Multidrug resistance represents a major obstacle in the chemotherapeutic treatment of acute leukemia (AL). Adenosine triphosphate ATP - binding cassette (ABCB5) and multidrug resistance (MDR1) genes are integral membrane proteins belonging to ATP - binding cassette transporters superfamily. The present work aimed to investigate the impact of ABCB5 and MDR1 genes expression on the response to chemotherapy in a cohort of Egyptian acute leukemia patients. The study included 90 patients; 53 AML cases and 37 ALL cases in addition to 20 healthy volunteers as controls. Quantitative assessment of MDR1 and ABCB5 genes expression was performed by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction qPCR
