摘要
目的:研究P15基因通过甲基化失活在骨髓增生异常综合征(MDS)发病中的作用。方法:用甲基化敏感的限制性核酸内切酶消化,结合聚合酶链反应(PCR)技术。结果:20例MDS患者中发现有9例(45%)存在P15基因高度甲基化,且多为高危MDS(RAEB、RAEB_(t))(P<0.05)。结论:P15基因可通过甲基化而失活,可能与部分MDS的发生及发展有关。
Objective:To explore the role of inactivation of P15 gene by means of hypermethylation in the pathogenesis of MDS.Methods:20 cases of MDS patients were studied using methylation sensitive restriction enzyme digestion and polymerase chain reaction(PCR)technique.Results:Hypermethylations of P15 gene were found in 9/20(45%)of the MDS patients,and most of them were high-risk MDS(RAEB,RAEB-t)compared with the low-risk subtype(RA,RAS)(P<0.05).Conclusion:The results indicate that P15 can be inactivated through hypermethylation in MDS,and may be involved in the initiation and developing of some MDS patients.
