Abstract:
Objective To establish a real time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction method for detecting WT1 and to understand the expression levels of WT1 in acute lymphocytic leukemia(ALL) of children through examining peripheral blood of leukemia children.Methods Thirty ALL patients, 13 non-leukemia Children and 18 normal children were included in this study. The method of real time RT-PCR detecting the expression of WT1 was established. The expression levels of WT1 gene were tested by this method.Results The expression levels of WT1 in 13 ALL with newly diagnosed patients were (105-106)copies/?g RNA, 12 with partial remission were (102-104)copies/?g RNA and 12 with complete remission were (0-102)copies/?g RNA.Conclusions Significant expression levels of WT1 in ALL are higher than those in non-leukemias and normal children.WT1 could be a marker for detecting minimal residual disease and evaluating therapy efficacy in ALL.
