Inversiones cromosómicas (anomalías estructurales poco frecuentes) asociadas a fenotipo normal, dudoso y patológico

Prensa méd. argent; 104 (10), 2018
Las inversiones son reordenamientos intracromosómicos originados por dos rupturas en un cromosoma seguidas de la reinserción del fragmento rotado en 180º. Dependiendo si involucra o no al centrómero pueden ser pericén tricas o paracéntricas. La incidencia es 0.09 a 0.49/1.000. Las inversiones son r...

A pioneering RET genetic screening study in the State of Ceará, Brazil, evaluating patients with medullary thyroid cancer and at-risk relatives: experience with 247 individuals

ABSTRACT Objective: Initial diagnosis of medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) is frequently associated with advanced stages and a poor prognosis. Thus, the need for earlier diagnoses and detection in relatives at risk for the disease has led to increased use of RET genetic screening. Subjects and methods:...

Minimal residual disease detection in Tunisian B-acute lymphoblastic leukemia based on immunoglobulin gene rearrangements

Braz. j. med. biol. res; 50 (1), 2017
IGH gene rearrangement and IGK-Kde gene deletion can be used as molecular markers for the assessment of B lineage acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL). Minimal residual disease detected based on those markers is currently the most reliable prognosis factor in B-ALL. The aim of this study was to use clona...

Immunoglobulin heavy chain gene rearrangement in non B-cell haematological malignancies

West Indian med. j; 62 (8), 2013
PURPOSE: Clonality detection through amplifying immunoglobulin heavy chain (IGH) gene rearrangements by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is a useful tool in diagnosis of various B-lymphoid malignancies. Immunoglobulin heavy chain gene rearrangement can be an optimal target for clonality detection in B-lym...
