Explain in detail the pathogenic factors of lymphoma

With the development of industrialization, environmental pollution is becoming more and more serious, which has led to the high incidence of many diseases. One of the more serious ones is lymphoma, which will cause serious harm to people's health. So what are the common causes of lymphoma ? Let's talk about the common causes of lymphoma.

Common causes of lymphoma include:

1. Chemical etiology: Among the types of chemical carcinogens, alkylating agents, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon compounds, and aromatic amine compounds are related to the etiology of lymphoma. It is not uncommon for chemical drugs to cause malignant lymphoma. For example, there have been reports of cyclophosphamide, methylbenzylhydrazine, and L-phenylalanine nitrogen mustard causing malignant lymphoma. In agricultural production, with the application of pesticides and fertilizers, the incidence and mortality of lymphoma in rural populations are constantly increasing.

2. Immune factors: Under normal circumstances, the human immune system has an immune surveillance function and can clear mutated or cancerous cells in the body. Immunodeficiency patients are prone to opportunistic infections, especially viral infections. This is a common cause of lymphoma.

3. Genetic factors: There are many reports that sometimes obvious family clustering can be seen, such as brothers and sisters may suffer from lymphoma successively or at the same time, which is also a common cause of lymphoma.

4. Physical causes (radiation): The cause of lymphoma is not only related to the dose of absorbed radiation, but also to the age at the time of exposure. The incidence of lymphoma is higher in people under 25 years old exposed to radiation than in other groups. The impact of medical radiation on the incidence of human tumors has received increasing attention, especially high-dose radiation has a promoting effect on the occurrence of human lymphoma.

The above is an explanation of the common causes of lymphoma, I hope it will be helpful to everyone. These causes of lymphoma are relatively common, and everyone can better prevent lymphoma based on these causes, which is beneficial to reducing the occurrence of lymphoma.
