Mycosis Fungoides and Sézary Syndrome
The development of array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) techniques has allowed to characterize more precisely several human neoplasms with the aim of providing prognostic markers and targets for directed therapeutic intervention. Recently, several studies applying aCGH technique have been reported in which an exhaustive genetic characterization of mycosis fungoides (MF) and Sézary syndrome (SS) has been performed. Regarding MF, a genomic profile characterized by the gains of 7q, 17q, and 8q and losses in 9p, 13q, 17p, and 10q has been described. In SS, the most common abnormalities are gains in 8q and 17q ...

Array-CGH Analysis of Cutaneous Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphoma
This chapter describes a study in which the pattern of numerical chromosomal alterations in cutaneous anaplastic large cell lymphoma (C-ALCL) tumor samples was defined using array-based comparative genomic hybridization (CGH). First, the array-based CGH technique applied is outlined in detail. Next, its application in the analysis of C-ALCL tumor specimens is described. This approach resulted in the identification of highly recurrent chromosomal alterations in C-ALCL that include gain of 7q31 and loss on 6q16-6q21 and 13q34, each affecting 45% of the patients. The pattern characteristic of C-ALCL differs markedly from chro...
