Global Leukaemia Therapeutics Market

Leukaemia is the cancer of blood cells. Blood cells originate from HSCs, hematopoietic stem cells, in the bone marrow. Thereafter they undergo maturation process called hematopoiesis. Multipotent hematopoietic stem cells often undergo a process of differentiation while in maturation stage to give rise to progenitor cells of myeloid and lymphoid origin. These Myeloid cells include neutrophils, basophils, monocytes, macrophages, erythrocytes, dendritic cells, eosinophils, and megakaryocytes or platelets. While, Lymphoid cells include B cells, T cells and natural killer cells.

Normally, the blood forming cells in the bone marrow produce leukocytes, that protects against viruses and bacteria. If these leukocytes get damaged and if they are left untreated they get accumulated in the body and invade in other parts like liver, spleen and central nervous system, hence damaging the entire body. The main reasons causing leukaemia are ionizing radiation, smoking, prior chemotherapy and Down syndrome.
