• 22 pairs plus 2 sex chromosomes (diploid number: 46): (46, XX) • Composed of DNA plus infrastructure (histones, , RNA, sugars) • 3 groups of shapes based on position, arm length Example of G-Banding:

• GTL stain: Giemsa//Leishman p arm • Chr 11 is submetacentric • RttiidRepresentative ideogram Centromere • Stained to distinguish denser and less dense areas • Unique patterns for each chromosome q arm • Many genes coded • Banding ≠ genes

• DNA sequence begins with a start codon; ends with a stop codon • Amino acids (each with a 3-character code) then join to form a which then has a function • There i s “fill er ” DNA that codes for other stuff So Many Genes…

• Certain morphologic subtypes were known to have distinct prognoses and/or clinical syndromes (M0-M7) • Examples: – acute ppyyromyelocytic leukemia ()(M3) • High bleeding risk due to coagulopathy but favorable prognosis • t(15; 17)(q22;q12) – AML, subtype M4eo • Favorable prognosis • inv(16)(p13;q22) – Chronic myeloid leukemia •t(9 ;22)(q 11 ;q34 ) – Some myelodysplastic patients— typically older women--had a pattern of normal platelet counts and a favorable prognosis • 5q- syndrome Risk Stratification for Acute LkLeukem ias UiCUsing Cytogenet ics • Previous to and others’ observations about cytogenetics and prognosis, leukemias were only categorized by morphology under the

•AML – Favorable Risk • inv (16) • t (8;21) • t (15;17) – Intermediate Risk • All abnormalities not in favorable or high risk categories, plus normal – Poor Risk • Monosomy 5 or 7; 5q-; 7q- • t (9;22) • Complex (3 or more abnormalities) •ALL – Favorable risk • Hyperdiploidy – High Risk • t (1;19) • t (9;22) • t (4;11) Pre-TED Form (1): Cyto data

• First three AML cyto abnormalities are associated with favorable prognosis (AML/ETO, e.g., refers to the two genes involved in the leukemia) • AML with 11q23: often associated with previous topoisomerase inhib.-based chemotherapy (MLL gene is located at 11q23); usually t(9;11) (p22;q23) Pre-TED Form (2)

• No te tha t f or coll ec tion o f chimerism data, PCR is not an option and should not be recorded under “other” Disease Status: FISH

• For data purposes, FISH is a subset of cytogenetics (cellular level) • Molecular evidence would be PCR and similar The Future of Prognosticating Outcomes in Acute Leukemia • May be based on the molecular of the leukemia as ascertained by –PCR –FISH – Microarray data/gene profiling • More and more critical to understand the molecular basis as more targeted therapies bilblbecome available – Anti-bcr/abl drugs: imatinib and 2nd generation drugs – Anti flt3 etc. Summary

• A variety of chromosomal abnormalities can be characterized and described using cytogenetics • Non-random chromosomal alterations occur, can define the disease (e.g. APML), and can have important prognostic value • Not all genetic abnormalities can be seen using cytogenetic techniques (e. g. normal cytogenetics in AML) • Newer techniques (polymerase chain reaction [PCR], fluorescen t i n-situ hy br idiza tion [FISH]) can assist in searching for occult genetic aberrations Web References
