XL FOXO1 BA

Katalogové číslo: D-6034-100-OG
Značení: Zelená Oranžová
Velikost balení: 100 µl

XL FOXO1 BA is designed as a break apart probe. The green labeled probe hybridizes proximal to the breakpoint in the FOXO1 gene region at 13q14, the orange labeled probe hybridizes distal to the breakpoint.

This probe is intended for methanol/acetic-acid fixed cells and tissue sections.


Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) is a relatively rare cancer type but it is the most common soft tissue sarcoma in children and adolescents. The histopathological classification includes several subtypes, the embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma (ERMS) and the alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma (ARMS) are the most common variants, in the order of their occurrence. ARMS is associated with a worse outcome and is characterized by the two reciprocal translocations t(2;13)(q35;q14) and t(1;13) (p36;q14), affecting the FOXO1 gene region and PAX3 or PAX7 respectively, in about 80% of cases. The result is an in-frame fusion of the PAX DNA binding domain with the transcriptional active domain of FOXO1 generating a highly potent chimeric activator for PAX target genes. Patients harboring FOXO1-PAX3/7 fusions have an inferior event free survival compared to patients without translocation, suggesting that the molecular status in RMS provides valuable prognostic information.
