PG - 442-6 LID - 10.1111/j.1600-0609.2011.01595.x [doi] AB - T(15;17) is the most common chromosomal aberration in patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL), leading to the formation of PML-RARalpha fusion gene. In a small subset of patients with APL, the RARalpha gene is fused with different partners. Here, we report a rare APL case with STAT5B-RARalpha fusion transcript. Cytomorphologic and immunophenotypic analyses showed typical features of APL. However, cytogenetic analysis showed normal karyotype, and interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) showed PML-RARalpha negative. Quantitative RT-PCR also showed PML-RARalpha negative but STAT5B-RARalpha positive and sequencing analysis confirmed the result. Molecular markers including FLT3, NPM1, c-Kit and C/EBPalpha mutation were all negative. To our knowledge, this is the first APL patient with STAT5B-RARalpha in Chinese population and the fifth patient around the world according to published paper. CI - (c) 2011 John Wiley & Sons A/S.
