THE INTERNATIONAL MYELOMA FOUNDATION SAYS NEW STUDY SUGGESTS POSSIBLE GENETIC LINK BETWEEN ENVIRONMENTAL TOXINS AND MYELOMA
|
|
The study from researchers with the IMF gene bank, Bank On A Cure®, identified several changes in DNA sequences called SNPs (single nucleotide polymorphisms) that are associated with a risk of bone disease in myeloma. Further analyses showed that many of these DNA changes may be involved with the way the human body responds to certain environmental toxins, providing a possible link between myeloma and the environment. The findings were published in the latest issue of the journal Leukemia*.
