| ICD-Morpho | 9920/3 Therapy-related myeloid neoplasms |
| Atlas_Id | 1182 |
| Clinics and Pathology |
| Disease | acute myeloid leukemia (AML) secondary to toxic exposure |
| Note | only one case, but with features identical to 2 other cases: one case of t(1;21)(p36;q22), and one case of t(18;21)(q21;q22) |
| Phenotype / cell stem origin | M2-AML |
| Etiology | about 50 years after radiation exposure from nuclear explosion |
| Clinics | pancytopenia preceeded leukemia |
| Evolution | complete remission was obtained and the patient returned to the previous pancytopenia; subsequent relapse occurred |
| Genes involved and Proteins |
| Gene Name | AMP19 (AML1 partner from chromosome 19) |
| Location | 19q13.4 |
| Gene Name | RUNX1 (runt-related transcription factor 1 (acute myeloid leukemia 1; aml1 oncogene)) |
| Location | 21q22.12 |
| Dna / Rna | transcription is from telomere to centromere |
| Protein | contains a Runt domain and, in the C-term, a transactivation domain; forms heterodimers; widely expressed; nuclear localisation; transcription factor (activator) for various hematopoietic-specific genes |
| Result of the chromosomal anomaly |
| Description | AMP-19 is fused to AML1 out of frame |
| Description | truncated AML1 with the DNA binding domain, but not a transcriptional activation region |
| Oncogenesis | could function as a dominant negative inhibitor of normal AML1 |
| To be noted |
| Additional cases are needed to delineate the epidemiology of this rare entity: you are welcome to submit a paper to our new Case Report section. |
