Chromosome 3q21 abnormalities associated with hyperactive thrombopoiesis in acute blastic transformation of chronic myeloid leukemia

R Bernstein, A Bagg, M Pinto, D Lewis and B Mendelow

Two patients with acute blastic transformation of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) associated with strikingly elevated platelet counts showed abnormalities of chromosome 3q in addition to the standard Philadelphia (Ph1) chromosome translocation. The first patient had an inversion of chromosome 3 (q21q26) cytologically identical to an inversion 3 previously reported in de novo acute megakaryoblastic leukemia, and the second patient showed a translocation between chromosome 3q and the chromosome 9 homologue not involved in the Ph1 translocation, [t(3;9)(q21;q34)]. Previous studies had incriminated either 3q21 or 3q26 as the locus for a regulatory thrombopoietic gene, but the current study suggests that 3q21 is the relevant site.
