Polymorphism of ITGA4 Gene in Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia

June 17, 2024 updated by: Amer Ahmed Youssef Abdalkareem, Sohag University

Polymorphism of the ITGA4 Gene (Integrin Subunit Alpha 4) in Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia

Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is a clonal lymphoproliferative disorder that is characterized by heterogeneous presentation at the clinical and molecular levels. ITGA4 protein has been found to be deregulated in CLL with adverse clinical outcome. ITGA4 gene (CD49d) encodes a member of the integrin alpha chain family of proteins and is considered a negative prognosticator in CLL with aggressive course and short time to treatment.

The aim of the study:

is to investigate ITGA4 gene expression pattern in CLL.

Time Frame
ITGA4 gene expression pattern in chronic lymphocytic leukemia
Time Frame: 1 year following the startpoint of the study
Detection of ITGA4 gene expression in blood samples in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia, Briefly, total RNA and genomic DNA extraction from fresh peripheral blood samples by Real-time -RT-polymerase chain reaction system (RT-PCR) will be carried out. Rate of ITGA4 gene expression will be recorded.
