NOD2/CARD15 基因型作为急性淋巴细胞白血病和急性髓系白血病患者骨髓移植结局预后指标的潜在作用：一项系统综述

Hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (HSCT) has emerged as a groundbreaking therapeutic option for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and specific subtypes of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). The prognostic significance of the NOD2/CARD15 gene has been explored alongside various factors, encompassing diverse patient cohorts and gene variants.

Siblings and unrelated donors used for stem cell transplantation exhibit significant associations between their genetic variations and graft-versus-host disease incidence. The transplantation of stem cells for leukemia patients involves numerous considerations, including patient survival, relapse rates, disease stage, donor and recipient ages, and compatibility.

This study delved into research on the NOD2/CARD15 gene and its mutations to assess its suitability as a screening tool. A comprehensive literature search encompassing PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar articles yielded 4,840 articles. After removing duplicates and applying inclusion and exclusion criteria, we narrowed the search results to 876 articles. Subsequent screening of abstracts and titles resulted in the selection of 230 relevant articles.

Further exclusion of 198 articles unrelated to the research question led to the scrutinizing of 32 full-text articles, which were assessed against inclusion and exclusion criteria. Emphasis was placed on articles that specifically investigated the role of NOD2/CARD15 as a predictive factor for HSCT outcomes, ultimately resulting in the inclusion of 19 articles in this study. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) such as NOD2 and CARD15 have demonstrated their potential as reliable genetic markers for predicting post-transplantation relapse and disease outcomes.

Patients positive for these genetic markers have exhibited reduced overall survival and event-free survival and increased transplant-related mortality. Interventions with interferon-gamma and muramyl tripeptide phosphatidylethanolamine have been considered to mitigate the inflammatory effects of these SNPs, thus enhancing the influence of natural killer cells on abnormal cells and potentially extending patient survival.

NOD2/CARD15 typing may aid in identifying patients at higher risk for relapse and improving their clinical outcomes after allogeneic stem cell transplant, particularly in ALL patients.

However, no remarkable change was observed in AML patients.

Additionally, this study underscores the pivotal roles of adaptive and innate immune responses and their interplay in stem cell transplant immunology.
