The effect of methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase polymorphisms on the methotrexate toxicity in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia

Abstract: Aim: The enzyme of methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) is fundamental for folate metabolism and has two common polymorphisms (C677T and A1298G). Methotrexate, which interrupts folate metabolism, is one of the backbone drugs of pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Methotrexate inhibits the synthesis of DNA replication. Material and Method: In this study, we aimed to investigate the relationship between polymorphisms of the MTHFR gene and methotrexate toxicity. 85 children with newly diagnosed A… Show more
