Popis: | The purpose of the present study was to investigate the prognostic significance of murine double minute 4 (MDM4) in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and to characterize the role of MDM4 in the p53 pathway. Full‐length MDM4 (FL‐MDM4), a splicing variant of MDM4 (S‐MDM4) and murine double minute 2 (MDM2) mRNA expressions were detected by quantitative PCR in 140 Chinese patients with CLL, and primary CLL cells were treated in vitro with either fludarabine or Nutlin‐3 to explore the interaction between p53 status and MDM4 or MDM2 expression. A marked increase of FL‐MDM4 and S‐MDM4 expressions were observed in the CLL patients with p53 aberrations (deletion and/or mutation) (P = 0.024, P |
