Test Details
The MM Fish Panel is a diagnostic test used to detect specific genetic abnormalities in multiple myeloma (MM), a type of cancer that affects plasma cells in the bone marrow. The panel is designed to identify four specific genetic abnormalities associated with MM: del(11q), del(13q), IgH, and del(17p).
- del(11q): This refers to the deletion of genetic material on the long arm of chromosome 11. It is commonly associated with aggressive forms of MM and is considered a poor prognostic factor.
- del(13q): This refers to the deletion of genetic material on the long arm of chromosome 13. It is one of the most common genetic abnormalities in MM and is associated with a poor prognosis.
- IgH: Immunoglobulin heavy chain (IgH) rearrangement is a genetic abnormality that occurs when the DNA sequence of the IgH gene is disrupted. It is a common feature in MM and is used to confirm the diagnosis.
- del(17p): This refers to the deletion of genetic material on the short arm of chromosome 17. It is associated with a very poor prognosis and resistance to treatment in MM.
The MM Fish Panel uses a technique called fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) to detect these genetic abnormalities. FISH involves labeling specific DNA probes with fluorescent dyes and then hybridizing them to the patient’s cells. The probes will bind to specific regions of the chromosomes that are of interest, allowing the genetic abnormalities to be visualized under a fluorescent microscope.
The results of the MM Fish Panel can help guide treatment decisions and provide important prognostic information for patients with MM.
