| Popis: | The transformation of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) from a chronic phase to an acute phase is frequently accompanied by additional chromosome changes. Extensive chromosome G-banded studies have revealed the secondary changes are nonrandom and frequently include trisomy 8, isochromosome 17q, trisomy 19, or an extra copy of the Philadelphia chromosome. In addition to these secondary chromosome changes, complex structural rearrangements often occur to form marker structures that remain unidentified by conventional G-banded analysis. The CML-derived cell line, K562, has been widely used in research since it was originally established in 1975. The K562 karyotype however, has remained incomplete, and marker structures have never been fully described. Recent advances in fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) technology have introduced the possibility of chromosome classification based on 24-color chromosome painting (M-FISH). In this study, we report a clarified karyotype for K562 obtained by a combination of the following molecular cytogenetic techniques: comparative genomic hybridization (CGH), FISH mapping using locus-specific probes, and M-FISH. Multicolor FISH has identified the marker structures in this cell line. The characteristic marker chromosome in K562 has been confirmed by this study to be a der(18)t(1;18). Multicolor FISH confirmed the identity of marker structures partially identified by G-banding as der(6)t(6;6),der(17)t(9;17),der(21)t(1;21),der(5)t(5;6). In addition M-FISH has revealed a deleted 20q and a complex small metacentric marker comprised of material from chromosomes 1, 6, and 20. A cryptic rearrangement was revealed between chromosomes 12 and 21 that produced a structure that looks like a normal chromosome 12 homologue by G-banding analysis. Finally, M-FISH detected regions from chromosome 13 intercalated into two acrocentric markers. |
