NUDT15 genetic variants and 6-mercaptopurine intolerance in pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia: an updated review
Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) accounts for nearly 30% of pediatric cancers. The maintenance treatment for ALL comprises daily oral 6-mercaptopurine (6-MP) and weekly methotrexate (MTX). 6-MP is a purine analog that can significantly improve the long-term survival of ALL patients. Despite more than 90% of 5-year survival of childhood ALL in developed countries, treatment interruption due to...
متن کاملP-121: Cloning and Expression of The Inosine Triphosphate Pyrophosphatase Gene Variant II in E.coli
Background Environmental and cellular inappropriate conditions can cause damages to cells nucleotide poll. Deamination and oxidation damages interfere with cell�s vital reactions. Inosine triphosphate pyrophosphatase (ITPA), an evolutionary conserved enzyme, plays a critical role in elimination of non-canonical bases. In human genome, the ITPA gene is located on chromosome 20 short arm and tran...
متن کاملcomparison of inosine triphosphate pyrophosphatase gene expression in chronic myelogenous leukemia patients and controls
objective: one of the most significant damages to the genetic material is oxidative deamination of dna and free nucleotides in the cell pool. incorporation of deaminated purine nucleotides such as inosine triphosphate (itp, ditp) into the dna can increase the frequency of base substitution mutation. it has been suggested that presence and accumulation of these rough nucleotides can lead to gene...
