| Comments |
| A review of the literature revealed six reports of inv(8)(p11q13) associated with AML M4 or M5 all involving female patients ages 10 months, 15, 19, 21, 29, and 56 years old (References 1-6, 8-9). This is the first report of inv(8)(p11.2q13) associated with AML M4 in a male patient and older than 56 years. The inversion causes the fusion of the MOZ gene at 8p11.2 with TIF2 at 8q13. Deguchi et al described the requirement for C2HC nucleosome recognition of MOZ and the CBP recruitment activity of TIF2 for transformation leading to leukemogenesis. The propensity of affected females requires further investigation, but may just be a bias in the literature (Reference 7). |
