The gene encoding for transcription factor ETV6 presents recurrent lesions in hematologic neoplasms, most notably the ETV6-RUNX1 rearrangement in childhood B-ALL. The role of ETV6 for normal hematopoiesis is unknown, but loss of its function probably participates in oncogenic procedures. In myeloid neoplasms, ETV6-locus (12p13) deletions are rare but recurrent; ETV6 translocations are even rarer, but those reported seem to have phenotype-defining consequences.

[From "monocolor" karyotype to "multicolor" karyotype: applications of M-Fish in hematology and oncology].

Bull Cancer

February 2002

Service de cytogénétique médicale, Faculté de Médecine, BP 38, 63001 Clermont-Ferrand Cedex, France.

Since the establishment of human karyotype in 1956, human cytogenetic has quickly progressed. The description of the Philadelphia chromosome in 1960 led up to new applications of cytogenetic in the fields of hematology and oncology. The initial techniques allowed only uniform staining of chromosomes, limiting the detection of most structural rearrangements.

The authors describe a case they have personally seen of pure gonadal dysgenesis with caryotype 46 XY (Swyers' syndrome) in which they found absence of HY antigen. They analysed the descriptions in the literature about this syndrome and show how this antigen is responsible for testicular differentiation. They show the place this syndrome has in the group of syndromes of bands and once again draw attention that there is a great risk of gonadoblastoma development when the Y chromosome is present and especially when the HY antigen is present.
