In the subgroup analysis, according to the type of leukemia, significant association was found between MDR1 G2677T polymorphism and myeloid leukemia but not lymphoblastic leukemia (TT vs. GG: OR = 0.66, 95% CI = 0.46-0.95, P = 0.026; TT vs.
To investigate their possible roles in disease susceptibility and some disease characteristics we genotyped C3435T and G2677T/A polymorphisms in multidrug resistance-1 (MDR1) gene with a single base extension method and the G34A and C421A polymorphisms of the breast cancer resistance protein gene with an allelic discrimination system in 396 children with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) and 192 control patients.
Three single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the ABCB1 gene (rs 3213619 T129C, rs 2032582 G2677T and rs1045642 C3435T) were analysed in 70 Saudi children with ALL and 60 control subjects.
