No significant differences were detected between the CML group and healthy controls with respect to the distributions and numbers of genotypes and alleles in TNF-α, TGF-β1, IL-10, and IFN-γ.
Most cases of acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) (7/8 cases) and all cases of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) (n = 2), chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) (n = 5), both in chronic phase and during blast crisis, expressed the mRNA for TNF-alpha and IL-10.
