  • New chromosomal rearrangement, t(12;22)(p13;q12), in acute nonlymphocytic leukemia
  • 1991

    • The karyotype 47,XX, + 8,t(12;22)(p13;q12) was found at diagnosis in two patients with acute nonlymphocytic leukemia (ANLL). The bone marrow morphology of both patients corresponded to the M4 subtype of the French-American-British (FAB) classification. The translocation t(12;22) has not previously been reported as the sole structural aberration in ANLL.

  • Chromosomal aberrations in benign and malignant Bilharzia-associated bladder lesions analyzed by comparative genomic hybridization.
  • 2002
  • Ingår i: BMC Cancer. - : Springer Science and Business Media LLC. - 1471-2407. ; 2:5
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • BACKGROUND: Bilharzia-associated bladder cancer (BAC) is a major health problem in countries where urinary schistosomiasis is endemic. Characterization of the genetic alterations in this cancer might enhance our understanding of the pathogenic mechanisms of the disease but, in contrast to nonbilharzia bladder cancer, BAC has rarely been the object of such scrutiny. In the present study, we aimed to characterize chromosomal imbalances in benign and malignant post-bilharzial lesions, and to determine whether their unique etiology yields a distinct cytogenetic profile as compared to chemically induced bladder tumors. METHODS: DNAs from 20 archival paraffin-embedded post-bilharzial bladder lesions (6 benign and 14 malignant) obtained from Sudanese patients (12 males and 8 females) with a history of urinary bilharziasis were investigated for chromosomal imbalances using comparative genomic hybridization (CGH). Subsequent FISH analysis with pericentromeric probes was performed on paraffin sections of the same cases to confirm the CGH results. RESULTS: Seven of the 20 lesions (6 carcinomas and one granuloma) showed chromosomal imbalances varying from 1 to 6 changes. The most common chromosomal imbalances detected were losses of 1p21-31, 8p21-pter, and 9p and gain of 19p material, seen in three cases each, including the benign lesion. CONCLUSION: Most of the detected imbalances have been repeatedly reported in non-bilharzial bladder carcinomas, suggesting that the cytogenetic profiles of chemical- and bilharzia-induced carcinomas are largely similar. However, loss of 9p seems to be more ubiquitous in BAC than in bladder cancer in industrialized countries.

  • Characterization of chromosomal abnormalities in uroepithelial carcinomas by G-banding, spectral karyotyping and fish analysis
  • 2001
  • Ingår i: International Journal of Cancer. - : Wiley. - 0020-7136 .- 1097-0215. ; 92:6, s. 824-831
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Chromosome analysis by G-banding, spectral karyotyping (SKY) and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) was per formed on 24 short-term cultured transitional cell bladder carcinomas and 5 cell lines established from bladder carcinomas. Except for one tumor with an apparently normal chromosomal constitution, clonal chromosome abnormalities were detected in all examined cases by the combined approach. The application of SKY and FISH techniques improved the karyotypic descriptions, originally based on C-banding only, by identifying 32 additional numerical changes, by establishing the chromosomal origin of 27 markers and 2 ring chromosomes, by redefining 53 aberrations and by detecting 15 hidden chromosomal rearrangements. No recurrent translocation, however, was detected. The most prominent: karyotypic feature was thus the occurrence of deletions and losses of whole chromosome copies indicating the importance of tumor suppressor genes in transitional cell carcinoma pathogenesis. Invasive carcinomas were karyotypically more complex than were low grade superficial tumors. Specific leases of material from chromosome 9 and from chromosome arms I Ip and 8p, and gains of 8q and Iq seem to be early changes appearing in superficial tumors, whereas losses from 4p and 17p and the formation of an isochromosome for 5p were associated with more aggressive tumor phenotypes.

