There are various unidentified factors in the diet, which may predispose to molecular and chromosomal aberrations leading to
leukaemogenesis. Therefore, it is not a single risk factor, but it may be one of the risk factors which may predispose to leukaemia.

Moreover, the detection and quantification of NPM1m represents a major specific marker for the molecular monitoring of minimal residual disease (MRD) in AML, since it appears as an early initiating event in
leukaemogenesis [3, 4].

The chromosomal translocation t(15;17) generates the PML/RAR [alpha] fusion gene which plays an essential role in
leukaemogenesis. The most common abnormality in acute promyelocytic leukaemia (APL) is PML/RAR [alpha], however 2 per cent of APL can have other translocations, e.g.
