Abstract:Leukemia is a heterogeneous disorder, characterized by elevated proliferation of white blood cells. In this study, we explored the association of 17 genetic variants with leukemia patients in the Jammu and Kashmir region of north India. The variants were genotyped by using a high-throughput Agena MassARRAY platform in 758 individuals (166 cases and 592 controls). Of the 17 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) studied, five SNPs were showing significant association with the high risk of leukemia in the north … Show more
