Abstract
The chromosomal anomaly t(4;11) is closely related to a specific type of acute leukemia: occurrence in young children, hyperleukocytosis with a particular immunologic phenotype, and poor response to therapy. Allogeneic bone marrow (BM) transplantation has been done in a few cases. We report a case in which a complete remission was obtained after intensive therapy. Because no donor was available, an autologous BM transplantation was performed after purge ex vivo of the BM collection by Asta-Z. Relapse occurred at day 45.

Abstract
Discovery of 49 XXXXY syndrome in a six years young boy allows description of the main clinical characteristics of this disease: hypotrophy, facial anomalies, hypogenitalism, delayed speech development and oligophrenia. Radio-cubital synostosis is quite specific in this syndrome. The hypothesis of a correlation between clinical anomalies and excess of genes induced by polysomia has been suggested. We give results of five X-linked enzymatic activities: steroid sulfatase (STS) (located on the probably noninactivated segment), Hypoxanthine Guanine Phosphoribosyl Transferase (HGPRT), Glucose 6 Phosphate Déshydrogenase (G6PD), Phospho Glycerate Kinase (PGK), Alpha Galactosidase A (Alpha GAL A). Only STS activity seems to be significatively increased.

Abstract
Betaxolol, a beta selective adrenoceptor antagonist recently approved for the treatment of hypertension, was determined by monitoring in chemical ionization mode with ammonia the [MH]+ ions of the trimethylsilyl derivatives of the drug and of its internal standard [2H5)betaxolol). Its pharmacokinetic profile obtained following administration of a 20 mg oral dose was characterized by a half-life of 22 h and a bioavailability of 85%. The main acid metabolite formed by elimination of the isopropylamino group may also be determined as the methyl TMS derivative but methylation with BF3-methanol should be used with caution since it may induce the opening of the cyclopropyl group. The routine electron capture determination procedure was compared to this mass spectrometric method and an excellent correlation was found (r = 0.9974). Both procedures have the same sensitivity (1 ng ml-1). Finally it was observed that under electron impact mode betaxolol trimethylsilyl side chain rearranged to lose TMS-O-CH=CH2; this elimination was confirmed by deuterium labelling studies.

Abstract
Chromosome anomalies, structural and/or numerical changes are present in about 50% of acute non lymphoïd leukemia (ANLL). They are non-random: chromosome 8, 7, 5 and 11 being more frequently involved. Correlations between chromosomal anomalies and type of proliferation have been established: translocation t (8;21) and acute myeloblastic leukemia M2; translocation t (15;17) and acute promyelocytic leukemia M3; structural anomalies of chromosome 11 long arm and acute monoblastic leukemia M5. A relationship between prognosis and leukemic karyotype has been found. Median survival is generally longer in patients with normal karyotypes. Future studies may correlate chromosome anomalies and metabolic changes with the help of progress in gene mapping. A better knowledge will provide not only a better therapy but also a better understanding of the leukemic process.

A combination of the Ag-I staining method of the human nucleolus organizer regions (NORs) with an RHG banding method is described. This technique gives a reliable identification of each of the Ag + NOR acrocentric chromosomes. Its probable chemical nature is discussed.

Abstract
Chromosome banding techniques have been useful to define abnormal chromosomes in acute leukemia. The comparison between cases reported from different centers has been possible only with the acceptance of a universal system of classification and nomenclature for acute leukemia as well as for chromosomal rearrangements. Chromosomes abnormalities in acute leukemia are found in about 50 per cent of patients. They appear to be non random. Clinical, morphologic and cytogenetic findings have been correlated. Diagnosis and prognosis significance of chromosome abnormalities is of importance. The problem of normal or so called normal cells in 50 per cent of acute leukemia is set.

Abstract
The segregation of NORs-Ag positive and negative acrocentric chromosomes was studied with a combined staining technique (Ag-I/RHG), in a normal French population (Saint-Etienne, Loire, France). The observed frequencies of homozygous and heterozygous NOR-Ag individuals, either for each acrocentric pair or for all the pairs of acrocentric chromosomes are not statistically different from the ones expected according to Hardy-Weinberg's law. The genotypic frequencies of homozygous subjects (+/+) for each acrocentric pair are the following: 13: 0,900; 14: 0,895; 15: 0,880; 21: 0,900 and 22: 0,870. The average modal number of NOR-Ag positives for the sample is 8,58 +/- 0,81. The comparison between these results and other data from European Caucasian populations, was possible by using the same criteria of classification. The discriminative value of NOR banding polymorphisms is discussed.

Adenosine deaminase activity was within the hemizygous range, permitting regional assignment of the ADA locus to 20q13 leads to qter.

Abstract
Burkitt's lymphoma was diagnosed in male Algerian child presenting with abdominal and jaw tumours. Viral studies revealed that this non-endemic case was associated with the Epstein-Barr virus. Cytogenetic examination of tumour cells showed a complex three-way rearrangement involving chromosomes 2, 8 and 9. Our report indicates that, in Burkitt's lymphoma, not only simple but also complex translocation involving chromosome 8 may arise. This finding in a North African case emphasizes the need for more detailed study of the clinical, virological and cytogenetic features of Burkitt's lymphoma throughout the world.

Abstract
A variant translocation t(8;22)(q23;q11) has been found in tumor cells from a 19-year-old white man with an Epstein-Barr virus-associated Burkitt's lymphoma (BL). The tumor, which appeared 2 years after the patient had infectious mononucleosis, bore histopathological features characteristic of BL, although only the lymph nodes in the cervical region were involved. This case and some other recent cytogenetic observations of nonendemic BL emphasize the importance of chromosome #8 rearrangement in this B-cell-type lymphoma.

Abstract
A translocation which originated by telomeric "fusion" of X short arms, t(X;X), was found in a woman with primary amenorrhea and a phenotype corresponding partially to Turner's syndrome. Staining with acridine orange after BrdU incorporation showed the distal segments of both Xp's to be much more modified by the treatment than equivalent segments of normal late replicating X's. This could mean important inactivation of segments usually active even in late replicating X's. This functional monosomy for X would have a clinical effect similar to a true monosomy.
