The expression and its clinical significances of interleukin-3 receptor alpha on Bone Marrow cells of the patients with acute myelocytic leukemia / 中国实用内科杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the expression of interleukin-3 receptor alpha(CD123)on bone marrow cells in acute myelocytic leukemia(AML)and its clinical significances.Methods By means of Fluorescence-activated cell sorer(FACS)and semi-quantity reverse transcripition polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR),the expression of IL-3R?(CD123+)protein on CD34+CD38-cells and mRNA in BMMNCs of 62 AML patients of Tianjin Medical University General Hospital from March 2008 to January 2009 and 12 normal controls were detected respectively;Then the correlation between IL-3R? and the clinical stages of AML were analyzed.Results CD34+CD38-CD123+/CD34+CD38-and IL-3R? mRNA in BMMNC of 33 deno-vo or relapsed AML patients were higher than those of control group(P
