3 Overview - Chromosomes in human tumors are widely abnormal: David von Hansemann 1890: nuclear and mitotic abnormalities in tumors Boveri 1914: Chromosome abnormalities play a central role in transformaton - Controversy: Early 1950s Whether the chromosome changes are primary events or merely secondary phenomena? - Changed view: Recurring chromosome aberrations associated with leukemia, lymphoma, sarcoma, carcinoma Proto-oncogenes identified at the breakpoints Experimental evidence for these genes in transformation Targeted drugs that inhibit gene product: e.g. STI571 for BCR-ABL September 24, 2018 Page 3

4 Methods of Chromosome Preparations Actively dividing cells can be arrested at metaphase or prometaphase stages using mitotic arresting agegns (eg. Colcemid) Direct preparations or short-term cultures to represent in vivo conditions Hypotonic treatment & fixation A variety of methods: Giemsa-banding FISH (Fluorescence in situ hybridization) Probes to detect translocations, inversions, deletions, amplification Chromosomal CGH, SKY, array CGH, Microarray September 24, 2018 Page 4
