Abstract:

Breast cancer resistance protein BCRP, belonging to superfamily G of the adenosine triphosphate-binding cassette (ABC) transporters, is an efflux pump and plays a critical role in protecting cells against xenobiotics and toxic compounds including (pro)carcinogens. BCRP is expressed in many tissues, including hematopoietic stem cells. Genetic variants such as single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) can change the gene expression and/or reduce their products’ activity which may affect an individual’s susceptibility to xenobiotics and the development of carcinoma. These changes may affect the exposure of blood cells to toxic compounds, which increases the risk of multiple myeloma. The aim of this study was to determine polymorphisms at positions G34A and C421A of the ABCG2 gene in multiple myeloma in the Polish population for the first time
