a chromosome 10 and the der(22) with a breakpoint in sequences derived from chromosome 9 telomeric to the ABL gene. By reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), we studied the BCR/ABL transcript junction: a chimeric m-RNA b3-a2, indicating a breakpoint within the major breakpoint cluster region, was found.
报告了一名慢性粒细胞白血病(CML)患者,其因易位(9;10;22)(q34;q24;q11)存在隐匿性费城染色体。显带分析显示出标准t(9;22)(q34;q11)典型的9q +染色体,荧光原位杂交研究证实10号染色体参与了隐匿性费城染色体的形成,并且在der(22)中存在3' ABL - DNA序列。这种复杂的重排可以通过两个连续的易位来解释:第一个是标准的t(9;22)(q34;q11),第二个是10号染色体与der(22)之间的易位,其断点位于源自ABL基因端粒的9号染色体序列中。通过逆转录聚合酶链反应(RT-PCR),我们研究了BCR/ABL转录本连接点:发现了一种嵌合的m-RNA b3-a2,表明在主要断裂点簇区域内存在一个断点。
