Introduction. Numerical aberrations (whole chromosomal aneuploidy) have been considered one of the most important factors leading to implantation failure and early miscarriages in patients undergoing assisted reproductive procedures. Embryo selection is mainly based on morphological assessment; however, embryos produced from aneuploid gametes cannot be distinguished from euploid based on morphological characteristics. Detection of aneuploidy in human embryos. Thanks to the introduction of molecular-genetic screening of embryos, it is possible to identify aneuploid embryos via preimplantation genetic screening/diagnosis and thus select the best embryos based on their ploidy. Array comparative genomic hybridization is a molecular technique which allows ploidy analysis of the entire genome amplification from a single cell, within 24 hours after polar body, blastomere or trophectoderm cell biopsy. Trophectoderm cell biopsy is considered the most reliable screening approach given the lower mosaicism appearance at the blastocyst stage. Conclusion. This paper points to the importance and necessity of molecular analysis in embryo selection. Further investigations and improvements are required, because this technology has only recently become available in clinical practice in the in vitro fertilization procedure.

Gains And Losses

Clonal chromosomal changes in multiple myeloma (MM) and related disorders are not well defined, mainly due to the low in vivo and in vitro mitotic index of plasma cells. This difficulty can be overcome by using comparative genomic hybridization (CGH), a DNA-based technique that gives information about chromosomal copy number changes in tumors. We have performed CGH on 25 cases of MM, 4 cases of monoclonal gammopathy of uncertain significance, and 1 case of Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia. G-banding analysis of the same group of patients demonstrated clonal chromosomal changes in only 13 (43%), whereas by CGH, the number of cases with clonal chromosomal gains and losses increased to 21 (70%). The most common recurrent changes detected by CGH were gain of chromosome 19 or 19p and complete or partial deletions of chromosome 13. +19, an anomaly that has so far not been detected as primary or recurrent change by G-banding analysis of these tumors, was noted in 2 cases as a unique change. Other recurrent changes included gains of 9q, 11q, 12q, 15q, 17q, and 22q and losses of 6q and 16q. We have been able to narrow the commonly deleted regions on 6q and 13q to bands 6q21 and 13q14-21. Gain of 11q and deletion of 13q, which have previously been associated with poor outcome, can thus be detected by CGH, allowing the use of this technique for prognostic evaluation of patients, without relying on the success of conventional cytogenetic analysis.

Chromosome Banding Analysis

Abstract In AML karyotype abnormalities are not detected in 40 to 45% of cases using classical chromosome banding analysis. For several reasons false negative results might occur in chromosome banding analysis: 1. no proliferation of the aberrant clone in vitro, 2. low resolution due to technical problems or limitations of the method itself, 3. real cryptic rearrangements. In order to determine the proportion of “false negative” karyotypes by chromosome banding analysis we conducted a study using interphase-FISH and comparative genomic hybridization in addition to chromosome banding analysis. In total, chromosome banding analysis have been performed in 3849 AML at diagnosis. Of these 1748 showed a normal karyotype (45.4%). Out of these in 3 cases cytomorphology revealed an APL and in 2 cases an AML M4eo. Using interphase FISH with a PML-RARA or CBFB probe we detected cryptic PML-RARA or CBFB-rearrangements, respectively, in all 5 cases, which were cytogenetically invisible due to submicroscopic insertions. 480 cases of AML with normal karyotype were analyzed for MLL gene rearrangements using FISH with an MLL-probe. 11 cases with a cryptic MLL-rearrangement were detected (FAB-subtypes: M5a: 7, M2: 2, M0: 2). In 273 patients interphase-FISH screening with probes for ETO, ABL, ETV6, RB, P53, AML1 and BCR was performed. In 6 out of 273 (2.2%) pts an abnormality was detectable. In two cases the aberrant clone did not proliferate in vitro: 1 case each with monosomy and trisomy 13. Due to limitations of resolution in chromosome banding analysis translocations or deletions of very small chromosome fragments were only detected with FISH in n=4 cases (ETV6 rearrangements: t(11;12)(q24;p13), t(12;22)(p13;q12), ETV6 deletions: del(12)(p13), n=2). Like interphase-FISH comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) does not rely on proliferating tumor cells but in contrast to interphase-FISH allows the detection of all genomic imbalances and not only of selected genomic regions. Therefore, we selected 48 cases with normal karyotype and low in vitro proliferation (less than 15 analyzable metaphases in chromosome banding analysis). In 8 of 48 cases (16.7%) an aberrant CGH-pattern was identified which was verified using interphase-FISH with suitable probes. In 3 cases a typical pattern of chromosomal gains and losses observed in complex aberrant karyotypes was detected. In one case each a trisomy 4 and 13 was observed, respectively. In one case trisomy 13 was accompanied by gain of material of the long arm of chromosome 11 (11q11 to 11q23). One case each showed loss of chromosome 19 and gain of the long arm of chromosome 10, respectively. In conclusion, CGH in combination with interphase-FISH using probes for the detection of balanced rearrangements is a powerful technique for identifying prognostically relevant karyotype abnormalities in AML assigned to normal karyotype by chromosome banding analysis. Especially this is true in cases with a low yield of metaphases and in AML with a high probability of carrying a specific, cytogenetically cryptic fusion-gene. Thus, in these cases interphase-FISH and CGH should be performed in a diagnostic setting to classify and stratify patients best.
