Abstract:
:Ovarian cancer represents the leading cause of death among patients with gynecological cancer. The genetic changes underlying the initiation and progression of ovarian cancer have not been well defined. However, non-random structural chromosomal changes have been identified with common chromosomal breakpoints. We have studied cytogenetically 15 cases of ovarian adenocarcinomas by a direct culture of cancer cells and a G-banding technique investigating the presence of recurrent structural aberrations with common chromosomal breakpoints. Among very complex structural rearrangements found, we could recognize recurrent structural aberrations involving according to frequency chromosomal regions 3p13-14, 11p15, 19q13, 3q21, 11q23, 11q10, 1p13, 1p36, and 17q24-25. Isochromosomes i(5p), i(17q), i(8q) and i(11q) were also observed. Isochromosome i(5p), rarely reported in ovarian cancer was found in seven cases suggesting that it may be a novel recurrent abnormality. Translocations t(1;11), t(3;19), t(3;17), t(7;11) and t(11;17) were also identified. Conventional cytogenetics continues to be valuable detecting the presence of non-random chromosomal breakpoints and facilitating the identification of genes implicated in tumorigenesis.
