Genetic Variation of Costimulatory Molecules, Including Cytotoxic T-Lymphocyte Antigen 4, Inducible T-Cell Costimulator, Cluster Differentiation 28, and Programmed Cell Death 1 Genes, in Iranian Patients With Leukemia.

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: There are limited studies about the possible relationship between genetic variations of costimulatory genes and susceptibility to hematologic malignancies like leukemia and lymphoma. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This cross-sectional study included 59 leukemia patients. The polymorphisms of costimulatory molecules, including the CTLA-4 gene (-318 C/T, -1722 T/C, -1661 A/G, +49 A/G), PD-1 gene (1.3 A/G, 1.9...
