Two apparent Philadelphia chromosomes arising from translocations with different chromosomes in a patient with CML: 46,XY,t(7;22)(p22;q11),t(9;22)(q34;q11).

Chromosome studies on bone marrow cells and unstimulated peripheral lymphocytes from a patient with chronic myelogenous leukemia revealed the presence in all cells of two apparent Philadelphia chromosomes: one resulting from the classical translocation with a chromosome #9, and the other arising from a translocation between chromosomes #22 and #7. There was no normal chromosome #22. Some of the cells also had an i(17q), indicative of blast crisis. Repeated chromosome studies at different times during the course of the disease revealed the evolution of additional karyotypic changes. All cells from later samples had an extra #8; some of these cells had a third Philadelphia chromosome, whereas, others had a second Y chromosome. Although a few normal cells were seen in PHA-stimulated lymphocyte cultures, indicating that the patient has a normal constitutional karyotype, most of the cells had a karyotype identical to that found in unstimulated cultures. This unusual karyotype, 46,XY,t(7;22)(p22;q11),t(9;22)(q34;q11), represents the first case in which two apparent Philadelphia chromosomes are present in the leukemic cells from a patient in the absence of a normal #22 chromosome.

Chromosome studies in 70 brain tumors with special attention to sex chromosome loss and single autosomal trisomy.

Chromosome analysis was performed on 70 brain tumors. Thirty-six tumors showed clonal karyotypes characterized by many autosomal abnormalities; 20 meningiomas revealed monosomy 22 as a consistent abnormality, and 12 gliomas showed various abnormalities frequently involving chromosomes 3, 7, and 22. Of the remaining 34 tumors, 24 had normal karyotypes and 10 had clonal cells with loss and/or an extra sex chromosome with single trisomy of chromosomes 3, 6, 7, or 14. Sex chromosome aneuploidy was mostly due to loss of the Y or an X chromosome and was observed in 25 tumors, usually together with autosomal abnormalities. In these tumors the average frequency of cells with sex chromosome aneuploidy was 52%, with a range from 12% to 100%. Loss of the Y was found significantly more frequently in tumors of aged patients. Chromosome analysis in materials subcultured for a long period showed a tendency for cellular selection in which clonal cells with many autosomal abnormalities disappeared rapidly and karyotypes having loss or an extra sex chromosome and/or trisomy 7 were present in an increasing proportion with advance of cell generations in vitro. We infer that the cells having loss of one sex chromosome or trisomy 7 have a proliferative advantage. And that cells bearing only these abnormalities may exist in normal brain tissue more abundantly than in any other body tissue. The possibility of tissue-specific aneuploid mosaicism in the normal tissue would allow an alternative interpretation for simple autosomal trisomy in solid tumors.

Cytogenetic and molecular studies on a recombinant human X chromosome: implications for the spreading of X chromosome inactivation.

A pericentric inversion of a human X chromosome and a recombinant X chromosome [rec(X)] derived from crossing-over within the inversion was identified in a family. The rec(X) had a duplication of the segment Xq26.3----Xqter and a deletion of Xp22.3----Xpter and was interpreted to be Xqter----Xq26.3::Xp22.3----Xqter. To characterize the rec(X) chromosome, dosage blots were done on genomic DNA from carriers of this rearranged X chromosome using a number of X chromosome probes. Results showed that anonymous sequences from the distal end of the long arm to which probes 4D8, Hx120A, DX13, and St14 bind as well as the locus for glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) were duplicated on the rec(X). Mouse-human cell hybrids were constructed that retained the rec(X) in the active or inactive state. Analyses of these hybrid clones for markers from the distal short arm of the X chromosome showed that the rec(X) retained the loci for steroid sulfatase (STS) and the cell surface antigen 12E7 (MIC2); but not the pseudoautosomal sequence 113D. These molecular studies confirm that the rec(X) is a duplication-deficiency chromosome as expected. In the inactive state in cell hybrids, STS and MIC2 (which usually escape X chromosome inactivation) were expressed from the rec(X), whereas G6PD was not. Therefore, in the rec(X) X chromosome inactivation has spread through STS and MIC2 leaving these loci unaffected and has inactivated G6PD in the absence of an inactivation center in the q26.3----qter region of the human X chromosome. The mechanism of spreading of inactivation appears to operate in a sequence-specific fashion. Alternatively, STS and MIC2 may have undergone inactivation initially but could not be maintained in an inactive state.

