ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the relationship between differential expression of VEGF and its receptors and clinical characteristics of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Expressions of VEGF and its receptors (Flt-1, KDR) were assayed by ELISA and RT-PCR in healthy donors(20 cases), ALL patients in remission (20 cases), with low risk (29 cases) and with high risk (10 cases). The clinical data of all the patients and volunteers enrolled in this study were collected and analyzed according to the expression of VEGF and its receptors.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The expressions of VEGF were (574.37 +/- 208.45) ng/L, (387.93 +/- 175.86) ng/L, (135.80 +/- 111.28) ng/L and (91.16 +/- 41.34) ng/L in patients with high risk, standard risk, in remission and healthy donors, respectively. Expression levels of VEGF receptors were downwards with risk grades. The clinical manifestations were also in accord with the expression levels of VEGF and its receptors.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>ALL patients with highly expressed VEGF and its receptors are usually with higher tumor burden, and refractory treatment. Detection of VEGF and its receptors might be one of prognostic marker for ALL treatment.</p>