  • Cytogenetic Analysis of 101 Giant Cell Tumors of Bone: Nonrandom Patterns of Telomeric Associations and Other Structural Aberrations
  • 2009
  • Ingår i: Genes, Chromosomes and Cancer. - : Wiley. - 1045-2257 .- 1098-2264. ; 48:7, s. 583-602
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Giant cell tumor of bone (GCTB) is a benign but locally aggressive tumor with metastatic potential. We performed cytogenetic analysis on 10 1 GCTB from 92 patients. Karyotypes were obtained from 95 tumors, 47 of which had clonal aberrations. The majority of the cytogenetically abnormal GCTB had multiple, up to 28 per tumor, clones. Clonal telomeric associations (tas) and other structural and numerical changes were found in about 70, 60, and 30%, respectively, of clonally abnormal tumors. Forty-seven aberrations were recurrent, of which 35 are novel. The vast majority of the recurrent aberrations were tas, confirming the important role of telomeric fusions in the development of GCTB. The frequency of tas in GCTB cultures increased with passaging, suggesting a selective advantage of tas-positive cells in vitro. The termini most frequently involved in tas were 22p, 13p, 15p, 21p, 14p, 19q, 1q, 12p, 11p, and 20q. The frequency of tas (irrespective of their clonality) was significantly higher in tumors carrying clonal changes, indicating that tas are precursors of other types of aberrations. In line with this assumption, the chromosomes preferentially involved in tas in a given tumor were also the ones most often affected by other rearrangements. We did not find the previously reported amplicon in 20q11.1, assessed by fluorescence in situ hybridization in 10 tumors. Nor did we find any association between cytogenetic features and adverse clinical outcome. Thus, local recurrences probably depend more on the adequacy of surgical treatment than on the intrinsic biology of the tumors. (C) 2009 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

  • A new specific chromosomal rearrangement, t(8;16) (p11;p13), in acute monocytic leukaemia
  • 1987
  • Ingår i: British Journal of Haematology. - 0007-1048. ; 66:3, s. 323-326
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • The translocation t(8;16) (p11;p13) was found as the sole deviation from the normal karyotype in three patients with acute monocytic leukaemia. The bone marrow morphology was strikingly similar in the two cases where smears were available for re-evaluation: the leukaemic cells showed signs of differentiation, and active erythrophagocytosis was a particularly conspicuous feature. We suggest that t(8;16) (p11;p13) represents a new consistent abnormality in acute monocytic leukaemia, specifically associated with the differentiated subtype (M5b) and with pronounced phagocytic activity by the leukaemic monocytes.

  • Bone marrow karyotypes in 94 children with acute leukemia
  • 1990
  • Ingår i: European Journal of Haematology. - 1600-0609. ; 44:4, s. 227-233
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • During the last 10 years, we have cytogenetically analyzed at diagnosis bone marrow cells from a total of 94 children with acute leukemia. Of the 78 children with acute lymphatic leukemia (ALL), 53 (68%) had clonal acquired chromosome abnormalities; in the group with acute nonlymphatic leukemia (ANLL), the corresponding proportion was 13 out of 16 (81%). Among the cytogenetically abnormal ALL patients, the most numerous subset was the hyperdiploid cases with stemlines containing 51 or more chromosomes (26 of 53 abnormal cases; 49%). This is a clearly higher proportion than has been reported in large series from other centers. Deletions of 6q were present in 8 cases and rearrangements of 12p in 5. Of the 7 T-cell ALLs, 3 had translocations of the distal part of 7q, i.e., of the region where the beta T-cell receptor is encoded. Only 2 of 26 (8%) patients with leukemic stemlines with more than 50 chromosomes have relapsed; the remainder are still in first remission (mean observation time 42 months). This may be contrasted with 6 of 25 (24%) relapses among the cytogenetically normal (observation time 41 months), and 8 of 27 (30%) relapses among ALL patients with aberrations but with less than 51 chromosomes (observation time 26 months). Our results support the conclusion that the finding of a markedly hyperdiploid leukemia karyotype is indicative of good prognosis in ALL.

  • High resolution banding analysis of the reciprocal translocation t(6;9) in acute nonlymphocytic leukemia
  • 1986
  • Ingår i: Cancer Genetics and Cytogenetics. - 0165-4608. ; 22:3, s. 195-201
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • The cytogenetic, hematologic, and clinical characteristics of a 13-year-old girl with acquired t(6;9)(p23;q34) and dysmyelopoietic syndrome developing into acute myelomonocytic leukemia are described, bringing the total number of patients with t(6;9) and hematologic disease described in the literature up to 19. The diagnosis has been acute myeloid leukemia in the great majority of these patients; only four have had acute myelomonocytic leukemia. High resolution analysis at the 550 band stage localized the breakpoints in chromosomes #6 and #9 to p23 and 9q34.3, respectively. Previous investigations employing high resolution cytogenetics have mapped the typical 9q breakage site in chronic myeloid leukemia to 9q34.1. In situ hybridization studies have demonstrated that the cellular oncogene c-abl remains on the derivative 9q+ chromosome in t(6;9), whereas it is moved to the Ph marker in t(9;22). Thus, the combined data indicate that c-abl is located between 9q34.1 and 9q34.3, i.e., in subband 9q34.2 or its immediate vicinity.

