Chromosomal lesions and uniparental disomy detected by SNP arrays in MDS, MDS/MPD, and MDS-derived AML

Abstract: IntroductionThe myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are a heterogeneous group of clonal hematopoietic stem-cell disorders characterized by cytopenias and frequent leukemic progression. MDS constitutes a prototype of age-related malignancy, with a prevalence in the United States that may be more than 100 000. 1 Its incidence in the United States, estimated to be more than 10 000 yearly, is likely to further increase due to the greater life expectancy of the general population (http://www.census.gov/).Chromosomal ab… Show more

“…Deletions with similar breakpoints were described in two patients with refractory anemia 6 and in two patients with chronic myelomonocytic leukemia. 32 Taken together, this del(7q22) with similar deletion end points seems to be a frequent recurrent hidden aberration. Although the deletion in 8ptel can be seen in the Agilent workbench program, the log ratio is very low.…”

“…This gene is also the most frequent target for chromosomal translocations in leukemia and the fusion protein inhibits the function of the native allele. 36 So far only a few RUNX1 deletions have been described in MDS (for example, Heinrichs et al 10 and Gondek et al 32 ). Inactivation of the normal RUNX1 function is not sufficient to cause leukemia and other cooperating alterations were postulated.…”

“…We hypothesized that the cluster upregulation might be caused by altered imprinting in DMR, possibly because of uniparental disomy (UPD) and/or deregulated epigenetic mechanisms in 14q32. We read through recent publications whether any defect was detected in this region; however, the absence of copy number variations or UPD found in 14q32 25,26 suggests a change in the methylation or acetylation status or aberrant characteristics of some transcriptional regulators. Limited information is available on the function of 14q32 miRNAs; however, several publications suggested their implication in cell development and oncogenesis.…”

“…The International Prognostic Scoring System (IPSS) [8] was that most commonly used and has been now revised [17][18][19]. Thus, cytogenetic abnormalities remain one of the major determinants of MDS pathogenesis, diagnosis, prognosis and guide any potential treatment decisions [12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25], however more sensitive techniques such as array Comparative Genomic Hybridization, Single Nucleotide Polymorphism arrays (SNP-a) and Next-Generation Sequencing are still used in the research setting only [26][27][28][29][30][31]. The IPSS precisely defines the prognostic value of the most frequent chromosomal defects, whereas it does not define rare or combined abnormalities, which are included within the intermediate category [8].…”
