The potential role of environmentally associated DNA methylation in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukaemia subtypes

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
What's New? The rarity of acute lymphoblastic leukaemia and lack of available environmental data have made the role of environmental factors in genetic subtypes challenging to investigate. Here, the authors performed a CpG‐level analysis to investigate DNA methylation as an intermediate mechanism between environmental risk exposures and acute ...
