作者应用筑巢式逆转录/多聚酶链反应(RT-PCR)对34例儿童急性早幼粒细胞白血病(APL,M3)患者进行PML-RARa融合基因的检测,发现18例初发患者标本中均有融合基因转录本;13例经全反式维甲酸(ATRA)诱导缓解(CR)后的患者中,12例仍可检测到融合基因的表达;同时对16例巩固化疗后的患者进行微量残留病(MRD)的检测:8例融合基因持续阴性或未次阴性的患者,除l例不久复发外,余均处于良好的CR状态;而8例融合基因持续阳性或未次阳性的患者,7例已复发,其中3例分别是在PCR阳性结果后3,3及4个月复发的。以上结果表明PML-RARa基因检测在儿童APL的诊断,疗效评价及MRD监测中同样是一个快速、准确且灵敏的方法。
The authors used nested reverse transcription / polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) 34 cases of children with acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL, M3) patients with PML-RARa fusion gene was detected in 18 cases of primary patients were There were fusion gene transcripts; of the 13 patients with CR induced by all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA), the expression of fusion gene was still detected in 12 cases; and 16 patients after consolidation chemotherapy Disease (MRD) detection: 8 patients with persistent or sub-negative fusion gene in patients with l cases of recurrence, the remaining were in good CR status; and 8 cases of continuous or no fusion gene fusion positive patients, 7 Cases have recurred, with 3 of them recurring at 3, 3, and 4 months after PCR-positive results, respectively. The above results show that PML-RARa gene detection is also a fast, accurate and sensitive method in the diagnosis, curative effect evaluation and MRD monitoring of children APL.