Loss of heterozygosity on chromosomes 3, 13, and 17 in small-cell carcinoma and on chromosome 3 in adenocarcinoma of the lung.

By a molecular genetic approach using polymorphic DNA markers that detect allelic deletion of specific chromosomal regions, we analyzed for possible loss of chromosomal heterozygosity in five different histological types of lung cancers obtained from 47 patients. In small-cell carcinomas, the incidence of allelic deletions at three different chromosomal loci was extremely high; loss of heterozygosity was detected on chromosomes 3p in 7 of 7 patients (100%), 13q in 10 of 11 patients (91%), and 17p in 5 of 5 patients (100%). The deletions at these loci in small-cell carcinomas were observed even in the tumors without any clinical evidence of metastasis. Furthermore, loss of heterozygosity on chromosomes 3p and 13q occurred prior to NMYC amplification and chromosome 11p deletion. Loss of heterozygosity on chromosome 3p was also detected with high frequency in adenocarcinomas [5 of 6 patients (83%)]. Heterozygosity of chromosomes 13q and 17p was lost in 10 of 31 patients (32%) and in 3 of 12 patients (25%), respectively, of lung cancers other than small-cell carcinomas. These results indicate that recessive genetic changes involving sequences on chromosomes 3p, 13q, and 17p may play important roles in the genesis of small-cell carcinoma, and those on chromosome 3p may play an important role in the genesis of adenocarcinoma.

In situ localization of human fibronectin (FN) genes to chromosome regions 2p14----p16, 2q34----q36, and 11q12.1----q13.5 in germ line cells, but to chromosome 2 sites only in somatic cells.

The locations of the genes for fibronectin (FN) on chromosomes of human germ line and somatic cells were determined by in situ molecular hybridization with two 3H-labeled DNA probes, one for the region encoding the cell attachment domain of human FN, the other for the 3' noncoding and part of the coding region. Pachytene chromosomes of two males and lymphocyte chromosomes of one of these males and a female were used. Two regions of hybridization on pachytene and somatic chromosome 2 (p14----p16 and q34----q36) were found, but not in all individuals. A third region of hybridization was found at 11q12.1----q13.5 in meiotic, but not with significant frequency in somatic chromosomes. It is not clear if these differences between meiotic and somatic chromosomes, and the large differences between individuals at some of the other hybridization sites, resulted solely from technical factors. The differences between the findings in meiotic and somatic preparations might be due to the presence of four strands in pachytene chromosomes versus only one per somatic chromatid. Individual differences in DNA sequences in the chromosome segment containing the gene, differences in gene locations among individuals, or between meiotic and mitotic chromosomes might account for the other findings. The results confirm some of the earlier studies with cell hybrids that mapped FN genes to chromosomes 2 or 11. The combined findings suggest that some of these loci may be coding for the plasma form of FN and others for the cellular form. The expression of the different FN types by differentiated cells might then depend on the loci that are activated.

[Molecular cytogenetic detection of minute chromosomal structural abnormality on the chromosomal terminal regions].

In order to identify those easily overlooked minute chromosomal structural abnormality on the chromosomal regions, and to provide a valuable guidance for pregnancy, fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) technique by whole chromosome 7 painting probe, Xq probe and subterminal probe of 7q36-->qter was performed to analyze two cases. Case 1 had a history of recurrence spontaneous abotion and with an uncertain minute translocation on the chromosomal terminal regions. Case 2 was a premature ovarian failure patient with a balanced translocation between chromosome X and chromosome 7 by G banding. The results showed that case 1 was a cryptic minute translocation on the chromosomal terminal regions, and the breakpoint of case 2 was accurately determined, that is, the breakpoint was not on 7q36 but on 7qter. Therefore FISH technique with whole chromosome painting probe and subterminal probe could be used to diagnose the minute chromosomal structural abnormality on the chromosomal regions. It could be used widely in the clinical genetics and was an effective tool for genetic counseling and reproductive guidance.

