Přestavby genů pro imunoglobuliny a sledování minimální reziduální nemoci u B-lymfoproliferativních onemocnění. / Immunoglobulin genes rearrangement and minimal residual disease monitoring in B-lymphoproliferative disease.

Malignant lymphomas are tumors arising by clonal proliferation of lymphocytes stopped at a specific stage of differentiation. All tumor cells arising from the original clone thus share the same characteristics and that can be used in their detection. Finding a suitable molecular marker of tumor cells is an essential step not only to disease diagnosis, but also for monitoring of minimal residual disease. Minimal residual disease is defined as the subclinical disease level, which malignant cells are not detectable for conventional cytological methods during the therapy. These residual cells can cause relapse. The main goals of the diploma thesis are a detection and analysis of immunoglobulin genes rearrangement and chromosomal translocation t(11; 14) in the MTC region, and a development and optimization of RQ-PCR system for detection of minimal residual disease. Quantification of clonal rearrangement or chromosomal translocation allows the detection of minimal residual disease level in patients with malignant lymphomas. Clonal immunoglobulin genes rearrangement or characteristic chromosomal translocation were analyzed in 19 patients with malignant lymphomas. There were analyzed individual gene segments, N-region and combination variability in immunoglobulin genes rearrangement. There was developed...
