  1. Application of FISH in hematologic malignancies Dr Edmond S K Ma Department of Pathology Hong Kong Sanatorium & Hospital BTG 2013

  2. Molecular Cytogenetics • The utilization of techniques based on fluorescence in-situ hybridization in which DNA probes are labelled with different fluorochromes to map one or more specific regions of the genome • Bridges cytogenetics and molecular genetics • Techniques: • FISH • CGH • 24-colour karyotyping (M-FISH / SKY) • Array CGH BTG 2013

  3. Any role for FISH in the post-genomic era? • Manageable by routine diagnostic laboratories • Answer to specific clinical questions • Practical advantages • Numerical abnormality • Multiple fusion partners • Breakpoint heterogeneity • Applicable to many specimen types BTG 2013

  4. Probes Chromosome enumeration Locus specific Orange signal: chr 1; Green signal: chr 7 BCR-ABL dual colour dual fusion Multicolour FISH Chromosome painting der(9) dic(14;22)der(22)

  5. FISH as an investigative tool in haematological malignancies • Detection of numerical and structural abnormalities in interphase and metaphase cells • Characterization of marker chromosomes • Detection of cryptic translocation • Usually detected by CG • Not usually detected by CG • Lineage involvement by the neoplastic clone • Disease monitoring after treatment • Chimerism study post-sex-mismatched BMT BTG 2013

  6. From Ma, Wan & Chan. Cancer Reviews Asia-Pacific 2: 131 – 141, 2004

  7. Acute promyelocytic leukaemia (APL) with unusual CG Wan TS et al, Cancer Genet Cytogenet 121: 90 – 3, 2000 BTG 2013

  8. Wan TS et al, Cancer Genet Cytogenet 121: 90 – 3, 2000

  9. Cryptic insertion of BCR at 9q34 in CML D-FISH: 1R2G1F pattern D-FISH S-FISH ES-FISH Wan TS et al, Leukemia 18: 161 – 2, 2004

  10. Chimerism status by XY-FISH BTG 2013

  11. Chronic myeloid leukaemia post-BMT donor relapse BTG 2013

  12. FISH: some advantages • Genetic abnormality measurable in dividing and non-dividing cells • Covers CG failure • Covers mature B-cell disorders • Applicable to many specimen types • Applicable to heterogeneous breakpoints or multiple translocation partners • Quantitative • Standardization • Nomenclature (ISCN), criteria for interpretation and proficiency testing BTG 2013

  13. MLL probe for rearrangement BTG 2013

  14. Characterization of chromosome 11q deletion Ma SK et al, Leukemia 16: 953 – 955, 2002 BTG 2013

  15. Southern Blot hybridization for MLL rearrangement Ma SK et al, Leukemia 16: 953 – 955, 2002 BTG 2013

  16. Caveats of FISH analysis • No global view of chromosomal complement • Requires clinicopathological or prior cytogenetics information • Issues related to analytical sensitivity and probe specificity • Susceptibility to artifacts • Cannot detect minute aberrations (< 20 kb) • Aneuploidy versus amplification BTG 2013
