Abstract
Introduction: To investigate the genetic contribution of 24 GWAS-associated polymorphic gene variants on the development of children's B-lineage acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) in an ethnically homogeneous population of Kazakhs.
Methods: A study of 205 children with B-ALL and 204 healthy children was conducted. Genotyping of polymorphic loci was carried out using the TaqMan method.
Results: Significant associations (p < 0.05) with the risk of childhood B-ALL were found for twelve variants, including rs6457327 of the HLA gene, rs4251961 of the IL1RN gene, and rs1800630 of the TNF gene. Carriage of the minor allele A of the protective rs1801157 polymorphism A of the CXCL12 gene reduces the risk of B-ALL in the Kazakh population by 40%.
Discussion: The results reveal significant associations of polymorphic genetic variants, which can serve as a basis for the development of effective methods for predicting the risk of B-ALL, early diagnosis, and timely treatment.
期刊介绍:
Fetal and Pediatric Pathology is an established bimonthly international journal that publishes data on diseases of the developing embryo, newborns, children, and adolescents. The journal publishes original and review articles and reportable case reports.
The expanded scope of the journal encompasses molecular basis of genetic disorders; molecular basis of diseases that lead to implantation failures; molecular basis of abnormal placentation; placentology and molecular basis of habitual abortion; intrauterine development and molecular basis of embryonic death; pathogenisis and etiologic factors involved in sudden infant death syndrome; the underlying molecular basis, and pathogenesis of diseases that lead to morbidity and mortality in newborns; prenatal, perinatal, and pediatric diseases and molecular basis of diseases of childhood including solid tumors and tumors of the hematopoietic system; and experimental and molecular pathology.
