Polymorphisms of MTHFR and MTR genes are not related to susceptibility to childhood ALL in north India

Background:Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most worldwide common type of childhood cancer. Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) and 5-methyltetrahydrofolate-homocysteine methyltransferase (MTR) participate in folate pathways and are known as critical factors for DNA integrity as wel...

Results: No statistically significant differences were observed for different genotypes between patients and controls (p>0.05). Significant difference for the risk of ALL in individuals having genotype of MTHFR 677TT (OR=0.61, 95% CI=0.21–1.77) and MTHFR 1298CC (OR=0.56, 95% CI=0.18–1.68) was not observed. The correlation of SNP of MTR gene and risk of ALL was not observed, too.
