Multiple drug resistance protein (MDR-1), multidrug resistance-related protein (MRP) and lung resistance protein (LRP) gene expression in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia

Abstract: Evaluation of the expression of genes for resistance to antineoplastic drugs in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia upon diagnosis, and particularly the expression of the LRP gene, may be of clinical relevance, and should be the object of prospective studies.

“…Certain relationships, for instance, between CD10 and MRD1, 23 low WBC count and MRD1, 24 in addition to CD34 and MRP1, 25 have been noted in scientific literature; nonetheless, these reports are controversial and without consistency, and in many reports the expression of these genes was found to be unrelated to the mentioned risk factors. 12,13,22,[26][27][28] One major objective of this study was to determine whether or not the expression of genes studied may be used as an independent risk factor for drug resistance at the onset of therapy. As previously mentioned, the gene profile of newly diagnosed patients is not significantly different from that of healthy individuals, while the expression is different within patients with ALL.…”

“…Although the true clinical prevalence of MDR is difficult to assess as only a minority of cancer patients are tested for the MDR phenotype, MDR is implied in most cases of non-responsive recurrence and has been clearly associated with treatment failure in many different types of cancer in patients with diverse demographics [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17]. MDR has been linked to poor prognosis and reduced survival in gastric cancer, gliomas, sarcomas, breast cancer, ovarian cancer, pancreatic cancer, and hematological malignancies, including childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia and acute myeloid leukemia [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17].…”

“…To our knowledge, this is the first investigation of the effect of the C3435T multiple drug resistance SNP in pediatric patients with ALL in Indonesia. Although chemotherapy arrests as much as 80% of childhood ALL, almost 25% of cured children will relapse [19].…”
