Article Abstract
A reciprocal translocation, t(10;22)(q22;q11), resulting in a masked Ph chromosome was identified in a patient diagnosed with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). Both homologs of chromosome 9 were of the normal pattern. Two signals for the ABL probe, both of them hybridized to chromosome 9, were demonstrated via fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). Furthermore, cohybridization with two differently labeled BCR/ABL translocation DNA probes indicated a BCR/ABL fusion apparently located on 9q34. Molecular studies revealed a rearrangement of the BCR region and expression of a chimeric BCR/ABL mRNA of CML configuration. These findings indicate that the BCR/ABL fusion resulted from an unusual relocation of the BCR gene from its normal position on 22q11 to 9q34 adjacent to the ABL gene.

Despite the study of BCR::ABL1-positive and -negative myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) providing seminal insights into cancer biology, tumor evolution and precision oncology over the past half century, significant challenges remain. MPNs are clonal hematopoietic stem cell-derived neoplasms with heterogenous clinical phenotypes and a clonal architecture which impacts the often-complex underlying genetics and microenvironment. The major driving molecular abnormalities have been well characterized, but debate on their role as disease-initiating molecular lesions continues.

Overexpression of the myeloid Src-family kinases Fgr and Hck has been linked to the development of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Here we characterized the contribution of active forms of these kinases to AML cell cytokine dependence, inhibitor sensitivity, and AML cell engraftment in vivo. The human TF-1 erythroleukemia cell line was used as a model system as it does not express endogenous Hck or Fgr.

Article Synopsis
- The objective of the study was to harvest primary Philadelphia chromosome-positive (Ph) cells from B-acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) and create a B-ALL mouse model.
- Methods included infecting bone marrow cells from C57BL/6J mice with a retrovirus, followed by the transplantation of transfected cells into irradiated mice, resulting in the establishment of multiple generations of Ph cells.
- The results showed significant health deterioration in the mice post-transplant, with pathological features such as weight loss and leukemic cell infiltration in the liver, confirming the successful creation of a B-ALL mouse model through progressive passages of Ph cells.

Introduction: The emergence of mutations in the BCR::ABL1 kinase domain (KD) impairs imatinib mesylate (IM) binding capacity, thus contributing to IM resistance. Identification of these mutations is important for treatment decisions and precision medicine in chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML) patients. Our study aims to determine the frequency of BCR::ABL1 KD mutations in CML patients with IM resistance.