Chromosomal loss and deletion are the most common mechanisms for loss of heterozygosity from chromosomes 5 and 7 in malignant myeloid disorders.

We have examined a population of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) for loss of heterozygosity of polymorphic markers on chromosomes 5 and 7. The rationale for this study was the observation that the majority of patients with therapy-related leukemia (t-AML or t-MDS), resulting from cytotoxic treatment for prior malignancies, have loss of chromosome 5 and/or 7 or deletions involving the long arms of one or both of these chromosomes. This cytogenetic finding suggested that tumor-suppressor genes, important in the development of AML, may be located in these chromosomal regions. We analyzed a total of 60 patients, 43 with primary MDS/AML de novo and 17 with t-MDS/t-AML. Leukemia cells were evaluated for restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs). Leukemia cell genotypes were compared with lymphoblastoid cell genotypes from the same patients. Two cases of loss of heterozygosity were identified from chromosomes lacking visible deletions: one involving chromosome 5 in a patient with AML de novo who had a visible deletion of 5q at a later stage of the disease, and one involving chromosome 7 in a patient with t-AML. We conclude that allele loss from loci on chromosomes 5 and 7 in MDS/AML, when it occurs, usually results from major deletion or simple chromosome loss, rather than from mitotic recombination or chromosome loss with duplication of the remaining homologue.

Use of chromosome painting for marker chromosome identification in two children with congenital disorders.

Identification of supernumerary de novo marker chromosomes was considered up to now as difficult and sometimes impossible with classical cytogenetical banding methods. The determination of their chromosomal origin is now easier with fluorescent in situ hybridisation techniques and enables an exact correlation between chromosomal aberration and phenotypic features to be established. The authors describe the use of chromosome painting with chromosome 13 and 18 Whole library DNA probe for identification of supernumerary markers in tow patients with congenital disorders. Cytogenetic examination in the first cave revealed a mosaicism with a ring chromosome 13 but clinical findings were different from the classical "ring 13 syndrome', and chromosome painting revealed in an extra--dicentric 13 chromosome (mos : 47, XX, -13, +r (13) +dic (13) / 46, XX, r (13) / 45, XX, -13 / 48, XX, -13, +r (13), (12) dic (13) / 47, XX, -13, + (2) r (13), R-banding pattern on prometaphases and chromosome painting in the second case confirmed the marker to be a 18 p isochromosome (47, XX, +i (18p)). The feasibility and the usefulness of chromosome painting in ascertainment of the possible genetic significance of markers is discussed.

Distribution of spontaneous chromosome breaks in human chromosomes.

Localization of chromosome breaks in human chromosomes was analyzed in 264 peripheral lymphocyte cultures. Three hundred and sixty-nine chromosome breaks could be exactly localized to a chromosome band or region of the Paris Conference nomenclature. The distribution of breaks in the chromosome regions was found to be nonrandom. Chromosome 3 alone had 23% of the breaks and region 3p2 had 13% of the total breaks. Some other chromosome regions, such as 5p1, 9q1, 14q2, and 16q2 also displayed clustering of breaks. Sex chromosomes had less breaks than expected. Spontaneous chromosome breaks were almost exclusively located in the lightly stained G bands.

Development and use of metaphase chromosome flow-sorting methodology to obtain recombinant phage libraries enriched for parts of the human X chromosome.

