The NQO1 C609T polymorphism is associated with risk of secondary malignant neoplasms after treatment for childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia: a matched-pair analysis from the ALL-BFM study group.

چکیده
In a matched-pair study, we analyzed the association of a phenotypically relevant NQO1 polymorphism (C609T) with risk of secondary malignant neoplasms (SMN) after treatment for childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Patients carrying a variant low-activity NQO1 allele had a significantly increased risk of developing a SMN. The observed effect was restricted to solid tumors.

Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is a malignant transformation and proliferation of lymphoid progenitor cells in bone marrow and blood, which is mainly found in children. Thiopurine methyltransferase (TPMT) is a thiopurine drug metabolizer enzyme that is prescribed for the treatment of ALL. Several single nucleotide polymorphisms in the TPMT gene have been reported to be associated with the d...

NAD(P)H: quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1) is an endogenous cellular defence mechanism against several carcinogenic quinones derived from cigarette smoke. NQO1 C609T polymorphism is a strong determinant of NQO1 structure and function. The people with mutant allele for this polymorphism has significantly reduced NQO1 activity. In this study, we tried to evaluate the risk of lung cancer as...

Introduction: Evidence suggests that Lysosome associated protein transmembrane 4B (LAPTM4B) contributes to the risk of numerous cancers. The present study aimed to find out the impact of LAPTM4B polymorphism on the risk of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) in the southeastern Iranian population. Materials and Methods: A total of 230 subjects including 110 children diagnosed with ALL ...
متن کاملNQO1 C609T polymorphism in distinct entities of pediatric hematologic neoplasms.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1) is an enzyme that protects cells against mutagenicity from free radicals and toxic oxygen metabolites. The gene coding for NQO1 is subject to a genetic polymorphism at nucleotide position 609 (C-->T) of the human NQO1 cDNA. Heterozygous individuals (C/T) have intermediate activity and homozygotes for the variant allele (T/T) are ...

Secondary Malignant Neoplasm(SMN) is one of the late effects of childhood cancer. Among secondary malignancies, acute myeloid leukemia(AML) is the most common and life-threatening neoplasm. Secondary acute lymphoblastic leukemia(ALL) is rare and only 10% of SMN is ALL. Patients with Wilm’s tumor are not protected from the secondary cancers after the primary diagnosis. Among patients...
