Aberrant HIF1- α and SIX-1 Expression is Associated with Poor Prognosis in Acute Myeloid Leukemia Patients with Isocitrate Dehydrogenase 1 Mutations.

ABSTRACT:

Background

IDH1 mutations are common in many cancers, however, their role in promoting the Warburg effect remains elusive. This study elucidates the putative involvement of mutant-IDH1 in regulating hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF1-α) and Sine-Oculis Homeobox-1 (SIX-1) expression.

Methodology

Genetic screening was performed using the ARMS-PCR in acute myeloid leukemia (AML), brain, and breast cancer (BC) cohorts, while transcript expression was determined using qPCR. Further, a meta-analysis of risk factors associated with the R132 mutation was performed.

Results

Approximately 32% of AML and ∼60% of glioma cases were mutants, while no mutation was found in the BC cohort. 'AA' and TT' were associated with higher disease risk (OR = 12.18 & 4.68) in AML and had significant
