SLC19A1 Polymorphism and Serum Methotrexate in Patients with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia
Financial support and sponsorship Nil.
Abstract
Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is a common pediatric malignancy. Methotrexate is the widely used chemotherapy for ALL. The polymorphism (rs1051296) of SLC19A1 is proposed for its effect on serum methotrexate. To explain this observation, the authors hereby studied the interrelationship between SLC19A1 polymorphism and blood methotrexate level in the patients with ALL. Here, the authors use a quantum chemistry analysis for explaining of this observation.
