Abstract:
Background & Objective
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is the third most prevalent type of cancer in Iran and fifth in the world, which includes 8% of the whole type of cancers. The Janus kinase and transcription activator (JAK-STAT) pathway plays pivotal roles in the regulation of cell proliferation, differentiation, migration and apoptosis, which is closely related with the development of some hematological diseases. The JAK-STAT is an important signaling pathway which abnormal inactivation of that is involved in leukemia development. One the important gene in this signaling pathway is JAK2 and the purpose of this study was to evaluate the JAK2 gene expression in AML patients and compare it with control group.
Materials & methods
In this case-control study, blood sample from 30 AML patients admitted to Mirzakochak Khan Jangli Hospiyal, Tehran in 1395 and 20 healthy individual as control were collected. RNA was extracted and after cDNA synthesis, the expression of JAK2 gene was evaluated using Real time PCR (ΔΔCT computational). Statistical analysis was performed software Graphpad prism 6, using t-test and P<0.05 was considered significant.
Results
The results showed there was a statistically significant association between increasing in JAK2 gene expression in patients compared to the control group (P=0.0001). While no correlation was observed between the age (P=0.753) and sex (P=0.494) of patients with JAK2 gene up regulation in the studied population.
Conclusion
Investigating the rate of JAK2 gene expression, can play a significant role in the precaution of patients afflicted with AML.
