Abstract


To study the associative relation of polymorphic HLA gene variants and BCR/ABL1 transcript types in patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) 87 CML patients were examined. 42 patients had e13a2 BCR/ABL1 transcript and 45 patients had e14a2 BCR/ABL1 transcript. The prevalence of the genes allelic variants of major histocompatibility complex was analyzed and the association coefficients for the disease risk depending on the presence of certain types of BCR/ABL1 transcripts were calculated.
Unconditional markers of increased risk of CML (HLA-DRB1*11) and markers of resistance to CML (HLA-A*03) were highlighted. The allele frequencies of HLA-A*03, HLA-A*68, HLA-B*08, HLA-B*15, HLA-B*40, HLA-DRB1*04, DQB1*06 were significantly reduced and allele frequencies of HLA-DRB1*12 and DRB1*11 were increased in patients with the e13a2 transcript compared to healthy people. The allele frequencies of HLA-A*03, HLA-A*11, HLA-B*08, HLA-B*14, HLA-B*40, HLA-DRB1*04 and DQB1* 03 were significantly reduced and the allele frequency of HLA-DRB1*11 was significantly increased in patients with e14a2 transcript compared to healthy persons. Thus, the individual analysis of the complex of fusion proteins e13a2 and e14a2 and HLA alleles in CML patients could indicate the additive effect of both molecular structures joint carrier for CML developing risk.
