AB  - Fanconi anemia is rare inherited disease characterized by wide spectrum of congenital anomalies, progressive pancytopenia, and predisposition to hematological malignancies and solid tumors. Molecular genetic analysis of mutations in FANC genes is of a great importance for diagnosis confirmation, prenatal and carrier testing, as well as for prediction of chemotherapy outcome and disease complications. In this study we performed screening of frequently affected regions of FANCD2 gene for sequence variants in six unrelated FA-D2 patients in Serbia. This is the first molecular analysis of FANCD2 gene in Serbian FA-D2 patients. A total of 10 sequence variants were detected, one in homozygous, and nine in heterozygous state. Two variants were found within exons, and eight within introns, in deep intronic regions. In-silico analysis showed that among all detected variants one exon variant and three intron variants might have impact on splicing mechanism. Heterozygous variants found in intron 3, c. 206-246delG; exon 26, c. 2396 C GT A and intron 28, c. 2715+573 C GT T were not previously reported. In-silico analysis revealed that among them, two (intron 3, c. 206-246 delG and exon 26, c. 2396 C GT A) could be novel disease-causing mutations. Many variants were found in more than one patient, including those unreported, indicating their possible ethnic association. Great number of variants in some patients suggests their non-random emergence in Fanconi anemia pathway.

AB  - Background: Fanconi anemia (FA) is a chromosomal instability syndrome characterized by increased frequency of chromosomal breakages, chromosomal radial figures and accelerated telomere shortening. In this work we performed detailed molecular-cytogenetic characterization of breakpoints in primary lymphocytes of FA-D2 patients in different stages of the disease using fluorescent in situ hybridization. Results: We found that chromosomal breakpoints co-localize on the molecular level with common fragile sites, whereas their distribution pattern depends on the severity of the disease. Telomere quantitative fluorescent in situ hybridization revealed that telomere fusions and radial figures, especially radials which involve telomere sequences are the consequence of critically shortened telomeres that increase with the disease progression and could be considered as a predictive parameter during the course of the disease. Sex chromosomes in FA cells are also involved in radial formation indicating that specific X chromosome regions share homology with autosomes and also could serve as repair templates in resolving DNA damage. Conclusions: FA-D2 chromosomal breakpoints co-localize with common fragile sites, but their distribution pattern depends on the disease stage. Telomere fusions and radials figures which involve telomere sequences are the consequence of shortened telomeres, increase with disease progression and could be of predictive value.

AB  - Deletions within chromosome 11q22-23, are considered among the most common chromosomal aberrations in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), and are associated with a poor outcome. In addition to the ataxia telangiectasia mutated (ATM) gene, the baculoviral IAP repeat-containing 3 (BIRC3) gene is also located in the region. BIRC3 encodes a negative regulator of the non-canonical nuclear factor.-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NF-kappa B) protein. Disruption of BIRC3 is known to be restricted to CLL fludarabine-refractory patients. The aim of the present study was to determine the frequency of copy number changes of BIRC3 and to assess its association with two known predictors of negative CLL outcome, ATM and tumor protein 53 (TP53) gene deletions. To evaluate the specificity of BIRC3 alterations to CLL, BIRC3 copy numbers were assessed in 117 CLL patients in addition to 45 B-cell acute lymphocytic leukemia (B-ALL) patients. A commercially available multiplex ligation dependent probe amplification kit, which includes four probes for the detection of TP53 and four probes for ATM gene region, was applied. Interphase-directed fluorescence in situ hybridization was used to apply commercially available probes for BIRC3, ATM and TP53. High resolution array-comparative genomic hybridization was conducted in selected cases. Genetic abnormalities of BIRC3 were detected in 23/117 (similar to 20%) of CLL and 2/45 (similar to 4%) of B-ALL cases. Overall, 20 patients with CLL and 1 with B-ALL possessed a BIRC3 deletion, whilst 3 patients with CLL and 1 with B-ALL harbored a BIRC3 duplication. All patients with an ATM deletion also carried a BIRC3 deletion. Only 2 CLL cases possessed deletions in BIRC3, ATM and TP53 simultaneously. Evidently, the deletion or duplication of BIRC3 may be observed rarely in B-ALL patients. BIRC3 duplication may occur in CLL patients, for which the prognosis requires additional studies in the future. The likelihood that TP53 deletions occur simultaneously with BIRC3 and/or ATM aberrations is low. However, as ATM deletions may, but not always, associate with BIRC3 deletions, each region should be considered in the future diagnostics of CLL in order to aid treatment decisions, notably whether to treat with or without fludarabine.

