French term

culot cytogénétique

French to English Medical Medical (general) FISH analysis re. ALL
Des analyses complémentaires en cytogénétique moléculaire ont été réalisées sur culot cytogénétique avec la sonde de fusion
CBFB/MYH11 et celles-ci mettent en évidence un réarrangement entre les gènes MYH11 (16p13.11) et CBFB (16q22.1) en lien avec la
t(16;16) observée au caryotype, dans 110 noyaux parmi les 120 étudiés, ainsi que dans une métaphase.

This test relates to a lady with a malignant blood disease. Karyotyping is performed using FISH. I cannot find anything for CULOT CYTOGENETIQUE, only CULOT CELLULAIRE, cell pellet. Expert help would be hugely appreciated.

!! I didn't get any hits for cytogenetic pellet originally, hence my question, but on searching for the term again I have found one hit. Thanks :)

@Heather You're right, FISH can be done in a cell pellet/precipitated cells (if it's a cell culture):

En cas d’échec du caryotype (absence de métaphases clonales), le culot de cellules fixées peut être utilisé pour analyse par FISH interphasique.

transfert de la suspension cellulaire dans un tube conique, centrifugation, élimination du surnageant et reprise du culot cellulaire dans du milieu de culture.


Having worked +20 years in labs and research, I think this is what they mean by "culot cytogenetique".

Pelleting is the most common application for centrifuges. Here, particles are concentrated as a pellet at the bottom of the centrifuge tube and separated from the remaining solution, called supernatant.

The pellet can then be analysed in various ways.
