It is second only to Down Syndrome as a cause of mental retardation Fragile X syndrome appears in children of all ethnic, racial and socio-economic backgrounds 14 Fragile X Syndrome most common inherited form of familial mental retardation (CGG)n trinucleotide expansion in the FMR1 gene leading to the typical Martin-Bell phenotype Clinical features vary depending on age and seX Expansion of a (CCG)n repeat in the FMR2 gene corresponds to the FRAXE fragile site which lies distal to FRAXA and is also associated with mental retardation, but it is less frequent and lacks a consistent phenotype 15 Fragile X Syndrome 16 Fragile X Syndrome 17 Chromosome abnormalities Abnormality of chromosome number or structure: Numerical Abnormalities Structural Abnormalities 18 Structural Abnormalities Deletions: A portion of the chromosome is missing or deleted (>5 Mb). Paraderwilli Syndrome (Ch 15) Angleman Syndrome (Ch 15) Imprinting effect 19 DELETIONS Deletion refers to the loss of a segment of a chromosome This can be terminal (close to the end of the chromosome on the long arm or the short arm) or it can be interstitial (within) eg.DGS II 20 DELETIONS 21 Structural Abnormalities • Duplications: A portion of the chromosome is duplicated, resulting in extra genetic material. • Oncogenes (c-onc, c-fos, c-myc) 22 DUPLICATIONS refers to an extra chromosomal segment within the same homologous chromosome or an extra chromosomal segment on another nonhomologous chromosome. Again, the clinical findings are highly variable depending upon the chromosomal segments involved. Gene in expantion: Huntington Disease/ Fragile X, …. 23 Structural Abnormalities Translocations: When a portion of one chromosome is transferred to another chromosome. 24 There are two main types of translocations. In a reciprocal translocation, segments from two different chromosomes have been exchanged. In a Robertsonian translocation, an entire chromosome has attached to another at the centromere. 25 Reciprocal TRANSLOCATIONS Translocation involves two nonhomologous chromosomes (e.g., chromosome 2 and chromosome 6) Following a break in each of the chromosomes, and subsequent reunion a segment of chromosome 2 becomes attached to chromosome 6 26 TRANSLOCATIONS 27 Balanced reciprocal translocation Balanced reciprocal translocation 28 29 Structural Abnormalities Inversions: A portion of the chromosome has broken off, turned upside down and reattached, therefore the genetic material is inverted. eg Ch9 inv in Iran 30 Inversions involve only one chromosome the intervening segment is rejoined in an inverted or opposite manner. Since there is no loss nor gain of chromosomal material, inversion carriers are normal Paracentric: does not include the centromere pericentric:inverted segment contains the centromere In meiosis, the normal chromosome and the inverted chromosome will form a loop to allow pairing of specific DNA sequences that occur within the inversion loop result in gametes with both deletions and duplications inversion carriers have a relatively low risk of having abnormal offspring. 31 Inversions 32 Meiosis in an individual heterozygous for a pericentric inversio 33 Rings: A portion of a chromosome has broken off and formed a circle or ring. This can happen with or without loss of genetic material. 34 Ring 35 Oncology Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia (CML) a clonal expansion of transformed hematopoietic progenitor cells: Myeloid Monocytic Erythroid Megakaryocytic lymphoid lineages 36 Molecular level CML: characterized by the bcr-abl fusion gene reciprocal translocation t(9;22)(q34;q11) creating the Philadelphia (Ph) chromosome survival time of patients : to 5 to 7 years 37 Hematology Bone marrow 38 Chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) 15% to 20% of leukemias in adults incidence of 1 to 2 cases per 100,000 population 39 Chronic myelogenous leukemia occurs more frequently in males than in females (ratio of 1.3 to 1) Incidence: increases with age the median age at presentation is between 45 and 55 years which is an important consideration for the selection of therapeutic strategies stem-cell transplantation treatment with interferon-alfa (Intron A, Roferon-A) 40 41 The Philadelphia Chromosome a reciprocal translocation between the long arms of chromosome 9 and chromosome 22 the large segment of the c-abl gene from chromosome 9q34 to the part of the bcr gene on chromosome 22q11 in a head-to-tail fashion creating a hybrid bcr-abl gene that is transcribed into a chimeric bcr-abl mRNA 42 43 44 Detection of bcr-abl Cytogenetic analysis Ph chromosome in 90% of patients with CML Such analysis is tedious and timeconsuming allows the examination of only 20 to 25 metaphases per bone marrow sample misses the 5% of patients who are Phnegative but bcr-abl-positive Despite these shortcomings, cytogenetic analysis is the gold standard in the diagnosis of CML. 45 FISH Fluorescence in situ hybridization allows for the analysis of metaphase Results of FISH studies are easily quantifiable 46 fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) 47 fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) 48 FISH Bcr Abl AblBcr 49 Abl-Bcr 50
