DNA Repair Genes Polymorphisms: Impact on Acute Myeloid Leukemia Patients Outcome.

ABSTRACT:

Background

ATM; XRCC6 and LIG4 genes play an important role in repairing the double-strand DNA breaks and maintaining the genome stability. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in these genes could affect these genes expression and function. The aim of this study was to address the effect of SNP of the DNA repairing genes on corresponding  gene expression as well as AML patient's outcome.

Subjects and methods

This is cross sectional study included 95 newly diagnosed AML patients. For all subjects included in our study SNPs  and expression of ATM (rs189037G>A), XRCC6 (rs2267437C>G) and LIG4 (rs1805388C>T) genes were evaluated by RFLP and real time PCR.

Results

The following SNPs in ATM (AA); XRCC6 (GG); and LIG4 (TT) are associated with down regulation of the corresp
