[Expression of SDF-1alpha and its receptor CXCR4 in acute leukemias and their relationship with extramedullary infiltration].

The study was aimed to explore the expression of stromal cell derived factor-1alpha (SDF-1alpha) and its receptor CXCR4, and their relationship with the extramedullary infiltration in acute lymphoblastic, grannulocytic and monocytic leukemia. 66 cases of acute leukemia included 31 cases of acute lymphoblatic leukemia (ALL), 20 cases of acute grannulocytic leukemia (M(2)) and 15 cases of acute monocytic leukemia (M(4)+M(5)). There were 41 cases with extramedullary infiltration and 25 cases without-extramedullary infiltration. Enzyme-linked immunoabsorbent assay (ELISA) and flow cytometry were used to determine expression of SDF-1alpha and CXCR4 respectively on leukemia cells in peripheral blood and bone marrow of different groups. The results showed that average plasma level of SDF-1alpha in the ALL, M(4)+M(5), M(2) patients and the normal control were 1317.87 +/- 220.76, 1339.79 +/- 187.06, 1063.70 +/- 190.74, 1908.34 +/- 135.55 (pg/ml) respectively. The average levels in the ALL, M(4)+M(5) and M(2) patients groups were lower than those in normal control group. Both levels in ALL and M(4)+M(5) patient groups were higher than that in M(2) patient group. The average levels of SDF-1alpha in patient group with extramedullary infiltration and patient groups without-extramedullary infiltration were 1252.49 +/- 263.12, 1234.91 +/- 185.50 (pg/ml) respectively. The former seemed as if higher than the latter, but without statistical significance. The MFI of CXCR4 expression in ALL, M(4)+M(5), M(2) patient group were 78.47 +/- 33.96, 67.21 +/- 24.29, 41.66 +/- 17.18, respectively. CXCR4 expression in ALL and M(4)+M(5) patient groups were higher than that in M(2) patient group (P > 0.05). There was no significant difference between the ALL and M(4)+M(5) patient group (P > 0.05). The MFI of CXCR4 expression in patients with extramedullary infiltration and patients without extramedullary infiltration were 81.72 +/- 27.63, 36.94 +/- 11.86 respectively. The former was higher than the latter (P < 0.05). It is concluded that the higher expression of CXCR4 on acute lymphoblatic and monocytic leukemia cells may be one of the molecular mechanisms of extramedullary infiltration in both kinds of leukemia. The average plasma levels of SDF-1alpha decreased in leukemia patients and this decrease not related to the extramedullar infiltration, which may be due to the SDF-1alpha local expression in the organ infiltrated.
