High and Low WWOX Gene Expression Levels in Acute Myeloid Leukemia - a Real Time RT-PCR Study
Clinical Laboratory
|September 19, 2019
Abstract
Background:
Although expression of WWOX was extensively studied in different tumors, WWOX gene expression in acute myeloid leukemia is not well-known or recognized.
Methods:
Fifty control donors and fifty acute myeloid leukemia patients were enrolled in this research. The levels of WWOX gene in all participants were detected by RT-qPCR.
Results:
Levels of WWOX gene in the AML group were significantly lower as compared to the control group (0.27205 ± 1.19812 vs. 10.501 ± 9.0338, respectively, p < 0.001**).
Conclusions:
Decreased expression of WWOX gene ran parallel with acute myeloid leukemia regression.
