Abstract
Chromosome 7 abnormalities are the most common cytogenetic alterations found in myeloid malignancies. Myeloid malignancies exhibiting monosomy 7/del (7q) have been confirmed to associate with high susceptibility to infections, poor response to chemotherapy, and short survival time, so speculating that chromosome 7 has important tumor suppressor genes. Commonly deleted segments (such as 7q22) of chromosome 7 have been identified by FISH and other technologies. Genes (EZH2, MLL5, DOCK4, SAMD9L/SAMD9) located in commonly deleted segments of 7q have been cloned and characterized along with the advance of molecular biology.This review summaries the current advancement about myeloid malignancies associated with monosomy7/del(7q).
