An acquired high-risk chromosome instability phenotype in multiple myeloma: Jumping 1q Syndrome

Abstract excerpt

Patients with multiple myeloma (MM) accumulate adverse copy number aberrations (CNAs), gains of 1q21, and 17p deletions during disease progression. A subset of these patients develops heightened 1q12 pericentromeric instability and jumping translocations of 1q12 (JT1q12), evidenced by increased copy CNAs of 1q21 and losses in receptor chromosomes (RC). To understand the progression of these aberrations we...
