儿童急性白血病端粒酶活性与p15基因表达关系的研究
Relationship between telomerase activity and expression of p15INK4b gene in children with acute leukemia
摘要
Abstract
Objective To study the relationship between telomerase activity and pl5INK4b (pl5) expression in the development of childhood acute leukemia (AL). Methods Telomerase activity and p15 expression in bone marrow (BM) of 27 cases of childhood AL were evaluated using a modified telomeric repeat amplification protocol assay and reversepolymerase chain reaction respectively. For comparative analysis, BM from control donors (n = 9) were analyzed.Results At diagnosis, the telomerase activity detected in BM from AL children was significantly higher than that from control donors (34.5 ±37.0 TPG vs 2.4 ± 2.2 TPG, P < 0. 001 ). The p15 expression in BM of AL children was significantly lower than that of the controls (9.8 ± 16.2% vs 45.8 ± 16.9%, P < 0.001 ). No significant correlation was observed between p15 expression and telomerase activity (r = - 0. 01304, P > 0.05). Conclusions The telomerase upregulation and lower expression of p15 gene may play an important role in the development of AL by different mechanisms.关键词