AB  - Fanconi anemia (FA) is a rare genetically heterogeneous disorder associated with bone marrow failure, birth defects and cancer susceptibility. Apart from the disease-causing mutations in FANC genes, the identification of specific DNA variations, such as single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), in other candidate genes may lead to a better clinical description of this condition enabling individualized treatment with improvement of the prognosis. In this study, we have assessed 95 SNPs located in 52 key genes involved in base excision repair (BER), nucleotide excision repair (NER), mismatch repair (MMR), double strand break (DSB) repair and cell cycle control using a DNA repair chip (Asper Biotech, Estonia) which includes most of the common variants for the candidate genes. The SNP genotyping was performed in five FA-D2 patients and in one FA-A patient. The polymorphisms studied were synonymous (n=10), nonsynonymous (missense) (n=52) and in non-coding regions of the genome (introns and 5 and 3 untranslated regions (UTR)) (n=33). Polymorphisms found at the homozygous state are selected for further analysis. Our results have shown a significant inter-individual variability among patients in the type and the frequency of SNPs and also elucidate the need for further studies of polymorphisms located in ATM, APEX APE 1, XRCC1, ERCC2, MSH3, PARP4, NBS1, BARD1, CDKN1B, TP53 and TP53BP1 which may be of great importance for better clinical description of FA. In addition, the present report recommends the use of SNPs as predictive and prognostic genetic markers to individualize therapy of FA patients.

AB  - Purpose: As the Fanconi anemia (FA) pathway is required for appropriate cell cycle progression through mitosis and the completion of cell division, the aim of the present study was to determine the destiny of FA cells after irradiation in vitro and to elucidate any difference in radiosensitivity between FA and control cells. Materials and methods: Analyses of phosphorylated histone H2AX (gamma-H2AX) foci, micronuclei formation and cell cycle analysis were performed in unirradiated (0 min) and irradiated primary FA fibroblasts and in a control group at different post-irradiation times (30 min, 2 h, 5 h and 24 h). Results: The accumulation of gamma-H2AX foci in irradiated FA fibroblasts was observed. At 24 h post-irradiation, 57% of FA cells were gamma-H2AX foci-positive, significantly higher than in the control (p LT 0.01). The cell cycle analysis has shown the transient G2/M arrest in irradiated FA fibroblasts. The portion of cells in the G2/M phase showed initial increase at 30 min post-irradiation and afterwards decreased over time reaching the pretreatment level 24 h after irradiation. Irradiated FA fibroblasts progressed to abnormal mitosis, as is shown by the production of cells with different nuclear morphologies from binucleated to multinucleated surrounded with micronuclei, and also by a high percentage of foci-positive micronuclei. The majority of radiation-induced micronuclei were gamma-H2AX foci-positive, indicating that radiation-induced micronuclei contain fragments of damaged chromosomes. In contrast, in the control group, most of the micronuclei were classified as gamma-H2AX foci-negative, which indicates that cells with unrepaired damage were blocked before entering mitosis. Conclusion: The results clearly indicate that mitotic catastrophe might be an important cell-death mechanism involved in the response of FA fibroblasts to ionizing radiation.

