What Are the Causes of Non Hodgkins Lymphoma?
Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, also known as non-Hodgkin lymphoma, is a kind of cancer caused by the uncontrolled growth of immune cells called lymphocytes. Normally, lymphocytes growth or death depends on a complicated system of genetic regulation. When a person has non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, this regulation of the lymphocytes breaks down, and the cells grow out of control, causing cancer. Doctors still do not fully know the causes of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, although several risk factors have been established.
