Genetic and regulatory mechanism of susceptibility to high-hyperdiploid acute lymphoblastic leukaemia at 10q21.2

Risk for the paediatric cancer high-hyperdiploid acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (HD-ALL) has been associated with genetic variants at 10q21.2. Here, the authors characterize this region, establishing a single risk variant and showing its role in dysregulated expression ofARID5B.