AB  - Fanconi anemia (FA) is a rare cancer-prone genetic disease characterized by impaired oxygen metabolism and defects in DNA damage repair. Response of FA cells to ionizing radiation has been an issue intensively debated in the literature. To study in vitro radiosensitivity in patients suffering from FA and their parents (heterozygous carriers), we determined radiation-induced leukocyte apoptosis using flow cytometry. As TP53 gene is involved in the control of apoptosis, we studied its status in FA lymphocytes using dual colour fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). FA patients and female heterozygous carriers display radiosensitive response to ionizing radiation seen as abnormal elimination of cells via apoptosis. By employment of FISH, the TP53 allele loss in FA lymphocytes was not observed. In diseases related to oxidative stress, determination of radiation-induced apoptosis is the method of choice for testing the radiosensitivity.

AB  - Fanconi anemia (FA) is a rare genetically heterogeneous disease characterized by developmental abnormalities, progressive bone marrow failure, and cancer susceptibility. We examined spontaneous, diepoxybutane (DEB)-induced and radiation-induced sister chromatid exchanges (SCEs) in wholeblood lymphocyte cultures of bone marrow failure (BMF) patients including Fanconi anemia, mothers of affected individuals, and healthy controls. The baseline frequency of SCE in FA cells was similar to that observed in controls. However, in response to DEB SCE frequencies in FA patients and their mothers were significantly increased compared to both non-FA BMF families and healthy controls. In response to ionizing radiation, cells displayed increased frequency of SCE, but no differences between FA patients and non-FA BMF patients were seen. Our data confirm and expand previous findings by showing that SCE induced by DEB can be used as an adjunct diagnostic test not only for FA patients, but also for female heterozygous carriers, at least for complementation groups FANCA and FANCD2.

AB  - In this paper we present the data of lymphocyte radiosensitivity testing used for characterization of radiosensitive cellular phenotype and diagnostics of ataxia-telangiectasia disease. We point out the advantage of lymphocyte micronucleus test (CBMN) over other cellular tests for assessment of radiosensitivity: the first advantage of CBMN is that primary patient cells are used (less than 1 ml), the second one is that the results of testing are obtained within 3 days and there is no need for establishing a patient-derived cell line, which requires additional time and application of more expensive methods. The third advantage of CBMN method is that it gives information about proliferative ability of cells, which can recognize dysfunctional ataxia-telangiectasia mutated protein. The results are fast and accurate in diagnostics of ataxia-telagiectasia diseases.

AB  - Fanconi anemia (FA) is a rare cancer-prone genetic disorder characterized by progressive bone marrow failure, chromosomal instability and redox abnormalities. There is much biochemical and genetic data, which strongly suggest that FA cells experience increased oxidative stress. The present study was designed to elucidate if differences in oxidant state exist between control, idiopathic bone marrow failure (idBMF) and FA cells, and to analyze oxidant state of cells in FA heterozygous carriers as well. The results of the present study confirm an in vivo prooxidant state of FA cells and clearly indicate that FA patients can be distinguished from idBMF patients based on the oxidant state of cells. Female carriers of FA mutation also exhibited hallmarks of an in vivo prooxidant state behaving in a similar manner as FA patients. On the other hand, the oxidant state of cells in FA male carriers and idBMF families failed to show any significant difference vs. controls. We demonstrate that the altered oxidant state influences susceptibility of cells to apoptosis in both FA patients and female carriers. The results highlight the need for further research of the possible role of mitochondrial inheritance in the pathogenesis of FA.

AB  - Among patients with bone marrow failure (BMF) syndrome, some are happened to have underlying Fanconi anemia (FA), a genetically heterogeneous disease, which is characterized by progressive pancytopenia and cancer susceptibility. Due to heterogeneous nature of the disease, a single genetic test, as in vitro response to DNA cross-linking agents, usually is not enough to make correct diagnosis. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether measuring repair kinetics of radiation-induced DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) can distinguish Fanconi anemia from other BMF patients. An early step in repair of DSBs is phosphorylation of the histone H2AX, generating gamma-H2AX histone, which extends over mega base-pair regions of DNA from the break site and is visualised as foci (gamma-H2AX foci) with specific antibodies. The primary fibroblasts, established from FA patients, were exposed to gamma-rays, a dose of 2 Gy (Co-60), incubated for up to 24 hours under repair-permissive conditions, and assayed for the level of gamma-H2AX foci and apoptosis at different recovery times after the treatment. Cell lines originating from FA patients displayed a significant delay in the repair of radiation-induced DNA DSBs relative to non-FA bone marrow failure (non-FA BMF) and control cell lines. The delay is especially evident at recovery time of 24 hours, and is seen as about 8-fold increase of residual gamma-H2AX foci compared to self-state before irradiation. The delay in repair kinetics of FA cells represents the unique feature of FA cellular phenotype, which should be exploited to distinguish FA cellular phenotype.

