    Notes: Abstract  The 20q13 region harboring recently described putative oncogenes is frequently amplified in invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC). The aim of this study was to examine the 20q13 copy number in intraduct hyperplasia (IH), atypical duct hyperplasia (ADH), and ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) adjacent to IDC. In 5 patients, comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) after laser microdissection revealed 20q13 amplification in four of five cases of IH, in all of three cases of IH with atypia, all five of DCIS, and all five of IDC. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) confirmed the amplification at 20q13.2 in IH in the two specimens analyzed. The amplification rate, however, was higher in DCIS and IDC. In phenotypically normal ductal epithelium normal values were found for 20q13 copy number by FISH (n=2) and CGH (n=5). Although the number of cases presented here is small, our results suggest that mutations in the 20q13.2 region in IH may be associated with accelerated proliferation and hyperplasia of the ductal epithelium. Progression to DCIS and ICD is accompanied by a further increase in the 20q13.2 copy number.

    Description / Table of Contents: Summary The histopathological classification of chronic myeloproliferative disorders can be supported by applying cytogenetics and molecular genetics to the analysis of bone marrow or blood cells, as demonstrated in 253 cases evaluated. The Philadelphia translocation (9;22) is the most important genetic parameter, being specific for chronic myeloid leukemia. Conventional methods for the detection of the t(9;22) are karyotyping and Southern blot analysis of the bcr gene. The newly established technique of fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) allows visualization of bcr-abl fusion even in non dividing cells. Molecular cytogenetics for t(9;22) yield results that are rapid and reliable as well as easily quantifiable.
    Notes: Zusammenfassung Zytogenetische und molekulargenetische Untersuchungen von Knochenmark- oder Blutzellen sind für die histopathologische Klassifikation der chronischen myeloproliferativen Erkrankungen hilfreich, was durch die simultane Auswertung von 253 Fällen gezeigt wird. Insbesondere die Analyse der Philadelphia-Translokation (9;22) ist dabei für die Bestätigung oder den Ausschluß einer chronischen myeloischen Leukämie wichtig. Für den Nachweis der t(9;22) stehen die konventionelle Karyotypisierung mit Bestimmung des Philadelphia-Chromosoms und das Southernblotverfahren zur Analyse einer Umlagerung des bcr-Gens zur Verfügung. Durch die neuere Methode der Fluoreszenz-in-situ-Hybridisierung (FISH) kann auch eine bcr-abl-Fusion an Interphasekernen dargestellt werden. Diese molekulare Zytogenetik ist ein rasches und zuverlässiges Verfahren zum Nachweis der Philadelphia-Translokation, das zudem leicht quantifizierbare Ergebnisse liefert.
