Abstract

Review on inv(3)(p24q26), with data on clinics, and the genes involved.

Clinics and Pathology

Noted

Ten cases available, but with almost no data (Haferlach et al., 2012).

Phenotype stem cell origin

Out of ten cases, there were eight acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cases, and two myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS)

Epidemiology

inv(3)(p24q26) represented about 1% of a cohort of 606 AML and 377 MDS patients with normal karyotypes (n = 594) or chromosome 7 alterations (-7/7q-; n = 389). Median age was 60 years (range 20-76)

Cytogenetics

Cryptic rearrangement.

Prognosis

Survival outcomes in 22 patients with cryptic MECOM rearrangements (inv(3)(p24q26), t(3;21)(q26;q11), and der(7)t(3;7)(q26;q21) altogether) and were compared with inv(3)(q21q26)/t(3;3)(q21;q26) cases. Median overall survival was 9.4 months in the subgroup with cryptic MECOM rearrangements which was not significantly different from the 21.8 months in patients with an inv(3)(q21q26)/t(3;3)(q21;q26)

Genes Involved and Proteins

Note
The partner of MECOM is unknown.
Gene name
MECOM (Ecotropic Viral Integration Site 1 (EVI1) and Myelodysplastic Syndrome 1 (MDS1-EVI1)
Location
3q26.2
Note
MECOM is a nuclear transcription factor that plays an essential role in the proliferation and maintenance of hematopoietic stem cells and can inhibit myeloid differentiation. Two alternative forms exists, one generated from EVI1, the other MECOM (MDS1 and EVI1 complex locus) through intergenic splicing with MDS1 (myelodysplasia syndrome 1), a gene located 140 kb upstream of EVI1.
Protein description
The protein encoded by this gene is a transcriptional regulator involved in cell differentiation and proliferation, and apoptosis. The encoded protein can interact with transcriptional coactivators (P/CAF, CBP) and corepressors (CTBP1, HDAC) as well as other transcription factors (GATA1, Smad3) (de Braekeleer et al., 2012)

Result of the Chromosomal Anomaly

Oncogenesis

Increased MECOM expression was noted.
