Genes differentially expressed in responsive and refractory acute leukemia

Front Biosci. 2006 Jan 1:11:977-82. doi: 10.2741/1854.

Abstract

DNA microarray in 22 patients with acute leukemia revealed genes which were differentially expressed. Ribosomal protein SA (RPSA), minichromosome maintenance deficient 2 (MCM2) and heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein A1 (HNRPA1) were significantly upregulated (p<0.05, t test) in refractory patients, suggesting that they may play a role in refractoriness in acute leukemia and could be biomarkers of prognosis.
