Description
Hodgkin’s Lymphoma was a variation of the known cancerous Lymphoma. It was classified by the swelling of the lymph nodes in the neck, groin, or armpits; which could be present as painless swelling or swelling that was painful to the patient. Other traditional symptoms such as fatigue, fever, chills, and weight loss were also associated with the diagnosis. There were 50 gene variants associated with generalized lymphoma, however, gene variant KLHDC8B was specifically associated with the Hodgkin’s manifestation of Lymphoma. The aforementioned gene variant was studied in order to determine the predicted expression of Hodgkin’s Lymphoma. Various online databases such as NBCI’s ClinVar and YASARA Bioscience software were used to visualize the manipulation and specification of the gene in terms of its phenotypic expression and alternations of expression based upon said manipulation.
