The authors studied a number of original genetic phenotypical markers in leukemia patients. They suggested the existence of polygenic impacts involved in leukemia genesis. Hence, leukemias may be linked with some gene markers. It was established that leukemic subjects had phenotypical frequencies of cerebral hemispheric and sighting eye asymmetry, density of ear wax, hair color significantly different from those in the population. Hence, the above markers may indicate individual predisposition to leukemias.