Metaphase chromosomes isolated from human lymphoblastoid cell lines containing structurally abnormal X chromosomes have been stained with the bisbenzimidazole dye Hoechst 33258 and analyzed on a FACS II flow system equipped with a 5-W all-lines argon ion laser. The chromosomal fluorescence has been highly resolved at flow rates of 1,000-3,000 chromosomes per second. With the goal of obtaining recombinant DNA libraries from parts of the human X chromosome, fluorescence populations enriched for a dicentric X (Xpter- greater than Xq24::Xq24-greater than Xpter) chromosome and an isochromosome of the long arm of the X [i(Xq)] have been identified. The dicentric X chromosome has been resolved as a discrete peak in the fluorescence flow histogram. In contrast, the fluorescence intensity of the isochromosome is indistinguishable from that of chromosomes 3 and 4. Recombinant DNA libraries from the flow-sorted chromosomes have been constructed in the lambda phage, Charon 21A, and consist of 1.6 X 10(5) and 0.7 X 10(5) plaque-forming units in the case of the dicentric X and the isochromosome, respectively. Ninety percent of the phage in both recombinant libraries contain inserts which hybridize to highly repetitive human DNA sequences. The recombinant phage library from the flow-sorted dicentric X chromosome, which could be assigned to a discrete fluorescence peak, has been further characterized and shows at least a tenfold enrichment for X chromosome-specific DNA sequences as determined by Southern blot hybridization of cloned fragments.

Chromosomal instability and marker chromosome evolution in oral squamous cell carcinoma.

Squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck and its subset, oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), arise through a multistep process of genetic alterations as a result of exposure to environmental agents, such as tobacco smoke, alcoholic beverages, and viruses, including human papillomavirus. We and others have shown that the karyotypes of OSCC are near-triploid and contain multiple structural and numerical abnormalities. However, despite a background of clonal chromosomal aberrations, individual cells within a culture express many nonclonal numerical and structural abnormalities, termed chromosomal instability (CIN). To evaluate CIN in oral cancer cells, we isolated clones from two OSCC cell lines and carried out classical cytogenetic analysis, fluorescence in situ hybridization using centromere-specific probes, and spectral karyotyping. We observed variation in chromosome number within clones and between clones of the same cell line. Although similar numbers of centromeric signals for a particular chromosome were present, "homologs" of a chromosome varied structurally from cell to cell (marker chromosome evolution) as documented by classical and spectral karyotyping. In addition to the numerical chromosome variations within a clone, we observed marker chromosome evolution by structural chromosome alterations. It appears that both intrinsic structural alterations and extrinsic cytoskeletal factors influence chromosome segregation, resulting in individual tumor cells that express unique karyotypes. We show that CIN and marker chromosome evolution are essential acquired features of neoplastic cells. Proliferation of this heterogeneous cell population may provide some cells with the ability to evade standard therapies.

Chromosome 2-specific DNA clones from flow-sorted chromosomes of tomato.

We obtained DNA clones specific to tomato chromosome 2 from a small number of chromosomes collected by flow sorting. Suspensions of metaphase chromosomes were prepared from 3-month-old tomato cell cultures of Lycopersicon pennellii. Isolated chromosomes stained with chromomycin A3 and Hoechst 33258 were analyzed on an EPICS 753 flow cytometer using a UV laser to excite Hoechst fluorescence and a 458 nm laser to excite chromomycin A3 fluorescence. Chromosomes from well-resolved peaks on a bivariate flow karyotype were sorted directly onto membrane filters for spot-blot analysis. The filters were processed and hybridized with chromosome-specific repetitive DNA probes. In this way tomato chromosome 1 and chromosome 2 were assigned to peaks in the bivariate flow karyotypes. One thousand copies of the putative chromosome 2 were flow-sorted directly into microfuge tubes. DNA specific to chromosome 2 was amplified by a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technique using universal 22mer degenerate oligonucleotide primers (DOP) sequences. DOP-PCR yields a smear of fragments of various sizes from 250 to 1600 bp. Amplified products were cloned into the Bluescript plasmid vector. Approximately 11% of the clones contained sequences with highly repetitive elements, and 85% contained only low-copy-number sequences. Eleven clones containing low-copy-number sequences that detect restriction fragment length polymorphisms were placed on the molecular linkage map of tomato. All showed linkage to chromosome 2.

Specific staining of human chromosomes in Chinese hamster x man hybrid cell lines demonstrates interphase chromosome territories.

