Host immune genetic variations influence the risk of developing acute myeloid leukaemia: results from the NuCLEAR consortium

Abstract: The purpose of this study was to conduct a two-stage case control association study including 654 acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) patients and 3477 controls ascertained through the NuCLEAR consortium to evaluate the effect of 27 immune-related single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on AML risk. In a pooled analysis of cohort studies, we found that carriers of the IL13 rs1295686A/A genotype had an increased risk of AML (P Corr = 0.0144) whereas carriers of the VEGFA rs25648T allele had a decreased risk of develop… Show more

“…Demographic characterization of the cohorts is detailed in Table 1 . Cohort 1 consisted of 665 Spanish subjects from the NuCLEAR consortium [ 31 ] comprising 309 AML patients and 356 healthy subjects. Gender balance was observed in cohort 1 (χ 2 test, p = 0.612), while age distribution was statistically different between AML cases and healthy controls (56 ± 6 and 58 ± 17 years mean age, respectively, p < 0.05).…”

“…Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are the most common type of genetic variants in humans and increasing research reports their important function in human diseases 12,13 . In AML, the AA genotype of interleukin‐13 (IL13) (rs1295686) increased the risk of AML, while IL8 (rs2227307) decreased the risk of AML 14 . The GG genotype of rs6887695 of IL‐12A decreased the survival of AML patients 15 .…”
