Abstract
Drug metabolism/disposition and transporter genes may influence predisposition or prognosis of AML (acute myeloid leukemia) patients. We analyzed polymorphisms in 3 transporters and 4 drug metabolism genes in 293 Israeli individuals (112 AML patients and 181 controls). We analyzed: ABCC3 (MRP3) C-211T; ABCG2 (BCRP) C421A; CNT1 (SLC28A1) G565A and NAT1, NAT2, and GSTT1 and GSTM1 null alleles for influence on predisposition, as well as treatment response and survival. We found that the ABCC3 C-211T polymorphism and GSTM1 null genotype have adverse prognostic significance in AML. None of the other polymorphisms studied were found to influence either predisposition or prognosis in Israeli AML patients.Entities:
