Abstract

PD-1 has a noteworthy function in developing acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The expression of PD-1 on effector T cells is regulated at the protein level depending on the interactions between cells. The objective of the study was to evaluate the PD-1 concentration levels and the polymorphism genetic variants (rs36084323 G/A) in Iraqi Arab patients with AML. Sanger's DNA sequencing was used, and the assessments were done by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and PD-1 gene polymorphism SNP rs36084323 G/A. The frequency of rs36084323 was significantly different between AML and control, with a lower risk for AML seen in patients with GA genotype (odds ratio; 95% confidence interval: 0.53; 0.32-0.87). PD-1 elevated AML compared to control (213.1 pg/mL vs. 178.8 pg/mL). in AML patients, there is upregulation in PD-1, which indicates that PD-1 is a possible biomarker for AML. PD-1 rs36084323 G/A may have a role in AML risk.
