- Abstract
Objective: To detect the expression of microRNA-210(miR-210) in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia(ALL), and to evaluate the role of the joint detection of miR-210 and MRD in the prognosis and clinical treatment of pediatric ALL., Methods: Eighty-eight children diagnosed with ALL were included in the study. miR-210 was quantitatively detected by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction(RQ-PCR) in 88 ALL patients. The average Ct value of samples obtained from 5 pediatric ALL patients with long-term complete continuous remission (CCR>5 years) was used as a calibrator. The expression levels of miR-210 in newly diagnosed patients was calculated by the 2
-ΔΔCt method and presented as multiple changes compared with that of the 5 CCR patients., Results: The expression of miR-210 in the favorable prognosis group was significantly higher than that in the unfavorable prognosis group (10.64±1.5 vs 3.27±0.68)(P<0.05). Compared with the miR-210 high-expression group, poorer relapse-free survival(RFS), event-free survival(EFS) and overall survival(OS) (P all <0.001) were found in the low-expression group. Based on the expression of miR-210 and MRD, the 88 cases were divided into 3 groups. The relapse rate of miR-210-MRD high-risk group (70%) was significantly higher than that of the miR-210-MRD middle-risk group(6.25%) and miR-210-MRD low-risk group (2.1%). Kaplan-Meier survival analysis demonstrated that the miR-210-MRD high-risk group had poorer RFS, EFS and OS than those in other 2 groups (P all <0.01)., Conclusion: The expression level of miR-210 is an independent prognostic factor for pediatric ALL, and the miR-210 is a good useful indicator for predicting the relapse and induction failure of childhood ALL. Joint detection of miR-210 and MRD can help predict outcomes more precisely, thus may be used as an effective mean of determining prognosis, monitoring recurrence, and guiding treatment.- Published
