Use to assess for inherited/germline DNA variants associated with myeloid neoplasms with germline predisposition. Not intended to detect somatic variants; to assess somatic DNA variants of prognostic and/or therapeutic significance, please see Myeloid Malignancies Mutation Panel by Next Generation Sequencing (2011117). The preferred sample type is cultured skin fibroblasts.
Massively Parallel Sequencing
Varies
3-6 weeks
Cultured skin fibroblasts (preferred) or
Whole blood: Lavender (EDTA) or yellow (ACD Solution A or B). or
Skin punch biopsy: Thaw media prior to tissue inoculation. Place skin punch biopsy in a sterile, screw-top container filled with tissue culture transport medium (ARUP Supply #32788). Available online through eSupply using ARUP Connect. If cytogenetics tissue media is not available, collect in plain RPMI, Hanks solution, sterile saline, or ringers.
Cultured skin fibroblasts: 2 T-25 flasks at 80 percent confluency, Fill flasks with culture media. Backup cultures must be maintained at the client's institution until testing is complete.
Skin punch biopsy DO NOT FREEZE. Do not place in formalin. Transport a 4 mm skin biopsy in a sterile, screw-top container filled with tissue transport medium.
Whole blood: Transport 3 mL whole blood. (Min: 1.5 mL)
Cultured skin fibroblasts: Critical room temperature. Must be received within 48 hours of shipment due to lability of cells
Skin punch biopsy: Room temperature
Whole Blood: Refrigerated.
Grossly hemolyzed or frozen specimens; formalin fixed tissue, FFPE
Cultured skin fibroblast backup cultures must be retained at the client's institution until testing is complete. Skin punch biopsies can be cultured at ARUP at an additional charge.
Cultured skin fibroblasts: Ambient: 48 hours; Refrigerated: Unacceptable; Frozen: Unacceptable,
Skin punch biopsy: Ambient: 48 hours; Refrigerated: 48 hours; Frozen: Unacceptable
Whole blood: Ambient: 72 hours; Refrigerated: 1 week; Frozen: Unacceptable
