Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Amniocentesis was performed in a woman who previously had given birth to a boy who died at 12 months of age with a diagnosis of glyceroluria and adrenal insufficiency. A high amount of glycerol (9.0 standard deviations above mean for controls) was found in the amniotic fluid. Enzyme activity of glycerol-kinase (ATP:glycerol-3-phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.30) in the cultured amniotic fluid cells was very low. The pregnancy was terminated and a male fetus was aborted. Examinations of DNA isolated from the fetus did demonstrate deletions of two out of 16 DNA probes mapping to the short arm of the X-chromosome. The probes failing to hybridize to DNA from the fetus were C7 (DXS28) and L1.4 (DXS68), both mapping to Xp21.3 and located terminal to the Duchenne locus.

The human cystatin C gene (CST3), mutated in hereditary cystatin C amyloid angiopathy, is located on chromosome 20

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Hereditary cystatin C amyloid angiopathy has recently been shown to be caused by a point mutation in the cystatin C gene. To determine the chromosomal localization of the gene, 20 human-rodent somatic cell hybrids and a fulllength cystatin C cDNA probe were used. Southern blot analysis of BamHI digested cell hybrid DNA revealed that the probe recognizes a 10.6 kb human specific fragment and that this fragment cosegregates with human chromosome 20. Therefore, the human cystatin C gene (CST3) was assigned to chromosome 20.

High resolution banding analysis of the reciprocal translocation t(6;9) in acute nonlymphocytic leukemia
- 1986

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.

Reciprocal translocation (11;19)(q23;p13) in congenital acute lymphoblastic leukemia

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.

- Cytogenetic investigation of short-term cultures from a bizarre leiomyoma of the uterus, a tumor type not hitherto karyotypically characterized, revealed two abnormal clones with multiple complex rearrangements. Three-fourths of the aberrant cells were hypodiploid with the composite karyotype 38-44, XX,-6,-7,-10,-11,+20,-22, r(1), der(2) (:2p23cen2q13::1q211qter), der(2)t(2;9)(p21;q13), t(5;?)(q35;?), t(5;?),(q35;?), + der(5)t(5;15)(q11;q15), der(8)t(8;11)(q24;q13), t(15;?)(p12;?), der(16)t(12;16)(q13;p13),+r,+mar. The remaining abnormal mitoses were hypotetraploid, with chromosome numbers ranging from 74 to 86. These massively rearranged cells showed the same markers that were found in the hypodiploid clone, but in duplicate, indicating that this clone had arisen through polyploidization of hypodiploid cells. Flow cytometry revealed a DNA index of 1.03.
