Single-nucleotide polymorphism profiling by multimodal-targeted next-generation sequencing in methotrexate-resistant and -sensitive human osteosarcoma cell lines.

ABSTRACT: Introduction: Methotrexate (MTX) is one of the most important drugs included in the first-line protocols to treat high-grade osteosarcoma (HGOS). Although several polymorphisms have been reported to be associated with drug response or MTX-related toxicity in pharmacogenetic studies, their role in the development of MTX resistance in HGOS is still unclear. Methods: Therefore, in this study, 22 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in 4 genes of the folate metabolism, 7 MTX transporter genes, and 2 SNPs of the tumor protein p53 (TP53) gene were investigated using a custom multimodal-targeted next-generation sequencing (mmNGS) approach in 8 MTX-resistant and 12 MTX-sensitive human HGOS cell lines. The panel was validated by TaqMan genotyping assays. Results: High
