The c-kit Asp816Val activating mutation is found in all patients with mastocytosis with an associated hematologic disorder, and at least in a subset of patients with indolent mastocytosis. The case of an 11-month-old child is presented who was categorized as having indolent mastocytosis, and where the Asp816Val mutation was identified in lesional skin, but not in bone marrow or in peripheral blood mononuclear cell populations. The significance of these findings is discussed.
在所有伴有相关血液系统疾病的肥大细胞增多症患者中均发现c-kit Asp816Val激活突变,并且至少在一部分惰性肥大细胞增多症患者中也有发现。本文报告了一名11个月大儿童的病例,其被归类为惰性肥大细胞增多症,在其皮损中鉴定出Asp816Val突变,但在骨髓或外周血单核细胞群体中未发现该突变。文中讨论了这些发现的意义。
