| Atlas_Id | 1204 |
| Clinics and Pathology |
| Disease | chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) in transformation, myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), acute non lymphocytic leukemai (AML), B and T- acute lymphocytic leukemias (ALL) |
| Cytogenetics |
| Additional anomalies | no consistent additional abnormalities |
| Genes involved and Proteins |
| Gene Name | ETV6 (ets variant 6) |
| Location | 12p13.2 |
| Gene Name | CDX2 (caudal-related homeobox 2) |
| Location | 13q12.2 |
| To be noted |
| The t(12;13) is heterogeneous at the molecular level. A single case of AML has been reported with an ETV6-CDX2 fusion and ectopic expression of normal CDX2 but in the same study two other t(12;13) positive AML patients did not have CDX2 involvement. FISH analysis has suggested that the chromosome 13 breakpoints are different in myeloid and lymphoid disease. ETV6 seems to be involved in some cases but not others. Additional cases with charaterization of the genes involved in the translocation, are therefore needed to delineate the epidemiology of this rare entity: you are welcome to submit a paper to our new Case Report section. |
