Abstract:
Objective To study the expression and clinical significance of survivin in acute leukemia. Methods By using semi-quantitative RT-PCR technique, survivin gene expression was detected in 43 acute leukemia(AL). Results Survivin gene expression rate in the cells of AL patients at diagnosis was 69.77%(30/43). Survivin mRNA expression rate in both 18 acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL) and 25 acute nonlymphocytic leukemia(ANLL) (72.22% and 68.0% respectively) was signficantly higher than that in control group (33.33%,P0.05). Conclusions Survivin gene was highly expressed in AL patients and could be a potential target for treatment of AL.
