PG - 109-16 AB - We investigated relationships between DNA copy number aberrations and chromosomal structural rearrangements in 11 different cell lines derived from oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) by comparative genomic hybridization (CGH), spectral karyotyping (SKY), and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). CGH frequently showed recurrent chromosomal gains of 5p, 20q12, 8q23 approximately qter, 20p11 approximately p12, 7p15, 11p13 approximately p14, and 14q21, as well as losses of 4q, 18q, 4p11 approximately p15, 19p13, 8p21 approximately pter, and 16p11 approximately p12. SKY identified the following recurrent chromosomal abnormalities: i(5)(p10), i(5)(q10), i(8)(q10), der(X;1)(q10;p10), der(3;5)(p10;p10), and der(3;18)(q10;p10). In addition, breakpoints detected by SKY were clustered in 11q13 and around centromeric regions, including 5p10/q10, 3p10/q10, 8p10/q10 14q10, 1p10/1q10, and 16p10/16q10. Cell lines with i(5)(p10) and i(8)(q10) showed gains of the entire chromosome arms of 5p and 8q by CGH. Moreover, breakages near the centromeres of chromosomes 5 and 8 may be associated with 5p gain, 8q gain, and 8p loss in OSCC. FISH with a DNA probe from a BAC clone mapping to 5p15 showed a significant correlation between the average numbers of i(5)(p10) and 5p15 (R(2) = 0.8693, P< 0.01) in these cell lines, indicating that DNA copy number of 5p depends upon isochromosome formation in OSCC.
