What are Types of Leukemia cancer

Leukemia cancer is classified into four types. The categories of leukemia cancer depends upon many complicated factors. This article explains that what is leukemia and how it is grouped into sub-categories. Here we will only have high level idea behind different categories.

Leukemia is usually caused by irregular production of immature blood cells. The abnormal cells are developed at massive speed and with the passage of time, these abnormal cells crowd out most of the normal blood cells in the body. Lack of white cells, red blood cells and platelets causes various complications and damage to body and may turn to be fatal for body health.

All type of  blood cells including red, white cells and platelets in bone marrow are produced from stem cells. There are two main types of stem cells including Lymphoid and Myeloid cells. Myeloid cells are fundamental type of red cells and platelets. Myeloid cells are developed into red blood cells and platelets. White blood cells can be categorized into many sub types like T-cells, NK-cells and B-cells. Few types of white cells are produced by myeloid source and other are produced from lymphoid linage. The cancer which gets developed due to white cells produced from myeloid source is known as myelogenous leukemia cancer. Myelogenous leukemia caused by lymphoid cells is also termed as lymphocytic leukemia.

Irregularity in cells is found in two stages. The stages are acute and chronic. If the cells development is at very initial stage and cells are less mature, the cancer is said acute leukemia. And if the cells are developed to some more extend but still immature then the caused leukemia is chronic leukemia. Including this factors leukemia has following four types.

• Acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL)
• Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL)
• Acute myelogenous leukemia (AML)
• Chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML)

All these types similar type of  leukemia symptoms. Of the four types,  Acute lymphocytic leukemia is mostly common in children while other three types are mostly seen in adult.

Basic Information about Hepatitis

Hepatitis is viral disease. The diseases caused by penetration of virus in human body are known as viral diseases. Hepatitis virus effects our liver and in worst case, liver may damage that may turn out to be very fatal. Liver is one of the most import organs.

Hepatitis A infection is not much serious and body recovers itself without any medication. Hepatitis B and C are dangerous and should be given more attention.
Hepatitis usually spreads from blood contact and also from contaminated water or food of infected person. It may also transfer with sexual contact with infected person.
 All types of hepatitis show somewhat common symptoms. Often hepatitis virus does not cause any visible hepatitis symptoms. It may remain in body for years without showing any serious symptoms.  Often, it is detected in normal health check activity thorough a medical test.

What is Leukemia | Body blood Cells

Our blood consists of cells and plasma. Plasma is some sort of liquid. Blood cells float in this plasma. Blood cells can be divided into three type, White blood cells, Red blood cells and platelets. Each cell has its specific role. White blood cells are part of our immune system. If somehow white blood cells are destroyed or count of white blood is decreased, our body defense system is affected and our body is exposed to various diseases. Red blood cells carry oxygen to lungs and other tissues of body. Lack of red cells is very dangerous and causes various diseases like anemia.  Platelets help in blood clotting. Without platelets too much bleeding may occur.

 Blood cells are produced in bone marrow. Blood cells production includes several stages. At some stage, due to some problem the production of blood cells becomes uncontrollable. Mostly this problem occurs with white cells.  As a result, abnormal white cells are produced. These abnormal white cells last longer than normal cells. Abnormal cells do die easily. These abnormal cells replace normal blood cells. This situation is celled leukemia cancer.
Leukemia Symptoms include flu, night sweats, tiredness and red spots on body, weight loss, pale skin color and headaches.
