背景介紹
MYC基因?qū)儆谠┗?,在伯基特淋巴瘤中發(fā)現(xiàn)(Burkitt lymphoma ,BL),包含C-MYC(8號(hào)染色體),N-MYC(2號(hào)染色體),L-MYC(1號(hào)染色體)三種基因。DNA斷裂引起MYC基因重排,MYC重排在BL,彌漫性大B細(xì)胞淋巴瘤(diffuse large B-cell lymphom-a,DLBCL),B細(xì)胞淋巴瘤(B-cell lymphoma)中均會(huì)被檢測到,MYC重排導(dǎo)致MYC基因擴(kuò)增失去控制從而加快癌癥發(fā)展進(jìn)程。MYC-IGH(t(8;14)(q24;q32))是一種常見的重排形成的融合基因。MYC/IGH/CEP8三色雙重融合探針如圖所示:
探針描述
臨床意義
在疑似伯基特淋巴瘤病例排查中,準(zhǔn)確鑒定MYC重排的必要性已經(jīng)得到了證實(shí),并且長期以來一直是細(xì)胞遺傳學(xué)分析的常規(guī)檢查部分,在淋巴瘤其他亞型中,對MYC進(jìn)行重排檢測也對疾病診斷有很大的幫助。
