FAQ
What tests are used to detect genetic abnormalities in pre-natal stage?
Besides the traditional chromosome G-banding technique, there are many advanced molecular diagnostic tests available for testing genetic changes at pre-natal stage like: Fluorescent InSitu Hybridization, Chromosomal Microarray, SNP analysis, PCR for DNA fragment size analysis, etc.
What is cytogenetic abnormality?
The change that occurs at the DNA/genetic level is called cytogenetic abnormality. Cytogenetics utilises advanced laboratory techniques to identify small changes in chromosomes that contain genes. Any chromosomal abnormalities like broken, missing, rearranged, or extra chromosomes can be detected by cytogenetic techniques. Some common cytogenetic abnormality-associated diseases are multiple myeloma, Down’s syndrome, chronic lymphocytic leukaemia etc.
What is multiple myeloma?
Multiple myeloma is one of the most common cancers of B-cells in blood that arises due to chromosome 17p deletion. The gene involved is TP53 that is one most important risk factor for this disease. The disease characterised by:
- Bone-pain
- Weight-loss
- Fatigue
- Numbness in legs
- Anaemia
- Prone to infections
- Hypercalcemia
- Episodes of bleeding

Chromosome 17p Deletion - FISH Test in Dakor
x
Sterling Accuris Diagnostics offers the Chromosome 17p deletion - FISH Test in Dakor to detect cytogenetic abnormalities on chromosome 17 and related disease like chronic lymphocytic leukaemia.
Overview of the Chromosome 17p deletion - FISH Test (By Fluorescent In Situ Hybridization)
The Chromosome 17p deletion - FISH Test is performed to detect the loss of DNA segments from the short arm of chromosome 17. Chromosome 17 contains the code for the TP53 gene, a tumour suppressor gene. It is involved in diverse cellular processes and plays an essential role in cell division and in damaged DNA repair. The deletion in chromosome 17p can result in severe diseases like multiple myeloma, chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL), acute lymphocytic leukaemia, etc.
Sterling Accuris Diagnostics offers an accurate Chromosome 17p deletion - FISH Test in Dakor.
Why And When Is A Chromosome 17p deletion - FISH Test Done?
The Chromosome 17p deletion - FISH Test is a frequent event in several malignancies like leukaemia, myeloma, etc. This test is done at both the pre-natal and post-natal stage. At pre-natal stage, it is particularly referred for high risk conditions, and at the post-natal stage to detect the reasons for developmental delays.
A doctor may recommend the test when a person shows following the symptoms:
Pre-natal stage:
- More than 40 years of the pregnant women
- One or more past miscarriage
- Slow foetal growth
- Foetal anomalies detected by ultrasound
Postnatal stage:
- Developmental delays
- Heart defect
- Reduced muscle growth
- Atypical facial character
Chromosome 17p deletion - FISH Test: Main Highlights
- Instructions: Fasting is not required
- Recommended age group: All age groups
- Sample type: Blood sample in EDTA tube
How to interpret the Chromosome 17p deletion - FISH Test Report
The Chromosome 17p deletion - FISH Test is done with a technique called Fluorescent InSitu Hybridization (FISH). In this technique fluorescently labelled probes bind with single stranded sample DNA/RNA. The samples are then subjected for fluorescence microscopic analysis to identify the deletion chromosome 17p region.
The fluorescent intensity after is read as output given as:
- Normal- 2 orange and 2 green signals are captured/visualised
- Chromosome 17p deletion – 1 orange and 2 green signals are captured/visualised
