關係子句

Leukaemia is blood cancer, in which malignant white blood cells multiply inside your body's bone marrow.

白血病是一種血癌，惡性白細胞在人體骨髓中繁殖。

Usually, leukemia involves the production of abnormal white blood cells, the cells responsible for fighting infection.

通常，白血病會產生異常的白細胞，即負責抵抗感染的細胞。

However, the abnormal cells in leukemia do not function in the same way as normal white blood cells.

然而，白血病中的異常細胞與正常白細胞的功能並不相同。

The leukemia cells continue to grow and divide, eventually crowding out the normal blood cells.

白血病細胞繼續生長和分裂，最終擠掉正常血細胞。

The end result is that it becomes difficult for the body to fight infections, control bleeding and transport oxygen.

最終的結果是，人體難以抵抗感染、控制出血和輸送氧氣。

The exact cause of leukemia is not known, but it is thought to involve a combination of genetic and environmental factors.

白血病的確切病因尚不清楚，但據認為與遺傳和環境因素有關。

Leukemia cells have acquired mutations in their DNA that cause them to grow abnormally and lose functions of typical white blood cells.

白血病細胞的 DNA 發生突變，導致其異常生長，並喪失典型白細胞的功能。

It is not clear what causes these mutations to occur.

目前還不清楚這些變異發生的原因。

One type of change in the cell's DNA that is common in leukemia is known as chromosome translocation.

白血病中常見的一種細胞 DNA 變化稱為染色體易位。

In this process, a portion of one chromosome breaks off and attaches to a different chromosome.

在這一過程中，一條染色體的一部分斷裂並連接到另一條染色體上。

Most cases of leukemia are not believed to be hereditary, but certain genetic mutations and conditions can be passed along to offspring that increase the chances of developing leukemia.

大多數白血病病例被認為不會遺傳，但某些基因突變和病症會遺傳給後代，從而增加患白血病的機率。

Treatment for your leukemia depends on many factors.

白血病的治療取決於很多因素。

Your doctor determines your leukemia treatment based on your age and overall health , the type of leukemia you have and whether it has spread to other parts of your body, including the central nervous system.

醫生會根據你的年齡和總體健康狀況、白血病類型以及是否擴散到身體其他部位（包括中樞神經系統）來決定你的白血病治療方法。

Common treatments used to fight leukemia include stem cell transplant, chemotherapy and radiation therapy.

抗擊白血病的常用療法包括幹細胞移植、化療和放射線療。
