Study of mutation and single nucleotide polymorphism of PDGFRbeta and SHIP gene in acute myeloid leukemia / 中华血液学杂志

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the significance of mutation and single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of class III receptor tyrosine kinases such as PDGFRbeta and SHIP in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Screening of the mutation and SNP of PDGFRbeta and SHIP by genomic PCR, RT-PCR, directly sequencing and Mass-ARRAY system was carried out in 273 AML patients.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The mutations of PDGFRbeta R685C and SHIP Q1153L were detected for the first time in AML patients. The positivity ratio was 0.73% and 0.36% respectively.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The mutations of PDGFRbeta R685C and SHIP Q1153L may contribute to leukemogenesis of AML.</p>
