ABSTRACT
Introduction:
The aim of our research was to investigate changes in the molecular background of the immune response in the chronic phase (CP) of chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML) during treatment with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs).Methods:
Global gene and miRNA expression profiles were assessed using genome-wide RNA and miRNA microarray technology in bone marrow mononuclear cells. Fifty-one patients were recruited, and bone marrow samples were taken at diagnosis before treatment with TKIs and after 3, 6, and 12 months of treatment with TKIs. The largest number of upregulated genes was observed when the 0-month group (time of diagnosis) was compared to the 3-month group; 1774 genes were significantly upregulated, and 390 genes were significantly downregulated.Discussion:
Upregulated biological processes according to gene ontology (GO) classification involved basic cellular processes such as cell division, cell cycle, cell-cell adhesion, protein transport, mitotic nuclear division, apoptosis, and DNA replication. Differentially expressed miRNAs were annotated using GO classification to several immunity-related processes, including the T cell receptor signalling pathway, T cell costimulation, immune response, and inflammatory response. TKI therapy exerts a significant impact on cellular cycle processes and T-cell activation, which was proven at the molecular level.
