Cell Cycle Regulatory Gene Study in Patients With Myeloproliferative Disorders
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This study involves observing the level of cell cycle regulatory gene in patients with myeloproliferative disorders(MPD). These disorders include polycythemia vera (PV), essential thrombocythemia (ET), myelofibrosis (MF) and chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). The abnormal blood and/or bone marrow cells, or materials derived from these abnormal cells, like DNA, RNA, protein or plasma will be used in laboratory studies.
Cell cycle regulatory protein such as cyclins, cyclin-dependent kinases(Cdks) and Cdk inhibitors(CKIs) play indispensable roles in processes such as transcription, metabolism and stem cell self-renewal. MPD are a group of diseases characterized by abnormally increased proliferation of erythroid, megakaryocytic, or granulocytic cells. The pathogenesis was still unclear. Detecting the level of cell cycle regulatory protein will be useful to look for the possible role in MPD and better understand the cause of MPD.

In this study, the cell cycle regulatory message RNA and protein from patients' and healthy volunteers' bone marrow and peripheral blood will be extracted and quantified by real time polymerase chain reaction and western blot. The different level of cell cycle regulatory gene between patients and volunteers and the relationship between the level and patients' clinical characteristics such as age, gender, type of disease will be analysed by SPSS.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- quantified the level of CDK, CCP, PLK by real time PCR and westen blot [two years]
The cell cycle regulatory message RNA and protein from patients' and healthy volunteers' bone marrow and peripheral blood will be extracted and quantified by real time polymerase chain reaction and western blot. The cell cycle regulatory genes contain CDK ,CDKI, Ser/Thr protein kinase, ATP/GTP binding protein-like and so on.
- age of MPN patients and volunteers [two years]
observe the age of MPN patients and volunteers, and analyze the correlation between the level and the age of patients.
- gender of MPN patients and volunteers [two years]
observe different level of cell cycle regulatory gene between male patients and femal patients.
- count of peripheral blood cells [two years]
observe the count of peripheral blood cells, including the white blood cell, red blood cell and platelet.