AB  - Fankonijeva anemija (FA) je genetičko oboljenje karakterisano progresivnom pancitopenijom i predispozicijom ka malignitetima. Asocirano je sa poremećajima u redoks procesima u ćeliji što ga čini i bolešću oksidativnog stresa. FA ćelije ispoljavaju veliku osetljivost na DNK klastogene agense, dok su podaci o njihovoj osetljivosti na jonizujuće zračenje kontradiktorni. Cilj ove studije je ispitivanje in vitro radioosetljivosti FA homozigota i heterozigota i utvrđivanje uticaja antioksidativnih enzima na ukupan radiobiološki odgovor ćelija. FA pacijenti ispoljavaju značajno sniženje aktivnosti katalaza, sniženu vrednost superoksid dismutaza i povećani bazalni nivo mikronukleusa u odnosu na kontrolu. Radiorezistentni odgovor na jonizujuće zračenje utvrđen je kod većine pacijenata i praćen je značajno većim procentom zračenjem indukovane apoptoze. Utvrđena je negativna korelacija između aktivnosti katalaza i procenta apoptotskih ćelija. Heterozigoti-roditelji imaju visok procenat zračenjem indukovane apoptoze koja je kod nosioca-majki praćena značajnim sniženjem aktivnosti katalaza. Rezultati pokazuju da snižena vrednost katalaza značajno doprinosi ukupnom radiobiološkom odgovoru ćelija.

AB  - Telomeres consist of repeated DNA sequences and associated proteins that lie at the termini of linear chromosomes and are critical to the protection and stability of internal chromosome sequences, a function known as telomere “capping”. In capping chromosomes ends, telomeres restrict chromosome end resection by exonucleases and prevent the improper activation of checkpoint response factors and DNA damage response pathways such as homologous recombination (HR) and non-homologous end joining (NHEJ). Telomeres shorten as cell divide, but also due to action of restriction exonucleases, oxidative damage and inappropriate recombination. When telomere shorten to a critical length, they become uncapped, which can lead to permanent cell cycle arrest. The development of the “TIF” (telomere dysfunction induced foci) assay that is based on colocalization of the DNA repair factors 53BP1 and γH2AX with uncapped telomeres enables measurement of telomere uncapping in different tissues. Our aim was to investigate correlation between homologous DNA recombination processes and function of telomeres. In nine primary fibroblast cell lines, obtained from patients presenting with bone marrow failure syndrome and Fanconi anemia clinical and cellular (diepoxybutane- DEB positive) phenotype, baseline incidence of SCE, T-SCE, γH2AX and TIF were examined. The average incidence of SCE was 4.42+-0.96, ranging from 3.38 to 6.5 per cell, whereas incidence of T-SCE was 1.91+-0.81 ranging from 1 to 3.33. Baseline level of γH2AX foci was 2.27+-1.55 ranging from 0.8 to 4.2, whereas average incidence of TIF was 2.97+-1.47, ranging from 1.44 to 5 per cell. Statistically significant positive correlation between incidence of SCE and TIF was observed (0.77 p<0.05) indicating a connection between uncapped telomeres in these cells and homologous recombination, a link which should be further investigated.

