本研究旨在分析NPM1和FLT3-ITD突变与急性髓系白血病患者外周血白细胞数及骨髓原始细胞百分比的相关性。回顾分析我中心2009年1月至2011年12月份初治正常核型急性髓系白血病患者51例,其中男性22例,女性29例,中位年龄47岁(14-83岁)。采...本研究旨在分析NPM1和FLT3-ITD突变与急性髓系白血病患者外周血白细胞数及骨髓原始细胞百分比的相关性。回顾分析我中心2009年1月至2011年12月份初治正常核型急性髓系白血病患者51例,其中男性22例,女性29例,中位年龄47岁(14-83岁)。采用聚合酶链式反应检测NPM1及FLT3-ITD突变状态。结果表明,与无NPM1突变患者相比,突变者初诊时外周血白细胞数较多(30.7×109/L vs 8.6×109/L,P=0.002);FLT3-ITD突变患者较无突变患者具有更多的外周血白细胞数(42.38×109/L vs 11.45×109/L,P=0.033)及更高的骨髓原始细胞百分比(74.0%vs 60.25%,P=0.036)。外周血白细胞数及骨髓原始细胞百分比在NPM1、FLT3-ITD无突变组、单独NPM1突变组、单独FLT3-ITD突变组到NPM1、FLT3-ITD双突变组逐步升高(均P<0.05)。白细胞数大于12.55×109/L的患者NPM1突变率明显升高(P=0.002),大于37.85×109/L者FLT3-ITD突变率明显升高(P=0.033);原始细胞比例大于72.25%的FLT3-ITD突变率明显升高(P=0.008)。NPM1突变患者首疗程完全缓解率(CR)明显高于无突变者(78.13%vs 40.0%,χ2=4.651,P=0.031)。结论:NPM1及FLT3-ITD突变患者白细胞计数及原始细胞比例大,提示NPM1与FLT3-ITD突变均可能促进白血病细胞增殖,且二者可能具有协同效应。展开更多
