Descripción : | This study was conducted to determine the frequency of the most common fusion genes in Mexican pediatric patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Molecular analysis using RT-PCR was carried out in 53-blood samples: 52 patients with de novo ALL and one with relapsed ALL. The ETV6-RUNX1 fusion was found in 7 cases (13.5%), BCR-ABL fusion was detected in 2 cases (3.8%), and 6 patients (11.5%) expressed the chimeric gene E2A-PBX1. The prevalence of E2A-PBX1 is one of the highest that has been described thus far in childhood ALL. Furthermore, we detected both the BCR-ABL, and E2A-PBX1 fusion in the relapsed patient. With regards to the immunophenotype, ETV6-RUNX1 was expressed in both pre-B and T-cell cases, while the presence of E2A-PBX1 and BCR-ABL was associated with the pre-B ALL phenotype. The prevalence of E2A-PBX1 in Mexican pediatric cases supports the existence of ethnic differences in the frequency of molecular markers of ALL. © 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved. |