  • New structural chromosomal rearrangements in congenital leukemia
  • 1987
  • Ingår i: Leukemia. - 1476-5551. ; 1:1, s. 16-23
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • The karyotypic abnormalities and clinical data on three patients in whom acute leukemia was diagnosed within the first 6 months of life are presented. The four structural chromosomal rearrangements detected in the bone marrow from these patients, i.e., t(7;12)(q36;p13) and t(1;19)(q11;q11) in case 1, t(2;10;11;12)(q21q31;p13;q13;q24) in case 2, and t(11;19)(q23;p13) in case 3, have not previously been associated with congenital leukemia. Acquired chromosomal changes have until now been reported in only 31 leukemic infants in this age group. Of the total material, 18 patients had acute lymphoblastic leukemia and 16 had acute nonlymphocytic leukemia. The by far most frequently recorded cytogenetic aberration has been t(4q;11q), seen in 14 cases of lymphoblastic leukemia. Although t(4q;11q) has not been found in a single patient with acute nonlymphocytic leukemia, these leukemias have often had other rearrangements involving the same region of 11q. Hence, genetic material around 4q21 may be active in lymphocytic differentiation, whereas gene(s) in 11q23 may be important in the neoplastic process in a less cell-type specific manner and perhaps particularly vulnerable to neoplastic rearrangement in fetal life. The finding of four cases out of 34 with translocations between 11q23 and chromosome 19 indicates that this rearrangement might characterize a specific cytogenetic subgroup of leukemia in the very young.

  • Reciprocal translocation (11;19)(q23;p13) in congenital acute lymphoblastic leukemia
  • 1986
  • Ingår i: Cancer Genetics and Cytogenetics. - : Elsevier BV. - 0165-4608. ; 23:3, s. 239-244
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • The cytogenetic, clinical, and immunologic findings ina 4-month-old girl with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) are reported. The malignant lymphoblasts were characterized cytogenetically by the reciprocal translocation t(11;19)(q23;p13); immunologically by an immature pre-B-ALL phenotype. In spite of the high-risk nature of the leukemia, the patient attained complete remission relatively quickly and is still free of disease 3 years after diagnosis. Because the only two previously reported ALL patients with t(11;19) also seem to have responded well to therapy, this cytogenetic abnormality might turn out to be an indicator of favorable prognosis in ALL.

  • Identification of cytogenetic subgroups and karyotypic pathways in transitional cell carcinoma
  • 2001
  • Ingår i: Cancer Research. - 1538-7445. ; 61:22, s. 8241-8246
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • The clinical course in urinary bladder cancer is difficult or impossible to predict based on conventional disease parameters. It is a reasonable hypothesis that the genetic aberrations acquired by the tumor cells, being instrumental in bringing about the disease in the first place, may also hold the key to more reliable prognostication. However, though 200 transitional cell carcinomas (TCC), the most common bladder cancer in the Western world, with clonal chromosomal abnormalities have been reported, our knowledge about the karyotypic characteristics of these tumors remains insufficient. The aberration pattern is clearly nonrandom, but no completely specific primary or secondary karyotypic abnormality has been identified, and the chronological order in which the aberrations appear during disease progression is not well known. The high degree of karyotypic complexity in epithelial tumors like TCC is one reason why our picture of the sequential order of cytogenetic evolution is unclear. To overcome some of these difficulties we have used several statistical methods that allow analysis and interpretation of the relationship between cytogenetic aberrations in TCC. We show that there exists a temporal order with respect to the appearance of chromosomal imbalances and that this order is highly correlated with tumor stage and grade. Analyzing changes in the distribution of imbalances per tumor in G1, G2, and G3 tumors, we suggest that progression involves the acquisition of cytogenetically detectable and submicroscopic genetic changes at comparable frequencies. By means of computer simulations, we show that the imbalances -9, +7, and 1q+ appear earlier than expected from random events and that -6q, -5q, -18, +5p, -22p, and -15 appear later than expected. Using principal component analysis, we identify two cytogenetic pathways in TCC, one initiated by -9 and followed by -11p and 1q+, the other initiated by +7 and followed by 8p- and +8q. The -9 pathway was correlated with stage Ta-T2 tumors, whereas the +7 pathway was correlated with stage T1-T3 tumors, i.e., +7 tumors appeared to be more aggressive. Although these pathways are well separated at earlier stages, they later converge to contain a common set of imbalances.
