Abstract

The current study was conducted to assess 3435C>T multidrug resistance 1 gene polymorphism and the efficacy of high dose methylprednisolone (HDMP) in childhood acute idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura patients.

METHODS:

A total of 31 childhood acute Idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura patients (17 females, 14 males) between the ages of 2 and 16years of age were included in the study. High-dose methylprednisolone was given at a dose of 30mg/kg/day for 3days and 20mg/kg/day for 4days, consecutively and intravenously. Polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism was used for the detection of C3435T single nucleotide polymorphism. Fragments obtained were 238bp to T/T genotype, 172bp and 60bp fragments to the C/C genotype, and 238bp, 172bp and 60bp to the C/T genotype.

RESULTS:

The distribution of CC, CT, and TT genotypes were 19.0%, 61.3%, and 19.4%, respectively. Both allele frequencies of C and T were the same - 50%. There was no significant difference in genotype and allele distribution between the patients with ITP and the control group (χ(2)=0.84 p=0.65, χ(2)=0.2 p=0.63, respectively). There were no significant differences in age, gender, and pre- and post-treatment platelet counts between CC, CT, and TT genotypes of the MDR gene. Response to treatment shows no significant difference between genotype and allele groups.

CONCLUSION:

In our study, there was no difference in the HDMP treatment response between MDR1 gene genotypes. However, it should be noted that this study includes a small group of patients. Our data should therefore be considered preliminary, awaiting further confirmatory studies on an expanded patient base.
