Dataset Information

Single nucleotide polymorphism array lesions, TET2, DNMT3A, ASXL1 and CBL mutations are present in systemic mastocytosis.

ABSTRACT: We hypothesized that analysis of single nucleotide polymorphism arrays (SNP-A) and new molecular defects may provide new insight in the pathogenesis of systemic mastocytosis (SM). SNP-A karyotyping was applied to identify recurrent areas of loss of heterozygosity and bidirectional sequencing was performed to evaluate the mutational status of TET2, DNMT3A, ASXL1, EZH2, IDH1/IDH2 and the CBL gene family. Overall survival (OS) was analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method. We studied a total of 26 patients with SM. In 67% of SM patients, SNP-A karyotyping showed new chromosomal abnormalities including uniparental disomy of 4q and 2p spanning TET2/KIT and DNMT3A. Mutations in TET2, DNMT3A, ASXL1 and CBL were found in 23%, 12%, 12%, and 4% of SM patients, respectively. No mutations were observed in EZH2 and IDH1/IDH2. Significant differences in OS were observed for SM mutated patients grouped based on the presence of combined TET2/DNMT3A/ASXL1 mutations independent of KIT (P = 0.04) and sole TET2 mutations (P<0.001). In conclusion, TET2, DNMT3A and ASXL1 mutations are also present in mastocytosis and these mutations may affect prognosis, as demonstrated by worse OS in mutated patients.

Project description:Acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) is a heterogeneous disease characterized by myeloid progenitor cells uncontrolled proliferation gradually replacing normal hematopoiesis. To evaluate Ten Eleven Translocation 2 gene (TET2) single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) (rs2454206, rs34402524, rs61744960) in AML, and chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) in relation to their disease prognostic criteria. The study included 136 subjects; 52 AML, 54 CML and 30 subjects as control group matched for age and sex. Routine investigations including CBC, bone marrow aspiration, flow cytometry biochemical investigations and cytogenetics and molecular study were performed accordingly. DNA extraction and SNP assay for TET2 gene polymorphism was done using (Thermo-Fisher predesigned SNP, USA) PCR prism 7500. The mean age was 43.4 ± 14.0 years in AML patients, 45.98 ± 15.7 years in CML patients and 39.3 ± 6.587 years in control group (p > 0.05). The frequency of TET2 SNP rs 34402524 ranged from heterozygous to homozygous in both AML (46%, 54%) and CML (48%, 46.2%) groups but was mainly homozygous among the control (80%) group (p = 0.012). TET2 SNP rs 2454206 was mainly wild in CML (65.4%) and control (63.3%) groups compared to AML as wild was only in (46%) and heterozygous in (44%) with only 10% being homozygous (p = 0.046). TET2 SNP rs 61744960 showed a homozygous pattern among all three group (AML CML and control) showing no statistical significance (p = 0.528). Eventhough, higher non responders to treatment were among homozygous and heterozygous groups yet, response to therapy as respect to specific TET2 SNP showed no significant variation (p > 0.05). TET2 SNP in CML cases did not alter the prognostic criteria as no statistical significance was noted (p > 0.05) except for TET2 SNP rs 34402524 where homozygous cases had larger spleen size (p = 0.019). TET2 SNP is common in Egyptian myeloid neoplasm. This is the first study in this field and further studies are recommended to investigate TET2 and relation to other hematological malignancies and leukemogenesis transformation.
