Description
Leukemia is a special type of cancer caused by the overproduction of abnormal white blood cells. It is the cancer of blood-forming tissues such as the bone marrow, making it difficult to fight against foreign agents. Leukemia is the 10th most common cancer accounting for 3.1% of all new cancer cases and 3.9% of all cancer deaths (National Institute of Health). The purpose of this study is to analyze the potential genetic mutations or variants associated with the leukemia phenotype.