In spite of Carl Rabl's (1885) and Theodor Boveri's (1909) early hypothesis that chromosomes occupy discrete territories or domains within the interphase nucleus, evidence in favor pf this hypothesis has been limited and indirect so far in higher plants and animals. The alternative possibility that the chromatin fiber of single chromosomes might be extended throughout the major part of even the whole interphase nucleus has been considered for many years. In the latter case, chromosomes would only exist as discrete chromatin bodies during mitosis but not during interphase. Both possibilities are compatible with Boveri's well established paradigm of chromosome individuality. Here we show that an active human X chromosome contained as the only human chromosome in a Chinese hamster x man hybrid cell line can be visualized both in metaphase plates and in interphase nuclei after in situ hybridization with either 3H- or biotin-labeled human genomic DNA. We demonstrate that this chromosome is organized as a distinct chromatin body throughout interphase. In addition, evidence for the territorial organization of human chromosomes is also presented for another hybrid cell line containing several autosomes and the human X chromosome. These findings are discussed in the context of our present knowledge of the organization and topography of interphase chromosomes. General applications of a strategy aimed at specific staining of individual chromosomes in experimental and clinical cytogenetics are briefly considered.

Construction of microcell hybrid panel containing different neo gene insertions in mouse chromosome 17 used for chromosome-mediated gene transfer.

A panel of four microcell hybrids representing different sites of insertion of the exogenous neo gene into mouse chromosome 17 has been constructed. These constructions were based on a cotransfer of mouse chromosome 17 and neomycin resistance generated in a stepwise procedure involving (1) random insertion of the neo gene into a primary cell hybrid containing mouse chromosome 17 in a hamster cell background, (2) microcell-mediated chromosome transfer (MMCT) to segregate mouse and hamster chromosomes, and (3) identification of the mouse chromosome containing cells using a novel cell dotting procedure for mass screening at the cell colony level by molecular hybridization. Using this panel of four microcell hybrids for chromosome mediated gene transfer (CMGT), we obtained one transformant containing a chromosome fragment derived from the t-complex region located on mouse chromosome 17. It is concluded that the specific chromosome based procedure used here to generate CMGT transfectants may provide a general means to produce large numbers of transfectants containing megabase fragments covering, in principle, all regions of a given chromosome.

The physical relationship of barley chromosome 5 (1H) to the linkage groups of rice chromosomes 5 and 10.

Using a recently developed polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-mediated approach for physical mapping of single-copy DNA sequences on microisolated chromosomes of barley, sequence-tagged sites of DNA probes that reveal restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLP) localized on the linkage maps of rice chromosomes 5 and 10 were allocated to cytologically defined regions of barley chromosome 5 (1H). The rice map of linkage group 5, of about 135 cM in size, falls into two separate parts, which are related to the distal portions of both the short and long arms of the barley chromosome. The markers on the rice map of chromosome 5 were found to be located within regions of the barley chromosome which show high recombination rates. The map of rice chromosome 10, of about 75 cM in size, on the other hand, is related to an interstitial segment of the long arm of chromosome 5 (1H) which is highly suppressed in recombination activity. For positional cloning of genes of this homoeologous region from the barley genome, the small rice genome will probably prove to be a useful tool. No markers located on rice chromosomes were detected within the pericentric Giemsa-positive heterochromatin of the barley chromosome, indicating that these barley-specific sequences form a block which separates the linkage segments conserved in rice. By our estimate approximately half of the barley-specific sequences of chromosome 5 (1H) show a dispersed distribution, while the other half separates the conserved linkage segments.

Mitotic stability of yeast chromosomes: a colony color assay that measures nondisjunction and chromosome loss.

