摘要
本研究旨在分析中国人群急性髓系白血病(acute myeloid leukemia,AML)患者死亡相关蛋白激酶(deathassociated protein kinase,DAPK)基因启动子的甲基化状况及其临床相关性。应用甲基化特异性PCR(methylation-specific PCR,MSP)技术对112例AML患者骨髓标本dapk基因甲基化状态进行检测。结果表明:13例对照组均未发生dapk基因启动子甲基化,而112例AML患者中82例(73.2%)发生dapk基因甲基化,dapk基因甲基化改变与患者的性别、年龄、白细胞、血红蛋白、血小板计数、AML分型以及染色体异常等结果均无相关性(p>0.05)。结论:dapk基因甲基化是AML中的一个常见分子事件。
This study was purposed to analyze the methylation status of death-associated protein kinase （dapk） gene promoter in Chinese patients with acute myeloid leukemia （AML） and its relationship with clinical features. The methylation-specific PCR （MSP） technique was used to detect dapk promoter methylation in bone marrow samples from 112 cases of AML. The results indicated that gene dapk promoter hypermethylation was detected in 82 cases （73.2%）, but not in 13 control group. There was no correlation of dapk gene hypermethylation with sex, age, WBC counts, platelet counts, hematologic parameters, chromosomal abnormalities and different subtypes of AML patients. It is concluded that dapk gene hypermethylation may be a common molecular event in AML.
