Acute promyelocytic leukemia causes
The cause of acute promyelocytic leukemia is sporadic rather than hereditary. It is caused by a reciprocal translocation between chromosomes 15 and 17, which creates a novel protein known as PML-RARA, leading to a differentiation block.[1] In general, the causes of acute leukemia of myeloid origin include chemicals, radiation, and germline mutations.
- Benzene: Benzene is a chemical liquid chemical with a sweet odor and is used in a variety of products, including heaters and other appliances. This chemical is a known cause of acute myeloid leukemia.[2] In general, benzene exposure accounts for a very small fraction of acute promyelocytic leukemia, since most cases are sporadic.
- Radiation: Ionizing radiation is known cause of acute leukemia of myeloid origin. In general, ionizing radiation accounts for a very small fraction of acute promyelocytic leukemia, since most cases are sporadic.