A colony color assay that measures chromosome stability is described and is used to study several parameters affecting the mitotic maintenance of yeast chromosomes, including ARS function, CEN function, and chromosome size. A cloned ochre-suppressing form of a tRNA gene, SUP11, serves as a marker on natural and in vitro-constructed chromosomes. In diploid strains homozygous for an ochre mutation in ade2, cells carrying no copies of the SUP11 gene are red, those carrying one copy are pink, and those carrying two or more copies are white. Thus, the degree of red sectoring in colonies reflects the frequency of mitotic chromosome loss. The assay also distinguishes between chromosome loss (1:0 segregation) and nondisjunction (2:0 segregation). The most dramatic effect on improving mitotic stability is caused by increasing chromosome size. Circular chromosomes increase in stability through a size range up to approximately 100 kb, but do not continue to be stabilized above this value. However, linear chromosomes continue to increase in mitotic stability throughout the size range tested (up to 137 kb). It is possible that the mitotic stability of linear chromosomes is proportional to chromosome length, up to a plateau value that has not yet been reached in our synthetic constructions.

Abnormal chromosome migration and chromosome aberrations in mouse oocytes during meiosis II in the presence of topoisomerase II inhibitor ICRF-193.

Using a mouse parthenogenetic system, effects of ICRF-193, a noncleavable complex-forming topoisomerase II inhibitor, on female meiosis II chromosomes and pronuclear chromosomes were studied. Eggs were exposed to the inhibitor (10 microM) at various times after parthenogenetic stimulation, and chromosomes of them were analyzed at the first cleavage metaphase. When eggs were exposed to the inhibitor during the period from metaphase II to anaphase II, a significant increase in incidences of structural chromosome aberrations (51.1% versus 1.3% in the control) and aneuploidy (30.3% versus 0.7% in the control) was found. Structural chromosome aberrations were observed in 10-20% of eggs following treatments during telophase II, but there was no increased incidence of aneuploidy in treatments during this meiotic stage. When pronuclear eggs at S phase were targeted by the inhibitor, no significant increase in chromosome aberrations was found.Interestingly, when chromatids moved to each pole during anaphase II in the presence of ICRF-193, most of them oriented their centromeres toward the spindle equator as if moving backwards. Moreover, lagging chromatids with the centromeres present were observed in more than 50% of treated eggs. However, chromosomal bridges that resulted from chromosome stickiness did not appear in any egg.These findings indicate that ICRF-193 can induce structural chromosome aberrations and aneuploidy in mouse secondary oocytes in meiotic stage-dependent manner. The induction of aneuploidy is due to disruption of the separation of sister centromeres at anaphase II. There appears to be mechanism(s) other than cleavable complex formation or chromosome stickiness behind the induction of structural chromosome aberrations by ICRF-193.

Increased frequency of dicentric chromosomes in therapy-related MDS and AML compared to de novo disease is significantly related to previous treatment with alkylating agents and suggests a specific susceptibility to chromosome breakage at the centromere.

Dicentric chromosomes are observed in many malignant diseases including myelodysplasia (MDS) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and have often been observed in a subset of these diseases, namely therapy-related MDS (t-MDS) and AML (t-AML). Using fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) with centromere-specific probes, we investigated the frequency and type of dicentric chromosomes in 180 consecutive patients with t-MDS and t-AML and in 231 consecutive patients with de novo MDS and AML, whose karyotypes had been studied previously by conventional G-banding. Twenty-seven out of 180 patients with t-MDS or t-AML presented dicentric chromosomes compared to only seven out of 231 patients with de novo disease (P = 0.00003). A dic(1q;7p) was observed in 10 cases, a dic(5p;17q) was observed in six cases, whereas various isodicentric chromosomes were observed in six cases. Excluding these six cases with isodicentrics, all 25 patients with dicentric chromosomes had involvement of at least one of the chromosome arms 1q, 5p, or 7p resulting in monosomy for 5q or 7q, and/or trisomy for 1q. Patients with dicentric chromosomes presented significantly more often as t-MDS compared to patients without dicentrics (P = 0.046), and the presence of a dicentric chromosome was significantly related to previous therapy with alkylating agents (P = 0.026). Thus, only one out of 27 patients with a dicentric chromosome had not previously received an alkylating agent. A specific susceptibility to breakage at the centromere after exposure to alkylating agents is suggested and may explain the frequent loss of whole chromosomes, in particular chromosomes 5 and 7 in t-MDS and t-AML, if the breaks are not followed by rejoining.
