Transient leukemoid proliferation of the cytogenetically unbalanced +21 cell line of a constitutional mosaic boy.

چکیده
A newborn without any signs of Down's syndrome was found to have an acute proliferation that remitted without drug therapy. Chromosomal analysis of blood, bone marrow, and skin cells revealed that the child was a constitutional mosaic with normal cells and a low number of cells in which one no. 21 chromosome was replaced by a probably isochromosome for the no. 21 long arm: 46,XY/46,XY,i(21q). The abnormal cell line of the mosaic appeared to be selectively involved in this proliferation.

Characterization of a Rare Mosaicism in Autosomal Translocation of t(5;21) Using Conventional Cytogenetics and FISH Methods
Background: Mosaicism of a normal cell population and an unbalanced autosomal chromosome rearrangement is rarely seen. If the abnormal cell line contributes to a minor part of soma, the phenotype is expected to be normal. Case Report: We report a 29-year-old woman who had balance chromosomal translocation of 46,XX,t(5;21) with a 2-year-old affected girl, characterized by mental retardation, dys...
متن کاملTurner Syndrome: A Unique Mosaic Case with 45,X/47,XX,+21/46,XX Cell Lines
We report an extremely rare case of Turner syndrome mosaicism in a 30-year-old woman. At least 100 metaphases were observed and analyzed through GTG banding with over 550 band resolutions observed. G-banded chromosome analysis revealed a mosaic female karyotype involving 3 different cell lines. One cell line (90% of the analyzed metaphases) presented monosomy X, while 6% of the cells showed tri...

The indications and results of cytogenetic analysis of 521 amniotic cell cultures performed at 13-16 weeks of gestation were evaluated in this study. 507 fetuses (97.3%) were cytogenetically normal, 14 (2.7%) had unbalanced karyotypes, and 2 fetuses were found to have major abnormalities, one with anencephaly detected by measurement of alpha -fetoprotein levels in amniotic fluid and ultraso...
متن کاملEffect of Estradiol on miR-21; miR-155 Expression in promyelocytic leukemia-derived cell line NB4
Background: Due to the estrogen participation in modulating the proliferation and commitment of stem cells and the effects of miR-21 and miR-155 expression on reduced proliferation and colony formation of acute myeloid leukemia (AML), the aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of estradiol on expression of miR-21 and miR-155 in the NB4 cell line, as an acute promyelocytic leukemia ...
متن کاملFast Transient Hybrid Neuro Fuzzy Controller for STATCOM During Unbalanced Voltage Sags
A static synchronous compensator (STATCOM) is generally used to regulate voltage and improve transient stability in transmission and distribution networks. This is achieved by controlling reactive power exchange between STATCOM and the grid. Unbalanced sags are the most common type of voltage sags in distribution networks. A static synchronous compensator (STATCOM) is generally used to maintain...
