Overview
Leukemia is a malignancy of the blood and bone marrow characterised by clonal proliferation of abnormal haematopoietic cells, most often of the white-cell lineages, which crowd out normal haematopoiesis and impair immune function, oxygen transport, and clotting. It is classified by lineage into myeloid and lymphoid forms and by tempo into acute and chronic disease, with pathogenesis involving chromosomal translocations, gene fusions, and somatic mutations such as JAK2 V617F and BCR-ABL. Diagnosis and monitoring rely on morphology, cytogenetics, molecular and immunophenotypic analysis, and treatment spans chemotherapy, targeted agents, and stem-cell transplantation. The research collected here reflects this scope through studies of the evolution of JAK2 V617F-negative myelofibrosis into Philadelphia-positive chronic myeloid leukemia, necrotic lesions in acute myeloid leukemia with neutropenia, neuropilin-1/CD304 expression in leukemogenesis, a novel chromosomal abnormality in pediatric precursor-B acute lymphoblastic leukemia, medication adherence in chronic myeloid leukaemia, and complications such as invasive aspergillosis and post-transplant immune thrombocytopenia. Together they span cytogenetics, molecular pathogenesis, clinical management, and supportive care. The journal publishes peer-reviewed research on the biology, diagnosis, and treatment of leukemia and related haematological malignancies.