AB  - Fanconi anemia (FA) is a genetic disease characterized by progressive pancytopenia and cancer susceptibility. The clinical and cellular phenotypes of Fanconi anemia are associated with a set of redox abnormalities, indicating that FA is an oxidative stress-related disorder. Fanconi anemia cells are highly sensitive to DNA clastogen agents, but their response to ionizing radiation is still unclear. The aim of this study was to evaluate the in vitro radiosensitivity of Fanconi anemia homozygotes and heterozygotes, and to assess the contribution of catalase and superoxide dismutase (SOD) to the overall radiobiological response of the cells. The incidence of radiation-induced lymphocyte micronuclei was used as the indicator of radiation sensitivity in vitro, whereas the activity of antioxidant enzymes was determined in erythrocytes. Patients with FA exhibited a two-fold decrease in catalase activity, accompanied by lowered activity of SOD, and increased incidence of baseline micronuclei. In the entire group of patients (with one exception), a reduced yield of radiation-induced micronuclei in lymphocytes was observed, and this was categorized as a radioresistant response. A mild radioresistant in vitro response was also observed in carrier-mothers, accompanied by reduced activity of catalase. The radiosensitivity of carrier-fathers was normal. The results of this study suggest that reduced activity of catalase is an important contributor to the radiobiological response of cells.

AB  - Fanconi anemia (FA) is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by bone-marrow failure and cancer susceptibility. Early studies pointed to the specific sensitivity of FA cells to MMC and DEB which became the tools for the current diagnostic tests for FA. Although there is the long-standing clinical impression of radiosensitivity, in vitro studies have yielded conflicting results. We exposed peripheral blood mononuclear cells of FA patients (10 subjects) and carriers (20 subjects) to γ-rays (60Co), dose of 2 Gy in vitro with aim to determine their radiosensitivity using CB micronucleus (MN) test. Incidence of spontaneous occurring chromosomal aberrations and MN in unirradiatedcontrol samples also was examined. Mean incidence of chromosomal aberrations in FA patients was 0.088±0.08; which is 3.5 fold higher than in carriers, baseline level of MN was 11.66±6.7 whereas average incidence of radiation-induced micronuclei was 122.63±95.6. Baseline level of micronuclei find in parents lymphocytes was 16.29±8.4 (fathers); 14.04±11.17 (mothers), which is 2.3 fold higher compared to common population. Radioresponse of FA lymphocyte in vitro in most cases corresponds to resistant in vitro response, (with exception of one case where radiosensitive in vitro response was observed). Incidence of spontaneously occurring chromosomal aberration highly correlates with baseline incidence of MN, number of cell carrying aberrations and radiosensitivity (r=0.81, p<0.05) Mild radioresistant in vitro response was observed in mothers lymphocytes, whereas fathers response could be described normal-as in the common population. The authors will discuss the possible explanations for resistant response of FA lymphocytes in vitro

abstract = "Fanconi anemia (FA) is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by bone-marrow failure and cancer susceptibility. Early studies pointed to the specific sensitivity of FA cells to MMC and DEB which became the tools for the current diagnostic tests for FA. Although there is the long-standing clinical impression of radiosensitivity, in vitro studies have yielded conflicting results. We exposed peripheral blood mononuclear cells of FA patients (10 subjects) and carriers (20 subjects) to γ-rays (60Co), dose of 2 Gy in vitro with aim to determine their radiosensitivity using CB micronucleus (MN) test. Incidence of spontaneous occurring chromosomal aberrations and MN in unirradiatedcontrol samples also was examined. Mean incidence of chromosomal aberrations in FA patients was 0.088±0.08; which is 3.5 fold higher than in carriers, baseline level of MN was 11.66±6.7 whereas average incidence of radiation-induced micronuclei was 122.63±95.6. Baseline level of micronuclei find in parents lymphocytes was 16.29±8.4 (fathers); 14.04±11.17 (mothers), which is 2.3 fold higher compared to common population. Radioresponse of FA lymphocyte in vitro in most cases corresponds to resistant in vitro response, (with exception of one case where radiosensitive in vitro response was observed). Incidence of spontaneously occurring chromosomal aberration highly correlates with baseline incidence of MN, number of cell carrying aberrations and radiosensitivity (r=0.81, p<0.05) Mild radioresistant in vitro response was observed in mothers lymphocytes, whereas fathers response could be described normal-as in the common population.
