Clinics and Pathology
Disease
B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) with hypereosinophilia
Phenotype stem cell origin
CD19+, CD10+ ALL; eosinophils are not part of the leukemic cells and do not carry the t(5;14); they represent a reactive population (eosinophilia in association with ALL is usually reactive)
Epidemiology
rarely described; 6M/1F; affects both children and adults, general features of ALL with hypereosinophilia are rarity, male predominance; and young age
Cytology
marked eosinophilia; basophilia; IL3 is over-expressed
Prognosis
prognosis appears to be poor, a feature of ALLs with hypereosinophilia
Genes Involved and Proteins
Gene name
IL3 (interleukin-3)
Location
5q31.1
Protein description
152 amino acids; growth factor; colony stimulating factor involved in the survival, proliferation and differentiation of multipotent hematopoietic cells
Gene name
IGH (Immunoglobulin Heavy)
Location
14q32.33
Result of the Chromosomal Anomaly
Description
break in the promoter region of IL3 and in the Jh region of IgH
Expression localisation
the immunoglobulin gene promoter controls the expression of IL3
Oncogenesis
over-expression of IL3
